What was that Belgian Art House movie of the eighties which started out
with the guy being taken the piss of as a teenager as a child because of
his acne and ends with him being arrested for stealing a corpse to have

CNN reports that BtVS's SMG will wed Freddie Prinz.

Of course he'll probably be attacked by vampires before that can
actually happen.

Nah. He's a nobody who's been dating SMG for a while. Apparently they're
going to be in the live action Scooby Doo movie together. He's playing
Freddie and she's playing Daphne.

Alexis Denisof (who plays Wesley) is going out with Alyson Hannigan
(Willow).

For some reason, this is made even worse by the automatic word
