David In Indy:
Yes! Barnabas Collins and Dark Shadows! Who could forget it? Thanks Dottie!

My Mom aways had Dark Shadows tuned in each weekday. She'd always be sitting there folding laundry and watching it when I arrived home from school.

BTW..I always thought Barnabas was sexy...even at 10 years old!!  8)

And Stonewall.....  :'(  :'(

Maybe someday it will make a difference in this country.....
