Hi all,
Just a reminder that "Buffalo Tracks" tomorrow (08 June) should ...or could
...be the
one in which MG is interviewed. Evan Adams duly announced it last week
....but as,
the last time they were shown, MG's episode was skipped and shown out of
sequence- I don't know whether they'll actually air them in the correct
order ...or just
show them in the order they originally did, sigh....check it out if you
can anyway!
Marnie:)
:-{ sigh - Zan, Jun/7/2001 21:52:32
Not this little black trock ... such
are the wages
of living in the Southern Hemisphere. sigh.
Back to the Vikings ...
Author: Zan , Jun/7/2001 22:17:07
(Don't think we can have burgers in this historic
period ... can we ? HOWEVER, I fully intend to have
hot tea, herbal or otherwise, cause it's cold at six
a.m. down here !! ... Think I'll have an English muffin
or two, with leatherwood honey, as well ...
Yummmmmmmmm !)
BACK TO OUR HERO:
Zan has just arrived in the Viking camp hauling her
leather bag full of aromatic oil rubs, tea pots for
every occasion, a soft blanket for Michael the Magnificient
to lay on (while she ministers to his pain), a kilo
of Lord Hi-Greylander tea mix, freshly warmed trocks
(enough for everyone), and in a specially sealed crock --
the clothes of Harold the Scabby and Practically Bald
(he'll be stuck in camp awhile yet, tied up as he
is under a bundle of furs with a stale cucumber
sandwich shoved in his mouth back to his tonsils).
Alright -- where's Lord Michael ? I've come to do
as Marlene the Wolf asked !! My lord needs me -- ME!!
(Power's a great thing, if ephemeral.) Kiki, the
Valiant -- you got a spare bench I can work on ? ...
Now where have those princesses gotten to ? And
what about Nellie Chameleon Woman and Eric the Red ?
Hello - Nellie, Jun/8/2001 04:03:12
Like Marlene said, l've gone to Michaeldom.
Thought l'd say hello to all you struggling
in the Viking era. l really like it here.
Michaeldom ? - Zan, Jun/8/2001 18:30:38
Never heard of the place ... Now, Nellie --
you can't stay there when we need you so much !!
Who's going to help Marlene ? Who'll disguise themselves
and spy for Michael the Magnificient ? I know it's
smelly and cold in Viking land, but we NEED you, girl !!
guy's in skirts?????? - Kiki, Jun/9/2001 20:04:14
got to wondering what those viking guys used to wear. i passed by this
big Celtic
festival way out in the country side today. All these good ole boys getting
out of there
pickup trucks. Wearing plaid skirts! with those funny looking decorative
bags in front.
Maybe to hold trocks?? hey those guys must be roasting in this heat wearing
those wool
skirt's.
Did viking's wear skirts like kilts too? Give me a guy in jeans & cowboy
boot's any day.
no skirts PLEASE!!! Kiki
Kilts !!! NOT Skirts - Zan, Jun/10/2001 00:17:45
Kiki -- sometimes I despair of you. ;-} Those were
KILTS those good ole boys had on. And I have to tell
you that there are many BIG CELTIC MEN (like my
husband !!) who wear them on formal or clan occasions !!
That's a sporran on the front -- that funny leather
bag you saw.
Actually they are surprisingly cool -- the air
circulates underneath and keeps 'things' cool, so to
speak.
On chat-Saturday we discussed the possibility of
carrying trocks (and hot haggis) in the sporrans
... to keep 'em warm, like. All of this of course
had NOTHING WHATEVER to do with Michael -- we were
just mucking about.
As far as Vikings wearing KILTS, no they didn't.
They wore tunic thingies and trousers. In winter
they wore a cloak over the top to keep warm. Check
sites on the net -- they'll tell you exactly what
they wore.
Now I reckon some men would look absolutely fabulous
in jeans and cowboy boot (Michael being one of them),
but some don't -- like my poor hubby. But put him
in a kilt, and I spend all my time cuddling up to him,
particularly if ... No -- think I won't go there ...
skirts - Kiki, Jun/10/2001 19:43:48
Zan a skirt is a skirt is askirt. guy's legs are to hairy to wear them
any way!
& most of them have ugly knees.but whatever makes you're heart go
pitterpatter right????
Going out to buy tight jeans && lizardskin cowboy boot's f/ a special
guy.*sigh* if I ever saw him in a kilt i'd knock some sense back into him
faster than u could pour the Jack D bbq sauce on your trocks.........Kiki
A kilt is a kilt, of course, of course ... - Zan, Jun/11/2001 01:11:50
You hanging out with a special breed of hairy males
with knobby knees and terrible calves ? I admit most
Celts are hirsuite, but this isn't necessarily a
BAD thing ... My men generally have great legs --
very muscular -- so they look great in KILTS !!!
You need some re-educating in construction of gender,
Girlfriend. Men in KILTS are NOT feminized !!
Now, rolling past that -- men MUST have a great tookis
to wear jeans, not one of those flat, flabby numbers,
AND a ripped stomach. Otherwise it's just pathetic,
n'est pas ?

