Subject: Review: Wisdom for Con PoRA(tm)
OK, I'm checking all the great advice from the collective wisdom of the
experienced Con-goers, making a list of what I need for Reunion:
Comfortable shoes (Sandy)
Lots of water (Debra, Erin, ZK)
Know where the restrooms are (Debra, Erin, ZK)
Rest up in advance (Jen, ZK)
More film than I think I'll need (Pat)
Simple clothes: Jeans, tee-shirts, a sweater just in case (Mary, ZK)
A note pad (Mary, Jenni, Tammy)
A big ol' bag (Mary, ZK)
Non-perishable, non-bug-attracting food, preferably something relatively
healthy (ZK, Lynn)
Aspirin/meds (ZK)
And most important of all: A positive attitude, a smile and expectations
of much fun and friendship (Sandy, Mary, ZK, Pat,)
Thanks, everyone, and I'm looking forward to meeting you!!

Subject: another Raven question
On today's Sci-Fi channel episode, the storyline revolved around the immie
Morgan whose son was killed in 1897 and he has been out for vengeance ever
since. Now, I missed about the first 15 minutes, but I was wondering about
this "son" business. Did they say something about him adopting a son early
in the episode, or is this supposed to be his biological son?
Thanks,
Barbara

Someplace in the ep, Morgan mentions he adopted the boy when he was 5 years
old.
But, really, there was so much else screwed up in that ep, big & small....
An Immie killing a mortal on HG, an observable light show when there's no
Immie close enough to take the Q, the store being called _Morgan_ & Son
rather than Kenworthy & Son, obviously re-used footage, Amanda being all
sweetness & light in the FB w/ no ulterior motive, a ridiculous plate-glass
BHg. Nicky brandishes his silly gun no less than 6 times. Bert sports a
bandaged wrist early on for no reason; Panzer's hint it would be removed to
reveal a Watcher tattoo never came true. This was one of the worst of
Raven's 22 eps.

That's funny, because a friend of mine said that the
same sort of thing had happened in the "Hunters"
episode of the original series (which I've never
seen). Then again, he also said that Jim Byrnes also
guest starred in that episode, which I can't confirm
so far.

He IS a freshly ex-cop and now a security agent. What
did you expect him to do?

That's open for speculation. It is possible that the
actor playing Bert had really hurt his wrist at some
point and it just wasn't covered up well. On the
other hand, perhaps footage was filmed that would have
shown the Watcher tatoo, but was cut out for some
reason. Then the bandage was just a casualty of
sloppy editing, like some of Michael Myers' behaviour
in the end of "Halloween: H20".
