I <3 Vamps (Spike to be exact)
Ok, so this is a non-knitty thing. No knitting whatsoever. Just drooling.
A long, long time ago when I was dating Barry before we got married, he told me about this show, Buffy The Vampire Slayer. I thought, "Oh, I have heard about this, I even remember the movie... let's check it out." On our first anniversary he bought me some Buffy jewelry, a really pretty cross necklace and some earrings. So we like Buffy. But the series ended awhile back and we weren't watching on all that regular a basis. We missed 1/2 of season 6 and most of season 7. (Getting to the point here, promise)
Right. So. The first time I saw Buffy and Spike making the nasty together I was kind of grossed out and completely full of selfrighteous indignation concerning the Buffy/Spike vs Buffy/Angel. Angel was Buffy's true love, Spike was just a possuer... blah blah blah ad nauseum.
But through the miracle of a mere semblance of maturity and reruns on satellite tv (not to mention--- the compete show, all 7 seasons on dvd) I have been able to readjust my opinion on the Buffy/Spike thing. And this is my conclusion:
Buffy and Spike make a hell of a lot more sense than Buffy and Angel. Number one reason... people rarely ever marry our very first "serious (read: sexually intimate)" partner. Ah to be 16 and in love. With a hunky, moody older guy like Angel. But come on, all he ever did was jack around with her head and then he left. So long, see you later I am off to have vampire babies with the vamp who turned me.
Spike loves Buffy. Angel was cursed with a soul-- Spike fought to get one back. And then he gave his life to save hers. I didn't see Angel doing that. Or anything of that magnitude. Sigh. These are fictional characters I know... but...
What makes the show so amazing to me is that unlike so many other shows that start out in High School, the switch to adulthood doesn't quite... work. Think Boy Meets World. Cory was cute but as a college student the pratfalls and tricks were lame and he was still pretty much Cory from Jr High. BUT... on BTVS they matured, they dealt with situations that would change you and did leave them changed. I love it for that. I am not being eloquent or at this point even articulate but there you go... call it sleep deprivation...
and one last thing.
I don't care if the guy who played Spike is older than my dad-- he's still hot. ;)

BREAKING NEWS!!
InterFinancial Holdings, Corp. (OTC Pink Sheets: IFLH - News) announced that they have added
David Cain to their board of directors. David Cain is currently the Chairman of the advisory
board to TTI (Texas Transportation Institute). Senator Cain represented Senate District 2 for
eight years in the Texas Senate and Chaired the Senate State Affairs Subcommittee on
Transportation and served nine terms in the Texas House of Representatives for District 107.
During his twelve years as Chairman of the House Committee on Transportation, Senator Cain�s
efforts on behalf of the people of Texas have been widely recognized. He was named to Texas
Monthly Magazine�s list of Ten Best Legislators, the Dallas Morning News said he was one of
the outstanding legislators of the 73rd session, and the Texas Department of Transportation
awarded him the Russell H. Perry Award in 1995 for his efforts to gain public awareness of
the need for and benefits of transportation facilities in the State of Texas.
Jeffrey C. Bruteyn, Managing Director, stated, We at InterFinancial are proud to have such a
widely recognized Senator join our board and oversee out automotive lending division. His
affiliations and connections to the automotive industry will be invaluable to our company.
Senator Cain will be instrumental in expediting our approval to use a government issued Seller
Finance License.
Seller Finance Licenses are very difficult to obtain and are usually reserved for the Big Boys
with heavy lobbyists. These licenses are highly coveted because it allows the finance company
to collect the entire down payment, instead of paying a portion of it to the taxing authority.
This dramatically helps a finance company�s bottom line if the buyer defaults on the loan.
With the new GPS tracking systems being installed on every car to dramatically improve
repossessions and with Senator Cain on the Board of Directors, InterFinancial Holdings
is ready to take their business to the next level.
Conclusion:
The examples above show the Awesome, Earning Potential of little known Companies
