Subject: Knight and Day
I saw an advanced trailer for an upcoming movie starring Tom Cruise and
Cameron Diaz called "Knight and Day". If FK were still being made today
I could see Schanke having a field day with this. Especially if the movie
ends up being as bad as it looks. Actually Schanke would probably
like it While on the topic of movies, how do you think the FK characters
would feel about the many recent vampire movies and
TV shows? I can imagine LaCroix having a field day with what happens to
the Twilight vamps in daylight. "I am much too old and powerful to
twinkle."

Hi! Merry, merry and all that. This is full 8.5 x11 and folds into a card.

Apologies folk. I've fallen guilty to the sin of not double checking
on just whom I'm replying to email messages.
In any case, best wishes of the holiday and all that
And to relate it to Forever Knight: was there a Christmas episode?

But maybe with the application of "fairy dust, just a sprinkle."

Ooh, a rhyme!

Hi Forkni friends. I wanted to check in and make sure those of you in
the extended DC metro area are ok and those north of here are getting
prepared. The FAA has just closed Reagan National airport and there
are near-whiteout conditions in DC. The road crews have been out
plowing and salting but really are having trouble keeping up with the
heavy snow and blowing wind. PLEASE don't drive in this storm. I live
right on a major urban street and can see stuck busses and cars under
my window, but I can't see anything more than a block away. The only
one moving easily outside is a guy with snowshoes. There's a great
story on the news of a guy from Moscow who decided he could handle
driving to Florida because this is normal weather for him. He drove a
few blocks, got stuck, and had to be towed. And even if you are a
winter pro, you are sharing the road with folks who aren't.
I lived in Chicago for years and can handle myself in blizzards, and I
might not even go outside to look around for a few hours yet. I can
definitely sympathize with Schanke looking up to the sky and
screaming, but it's just breathtakingly beautiful from inside my warm
home.
Love you guys. Please be safe.

This in one time when I have to say OT is ok. I too want to express empathy
with those in the DC area and everywhere else affected by the storm. Laila is
absolutely right -- please, please stay off the roads if you possibly can, and
if you have to drive, do it very carefully.
Love,
McLisa

Subject: RFairy dust, was Knight and Day
For those we haven't seen the famous blooper reel we used to claim we didn't
have <g>, there's a wonderful outtake from that seen where Nigel and Ger both
break down laughing at that line and the sprinkling.

>>Honestly, four inches of snow here and the whole country comes to a halt!
I've been in London in January where less than an inch made the buses deserted
and halted both commuter trains and the underground (some of which, of course,
runs above ground.) It reminded me greatly of my home in S.C. :)

No, but it does sound fascinating.

I'm out in the No. Virginia burbs and the last time I checked it was over 11
inches, and that was hours ago! I'm hoping the winds will subside a bit before
dark so that I can go out and shovel the drive and walkway.
And I recall Schanke hating the cold weather. I can relate ... the snow
certainly IS beautiful, but it creates a host of problems.
Hoping everyone is safe and warm!