Zan is a little tired after hauling all her gear but
brightens up when she sees Michael on the bench
that Kiki has prepared for our hero.
Please,Zan,don't put the stuff from Scabby Butt
Harold in here!
Magua has escorted the lovely princesses to Kiki's
and they are holding Michael's hand and combing his
long beautiful hair. Magua takes the princesses to
the two trock chairs as Zan prepares for Michael's
message.
Zan must be a great messeuse because Michael is
purring like a kitten! The two princesses are
giggling in the corner.
The message finished, Michael gets up and rolls his
arm in a circular motion. For some unknown reason,
Magua breaks into laughter.
AH! Zan has received her well deserved reward------
Michael goes over to Zan and showers a big smile
on her. Zan's heart is beating fast as Michael,The
Magnificent, takes her into his arms and gives Zan
a big, grateful hug. "Thankyou,Zan! I feel great!"
Magua,although enjoying the scene a lot, reminds
everyone that we must get back to the business at
hand. "Distroy Harold.The Unwashed! Eric The Red's
orders. Michael,Magua,Marlene,The Wolf put on their
battle gear and prepare for battle as the lovely
princesses are left in the care of Valiant,Kiki!
Viking saga continues - Carol, Jun/8/2001 13:10:14
Carol who has been lurking out in the forest all night
appears on the scene just in time to apply sunscreen
to the 3M's.
Carol- "Thanks for warming Michael up for me,Zan! Now I
can give him a good slathering with my special SPF formula."
Michael is now loose as a goose.Marlene and Magua glare
at the goings on. Magua looks over at Marlene and states
"What are we chopped haggis?" Carol hands a crock of trocks
and sunscreen to Marlene and says slyly "Why don't you 2 find a
quiet place to share these little gifts, or maybe take a long
drive in Magua's blue Mohawkmobile?" The princesses decide to
partake of Carol's specially brewed tea and fall asleep. Zan is standing
there
steaming (we aren't talking tea here.) Kiki gives Zan a glance,
and states "Me thinks we should throw the wench out!"
Carol-"Now look, I have this great thing to vanquish Harold with.
She hands Zan a bar of soap."This will really knock him out, it's
like what Krytonite is to Superman. Besides Zan you are the only
one that can really get to Harold!" Kiki says "I hate to admit
it but it makes sense!" Zan heads out to give 'Harold
the Unwashed' a bath, with Carols secret weapon. Magua and
Marlene hop into the Mohawkmobile geared up for a fight,
and take Kiki with them. This leaves Carol alone with "Michael the
Magnificent".:):)
Oh No, you don't !!! - Zan, Jun/8/2001 18:57:20
Before Zan leaves for Harold's bath house, she alerts
the princesses to Carol's devious plans. Marnie
sends one of her manly contingent to fetch a horse for
Michael -- she knows he'll want to join in the
battle.
While the princesses wait for the horse to
arrive, they feed Michael peeled grapes and fresh,hot
trocks.
Zan, by now quite cool-headed, arrives in Harold's
camp, rescues him from under the furs, and coaxes
him into the bath house, promising to very gently
wash his scabby skull and back. (Jeez, Carol -- you're
some cruel woman !! And I was NOT steaming earlier --
you lie like a rug !! That green-eyed monster around
your neck does not become you !!)
Saga continues.... - Carol, Jun/9/2001 01:56:33
Whence we left Michael and Carol:) Carol was slathering
Michael the Magnificent. While slathering, she was also sighing and
slobering. Michael rests his hands on her shoulders, smiles
down at her, with that terrific smile of his, and says,
"Gee, faithful servant I'm glad you brought some protection
(from the sun)for me knowing how much I'm out doors and all but I just
don't
know if I like that necklace you are wearing." "Then take it off"
Carol coos. Michael gently lifts the drool bucket from around
Carol's neck. Her frock catches on the bucket handle and
off it comes. She is standing there in her Viking underwear,
which had been hammered out by Kiki. "Care for a muffin Master?"
Carol says coyly. Michael can not get near Carol without puncturing
himself. A very clever ruse by Kiki, the inventor of the first
chastity bra. "Carol, you are very fetching in that outfit,
it's in my favorite color too, iron grey. However I'm afraid
I can not be unfaithful to Mrs. Magnificent. Why don't you get a fresh
dress on and help the princesses with their primping."
Just then the horse is delivered to 'Michael the Magnificent'
and he is off to join Magua and 'Marlene the wolf' in their mission to
rid the land of 'Harold scabby butt.'
Hold On Carol! - Marlene, Jun/9/2001 06:13:02
You did great,Carol, but let's tell them more on how our
noble mounts were brought to us.
And don't forget how the noble princesses came back
from chartering the boat from The Captian and
Gilligan to search the seas for Michaeldom and
Nellie,only to return dissapointed and a bit down.
By all means help the princesses with their primp-
ing and rest then. After all your heart must be
still fluttering after Michael was so close!!!!!
Hold on(AS ARNIE SAID----I"LL BE BACK!)
Oh, Baby ... - Zan, Jun/8/2001 18:46:51
Smiles and hugs !! Purring like a kitten ?!!
Can I stand this much attention ? One thing I do
know -- Michael sure smells better than Harold, even
on a hot day when he's been fighting !!!
So -- guess I'll boil some water over the forge for
hot drinks all round and bake a fresh lot of trocks.
kwitcherbitchin.... :) *g* - Kiki, Jun/8/2001 22:38:45
While you guys snivell & quibbel over foolishness i have a big order
of horned
metal warhelmets to finish before the dead line on Sunday. Zan & Marlene
get
your lazy duff's over here to the smithy & help me if i don't finish
them ontime
it's off with my pretty little head. Those Viking's are tough customers.
Kiki
sweating over the red hot forge. my work is never done. bring me a mug
of mead
i;m thirsty!!!!!! No pouring water on MY forge Zan or these hats will never
get
done. what do you think this is a sauna or something????????????
Water your forge ? - Zan, Jun/9/2001 01:02:00
Hey -- I would never pour water on your forge !! You
think I'm a wing-nut or something ? (Although come to
think of it, a sauna this cold winter morning would
really help !!) I was just going to put a largish pot
of water on to boil for some of that hazelnut concoction
you brought last time. But if you want a mug of mead,
I'm right on it !!
As to my 'duff' being lazy, give it a break, woman --
I've just given Michael the shoulder rub of a lifetime,
and now I have to (stomach-turning; skin turning
bileous green) bathe Harold to set him up for defeat
by Michael and Co.
You can raz Carol all you want, though. She's the one
who sent me off to Harold's camp to prove my loyalty.
sigh. Why does everyone pick on me ? (thumb-sucking
and whining)
Horns for war helmets - Carol, Jun/9/2001 02:10:48
Kiki, Zan,*w*I hope you are not too attached to your head because you
know the horns you ordered for those helmets? Well- the
supplier says he can't get them here till next Tuesday.
See ya!
What horns ? - Zan, Jun/9/2001 18:27:39
Hey !! I am NOT working on helmets, okay ??!! You
sent me off to bathe Harold -- odious job, that !!
Still, I'd do just about anything to prove my loyalty.
But, Kiki ... Carol ... you two can just kiss my
teapot !! *LMAO*
O.K. So we won't have horns on the helmets... - Carol, Jun/9/2001 18:54:09
Zan, So did you find out what the plan is? I mean with
Harold. Like when, where how, is he gonna attack?
The Kava Kava, and chamomile I threw in the tea has just
about worn off on the princesses, and I've been instructed
by
the 'Magnificent one' to help those beauties primp.
Looks like my weapon is a hairbrush. Marlene gets to
have a real weapon like a sword and shield.(sulking)
I think I'll just sit over here and have a chocolate
covered trock and some tea till I think of something.
Care to join me? Maybe between the two of us we can think
of a counter attack.
Did you say 'tea' ? - Zan, Jun/9/2001 19:54:04
No -- haven't discovered the plan ... yet. That
man takes a lot of scrubbing, and he's really enjoying
it, too !! (BLEH !!)
Still, Marlene seems to know about everything that
happens before it does ... How does she do that !!??
As to the hairbrush -- Harold could use a good
spanking.
(Sound of light going on) Maybe that will make him
talk !! Here -- give me the brush !
I'm sure Kiki has finished some swords if not all
the helmets. Weren't you helping her ? I seem to
recall her calling our duffs lazy !! Guess
'persuation' isn't in her vocab., eh ?
Nah -- no tea for me at the moment. Would like one
of those cucumber sandwiches, though, now that the
princesses are back in action.
Well, I'm off to spank ... uh ... finish scrubbing
Harold's back and trocks. See ya !!
OOPS! Correction---
Author: Marlene, Jun/8/2001 05:54:29
The word is "Massage" Please excuse???
By the way,Zan, to answer your question----
I'm a red wolf!
Marlene
Re wolves ... - Zan, Jun/8/2001 19:00:21
I'm a timber wolf sorta girl myself. Maybe we could
work them into the saga somehow. Whaddaya think ?
(Like a fresh trock and a mug of mead ?)
Thanks! - Marlene, Jun/8/2001 23:30:28
Zan,
Don't mind if I do!
Buffalo Tracks - MG Appearance
Author: Jeri, Jun/8/2001 18:38:31
The interview with Michael was in fact, rebroadcast on today's
show. It should air again at 8:00 p.m.
That long hair....**sigh**
Jeri
Re long hair - Zan, Jun/8/2001 19:03:10
I agree with you completely !! Too bad it's all gone
now ... sigh. I estimate it will take about four
years to get to its previous length. Think I can
hold on just that long ...
'hair' brained discussion?? *g* - Kiki, Jun/8/2001 22:28:50
sure the long hair gave him a unique & exotic look but what ever he
thinks is the
right thing for his career i'm all for it. We're not fans because of his
hair. we're
fans of his talent his integrety, & his sincerity. Hair or no hair
when he flashes
that wonderful smile, thats' all that matters.
Actor's change their hair & their looks all the time. So do rock stars.
i'd still be a true blue fan if he went as bald as a doornob. or should
i say bald as
one of those trocks you guys are always talking about??? *g* Kiki
Bald as a trock ... - Zan, Jun/9/2001 00:49:19
Well hey, Girl -- where ya been ? Of course I agree
that no matter how Michael wears his hair (or doesn't,
I'd still be a devoted fan. BUT I adore his look when
he has long locks -- can't help it, I'm that shallow !!
Still, you're right about his smile !! Glaciers have
melted after being treated to one of those.
As to trocks being hairless -- who said they were ?
l hate bald. - Nellie, Jun/9/2001 03:03:45
Well now ya got me started. l detest the bald look.
guys look like dam skeletons or giant babies.
Have l ever
posted the e'mail from the mother of a 9yr old boy
who refuses to cut his hair despite the pressure at
school. He said he would not give them the
satisfaction because his hair is what makes him an
individual, that it is his right and more importantly
his heritage.
"Mommy, l'm proud to be American Indian, that's what
l am now and l will be Indian tomorow."
Bald or long locks he's still Michael!! - Carol, Jun/9/2001 04:10:48
Welcome back from the beach in Michaeldom, Nellie! I love
Michael
best with his hair long too, butcha know what? I also
loved the acting of Yul Brynner, and his head
was shaved. It was the look in his eyes, the passion he
conveyed of the character he was playing, that really came across.
Great actor! Michael does the same thing. That's why he's soooo
good!
He's an actor, trying to fit into the role he was playing,
I don't think he was making a social statement when he
decided to cut it. Let's just pray Michael doesn't
accept a role where he's playing the life of Yul Brynner or
Telly Savales.
How about joining in the fun with a contribution to the Viking
story!
More Power to the long hairs! - Marlene, Jun/9/2001 05:55:12
Yes,most Indians are proud to be Indian I think!
Finally afer so many suffering years in Mission
and state schools ,where one of the first things
they did with the new Indian Students was cut the
boys' hair so they would look like "refined" white
children. I believe it's called ASSIMILATION Make
the wild heithens tame! Make them be absorbed into
the white stream of life. DON'T ASK THEM! Just do it
It was believed that the Indians did not have
religion,so cram Cristianity down their throuts.
And all Indian tribes had such beautiful spiritual
religion in their every day lives----not just one
day out of the week.
Finally we all Americans are free to follow our
own wishes and choices in life(Lenth of Hair,
Religion or anything else!)
So,Indians,blacks,whites,hispanics and everybody
wear your hair the way you want it out of freedom
of choice not because someone else says so.
Of couse any guy(Indian or White or any other
color who wears his hair to his waist really
turns me on!!!!!
Give me hair down to there ... - Zan, Jun/9/2001 18:22:24
Ain't it a poop that assimilation is still going on ?
I, too, find that whole Christian-conversion schtick
gives me the willies. I won't give to any charity
that helps people in other countries unless they're
non-denominational. (People shouldn't have to give
up their culture and religion -- which in many cases
is synonymous -- to eat and get medical care. How
awful is that !!???)
There are still many professions in the Western World
that have a 'short-hair' policy for men. I think that's
a kind of discrimination that places like Disneyland
and McDonald's enforce. And if a long-haired guy
goes to places like Malaysia and Indonesia, they
strip-and-cavity-search him coming and going.
Still, show me a man with long-hair, particularly down
past his shoulderblades, and I'm draggin' my tongue
on the pavement with all you lot.
Giant Babies ... - Zan, Jun/9/2001 18:11:20
Nellie, Nellie --
Most guys (except for Michael and a select few others)
are giant babies. sigh. Hair doesn't change that --
the lack of just reveals their true nature.
This mania for short hair (or no hair) sure feels
like a return to Fifties conservatism to me. sigh.
