I agree, whatever is going on with Junior is getting OLD very fast.  Why 
does she have to pick him up all of the time, carry him, while he says 
nothing . . . not the typical kid IMO.

Speaking as someone with a *lot* of hair coloring experience, (I've
been white-blond, dark blond, every shade of red there is, magenta,
fushia, blue and black) I *REALLY* think that Anjelique's current
reddish hair was an accident. For one thing, it's different
at the roots than it is in the middle, and different still at the
ends. It looks to me like it was being prepped for further color,
but for some reason (damage? allergy?) they left it where it is.
It'll be interesting to see if it changes again within the next
few weeks. It's really ugly though... a dark burgundy red would 
look pretty on her, but this light blotchy tabby cat color
does *nothing*.

Howdy Neighbor and new poster! I don't think we need to have a lurker

The reason I chose your post is cause I wanted to mention something
about Edmund-O! Wasn't he just schizo/superb-O on Tues. show? well,
*I* liked him :-) He was freaking everybody out, esp. poor Angel,
it was kind of funny. I had a thought tho when he was shown from
the back in the garden, he looked like - OOOO MEK! His hair and
frame looked just like my Tadster. REally made me get the need to
want him back! Margaret and I are sending another letter to AMC with
the Yearbook and I wrote - note the pic. of Michael Knight. Bring
TAD back to Pine Valley :-)

Yes, there were two. We've talked about it. Some have had mad crushes
on the first one, some even with the second I believe. The second one
had an English accent. The first one's been in tons of movies etc.
I even know his name but it is evading me at the moment. Nicholas
Surovy! Yea, that's it!

Well glad to have so much discussion with new posters and been here

Wasn't Blake involved with Philip when she first appeared?  I never
did know how that ended and how she got interested in A-M.  I do
remember the fake pregnancy and A-M being kidnapped, but I don't
remember how she and A-M got together.  Also, what broke up A-M and

What about those two characters on IN LIVING COLOUR?  I can't remember their
names since I don't watch that often (I always forget what night it's on), but
I recall my mother saying that there are these two guys, and they do movie
reviews or something, and they like to say "Hated it!".  Hope that
helps...sorry I can't remember the details.  Maybe someone else can fill in the
blanks.

Also, Jack Tripper on THREE'S COMPANY, although he was not really gay, did
pretend to be gay so that his landlord (Mr. Roper, Mr. Furley) wouldn't raise a
fuss about him living there with Janet/Chrissie et al.

Lastly, Roseanne's boss at the resturant, played by Martin Mull, on ROSEANNE,
is homosexual, and his boyfriend was on there once too.  If I'm not mistaken,
his homosexuality played a part with his job too (got him in trouble somehow,
can't remember all the details).

Hope this helps.  If I remember more (I probably will, I am a wealth of totally
useless trivia information) I will definately pass it on.

somebody out there may have already mentioned this but here goes...

about a month ago, my girlfriend and i were watching something on tv. 
as usual, i started flipping channels and ran across Matlock.  the story
was something about a caddie blackmailing some rich cc members and he
ends up dead...

well, matlock is making rounds to the suspects (he was on the golf
course, no pun intended)  and there he is, rob trying to get out of a
sand trap.  he was just as blundering while talking to matlock as he was
on days.  i miss the way he would give the other characters those looks
of disbelief, disgust, etc.

then, up on the putting green...    the dirty professor.

we almost died.  this was amazing.

p.s.  the dirty professor was the killer.

Organization: Wayne State University, Detroit, MI

Date: Tue, 21 Jul 1992 16:09:55 GMT

I simply hate it when soaps get so predictable. Ofcourse, some would ask
me, why do you keep watching soaps then, because they usually are
predictable. Okay, so maybe what I hate is too predictable. Everyone
must have at least suspected that Holden would lose his memory somehow.
Everytime, the soaps have difficulties dealing with a situation, someone
either runs away or looses their memory, as a poster mentioned not long
ago. I couldn't agree more.

