Possibly..but if Angel had purchased stock ..actually paid for it instead buying on the margin (which is what ruined so many investors in 1929) and if he held on during the bad years..(maybe even buying up stock as others jumped out of the market) .he could have *made* money during the period ..while most people were losing money. If Angel owned 100 stares of Ford Motor in 1929 and held on to them ..he would be very rich indeed today. I would guess he has a bit of money spread out all over Europe and America - plus some gold, some real estate, some jewelry..a few paintings..the usual ill-gotten gains. OTOH..how much money does he really need? He appears to be living in a basement (nicely furnished but still a basement).He has a phone. and electricity bills. Blood..how much is blood these days?? The clothes ..he has worn only two or three outfits so far that I remember. We haven't seen a car. He doesn't have a family to support.

What is the eternal allure of this question and also whether you have to have faith for the cross to work, when they are clearly not currently relevant issues in the Buffyverse?

We hear Angel tell Giles that the Codex isn't lost, just misplaced, and that he can get it. Do we ever find out where he got it from (perhaps in an episode I missed)? Was he the one who stole it in the first place, or did he sneak into the Master's library, or was it just misfiled in the Gile's collection?

Greyson Greyson@tripod.net ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 22 Oct 1997 14:28:40 -0700 (PDT) From: Sonja Marie Subject: BUFFY: ARTICLE: Anthony Stewart Head Hey guys here's the whole Interview with Tony from the TV Guide Site (for those of you not on AG list, someone posted the following URL on the list: http://www.tvguide.com/sci-fi/qa/index.htm ANTHONY STEWART HEAD AKA: Rupert Giles on Buffy the Vampire Slayer Two neighbors like the same brand of instant coffee. America anxiously followed the romance that blossomed from this slim premise, partly because of Anthony Stewart Head's easy charm. The success of the Taster's Choice campaign brought the actor to the U.S. from England, where his busy career had been split between stage and screen. Genre fans soon came to know him from regular roles on VR.5 and Highlander. This season on the WB's Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Mondays, 9 p.m./ET), Head says, we'll learn a little more about the tweedy, mysterious Rupert Giles. -- John Walsh The word from other Buffy cast members is that you're the coolest guy in the world to work with. Well, they're pretty cool, too. It's a really nice bunch of people. I've been very, very lucky in the 20, 21 years I've been working in that I've very rarely come across egos that have gotten in the way of stuff. I've just been really lucky with the people that I've worked with. This bunch -- they're really, really talented and dedicated, and really nice. You always hear actors saying, "Oh, we're like a family." But it really is true. We all hang out together. Nicky [Brendon]'s got a rocking chair outside his trailer. We kind of gravitate to each other's trailers and hang out. Were you surprised by Sarah Michelle Gellar's breakout popularity? Not at all. I think the show's doing very well for all of us -- touch wood. One of the things that's been flattering in some of the copy we've had -- and we've got some extremely good press -- is the fact that they say it's a real ensemble show, that the supporting characters are written really well. And Sarah -- well, she's great. She really rocks. Did you see the first episode of the new season? Man, she was cool. She did a great job. That episode was particularly good. [Buffy creator] Joss Whedon is at his best when he directs his own words. He knows exactly what he wants. He knows to the finest detail every nuance. It's a joy. But we've had some really good directors this season, and the show is developing a serious edge. Rupert has a love interest this season, too. Yes, that's coming along. We just shot episode eight, and things are heating up. And she's gorgeous. I was watching dailies the other day, and there was this light on her which was just beautiful. Like a David Bailey picture. But the romance doesn't necessarily run smooth. There are things from my past which come back to haunt me. And it affects my relationship with everybody, really. Do you believe in the occult? Yes. I believe there's a dark side. There's a black side. I had been asked if I wanted to do another series, Poltergeist: The Legacy. And I found where it was coming from to be too dark. It was getting very close, when Buffy came along. And I preferred Buffy because it was extremely lighthearted. It just seemed to come from a lighter place. Do you think you'd ever want to direct? Oh, yeah. Why is that? Why does everybody want to direct? I guess it's to be in control. Joss's dream is to be able to direct his own words because he has seen, too many times, people screw around with his stuff. And he has a seriously intuitive vibe of what works and what doesn't work. And he wants to be able to realize that onscreen. As an actor, I guess directing is like painting a bigger picture. I've directed for the stage. But that was a long time ago. I've talked to Joss about directing Buffy, and we've said maybe in the third season. You have a lot of science-fiction and fantasy credits on your risumi. Are you a fan? I seem to gravitate toward it, don't I? I love sci-fi. I used to be a serious fan of [sci-fi author] Ray Bradbury when I was young. It's just wonderful stuff. And yes, I've always been attracted to that. But, as an actor, I'm attracted to good roles. Highlander was a wonderful opportunity. And VR.5 was such a great show. It was just sad that it didn't go to a second season. I think it was maybe a little ahead of its time. What was it about Rupert that made you want this role? Joss has said that he's kind of out to prove that you can have real horror, real suspense, real situations, and yet you can have real humor. You can switch between emotions. Americans, I think, have a unique ability to do that. I used to marvel at the fact that one moment you can have a complete, ribald farce and then the next moment they get you with a tearjerker. They suddenly hit you in the solar plexus. It's something the English have never been very good at doing. Joss has just taken it a step further -- not only can he move from humor to a tearjerker, he'll step up the suspense as well. So what attracted me to Giles was the humor. The first scene I read was when he first meets Buffy, and they end up in the Bronze [the show's hangout joint]. And he's just having a horrible time. And he's basically trying to be very serious and say that she's in danger and she's not paying attention. And it was just really funny stuff. I mean, I had a handle on how I wanted to play it right off. I actually went in to them saying, "Look, this can go somewhere between Hugh Grant and Alan Rickman. Where do you want it?" And they said, "Well, wherever you want. Maybe kind of in the middle." So at his strongest he's Alan Rickman and at his weakest he's Hugh Grant. How far in advance do you know what's up with the show? Has Joss given you a peek at any long character arcs? No. For example, when I said that I knew that in episode eight my dark past was going to be revealed, I asked Joss, "Well, what is it, then?" And he refused to tell me because he knew that I would immediately start to play that. There would be some little undertone in there somewhere. As actors, unfortunately, we can't leave things alone. We find - -- oh, something new to play with! Ooh, a new toy! What do you think is the secret of Buffy's appeal? Well, certainly a large part of its appeal is that a) it is extremely lighthearted, and b) that it's --- not to get too deep about it - -- it's very allegorical. I mean, Joss's vibe has always been that what he writes is an extension of the pain and torture that we've all been through in our teens and in our adolescence. So, do I believe in the occult? Yes, there's definitely a dark side to all of us. - --- Sigh, now only if they would ask about his fans, and then he can mention GASP!