You'd think the new century would have brought about
advocacy for individualism. What was I expecting ?
The US voted in walnut-brained Bush -- Mr. Stupid
AND Conservative.
Zan - oh yeah? - Kiki, Jun/9/2001 20:13:57
Zan you wrote 'As to trocks being hairless -- who said they were ?'
(girl dont' you even go there!) i bet you a bottle of Jack Daniel's
bourbon barbecue sauce, i say you never even SAW a real live trock up
close & personal! *g* what would ya DO with one if you found one any
way?*wink*
Well back to the forge i got an extention from the Viking's leaderto
next thursday for those horned helmets. gotcha Marlene or was it carol!
Kiki
Helmets - Carol, Jun/9/2001 22:39:05
Glad to hear you got an extension! Looks like there
won't be an extraction (of your head).
How about taking over some of the brushing duties
of the royal coffures? My arm is getting tired and
that's my tea drinking arm. You don't want to see me
die of thirst do you? I could use a cucumber sandwich
right about now, too.
Re trocks and things that go bump ... - Zan, Jun/10/2001 00:26:40
Glad you got an extension on turning out those horned
helmets !! Too bad in a way -- I'm doing backflips
imagining Michael with his hair all flat and silly
from being jammed into one of those things !!
(It was Carol, by the way who said the shipment hadn't
come through. Think she didn't want to work with
you at the forge. LMAO)
And I've seen plenty of trocks ... sure I have !! I've
seem 'em up close and personal as it gets, I tells ya.
If I found one just laying around on its lonesome, I
put back with its friends ... well to begin with,
anyway. See -- there's so many uses for trocks, I'd
be spoiled for choice. Guess you better put that
barbeque sauce in the mail, Girl !!
Princesses ?
Author: Zan , Jun/9/2001 20:05:33
What's been happening with you women ? And Sonja --
don't tell it's been all about wallpaper !!
Frankly, I've been longing for sandwiches all week !!
Hog Tied - Marnie, Jun/10/2001 01:02:14
Homepage: Greyland
Hey, it's hard to get at a computer keyboard when you are gagged
and drugged and tied up ....which is pretty much how you guys have
us (though I believe Sonja is actually being held captive by a band
of marauding house painters *g*...No ...really!). We've been sitting
back ...waiting to be rescued ...and rather enjoying watching all
the madness unfold!!
....Don't suppose someone could scratch my nose, huh?
Marnie:)
Poor hog ... tied - Zan, Jun/10/2001 14:28:59
Well, hey Girls --
You're not drugged any more !! Michael sent Carol
to help you two get gussied up. Kiki tried to co-opt
me and Carol, but Carol (the heartless woman) sent me
off to bathe Harold and get information out of him
about his plans, all to prove my loyalty!!
Before I went, I did two things: 1) I told you (you
had woken up and I untied you) that Michael had been
left behind by Marlene and Mangua; you sent one of
your contingent to fetch a horse for our Lord Hi-Grender
(whom Carol had been planning some alone time with!);
2)I took Carol's hairbrush (she had been working on
you two's coiffures) so she could take up a sword
instead (once she got finished helping Kiki with the
horned helmets); I intended to use the brush on Harold
...
Kiki said Carol and I should get our lazy duffs over
to help her, but I assured her that we didn't have lazy
duffs: I had given Michael the shoulder rub of a life-
time, handed out warm, fresh trocks and tea, then gathered
up my stuff to go back and free Harold from under all
those animal skins, then bathe him in an effort to
get information; Carol had been sent by Michael to
revive you two and ... well, she was getting tired of
doing hair.
Anyway, Carol said the shipment of horns had been held
up. Luckily Eric was feeling in a pretty good mood
after I had rescued him from the drink (Nellie threw
him overboard by mistake, thinking he was Harold) and
then massaged his big, muscular body (too hairy for
my liking, though) with warm oils while plying him
with mead and a platter of hot trocks. SO, he gave
Kiki an extension until Thursday on weapons and helmets.
That's the state of affairs for the moment... as far
as I know, that is. Carol may be planning something
else devious (*g*) to get Le Magnifico (or whatever
that is in Viking-speak)to herself. We ALL know very
well that His HI-NESS may only be with princesses !!
Don't know what that woman is thinking !!
totally confused thanks to Zan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - Kiki, Jun/10/2001 17:41:25
now Zan's got the story& me totallly messed up. Well while she's summing
up
the story i've got helmets to finish & now a new order for 1000 Viking
sword's by Friday. The Hi-Vi him self asked me nice so i can't say no
right???
my work is never done. and you slugs arent' helping me one bit. all you
talk
about is bath & massage& trocks,i've been working so hard at the
forge.
havent' had a bath or a good meal in a week. At least I'm doing something
USEFUL for THE CAUSE. (What IS the cause anyway zan has me so
confused!!!!) Send 1 of those strong young viking guy's to give me a masage
i
need it bad my muscles are so sore.
Kiki
p.s. jack Daniel's bbq sauce on moldey haggus is pretty good to......!!!
Sick puppy ... - Zan, Jun/11/2001 01:02:22
Kiki -- what am I to do with you ? First you confuse
kilts with skirts, now you're confused by the storyline.
I'LL send one of those long-haired Viking lads that
I've personally trained to give you a long overdue
massage, Woman !!
But please -- go have a sauna and wash first, loosen
those muscles up !! I'll have the boy bring you food
to eat while having a massage. (Promise -- no haggis
or cucumber sandwiches. Like some mead, as well ?)
You'll work better once you're refreshed, you know !!
Calling us names, like "slugs", and telling us our
duffs are lazy will not make us move in your direction,
I can tell you. If you ask the princesses nicely, I
bet they could spare some of their very fit lot of
men to help you out, let you have a bit of a break.
So be NICE, okay ?
As soon as I have some definite information from Harold
the Scabby (currently being washed and spank ... having
his hair brushed), I'll be back ...
ok i give up Zan - Kiki, Jun/11/2001 11:52:21
hmmmmph, better watch my p's and q's around u Zan!!! *g*!! Once
i see you girls voluntering to help at the forge my opinion (& snide
comment's) may change!! But yeah PLEASE send over 1 of those
hunky Viking boy's to do the heavy lifting f/ me?? If he can get
my sauna to work that would be real nice too!! as for the
princesses (psssttt,i heard they're imposters!!!)I dont' think any
nicey-nice asking on my part will do ANY good,they're the ones
who put me at hard labor in the smithy shop any way!!! i dont'
deserve this, i am sweet & good.
((wait till those viking's see me all clean and dolled up after my
bath, they;re gonna drop like flies. wonder if one of the brave
leader's will fall madly in love w/me? okay Zan i know, i've been
drinking to much mead, must be a little tipsy!!!))
Kiki, overworked,sweaty & underfed
Cucumber sandwiches ... - Zan, Jun/11/2001 22:30:14
Why, Kiki, you poor thing !! Didn't realise you
are a "good girl", but you must know that no good
girl goes unpunished ?!!
Still a bath and a massage will help the sweaty and
tired situation. Sorry -- don't have a Viking boy to
massage you, darlin', only some Michael-vaguely-lookalikes.
Will one of those do ? Oh yeah -- had Myc (your sauna
and massage guy) fix your sauna for you, so no excuses
now not to get squeaky.
Now if you're hungry, I've been instructed by the
princesses (who have excellent credentials -- saw
them myself) to tell you that the national dish has
not changed from cucumber sandwiches and Earl Grey
Tea. However, there is a bit of variety with hot
trocks and muffins, and for the purposes of this story
mead to drink ... occasionally: can't let you get
tipsy too often or you'll never finish those swords
and helmets, eh ?
Oh yeah - princesses do NOT work, except at making
cucumber sanwiches and tea, and making the Lord Hi-
Greylander happy.
Now don't get too greedy about getting one of those
Viking leaders. I'm giving Myc -- isn't that enough
to suit you for awhile ? He's very, very sweet and
obedient... almost like a big, friendly dog, really
...
Hanky panky, Harold gets a spanky! - Carol, Jun/11/2001 03:46:49
Meanwhile back at Harold the Scabby's lair, Zan has been
able to perk up Harold. It seems Harold has found the
love of his life in Zan. (That girl really knows
how to use a hairbrush!) He tells her that he is to
kidnap the princesses to force 'Michael the Magnificent'
into a trap. That's where he will get in good with
'Eric the Red' to gain the lands that he wants.(Little does
Harold know that the land is really swamp land in Florida)
Poor Harold- not only is he scabby but he's not too
bright either. Even though Zan has warmed up to him
a little, after all he smells better now. He makes
the grave mistake of smiling. Uh-oh Gingivitis, only
two teeth are visible. He uses one tooth for ripping
meat off the bone and the other to chew.
Zan has to think of a way to warn Michael which I'm sure
she's scheming up right now!
What !!?? the .... - Zan, Jun/11/2001 22:47:32
(Carol -- do you sit up nights thinking of terrible
things to do to me, or does this inclination for
torture come spontaneously !! :-O ... Okay, then --
here's what happens next...)
Zan calls in an emergency dentist, who constructs
dentures that look remarkably like MG's REAL teeth !!
While that's being done, she whips up soft, purple
velvet and doeskin clothes for Harold and replaces his
cracked old boots with new, black, waterproof numbers.
She noticed that once she got the dirt and scabs
off Harold (which were old in any case, just hadn't
fallen off) and replaced his teeth AND washed his
long, brown hair, he was nearly a sight for sore
eyes !!
While he ate cucumber sandwiches, hot trocks and sipped
Earl Grey(eyes)Tea which she had prepared for him with
her own hands and for which he was remarkably grateful,
she barely heard a word he was saying about the
princesses and land somewhere down south, 'cause he
kept smiling in her direction and patting her on the
... shoulder ...
(Guess I borrowed the brush for nothing, Carol !!)
Re: What !!?? the .... - Carol, Jun/12/2001 02:22:10
Zan, you are waaay too kind to Harold. This borders on
giving aid and comfort to the enemy. You better be careful
you may be brought up before the high command. You
were only on a spy mission, REMEMBER, not a makeover for GQ
magazine.
Meanwhile back at the forge....
We discovered that the bench you used to give Michael
a massage has an imprint of the Magnificent ones body
in it. (Kinda like the Shroud of Turin thing)Only a god
could do such a thing.(Or you've got some strong arms,GIRL!!)
The princesses have actually done something besides drink tea
and eat cucumber sandwiches.They sewed the prettiest little
velvet cover for the bench and put it in the corner.
Made a little shrine out of the thing. It's really
something to see.
Kiki has me working the bellows and helping out hammering
the helmets. If there's one thing I hate it's slaving
over a hot forge all day. And you thought you had it bad
having to give poor Harold a bath!
All we heard from the 3M's is that while they were out
in the meadows they found some gooey substance and invented
Scotch tape and post-it notes. It's going to be a long night
thinking up where this story is gonna go, and no trocklets
in sight.(sigh)
Trocklets galore !! - Zan, Jun/12/2001 16:55:46
"Imprint of the Lord Hi-Greylander", huh ? Didn't
know the ladies had needlework skills. Knew Marnie
was artistic, but not crafty !! ;-} Well, we need
a new shrine in Greyland. Wonder which province it'll
be located in ? Since I made the imprint massaging
Michael, think it ought to go where I live -- Hero!
As to bathing Harold not being such a bad job, those
dried and crusty scabs were, frankly, disgusting to
remove. And when he smiled up at me with those two
teeth of his and breathed that rotten tooth smell into
my face ... Yeech !! Nearly hurled in the bath water.
Couldn't go on trying to deceive him convincingly
without getting the dentist in to fix him up, now could
I ? And REALLY, he had to have some new clothes --
his old ones were ... practically standing up by
themselves, they were so caked in crud !!
So...so...I'm not being disloyal to Michael; I just
needed another interest in life, that's all !! Now,
I'll be ... returning to the princesses to ... report ...
something ... or other ... probably ... maybe ...
Know one thing, though -- won't be working over a
hot forge any time soon !!
(Here's something for you to eat, Carol -- nice hot
trocks and a bucket of milk to give you the energy
to keep on working with Kiki. *g*)
(MARLENE -- where are you ? We need you to carry us
forward a bit !! Besides -- I happen to have an
entire platter of cucumber sandwiches just waiting
for you. There's a fresh pot of tea, too !! Join us,
eh ?)
Re: Trocklets galore !! - Carol, Jun/12/2001 22:29:51
Zan, I never doubted your loyalty for a minute.*g*
I wish Marlene would tell us what she's
been doing out there with Magua and Michael. She's
been awfully quite. Hey, you don't suppose???? Naw,
she's probably honing her battle skills.
Thanks, for sending over the trocks and milk! The
delivery guy was a hunk! I now have a reason
to smile again.:) Hey, where's my hair brush? I need
it back, quickly! Can you have the same guy bring it
to me!? He has the cutest dimples. I think he said his
name is Hans.
The princesses have been in front of the mirror
practicing
their curtseying and greeting skills. Nice line of
work...Huh?
I think they're getting pretty tired of hanging around
a forge.
Trying to Recover!!! - Anon, Jun/13/2001 14:52:22
Thanks Carol for thinking of me.
I was sending my idea on Viking Saga and was cut
off from my server. Lightning struck and burnt
me
out or at least my PC. When I'm back in
operation
I'll have another Viking thing.
By the way just read Michael's plans to keep his
short hair cut. Think I'll cry BUT--- ALL OUR
GOOD
WISHES FOR HIS FUTURE ROLES----RIGHT

