The Month at a L&C Related Glance...

Things to do for each Day of February...

February 1--Eat some M&Ms...but only eat the red, yellow, and blue ones. Skittles or jelly beans will work, too.
2--
Try to use the word "chumpy" in a sentence.
3--
Make a L&C scrapbook...and if you already have one, update it with new stuff!
4--
Watch those "Prankster" episodes.
5
--Decide who you like better...Ching #1 or Ching #2 (well, who's cuter? Don't answer that)
6
--If you don't normally wear glasses, wear them today--and see if anyone still recognizes you.
7
--Memorize a couple of episodes...
8
--Think about L&C. Dream about L&C. And Quote it as often as possible. Can you say "obesessed"? :)
9--
Watch the Tempus episodes (all of them, from "Tempus Fugitive" to "Lois and Clarks").
10
--Search your local Warner Brothers store for new Superman merchandise.
11--
Can you believe it's been two years since "I Now Pronounce You" aired? The first episode in the memorable clone/amnesia/wedding arc aired on February 11, 1996.
12--Wear your Lois & Clark T-shirt, sweatshirt or Superman shirt...don't have one? Wear red and blue!
13--
Make up nicknames for abc. They can be nice...they can be mean...whatever *you* want...
14--
It's Valentine's Day...so if by chance you don't have plans, make a date with your favorite L&C episode.
15--It's Jimmy's birthday--although no one's *really* sure how old he is!
16--
Dream about Dean/Teri.
17--If you have a L&C web page that hasn't been updated in over two months--update it!
18--
Visit other FOLCs' L&C webpages and sign their guestbooks.
19
--Catch up on your fanfic reading. Get to reading all those "fifth season" fanfics--they're really good!
20--
Write your own fanfic. If you've never tried it before, maybe you'll surprise yourself and discover you enjoy it!
21--
Do whatever you want!!! Who are we to tell you what to do today?
22
--Okay, admit it. When was the last time you watched "The People V. Lois Lane"?
23--
Have fun--make a L&C collage or something!
24--
Eat Clark Bars
25--
Watch all of those L&C Christmas episodes just for the heck of it!
26--
Repeat the words "obesession is a good thing" over and over and then eat some Chocolate icecream.
27--
Send that fanfic you wrote to the fanfic archive.
28--
Clark's birthday! I wonder if there'll be another *surprise* party this year? :)

Star Sightings

As you all probably know by now, Teri Hatcher is one of the stars of the movie Tomorrow Never Dies.

Also, David Warner (Jor-El from "The Foundling") and Mark Lindsay Chapman (Jen Mai from "Lord of the Flys" and "Battleground Earth") both appear in the movie Titanic.

Both movies are still in theaters in most areas!

Name: Erin
E-Mail Address: Air36@AOL.com
Birthday: October 9
Favorite L&C Episode: Oh, gosh! Do I have to choose? There are so many, but instead of listing every episode (Which would take forever!) I'm just gonna say "Seasons Greeding's" and "Virtually Destroyed" (written by the one and only DEAN!!!!)
Favorite L&C Quote: Ok, there are a lot, so just bear with me!-----------
"I find that most of life is a frightening hallucination." Baron Sunday (Never On Sunday)
Clark: Lois, Please get a grip! Lois: Oooh! I'd love to! (So would I! ) (Pheremone, My Lovely)
"I try not to say anything's impossibe" H.G. Wells (Lois and Clarks)
"Every woman in love thinks her man looks like Superman" (SO True) Lois (Pheremone, My Lovely)
"Explain something to me, you eat like an eight-year-old, yet you look like Mr. Hardbody, what's your secret? And can I have it?" Lois (Pilot)
"What is post-modernist angst?" Cat (Smart Kids)
"Who's the new tight-end?" Cat (Pilot) (And I found a keychain that says "I may not know a lot about football, but I do know a tight end when I see one" in memory of the quote)
"I want you to find a super guy" Lucy (Pilot)
"I said nine, I'd thought you'd be naked-ahem-ready." Lois (Pilot)
"I do read" Cat (Strange Visitor)
"You're pretty weird, but it works for ya." Lois (Strange Visitor)
"Superman, on TV? I don't think so." Lois (I'm Looking through you)
"If you opened that window and told me you could fly, I'd back you up. I'd miss you, but I'd back you up." Perry to Clark (I've got a crush on you)
"He's a man, I'm a woman. Want me to draw you a diagram?" Lois (I've got a crush on you)
"I'll remember that the next time we're in a closet." Clark (I've got a crush on you)
"Well I tried to warn him about those amber waives of grain" Lois (The Green, Green glow of home)
"This is a gavel. And when I pound it, it is the international symbol for you guys to shut up!" Judge Diggs (Man of Steel Bars)
"I win, you lose, we're both happy" Lois (Honeymoon in Metropolis)
"My wife would know I love her the way she is, why would she dye her hair red?" Clark (The Ides of Metropolis) (Something I just thought of--Teri did have that period with the red hair. (Not in the show, but in real life) So I guess his "wife" did dye her hair red. (Ok, so I'm reaching)
"Don't Edit my tantrums Clark, I won't be responsible!" Lois (The Foundling)
"Right now I'd like to drop your britches and tan your hide like cheap leather." Martha (Season's Greedings)
"The Only thing that would ruin this would be a commercial" Tempus (Tempus Anyone?)
"Duh!" (You all better know who says this one)
"I'm not sure, but I think I hate her" Lois (Tempus Anyone?)
Clark: "Some things never change." Lois: "In any lifetime" (Soul Mates)
(Believe me, there are more, but I won't continue! BUT!!! I will do my favorite scenes of the show! Don't worry, there aren't too many!
From "Season's Greedings"--
Perry: Lois! Those squares better be in magic marker!
Lois: I--
Clark: Oooh! Lois is in trouble, Lois is in trouble!
Lois: Well I have all the rats and you don't have any!
Clark: I could get them if I wanted!

