Bite Me

Leave it to my brother to destory my favorite myth of all time. A scientist has destroyed the theory of vampire existence through the ever awful tool of math. I have always loved vampires. I in fact wanted to be one when I was about six years old - but I still think that that's a phase most kids go through. When I watched Underworld, I was rooting for the vampires while Brittnay took the side of the lycans. I love the vampires particularly in that movie because they're clearly stuck in that whole 19th century dark gothic phase and there always seemed to be a party going on in the vampire mansion. One of my favorite books is Twilight by Stephenie Meyer about a girl, Bella, who moves to a new town and meets Edward who, yep. You guessed it. He's a vampire. And who can forget Dark Shadows? I wasn't introduced to Barnabas Collins until creator Dan Curtis re-vamped [no pun intended] his classic show for the Sci-Channel in 1991. Bill and I watched it every week and taped all 12 episodes before it was tragically cancelled. I loved that show. I still love that show. Who wouldn't love a show about a governess who moves to Maine and becomes romantically involved with a vampire? I actually plan on buying the series and I don't care what some stupid scientist says. I'm still going to believe in vampires. I never was a fan of math anyway.