Kiki may scratch my "Royal" nose ...providing she puts down the red-hot
pincers first
...feeling a bit of "Man in the Iron Mask" kinda trepidation coming on!!
Talking of things Michael (yes, I know I digress) but I see there's a little
news about
"Till the End of Time"....
"Linda Fiorentino says the producers of the now defunct biographical film
project
about Georgia O'Keefe ( in which MG was to appear) added explicit nude
scenes to the
script without her approval. The accusation surfaced in a cross complaint
the actress
filed in response to a lawsuit from the German studio Art Oko Film, producers
of "Till
the End of Time". The producers sued Fiorentino in April for five million
US alleging
she halted production by repeatedly failing to appear on the set. Fiorentiono
claims the
filmmakers altered the original script to include 'unnecessary, prurient
sex scenes
emphasizing full frontal nudity' that she refused to perform."
Guess there's no chance of it being resurrected now ...pity ....I was kinda
looking
forward to those prurient sex scenes ...teehee!!
Marnie:)
Prurience ? Did someone mention ...? - Zan, Jun/11/2001 22:56:13
sigh. It's always the way, isn't it ? Is this chick
ashamed of her body or aren't they paying enough ?
What part was Michael playing ?
Now you princesses, please read my entry below entitled
"Poor hog-tied", and then any entries after that by
others and myself. You ladies have been free for
quite some time, you know. So Marnie -- you can
scratch your own nose without fear of hot pincers !!
Sonja -- at least in this storyline, you are NOT under
a pile of dog-pee soaked carpet underlay !!
(MUST have a hot drink now and retire to my boudoir.
Could use a muffin or two before I go ...)
Til the end of time - Nellie, Jun/12/2001 03:19:32
l skimmed thru some of Georgia O'keefe's bio-
But she did not go to
New Mexico til later life (middle age) and she
was married.
l figure Michael probably had a small part in
it during the New Mexico days.
Probably not worth his time anyway.
Something better is meant for him.

