Although Kristin has a fomidable site, you might want to try the KtK site

I don't know about age, but size certainly is. There's no way
Nat's heart was the same as that little girl's.

Subject: FK Moment
I was doing a search for FK articles when an
unexpected one showed up. It was about a dog show in
Providence, RI. in 2001. The dog representing the toy
group was named Ch. Nauset Forever Knight, a Chinese
crested from Chicopee, Mass. Unfortunately, he lost
to a standard poodle for 'Best in Show'.

Unless of course the problem with the heart was that is was enlarged, in which
case, why replace it with another large heart? also, most organs do "shrink" or
"enlarge" to fit where needed. that is why a father can donate a kidney to his 2
year old son, just as a 2 year old could give a new kidney to a 35 year old man.
I use kidneys cause that is what I know....

I had a similar moment not too long ago. I was looking up pictures
on webshots and put in a search for "Forever Knight". One of the
photos it came up with was a rider in full show outfit (ie riding
jacket and pants,etc) horse. It's full name was ARS Forever Knight.
The horse is a beautiful black stallion. So of course I downloaded
the photo.

An element that is important is size. A woman often cannot accept the
heart of a man, because it's too big to fit in her chest cavity. And
children need child organs, or they simply won't fit.

And I have a feeling that ol' Libratsie would want something out of Screed's
place -- that old tv, maybe? Or the twinkly lights? Well, I know what she
really wants -- the leather cap -- but she can't have it! It's Greg's and I

He said he was scared to do that. hehehe. <wRPg>
I do know the thing Greg would really like - and that was the pile of dead
rats in FEVER that was in Screed's place after he went on his feeding frenzy.
In truth, the item I'd REALLY like is Screed's dagger. The gent who won it at
Bridging the Knight did let me get a close look at it. I should've taken a
picture, but for some reason didn't. It was h'a thingee o' beauty, h'it wuz.
I'd also love to have another rat of Screed's. There were lots of them in the
show.

Well, Nick had it in Paris in the 1920's (1930's?) in Baby, Baby.
Perhaps he made it himself, in a phase of dabbling in sculpture/carving
instead of painting?
Off the cuff, I'd say the style was rather Victorian; any antique buffs
out there willing to weigh in on a possible date?

I just saw the movie "Auto Focus" on DVD, the life
story of Bob Crane - Hogan's Heroes fame. John Kapelos
was in it for a brief cameo with a really bad toupe!
It was a character from the seventies but if he didn't
speak I would not have known it was him. I was very
surprised, I hadn't heard about the role, or at least
didn't notice it posted.

This is what I get for deleting so much of my mail (darn the sudden influx

cacti?
Anyway, if you are referring to the humor story of Nick bringing across that
cactus he kept in his apartment, then I must raise my guilty hand while
wearing a paper bag over my head. lol
Parenthood Can Be A Pain In The Neck by Kyer (or Kyer en Ysh) but where you
might find it I'm not sure. I can try to track it down on my collection of

it destroyed. Be warned that it is probably rife with typos as I don't
believe it was ever beta'd.

Of course, when I take a couple of days off from work to relax, FK
isn't on anymore.(arrgggghhhh!!) So I decided to have a little
marathon of my own.
Anyhoo.....
I am watching AtA and when Divia calls Lacroix at the station and
askes Does he know what it feels like to be betrayed by his own
child, and then she says something like "I didn't think so." I
I'm sitting there on the couch saying Yes he does!!!! He knows
exactly how she feels. Nick staked him only a few years before, plus
Nick has spurned the 'gift' for centuries.
But, he could be a bit nervous, since he knew how, ummmm ..... upset
he was when Nick staked him, and he wasn't buried in the desert for
2000 years. So she had a little more time to brood.
Ok, just had to get that off my chest.
Back to the videos!!!

At the end of Ashes to Ashes, when Nick and Lacroix are standing in

"work around" the fact that someone is a resisor (ie - to alter
Tracy's memory of Vachon's death). I immediately thought of Be My

My feelings exactly. The way Nat's memory was just a
blur the morning after, it had to be LC whammying her.
And she went all gaga in the restaurant itself, her
speech becoming slurred like a drunk's (after one
glass of champagne I doubt it was the alcohol).
I wonder if LC used hypnotism on Schanke in Close
Call. I can't make up my mind. Maybe he was just very
