    Good job interviewing Allison Scagliotti of Warehouse 13…

    Vampire Diaries will probably have better ratings next week because according to today’s Atlanta Journal Constitution they got arrested last month for flashing drivers on I-75. Nice mug shots . (http://www.accessatlanta.com/celebrities-tv/vampire-diaries-136573.html).

    “The actresses — three who live in Atlanta — told deputies they were just filming for the show, which aired Thursday night.”

    Vampire Diaries? Another teen-age girl, but with 2 vamp brothers (wtf?) fighting over her affections? You gotta be frackin’ kidding me, Elmo.
    I guess it’s cool…if you like that Twilight shite.