I read some where that when she was older she had this young handsome faithfull
boy-toy. now i dont' know what part MG was going to play but.....!!!!!!!!
how come
only the older ladie's get boy-toys why not us??? *wink* Kiki
Re Boy toys ... - Zan, Jun/12/2001 16:22:08
Nellie -- think you're probably right about the part
not being worth MG's time. Guess he had to pay a bill
or something, huh ?
Kiki -- didn't I send you a Boy-toy yesterday ? Anyway,
maybe at your age, toys are boys and vice-versa, eh ?
*g*
Georgia always had beautiful young male things around,
married, elderly and even when she was unwell. The
thing is, she was never very interested in the ...
physical side of things. It was more her appreciation
of beauty in its many forms.
So maybe that actress was right to baulk: it wasn't
true to Georgia's life. The producers probably thought
they needed to paint her as some sort of sexual predator
and exhibitionist to 'sell' the product. sigh. That
happens a lot, eh ?
TTEOT - Nellie, Jun/13/2001 03:06:41
l would say 3 cheers for Linda Fiorentino
for having dignity, class and self respect.

At least now he wont' have hat hair under that fancy horn helmet i'm making

Hair ... sigh. - Zan, Jun/13/2001 10:40:20
I know Michael will still be the same talented actor
and great human being with short hair, but ... Still,
my husband keeps his short for the same reason Micheal
does (ease of care), and I know how much trouble long
locks are to look after (mine's down to my waist).
So ... guess we'll just have to see how he goes in
these new parts he hopes to attract -- which I'm sure
will be brilliant !! Gorgeous is gorgeous after all.
Waaaaaaaaaah! - Carol, Jun/13/2001 12:33:29
Yep, no doubt about it, Michael is gorgeous! Still
I feel a little bummed out that he's not planning to
grow his hair back.
I think I need a double plate of chocolate trocklets!

a bird, what with
Michael's allergies! *g*
So now we have to decide....does the Hi-Greylander get given a Cockatiel??
Hmmm...would probably put Havoc's nose somewhat outta joint, ey, Marn?
Or *gulp*
Havoc could be found with a sheepish look on his face and several gobby-gooey
'exotic-bird' type feather's sticking out of his chops!! Aaaaaagh!!

Lucy
from Havoc!!

So near and yet so far.(sigh) I hope he enjoys the bird, they're

A possible ending ...
Author: Zan , Jun/18/2001 18:30:42
Think it's time to wind up the Viking thing and move
on, eh ? So, this is how I see it. (If anyone wants
to fill in details so we have a 'complete' story, please
go right ahead.)
Michael the Magnificent sends word to the princesses
by carrier cockatiel (that's right -- it's LUCY !!)
that Harold's men have been routed. (Which in any
case wasn't too hard to do, since most hadn't been
paid in months, were hungry and lonely, and quite
frankly, needed employment that wasn't so demoralising.
[Being regularly defeated by big Vikings and their
supporters is bad for morale !!])
Kiki throws down her hammer in disgust -- and there
she was nearly finished with the order from Erik, too.
She faces off with Erik (who likes a woman
with strength AND sassiness); they end up in a huge
... um ... wrestling match, from which Kiki emerges
triumphant and much, much richer. She takes off with
the toy-boy Zan gave ... uh ... sent her, as well as
her forge and tools, and goes to live in the Florida
Keys where she founds a chain of taverns specialising
in mead and general Viking fare.
When Marlene arrives back in the Viking Village, Erik
sees her in a new light: she's the warrioress femme
fatale of his dreams: strong, beautiful, intelligent,
funny and able to drink him under the table ... Plus
she's willing to muck in with the best of them when
it comes to fighting, working and ... loving. He
sets out to court her big-time. (She's still trying
to make up her mind ... Mainly because Mangua has
gone all love-sick and follows her around like a
bear on a leash.)
Nellie's decided the cold and snow isn't her idea of
heaven, and so has decamped to a Southern
fifedom called Michaeldom (visited frequently by the
Lord Hi-Greylander himself) where she spends a lot
of time in a hammock slung between two coconut palms
right on the beach. She's writing her masterpiece,
soon to be published in Greylands.
Carol packed her brushes and trocklet-making gear
and headed back to Florida with one of Zan's Michael
clone-boys. She has set up a business called "Organic
Foods and Whole-massages", which includes a tea
shop where she serves hot trocks to international
acclaim. (Kiki and she visit each other frequently.)
The princesses were last seen in Michael's wake as he
headed South, as well, to find his family of origin.
He was planning a longish visit in Greylands before
moving on. And as we all know, wherever Michael goes,
there go the princesses (and now Lucy, too ... when
Havoc isn't keeping her 'safe' in that secret spot of
his, that is).
Harold decided to give away the Viking business, especially
now that it seems his papa would remarry and produce
more heirs for him to squabble with. He was tired
of hiding out in distant places, getting dirty and
staying that way until eventually nobody would come
near him because of his smell and those festering
boils.
Now that he has new teeth and really spiffy
clothes, not to mention the fact that he sports the
aroma of aromatic oils, he's headed South to some
big cities where he's gotten modelling jobs with
magazines like GQ. Because of his title as Prince,
he's the toast of the Jet-Set, persued by many rich, fabulously
gorgeous women (who often tell him he smiles just
like Michael Greyeyes).
Zan's gone back to Greylands where she continues to
give massages to the Lord Hi-Greylander as required
(have aromatic oils, will travel), and also trains
newcomer men in the arts of massage and aromatherapy,
as well as how to prepare trocks, cucumber sandwiches
and muffins for the women dwelling in Michael's kingdom.
She'd like to write an opera for Michael ... but
that's another story.
(For heaven's sake, someone pass me a fresh cup of tea
and a trock !! I'm parched and hungry with all this
writing.)