Ok, I'm not sure where the next two are from, but I'm sure ya'll do.
Lois to her shrink:
I just want one man, one whole man! And what do I have to choose from? I've got one guy who's really, really great only he disappears every time I try to talk to him. And one guy who's really exciting to be with only he won't talk about his work. What do people talk about if they don't talk about what they did all day? And one guy who is out of this world-literally.
Dr. Friskan: I thought you'd given up the Superman fantasy.
Lois: Well my head has, but my heart is just--conflicted!

Lois: Planning a yard sale? No wait, that's a form of distancing, my therapist. I know I have a therapist, can you believe it? She says that I say things like that so I don't actually have to deal with anything, it's all very complicated has to do with some boring childhood trauma, can I come in?

And from "Pheremone, My Lovely"
Lois: Well, you were sprayed, how come you didn't fall for me?
Clark: I guess I'm just not attracted to you Lois.
Lois: LIAR! You are SO attracted to me.
Clark: I guess not.
Lois: Guess so.
Clark: Guess not.
Lois: Guess so.
Clark: Can we get back to the story now please?
Lois: Fine by me.
Started watching Lois & Clark [when?]: The episode "Honeymoon in Metropolis" was the first episode I ever saw, and it got me hooked! So I guess the first time I saw Lois and Clark was on December 12, 1993.
Owns L&C merchandise, including: A T-shirt (Which I'm wearing as I write this), the episodes, a Superman pin, 2 keychains, 2 Superman pens, a poster, a framed 8x10 picture, an episode guide that I made (which came in handy when I was doing the quote portion of this), a Superman ring, and a Superman action figure.
Favorite Color: blue
Lives In: Florida
Her Web Page Address Is: I don't have one! But I love everyone else's!
Thinks the cutest TV star ever is: Um, ya know that guy who was on that show for 4 years. Yeah, and I think he played two characters, one wore spandex or something. Ya know who I mean? (Ok, ok, just because I KNOW some people are going to take me seriously, I do know the man's name---DEAN CAIN!!!!!!)
Pets?: I have a bird named Cappy. (We're looking to rename him)
Thinks Lois & Clark Is: *SUPER*

The Fanfic Side
by Rachel Madden (no relation to John)

Hey FoLCs! How's it goin' out there in LnC World? I've got a column here that you guys will probably like, and if you don't you can complain to me.....but i probably won't do anything about it.... Now, all you people out there have to do is send in any type ( poems, songs, stories, etc.) of fanfic you might have to me (short stories are preferred), and i'll sift through it, and then we can post it. I'll give recognition to the author, and i'll give a little blurb about the fanfic. Now, as Molly and GG said before, only G, PG and PG-13 allowed! Sorry guys, but i won't post it if there's anything offensive in it. Well, i think that's about it! I can't wait to hear from all of you! E-mail: Scardno007@aol.com
Thanks! rachel :)

Hey, guys....guys! Lay off the ketchup! Oh, sorry about that. I have a posse of elves attacking my house and it seems the salt, tar, and feathers had no effect on them. they're swinging from the chandelier with spaghetti. believe me, you do NOT want to know. alright, enough of this. you people out there, just go ahead and label me nuts, because you are going to be hearing a LOT more from me!
LnC is my most fa-vor-rite show. i was flipping through the channels one day, let's say, oh, about 3 years ago. and i came upon this mexican looking guy with grey hair and a mustache. he's choking teri ( though i didn't know it then) and in bursts dean and saves her. ( well, almost) so i think to myself, ' man, that is the most gorgeous guy i have ever seen in my entire life.' so i watched the end of the show. oh, and if you guys haven't figured it out yet, it was the ep, " Witness." i found out what time it came on next time( which was every sunday night then), and from then on, i was hooked. i watched it every week that i could, and if i couldn't, i freaked out. so now, with LnC gone, and only reruns to substantiate me, i'm still hooked, and i'm going to see Tomorrow Never Dies in about an hour!
so that's all that i have to say.
see ya'll later, the elves are starting to throw the china......

I'm Babbling, aren't I? :)
by Molly

Hiya FOLCsters! :) As of today (February 1st), I have officially been an obsessed FOLC for three years, four months, and twenty-eight days. Or something like that--LOL (I'm not very good at the whole math thing!) But naturally I have been watching L&C since it premiered...which was, like...uh...four years, four months, and...twenty days ago? Nineteen? Like I said...I am not friends with math. However, as we all know, even after all these years, L&C is *still* the best TV show, right? RIGHT? That's right. Since all of you know that, I guess that's all I have to say...for now...so, until next time, remember to watch L&C three times a day and always look both ways before crossing the street. :)
