(From Alice) Ardeospina sent this to me over a week ago (it might even be two) and since then there’s another item to add to this list. I think we all know what it is. Anyway, all this is her except for my added “Honorable Mention” at the end that I’m sure Ardeospina would have…
This happens a few times in the “Supernatural” fandom. Wooed by the sheer awesomeness of the Winchester’s slick 1967 black Chevy Impala, a select few start thinking, “What if I owned one?” Considering you can’t exactly go down to the local dealership and get a 1967 Impala anymore, finding one becomes a journey that involves…
On the 24th April 1967, a General Motors vehicle rolled of the line at the plant in Janesville, Wisconsin. On the 24th April 1974, somewhere in Toledo, Ohio, a baby boy was born. Those sound like normal events. Nobody would have thought that these two moments would change the lives of millions of people and…
In any filmed story, there are actors that convey that story to the audience. Those actors need not always be human beings. In the season 11 episode “Baby,” the primary actor is none other than the ’67 Chevrolet Impala herself. It is through her lens that we see the story—a day in the life of…
So, Christmas time is here and I know what you’re thinking: What in the world can I get the ghost of my great grandmother, vampire neighbor, or the DarknessTM to unwrap on that magical morning? Maybe you celebrate Hanukkah, or Kwanzaa or have another holiday tradition that involves exchanging gifts with the little monsters…
I think that Sean McKenna, the moderator for our TV Fanatic Supernatural Roundtables, hit it on the head when he asked, “Did Supernatural just have one of its best episodes ever?” Sean and Christine Laskodi of TV Fanatic and myself and Nightsky all had wonderful things to say about this wildly creative idea that once…
OH! OH!! OH!!!!!
Karen, YOU ARE WONDERFUL. This is beautiful. This is fantastic. You are so talented. Glad you found this site, and Supernatural. Thanks!
Karen,this is really beautiful…
If that gorgeous, sexy car could only talk, what stories would we hear…I loved that line ‘…and her beauty is mesmerizing under the moonlight’… oh, yes.
This car has been wounded and it carries scars, even after being broken down, she’s still standing… much like our favourite Winchesters.
Love, Jas
Karen,
Anyone who can rhyme “Transportation” with “Salvation”
Has my total respect and admiration.
Wow! Karen this is really good! Thank’ for this little piece, you just brighten my day!
Alice I followed the link and saw the video and earing Jensen and Jared talking about the Impala a realized that in real life Jared is the one who knows all about cars! Funny!
Great poem Karen. You said it all and how we all feel about this beloved car. thanks.
If Shakespeare were alive, even he’d bust out a sonnet on the car.
Oh, Karen, again you’re awesome!
This is freaking great, and very true.
Esp. the last line *wibble*
“this matter was resolved and she has put it past her”… xD Love your poems, Karen–thanks!
Hi
Thank you ALL so much for your support of the poem.
With the Impala’s strong fan base I knew I was walking on sacred ground.
So I have to admit I was alittle worried about this one.
I really wanted to make sure I did right by her. Looks like I did ok from the responses.
So thanks again to everyone.
Alice, a special thanks to you for letting me post these here.
