-I wrote out a complete script to an episode.

-I have searched the internet for every possible picture I can find from the show (excluding screen captures..)

-I have watched as many as 30 episodes from my tapes in one weekend.

-I slept only about 8 hours between the Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights of the FOL fandemonium marathon. It wasnt on Friday night but I didnt sleep at all hardly because I was too excited.

-I made a website for the show and have spent hours on end working on it and it contains nearly 500 pictures.

-I have spent money for FOL stuff on eBay.

-I used all of the ink in my printer to print out FOL pictures. My parents were mad about that.

-I have a 200 page notebook full of quotes.

-I have 33 tapes containing FOL episodes.

-My wallpaper on my computer is a group picture of the girls.

-I would sit in my room and cry and feel like pouting forever whenever my tape would mess up or my cable would go out causing me to miss FOL.

Okay thats all the stuff I can think of off the top of my head right now.

Well, I think the craziest thing I can think of was driving 6 hours 1 way to meet Lisa Whelchel and then turning around and driving Home 6 hours that night.

I drove 4 1/2 hours Saturday to my sisters. Then Sunday morning I drove 1 1/2 hours to where Lisa was. Then I drove 1 1/2 hours BACk to my sisters and then drove 4 1/2 hours home that night and went to work the next morning

-On that weekend back in November, when FOL was on TVLand, I slept a total of about 3 hours. I also skipped Church for it.

-I spend easily over $75 a year on Ebay

-I stayed up the WHOLE night before meeting Lisa making something for her

-I watch at least 10 episodes a week.

-My computer wallpaper is of Lisa

-I cried and screamed so loud when my VCR didn't record the reunion, that my neighbors heard me. (But thanks to D, I have it now )

-I drove and got lost in some little hick town in Connecticut to meet Lisa

-I HAD a Lisa Whelchel website that took me the whole summer 'cause I did it with HTML but I deleted it. I need to make a new one

-I steal pictures from Ebay and use Paint Shop Pro to take the Copyrights off of them

-I've taped every NMK movie ever shown, but I also own the videos of "The Wrong Woman" and "High School USA"

-I've seen every movie Lisa was ever in. ("Twirl" is the best...not like you all care )

-I have 3 "Extra's" tapes which include all the girls TV appearances such as game shows, ET, Extra!, etc. (Mostly Lisa though)

-I've watched Nancy McKeon's Intimate Portrait 78 times to date.

I've got a little "FOL" shrine in my room.


That's all. NOW I've got to...here is a list.

-Make an FOL book with quotes, bio's, etc.
-Make a new Lisa website
-Find out which eps I have on tape and make a notebook. I had somewhat of a notebook but I lost it

- Ran 20 blocks to get home in time to record programming.

- Almost strangled my brother when he messed up the VCR.

- Stayed up till 4.00AM once watching FOL episodes.

- Paid my cousins 20 bucks to help me record an episode beacuse I didnt have TVland.

- Was willing to trade 8 hours of FOL for the "On Edge" episode, LOL.

-You have 30+ tapes full of episodes.

-During the fandemonium weekend you slept a staggering 6 hours during a 50 hour period. (The six hours was during the Paris movie because I already had it and during infommercials.)

-Your parents threaten that if you 'quote FOL one more time they'll ground you.' ...Guess how many times I've been grounded...

-You visit the FOL board a minimum of 7 times a day even though it's slowly dying.

-You name your animals after FOL cahracters.

-You spend your History class thinking of FOL storylines.

-Your 'Favorite Places' consists of nothing but FOL and TD sites.

-You have every NMK movie recorded that has ever aired on TV, all the FOL interviews, and guest appearances of any FOL girl on other TV shows.

-You threaten to physcially abuse your siblings because they record over one FOL episode.

-You skipped social outtings in order to see the eps and watch the reunion show on its original airing.

Ok Here's mine

- On Mindy's birthday, Took a picture of a bottle of Fake Wine, with a sign above it and my autographed picture of Mindy.
- Burned myself on the finger with the woodburner putting Lisa's name on the box and I was mostly worried about getting the box done and didn't worry about my finger.
- On Lisa's birthday, I did the same thing I did with Mindy's, with the fake wine and stuff.
- Sat in front of my TV for 30 minutes with my finger on the record button to record the local newscast when they interviewed Lisa.
- Read Lisa's whole book the day I got it. Then got bored yesterday and read the whole thing again.
- Currently have 455 FOL pictures (Cast members, group pix, and others.) in my computer.
- Wrote Mindy twice, Nancy McKeon once, and Charlotte Rae twice.
- Sang the FOL theme song in my head on the way to meet Lisa.
- Put one of my school pictures in Lisa's box, then put my e-mail address on the back.

I'm not obssessed with the show, so I haven't done anything drastic. You guys are all freaks!!!!!!!!!! Especially that Jeff kid.