Re WRITING ... full-stop .... - Zan, Jun/20/2001 01:03:45
Well, gee ... I mean ... I ... um ... that REALLY was
just a short bit compared to what I USUALLY write on
other projects. Too much, huh ?
Can't say I'm sorry, though, 'cause participating in
these story thingies has broken a serious writer's
block I've had for at least a year and a half.
(My supervisor at uni. was despairing of my ever finishing
the thesis. I was despairing 'cause I haven't written
anything for myself for closer to two years !! This
is tantamount to death for a creative person who expresses
herself in that way.)
So anyway, we're now to free to move on, eh ? If I
had to look at one more hairy Viking, I was gunna
hurl !! Never used so much wax in my life as I did
in those camps and villages; I found it all so
objectionable. At least our Lord Hi-Greylander wasn't
/isn't hirsuite !!

Federation
Star Ship 'Voyager' before the Evil 'Nark' found it first, and blew his
sister, who was
an officer aboard the lost ship, and all its crew, into oblivion!.......

Skipped Parts
Author: Jeri, Jun/20/2001 02:51:36
Just finished watching Skipped Parts. I'm not sure what I was expecting
to see,
but it's not what I saw.

I won't give anything away, except to say it's certainly a 'different'
type of
movie!

to see it so soon????????????????
Re: What? - Jeri, Jun/20/2001 12:13:14

Hank, Lydia and the Moose, a.k.a. 'The Bathtub' Scene - Jeri, Jun/20/2001 12:29:52
I really don't want to give a whole lot away about the movie, especially
if you
guys have to wait another week to see it.
I think what surprised me about the movie was that I was sort of expecting
something
along the lines of SWCH, at least in the love scenes. You know, that raw,
sensual
passion that we all love about Michael. That's not there in Skipped Parts.
Don't get me wrong...Michael's sexy as hell in the movie, but heck, it'd
be darn near
impossible for him not to be.
The love scenes in this movie are more playful than sensual. There is a
bathtub
scene, and yes, there is a moosehead, but no passionate tussles in the
soap bubbles.
It was just Hank and Lydia taking a bath together and her son walks into
the bathroom
and finds them there. LOL..Hank (Michael) looks decidedly uncomfortable
to be found in
such a situation, but it doesn't seem to bother Lydia or her son one bit.
So, I was a tiny bit disappointed that there was no passionate embraces
in the bathtub,
but hey, Michael wasn't hard to look at, ya know? WhooooHooooo!
Jeri
Thanx Jeri but... - Kiki, Jun/20/2001 13:34:47
....but how'd ya manage to see it before the rest of us?? loved your description,
thanks. PS can
we all have a pajama party at your house & watch your DVD??? Luv,Kiki
pajama party at Jeris' tonite - Kiki, Jun/20/2001 13:42:44
sorry Jeri just read your other message. okay everybody Canada's real nice
this time of
year. bring your sleeping bag's & flannel pj's f/ the party at Jeri's
tonite!!! I'll bring
plenty of mead. can we roast trocks over the camp fire like marshmello's?
(can i bring
BT/TB to keep me warm it gets kinda cold there at nite?)
Kiki
LOL..Sure! The more, the merrier..... - Jeri, Jun/20/2001 19:36:20
I'm not sure about the roasting trocks over an open campfire (the
neighbours might object), but you may need a little something extra
to keep you warm...it is a tad cool at night here.
Mind you, there is one scene in the movie where Michael, a.k.a. 'Hank'
goes running around in a spiffy pair of baby blue boxers (and nothing
else). That'll warm you up..LOL!!
Jeri
Oh thanks! - Nellie, Jun/20/2001 21:17:06
Thanks for the "baby blue boxers only"
We are having a dam heat wave here and
l'm doing my best to stay cool!(Bet he looks cute)
Just like the styles, U.S.is the last to
get them.---er, videos, not shorts!!!!
Marlene said she had asked when she
can expect Skipped parts and the l think she said
they told her around the first week in July. (Amazon)
l order from Big Star and have no idea.
l still think Michael should not have cut his hair.
What happens if he gets offered a big part in major
film where they want him looking like he did as
Crazy Horse. Will he turn it down because he'll
have to wear a wig?? after all, look what he did
for a pilot just because the wig didn't look
right. Could you cry??!!!!
Re: Oh thanks! - Carol, Jun/20/2001 22:02:20
The suspense is killing me. Michael in Baby blue boxer shorts
and nothing else!!! WOW!!! and double WOW!!!
BABYB BLUE BOXERS!!!!! - Marlene, Jun/21/2001 07:18:31
I got a half working modem but had to react to the
boxers. ------WOOOW and double WOOOW!
I can hardly wait for my copy of Skipped Parts.
Jeri!!!!! - Kiki, Jun/21/2001 11:44:50
Baby blue boxer's, you trying to kill us or something girl?
that was mean. knowing we have to wait till June 26 when
its' released down here!!! Hmmm in the mean time maybe i'll
go over to KMart. & get some blue boxer's at the bluelight
special for BoyToy to match his blue eyes. & pretend its'
Hank Elkrunner!!!! Maybe KMart has a special on mooseheads
for the bathtub, in the Martha Stewart section??? Kiki
Heya Kiki...sorry about that....*g* - Jeri, Jun/21/2001 14:53:03
I just didn't want to give folks the impression that the
movie doesn't
have it's...err....highlights????, especially after I said it
was definitely
a different sort of movie.
This movie surprised me in so many ways, not just the
storyline. The commedy
spots come when you least expect them and the
interplay between the characters
of Hank and Lydia is great.
Now as for that moosehead...it's either a sporting
goods store or Toys R Us.
Hmmmmm...after watching Hank and Lydia...it's gotta
be Toys R Us...*giggle*.
Jeri
LOL...just wait Carol! - Jeri, Jun/21/2001 15:00:19
..till you see him in the bathtub!!
Jeri
I agree, but what can we do *sigh* - Jeri, Jun/21/2001 02:53:01
From the sounds of it, this will be one of the last new films we'll see
Michael
with long hair. Michael's gorgeous no matter how long his hair is (or isn't
as is now the case), but there's just something about that long hair.
When he first appears in SP, I thought "OMG..no man has a right to be
that
beautiful". The hair...the body (I just about hyperventillated watching
Crazy
Horse)..the talent. The man has it all and then some.
It's great to see Michael in a contemporary movie. We'll just have to
hope that
somewhere along the way, he's going to get the break into the big
Hollywood
projects that he deserves. Right??
Jeri
Big Hollywood Projects for Michael! - Marlene, Jun/21/2001 07:24:27
I agree Jeri!
Hope Michael gets some real big time parts and
gains stardom. He is so talented and handsome!

Hi gals and guys, sorry haven't been around too much ...never mind, if
you can't have Marnie
sightings ...how about some of the Hi-G? Yes, got to see Skipped Parts,
which I really enjoyed ...MG
was, of course, stupendous! Plus I think he'd been working out ...if only
to heft JJL up the stairs!!
Now, ....thought you might like to see a "Small Wonder"....but of what?
Hank in the bathtub
.....*thump* ....Hank in those baby blue boxers? * thump, thump* ...or
Hank being rather forcefully
seduced by JJL?!! Nah, I chose the most vicarious image of all! A man cooking
supper! *teehee* (It
was macaroni and cheese again ...seems to be a bit of a theme with him!LOL)
Marnie:)
*Marnie ducks and runs from the room...*

Gee Marnie, you really like to live dangerously huh? LOL!!!
Have to agree with you...our Mikey does look rather...ahemm...
'buff' in SP eh?? Nice....verrrrrrry nice.
Mind you, it's a little hard on little 'ole me. Every time the
man takes off his shirt, I hyperventillate...but what a way to
go!!!
Jeri
Mac & cheese? - Nellie, Jun/22/2001 22:40:36
So where else did he cook?
was it is Lost child?
l remember him washing dishes and clearing the
table.
Aaww! can't you picture him at home in
his baby blue skivvies, cooking macaroni. teehee!!
with the cocketiel perched on his head!!!and Nancy
in the corner laughing and taking his picture!!
l can see it now!!!

