Holy Mother of Bad Taste!
First off...what's up with the sleeveless look?
Second..is he color blind?
Third..is there no one in his life who can pull him aside and say "Are you on
drugs?"
I stick with my original assessment- he has no taste <eg> and he is dying to get
noticed by someone....anyone...anywhere.
Egads...I may have suffered brain damage from exposure to that shirt.

You *may* actually have suffered some brain damage from a single
viewing of the . . . thing that is he's wearing in Budapest. I had a
*possible* petit mal seizure ("absence epilepsy") when I first saw it.
I seemed to "go away" for a while. All I'm sure of is that 15 minutes
had passed from the time I first clicked on that link and saw the shirt
until I came "out of it." I was *still* staring at it...and saliva was running
out of the corner of my mouth and onto my grey sweatshirt. I felt verry
sleepy (post-ictal?) and had to lie down and have a wee nappy. <g>

OK...
So I'm watching "The Patriot" last night on - um - TNN? At the
end, Ol' Mel is in close hand-to-hand combat with SBBO(tm) -
(Slimy Brutal British Officer. you can always tell them - they
have widows peaks). They're waving sharp objects around. Mel
loses his Cherokee tomahawk. He gets sliced on both arms (how
did he avoid getting tendons cut?). He gets sliced on his back.
He sinks to his knees in pain and exhaustion, apparently resigned
to his fate.
SBBO (tm), armed with sword and either bayonet or dagger
(couldn't tell) yells insults and prepares to whack Mel's head
off (presumably). At that point, I said, "OK, he's going to be
ready; when SBBO(tm) comes at him from behind he will block the
blow, twist around, and impale the guy.
Well, almost. He ducked and rolled, causing the SBBO(tm) to
overstep. He then impaled the guy.
All that *didn't* happen was the SBBO(tm) saying "Everyone's a
critic". Plus there was no lightning.

The SBBO(tm) is Jason Isaacs who was Zachary Blaine in The Lady and the
Tiger. I don't normally read fanfic (no time), but if anyone happens to
have written or knows of one that features Zachary Blaine as Tavington in
the past (after all, Tavington was not beheaded), please send me the URL.
Thanks,
Barbara

Running? W/ a flag? That's disgraceful--someone could lose an eye!

Flags are for whapping...not for running.

I always got whapped by the flag*pole*, not that it had any real effect.

:::: choking on orange segment :::: LOL!!!
Actually, he did another move with the flag that was like a cross
between what Little John did in Robin of Sherwood when he upended
the horse with his staff, and Braveheart where the poor horsies
ran into the pikes.

Actually, it did go through but I figured someone else would be
answering. Anyway, as I recall, it was sometime in the summer. I
think I found it by going to the link for coming attractions.
I guess it was just a problem on this side since I never did see the
message show up. To those of you who answered, thanks.
Hmmm. I'm not finding it now, but I do remember seeing it before.
Maybe the Highlander store asked them to take it off for now?
I'd be suprised if they could control what AB announces on their
site. I may send a note to AB and ask if the date has changed.
(since that would explain it no longer being listed.) If I get
any useful info from them I'll post it to the list.
I did see that the Rick Springfield Nick Night is coming out next
month.
It's interesting that they're doing that since it had already
been released at one point. I don't know if this one has anything
different on it though. If the sales are good enough maybe we'll
be lucky and they'll try to get the rights to Forever Knight. I
have no idea if whoever had the rights to the tv movie is the
same as whoever has the rights to the tv series though.