First of all, vampires appear in MANY other religions other than Christian, so I suggest YOU go take a religion course. In example, you can find the same concept of vampires in Sumerian, Greek and Nordic mythologies. And since most of those came BEFORE Christianity, they all must of had there own vampire-slaying methods -- which disappeared when Christianity settled in. So it's only logical that any holy artifact be used against vampires, not only the Christian cross and holy water. (Besides, I'll have you know that both appear as holy symbols in other religions as well). The faith of the user may not change anything if the artifact is holy, but I do think that having the wielder's will and belief as well as the weapon might prove to give better results. That's all for now, join us next time on "Religion and Vampires 101"! ObBuffy: Has anyone ever looked at what exactly she has in that weapon drawer of her? Who knows -- maybe she has some other slaying tools we've never heard about! And BTW, I think she should at least put a lock on that drawer -- either that, or hide her stuff in a totally different place! Hasn't she thought about the possibilities of a)snooping mom and b)well-intentioned mom who finds it by accident?

I like the ending of IG- even though it is a bit on the cheesy spooky side.... but think of how the witch ends..... Sure we love it, but it is BAD- except that it is well done.... You're right though- they take that ending out of the Hellmouth and our usual territories, which feels strange. > My question is this......Is Spike in > for the long haul or will Buffy dispatch him with prejudice? And how > will the riddle of human/undead sex be solved? My guess is that Spike is in for a kind of long haul... but Buffy's adversaries have to change and keep getting better- so I'm assuming he'll die sometime before the end of the season... I'm guessing that the riddle of human/undead sex will not be solved in any tangible way. It has to be a non-non-issue, if you get my drift (if you don't, just ignore it). I can imagine pretty steamy scenes where Angel and Buffy just kind of kiss, but then Angel bites her- that could be more intense then a post coital cigarette and a moralistic message about shame or regret... if they were really daring, they'd explore the freedom of being intimate with someone who doesn't have a disease and can't get you pregnant- (but who may at any time lose it and kill you! :-) miss hayse ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 24 Oct 1997 11:43:51 -0400 (EDT) From: James Bjorkman Subject: Re: BUFFY: Re: Buffy- Reoccuring role for Amy?