'Twas in "The Hero" (though he just complained about the food a lot, didn't
actually
see him cook it)where Frank (MG) and Charlie (Peter Kelly Gaudreault)seemed
to live
on 'mac and cheese'...and 'Cap'n Crunch' in rootbeer!
Hey Jeri, Hank asks a question near the end of the movie ...How many women
d'ya
think would run up coffee pot in hand?!! teehee
Marnie(who'll really be in trouble when the others find out what she's
talking
about!!LOL)
*throwing out the Early Greyeyes tea and putting the coffee pot on ....gotta
keep it
coming!!*
Oh Ya! - Jeri, Jun/23/2001 02:26:54
LOL...I know EXACTLY which line you're talking about. Just about
choked on my tea when he came out with that one!!! Under most
circumstances, he'd be WEARING the coffeepot after a line like that!
How'd you like the fit of Lydia's uniform??? LOL...
Jeri
Awright! now...... - Nellie, Jun/23/2001 03:14:59
please stop talking about the movie scenes-
it's hard on us who still have to see it!!
You lucky rascals!!!!!!!!!!

You might be a Michael Greyeyes fan if you camp outside
the video store waiting to buy/rent his latest movie release.
Sad, but true.... - Jeri, Jun/23/2001 20:50:58
..but hey, I wasn't the first to rent the movie in my local store. There
were 4 available to rent (VHS) and I took the last one on the shelf.
So who do you suppose rented the first three on the very first day of
it's
release??
hehehehe

Alright Marnie and Jeri -- enough is enough !! The
rest of us haven't had an opportunity to see Michael
cooking, bathing or ... in baby blue boxers, OR saying
really awful lines. So ... look ... just cut it out
until we get a chance to see the blinking thing !!
Meantime -- do private email and stop torturing us,
'kay !!?? :-{
Okeydokey...I promise..... - Jeri, Jun/23/2001 20:57:14
Just when do you guys get to see it?? I still don't understand why it
wasn't released at the same time.
Jeri

Homepage: FAQ 4
Ah well, the old timers know I'm a terrible tease ...and besides ...er
....this is a Michael
Greyeyes Message Board (...and we certainly ain't off topic!!)...where,
gosh, we discuss
his projects and promote the same ...and drive everyone into such a frenzy
that they
must rush out to buy ALL his videos! Besides which, Jeri and I have both
neither
'busted a plot' nor given actual dialogue. However ...should you really
wish me stop
posting 'small wonders' ...I'll consider it. Hhhmm? Nah ...and just to
ease poor
Marlenes's 'blue boxer' quandary ....here's a teeny-tiny glimpse!
Marnie:)(somebody STOP me!!!LOL)
Oh Marnie, you bad girl--thankyou! - Nellie, Jun/24/2001 02:04:11
l saw that picture and l gasped and clutched my
chest! "Medics, help!! l'm having a Greyeyes attack!"
AY-AY-AY!AY-AY-AY!AY-YA-AY!AY-AY-AY!AY-AY-AY!!!!!
*Medics calm hyperventilating Nellie who's gone into
a near state of shock due to unexpectingly seeing
somthing sooo absolutely magnificent*
I tried to stop you !!! *g* - Zan, Jun/24/2001 09:17:56
But of course, no one listens to little ole me !! ;-}
Now you've gone all the way in the torture stakes and
put the Magnificent One (in blue boxer shorts, no less)
on the messageboard ... Makes me want to start a new
story line on Michael as the next middle-weight champion
of the Western World ... or something ... that requires
him to appear in those blue numbers ... again ... only
SATIN this time ... Of course he could always be a
surf lifesaver on a beautiful white beach here in Oz
saving princesses (and us other mere mortals) on a
daily (or hour-to-hour) basis. Ummmm -- mouth-to-mouth
resusitation on a regular basis ... Sounds like a plan
to me !! (Sydney) Harbour Watch ...
Satin Baby Blues - Marlene, Jun/24/2001 22:31:04
I'd love to see Michael in sharp satin boxer shorts
in the prize ring. Of course not for real(only in a
story----wouldn't want that handsome face getting
messed up for real)
I wonder if his pet,Lucy has learned any words as
yet. I think that type of bird could learn to talk.
If so Michael and Nancy will probably teach it
ballet routines!
PS! - Marlene, Jun/24/2001 22:38:27
It was a toss up last night between me watching
Stolen Women Captured Hearts or Crazy Horse!
Crazy Horse won out.
I'll be so glad when my dvd of Skipped Parts arrives
-----I checked with Amazon again----June 27th tru
July 3rd or something like that.
Oh well that will give me time to hitch up the DVD
player
that I got months ago! TEE HEE!
SWCH or CH - Nellie, Jun/25/2001 03:33:19
l chose Stolen Women. Love the scene where
she fits the shirt to his shoulders moving
aside that beautiful hair we will never see
again after Skippy, and of course, The Kiss!!!!
Hold On Nellie! - Marlene, Jun/25/2001 06:03:01
You never can tell in the intertainment business!
Michael might have to let his hair grow again if it
means a big part(Staring Role)
I loved that scene of Janine moving his hair aside,
also! The final emotional filled ending I could play
over and over and still get moved to
tears!
LOL...You've done it now Marnie!!! - Jeri, Jun/24/2001 11:08:01
ROTFL...if that little glimse of heaven doesn't start a stampede to
the local video stores when the movie's released in the U.S., I don't
know what will!!!
Hmmmmm....think I'll pay another visit to the video store today..
hehehe

Oh! Those baby blues!!! - Carol, Jun/24/2001 19:12:55
Thanks, Marnie, what a picture!!! I give it a Baby, Oh baby rating!!!
What a tease you are!!!*g* Had to content myself with a rerun of "Crazy
Horse"
Zan, I like the idea of Michael in baby blue bathing trunks
coming to save me. If this be drowning pour another MG video on me.
More mouth to mouth, please! I'm not resuscitated yet!

I was wandering if anyone got to see Stolen Women Captured Hearts&
The episode of
Millenium when it came out? I dont know because I followed the proper time
and date
according to the calander but I missed them. So did they really come out
after all?
Could some informaed fan please inform me? I feel like left in the dark.
Thank you if you do...