In Holden's case they have tried a little twist. He is hit in the head,
ofcourse (that's necessary for amnesia), but not in an accident as we
would have expected. He is robbed. In addition he actually goes through
surgery. Usually on soaps,when people lose their memory, they don't go
to a hospital. They simply get hit in the head and start wandering
around, until someone recognises them. Since ATWT has gone through all
the trouble of putting Holden in a hospital and getting him operated upon,
I guess we can assume that he will lose a chunk of his memory. He might
not even know he's a Snider. I would simply hate to go through Holden's
wandering as a lost soul, wondering who he is, and where he's from, and
ofcourse, why someone named Lily keeps coming to his mind, (because,
ofcourse, he couldn't lose all his memory. The part concerning the girl
would surely still be there).
I get tired of such story lines. Frankly, I would like
to once in a while, see people confront their problems head on.

This happened to me to Cori (I posted I've had "experience"). I didn't
follow through with this because it was too hard (well, I s'pose I
could have); what I did is this: First I got one of those whistles
that screeches beyond your wildest dreams and hurts your ears! :-)
It worked for a while. Then I got my SO to leave a msg. on the answering
machine in his voice. That worked pretty well too. The guy called me
tho the other nite but I hung up on him. What a creep! What goes around,
comes around. Your sister's "friend" will get his! :-) Maybe she could
try either of my suggestions. A screeching whistle or a man's voice
on answering machine.

What I don't understand is this about Galen:  All they have to do
is get a restraining order against Carter! She certainly has grounds!!!!
I know, as I mentioned, these things don't always work :-( but its

Wonder-Boy is still in the bar where we left him on Friday, sullenly
tossing peanuts into an empty beer glass.  Roger joins him and tries
to be sympathetic - they have both been stabbed in the back by
Alexandra.  W-B is none too cordial, but lets Rog buy him a drink
or three.  They talk about stuff that was before my time.  (Sorry.)

Eleni's got Frank driving her around town checking bars for W-B but
they haven't found him and it's late.  For some reason they are in
the WSPR carpark, where Holly is unable to start her car (again).
Frank tries to help, Eleni goes to get her purse, and Holly & Frank
talk about W-B.  Eleni comes back and doesn't like the way they
were speaking about her wonderful, honest husband behind his back.
Holly apologizes but clearly feels sorry for Eleni being married
to such a schmuck.  Her car is totally dead - she declines Frank's
offer of a ride and calls the auto service.

Blake & Ross are in the back of the limo making some serious
whoopie.  Between bouts of sex, they talk about how Blake has
never met the right man and Ross assures her that she will some
day.  He seems to be falling for her, but says this is the last
time they can do this (at least for a while) because it's too
scandalous.  A car pulls up and Blake figures it's Holly -
Ross panics and Blake looks worried - but it's just teenagers.
Ross insists they go home now, and Blake seems a little sad.

David has moved into Gilly & Hamp's place.  Hamp comes home and
is not thrilled to learn David is taking up residence.  He's
very concerned about David's attitude & behaviour.  Gilly tries
to reassure him.

Frank takes Eleni home and waits with her.  W-B shows up at last,
in pretty bad shape, and is less than pleased to find Frank being
there for Eleni once again.  He acts like a true dink, and so Frank
says goodnight.  W-B continues to act like a dink, showing his
true colours here & there about how Spaulding Enterprises is the
most important thing in his life.  He continues to pour himself
drinks and yells at Eleni that she doesn't understand anything.
Eventually he goes to bed.  Eleni is beside herself, and angry
with Alex for hurting her wonderful honest husband.

Roger shows up at the WSPR car park where Holly is still waiting...
it takes him several tries to convince Holly to let him just drive
her home.  Holly is upset about missing Blake's little picnic.
They all arrive home at about the same time, and Rog & Hol keep
asking Blake about this "new boyfriend".  Of course, she is
extremely evasive.

David & Frank meet for a drink and talk about David's freedom.
But the conversation quickly turns to Eleni - David says it's
obvious how much Frank still loves her and if she was truly
taken from him in a dishonest way, he should fight to get her
back.  Frank says he will never do anything to break up a marriage.
