The series picks up with Dracula arriving in London, posing as an American entrepreneur. Dracula's front? He pretends to want to bring modern science to the Victorian society, but his real intentions are revenge on the people who wronged him centuries ago. However, it's not all rage and death because Dracula falls in love with a woman who appears to be a reincarnation of his dead wife.
I am cautiously excited about this. Dracula posing as an American? And the reincarnation plot AGAIN? I'm not thrilled about those. But it's got vampires AND going to be quasi-Victorian, so I'm shallow and will watch it.
If a British newspaper report is correct (and, oh, how we hope it is), Mary Poppins and Lord Voldemort will clash in a tense battle scene during Friday's Opening Ceremony of the London Olympics.
Finally, an explanation for Bert's accent!
I can just imagine the brainstorming session. "That show Revenge did pretty well and vampires are hot right now. How can we combine them?"
Ha!
And cool news: Mountain Gorillas in Rwanda were seen destroying poachers' snares.
But he had the good sense to have heart failure around two doctors (his kids), so he got diagnosed and taken care of right away.
Well, that's good! I'll just note that my grandmother has had congestive heart failure for maybe 10 years now. And of course, her major heart problems were 30 years ago.

It's true, though.
Land's End is having a 30% more off everything already on sale sale. For those who enjoy Land's End. They have several cute dresses on sale and several in plus sizes that looked super cute to me.
For men and kids - good prices on basics. We have now stocked mac up on pants and polos for school.
YAY! - the refund on mac's hospital stay in late May finally came through. Insurnace finally paid the hospital and hospital refunded my credit card. That reduces my card balance by half. Now I can actually pay the balance off in a month - too bad I can't do anything about the over $50 in interest charges that balance racked up.
Still, to be looking at a zero balance by the time school starts is happy-making.
I can't decide if I should let myself look at it or not!
msbelle, that's really good news!
My mattress is 12 years old. I bought a memory foam topper a couple years ago and that helped for a while, but lately when I get up in the morning I'm so stiff I can barely walk. I don't know if I really need a new mattress, or if I just need to get back to the gym.
Gorillas dismantling poachers' traps is just about the best thing ever.