SWCH - Marnie, Jun/26/2001 06:03:23
Hi Jade, SWCH was on as scheduled ...several fans saw it ...and a whole
bunch of new
fans came and signed the petition to have it released on video. Plus the
participants on
the Lifetime Message Boards were proposing MG for hunk of the month right
after it
was shown and others just wanted to know who the heck that gorgeous guy
was!! It may
be you got the channels confused, it was on the Lifetime Movie Network
which, I
believe, has to be subscribed to and not the Lifetime TV network which
is available on
regular cable. (Though it has been shown on that too ....just not this
time) As for
Millennium I don't get FX either so hopefully someone else will know if
it was aired as
advertised!
Marnie:)
Author: Marnie , Jun/26/2001 06:59:27
Hi all you US residents, Enjoy "Skipped Parts" today ...I understand it
should be in SOME
video stores ...so better run to get your copy!teehee
Also, drop in on the OS (click above)....they have more questions answered.
Hey, Nellie
...seems you were right about who Lucy is named after!*g*
Marnie:)
Lucy - Nellie, Jun/27/2001 02:53:47
Yep. That's why l said he can now holler
"Lucy l'm home!" when he comes thru the door.
Maybe eventually they will get a Ricky!!
Hey Michael do you know the words to "l Love Lucy?"
Sure is my favorite show too.
P>S>l have a red cat l named Lucy.
Mr.ED!!!! - Marlene, Jun/27/2001 04:29:30
Seems to me I read someplace that Michael use to
watch the reruns of Mister Ed--the Talking Horse
series also.
Maybe they will get a Ricky someday.
They sure do love their "Lucy"
Skipped parts FINALLLY!!!!
Author: Kiki, Jun/27/2001 14:53:13
got to see Skipped parts last nite & LOVED IT!!!! cant' wait to watch
it again,what a great performance by
MG, one of his best yet. What did you all think?? Luv, Kiki
Not yet :( - Carol, Jun/27/2001 23:58:45
Went to rent SP at my fav. video store. Even though they
said they would have it in they have not received it
yet, from their distributor. Big disappointment.:(
Poor carol....... - Kiki, Jun/28/2001 00:17:30
Carol i just watched for the 2nd time. hey try seeing the trailor lovescene
in slow-mo!!!! *wink*
wow MG is SOOOO good in this movie.
any body else notice the scene at the kitchen table. Hank & lidia are
argueing, there's a loaf of
bread & some eggs on the table. Hank gets up all angry& leaves.
Lidia is there at the table with
the bread but no eggs in site!! Blooper???
my cousin's used to live in Wyoming. Xmas they have tons of snow, in the
movie they are riding
there bikes on Xmas & almost no snow!!
yea i know i need to get a life, instead of looking for blooper's!!!
Luv, Liki
Impatient - Nellie, Jun/28/2001 02:07:44
Since the copy l ordered hasn't been sent yet,
l called our local video store and sure enough they
had just gotten it in so l reserved it. l went over
there and as l turned the corner my eye caught the
poster- quickly l looked for Michael in the montage
-Negative! so no picture and no name. Made me mad.
They should have included Michael in the poster.
Anyway l am going to watch it tonite.
can't wait to see it!
SP Cover - Jeri, Jun/28/2001 11:33:38
Hi Nellie,
Yes, I noticed that too. He plays a substantial part in the film and
yet to look at the movie poster or video cover, you'd never know he was
in the film.
I guess to the distributors, he just isn't that well known. (What do they
know huh??..LOL).
So how did you enjoy the film?
Jeri
SP - Nellie, Jun/28/2001 21:24:22
Well l loved Michael in it. He looked terrific,
(as usual)except for that stupid white hat.
The black one was much better. And his performance
was tops.
Oh that eggs disappearance was very noticable.
Sloppy work in continuity.
l took video back this AM and gal that runs store is
VERY impressed with Michael's looks and performance.
He'll gather a bunch more fans, even
tho the publicity idiots or whatever you call them,
screwed up.
l have always thought it was so ridiculous that
PB got billing over Michael in SWCH. l'd never
even heard of him.
Michael was included in The Lost Child video cover,
even tho' he had a very small part in it.
Go figure!
What about the rest of us sods ?!! - Zan, Jun/28/2001 02:51:19
Asked at my video shop(s) -- they've never even heard
of SP !! Some times I loathe living in a city at the
bum-end of a continent at the bum-end of the earth !!
All I want to do is ... watch our object of devotion ...
sort of ... bloopers or not !!
Nellie -- I think we should write to the producers of
the movie en masse and complain about MG's non-appearance/
credit in the film. How blinking dare they !!!
GOOD IDEA! - Marlene, Jun/28/2001 05:02:17
Zan, Iagree we must be able to complain to someone,
somehow!!!
I did see the video cover on Amazon---It made me mad
also.
And in SWCH they listed Bergan but not Michael in
advertisements.
Just whose responsible for this outrage?????
Any ideas,Marnie?
Mystifying - Marnie, Jun/28/2001 14:00:06
Well, that would be whomever is working on the promotions and design
...obviously they haven't figured out what a draw he'd be on the cover.
I mean,
he is one of the most photogenic guys I've seen (not that I think he'd
be
Quasimodo in person, LOL) but he has cheekbones you could ski down and
the
camera just seems to love him. Now you'd think with all that ....plus being
one of
the principals it would be a "no-brainer" to feature him ...especially
as I think
it would be mostly women renting the film in the first place. Just goes
to show
that some people don't know a good thing when they see it! *g*
However with SWCH ....I could not figure out why MG did not have first
or
second billing ...I know at that point PB was more well known but MG was
the
male lead! It's mystifyng!
Marnie
There, there.... - Marnie, Jun/28/2001 14:06:21
On the other hand Sonja did get to see "Fallen Knight" first and got to
torture us
with snippets!! LOL I think it was in Australia too, before it ever got
to North
America. *g*
Marnie
Here Neither!
- Marlene, Jun/29/2001 01:43:38
Well I tried to find SP among the new arrivals today.
No luck! They said they won't be getting it in either!
They don't know why! And that's here in Hot Springs
So Dakota!
However I checked my order with Amazon and it went
out today! I'll get it sometime,just don't sabbatage
the boat it's on Zan, as it goes around the horn!
Got it! Saw it! Loved it! - Carol, Jun/29/2001 02:05:16
All I can say is WoooooooooHoooooooooooooo!Michael is very HOT!!!
I tried a few other video stores.I asked the clerk it they
had SP and the kid behind the counter said, "Yeah I just put it out
an hour ago, we've got 3 copies, it's the one with
Drew Barrymore" I said "Yes, and Jennifer Jason Leigh
and Michael Greyeyes." He looked at me funny and said
"Who?" As he picked up the video box we both looked at
the picture and no Michael! His name did not seem to
even be listed on the front!!Unbelievable!!! Anyway
I finally viewed it and Michael is truly Magnificent!!!
ITA..he's even gorgeous when he's playing.... - Jeri, Jun/29/2001 03:09:38
drunk! Never thought I'd see Michael portraying someone who 10
sheets
to the wind.
That white hat though....!
Jeri
White Hat! - Marlene, Jun/29/2001 04:39:12
-----and Drunk?????
I sure wish the mail in the 2001 would be a little
bit faster. It gets more nerve raking with each
little bit about SP
Oh well,they say all good things come to those that
wait! Michael is worth it!!!!!!!
Skipped Parts - Carol, Jun/29/2001 22:36:57
Marlene--this movie is terrific!!! Can't wait till
you see it!The only way they could have made it better
is with more scenes of MG.I told everybody in work
about
it. Some are going to rent it this weekend. I expect
a full report from them on Monday. LOL.
I'm feeling sad for our fellow fans, around the world,
that
can not view this movie:( Do I need to get my uncle
Guido after anybody for this tragedy?
Uncle Guido ? - Zan, Jun/30/2001 04:50:46
Yes -- get your Uncle right on this situation ... and
the case for having SWCH brought out on video
IMMEDIATELY !!
I mean, here you guys are seeing this fabulous man
doing all sorts of things I'm interested in seeing,
and ... and ... kissing ... one of those long, nice
ones with plenty of lip ... and ... sigh.
Marlene -- sorry, Mate, but if I knew which boat
your
video was on, I'd be rummaging through the
containers
as we 'speak,' I'm THAT desperate !! ;-}
White hat .... ummmm ... - Zan, Jun/30/2001 04:54:30
Yeah -- Marnie put a still of the Big M. on the email
wearing that number. Took my ... breath ... something
... right out of my lungs. You forget just how
gorgeous the man is, then you see a picture, and ...
Author: Sonja, Jun/29/2001 06:01:08
All of you gals who are bragging you've SEEN Skipped Parts (SP) *sulk*
(LOL), it might be
an idea to hop over to the OS GB (Official Site Guest Book) and leave an
encouraging
message for Michael there?! *taking a deep breath and trying not to turn
green with envy!*
He does read his messages and everyone likes to hear they've done a good
job! So let him
know how wonderful you thought he is in this movie!
Sonja *dreaming of the day we will FINALLY get SP here in South Africa*
(sigh)
Great suggestion Sonja! - Jeri, Jun/29/2001 18:29:03
I've done just as you suggested...thanks! Is there no possibility of
getting Skipped Parts out there?
Jeri
SP in SA - Sonja, Jun/30/2001 08:17:17
There's ALWAYS a chance well get 'Skipped Parts' here. I must call our
local
distributers and see if they have it on their catalogues, and if not, put
in a
reguest! As Marnie mentioned before, WE got to see "The Minion" (or "Fallen
Knight" as it was renamed later) before the American continent! *g* My
one and
only 'scoop' LOL!!