Yeah, I noticed that the hair color was different. That doesn't mean it was a different girl. Must I explain why? The second girl also wore her hair in a different style. But looking at the tape again 'cuz of your comments, the second girl's face seems pretty darn oval to me. In fact, that's the initial reason I thought it was the same girl - that face is pretty distinctive, with, yes, prominent eyes, even under a different 'do. The straight hair does kind of make her face look thinner. As to the eyes, well, the second girl is kind of in a shadow and I can't really tell their color. Camera angle and lighting can play tricks with that, too. > she was also built sturdier than the redhead in the hall. Hard to tell the way the second girl was slouching against the wall. I think the angle may have made the second girl seem slighter than she is. She was also partially hidden behind Cordy and the magazine. Looks pretty sturdy to me in any event. Nothing conclusive there. It still looks like Harmony to me, albeit after a trip to the beauty parlor to avoid the distraction of making everyone say, Look! It's Harmony! Why don't they give her some lines! I should never try to answer these kinds of questions.

But I have always wanted to see an ep. titled "when she was truly BAD". A Slayer with a demon would be incredible to watch- and would bring up more depth to her character (i.e. post-badness she would have to come to terms with her deed (ala Xena). In the meantime, Buffy's major internal conflict is the dichotomies of being both Slayer and teenager... Obsure comic buffs may remember way back in the day that there was a comic called Amethyst- princess of the Gemworld - whose role was very similar. She was a teenager on earth, but when she transported to her alter realm- the Gemworld, she became an adult princess. She also had a love interest- and of course the major controversy was their true ages- which was kind of fuzzy.... anyhow, there are interesting parellels- because she was a young kid in the US, and then had major responsibility as a woman in their alternate universe- which is kind of how Buffy has it- except instead of another world, it is when the sun goes down (which is comparable, really) Anyone remember that comic??

I got him to sign my copy of "The Harvest" as well, he wrote "Hi to the Great Sonja Marie From Joss Whedon", we chatted for a few minutes, he told me that he was surprised that anyone knew who he was (AS IF!) and he just came to hear Tony sing (the only reason I recognized him is cause saw a pic of him in Starlog, glad I did!). Then it was time for Tony to sing, so I snagged a place in the front, right underneath him, what better place to video tape him singing?! Mary L. brought her video recorder despite the ACS saying don't but since they didn't take it away from her at the door, we figured we were pretty safe to use it, and too good use at that! Got a sneak preview of it later on with the playback on the recorder and except for a few shakes and me thinking that if I turn it on it's side to get a wider shot (perfect 180 degree turn at that but you need to turn your head to the side to view it properly), it looks good! Mary has just told me that despite some background sounds, it's pretty good. After Tony sang, I went off to find Alyson and Nick, they were dealing blackjack. I introduced myself to Aly, who seemed really thrilled to meet me! I got her to sign my book and the first time she put a smile face and Alyson Hannigan "Willow". Since my friend Elaine was a big fan of hers I got a autograph for her as well, but this was harder then you might expect, Aly's table was right in front of the stage and hearing was extremely hard. So I'm trying to spell Elaine's name for her and Aly couldn't hear me and spells it wrong the first time, then she turns the page over and tries on a new paper getting it right that time. So I have a piece of paper with "Elain" in Aly's handwriting. Nick was too busy dealing BJ for me to talk to him so I watched for a few minutes and then went to stand in line with Cynthia L. to see Tony again and get a picture autographed. The line was going as fast as a car on the LA highway during rush hour! But while I was in it Joss came over to talk to me again, and we talked about the board (and how he needed to get the webmaster to also highlight ASH and Tony and not just Anthony), and that my Buffy Links page along with Domain of the Slain and Tom's Buffy Page are his favourite web sites, except he admitted he never bothers to sign my guestbook. I think I said that even if he did I might not believe it was from him anyway, which launched us in to a discussion of when the board first started, and how it was easier to read everything back then. But since I had to work so much now I usually just look for my name, Anthony and Giles, and he admitted that he looked for his name. Then I reliazed that Cyn has moved up in the line while I hanged back to talk to Joss and he realized he has *lost* his wife, so we parted ways. Next The line from hell, Talking to Aly, meeting Nick and More Tony. TBC in Part 3. If you are missing Part One email me and I'll send it your way!

There are several pictures (all in B&W). I haven't read the article yet, so I can't vouch for its quality. Also, I remember someone posting that Fangoria promised a big Buffy article in the Nov.(or was it Dec.) issue. If it was supposed to be November, they lied. I did, however, find an article on Kevin Williamson and several small B&W pictures of SMG. Check it out if you are so inclined.
