Whoa...there be a definite diff twixt psychiatrists and psychologists.

Frannie has ALWAYS been a naive character.

I would like to see Ashley get half of Newman enterprises, or whatever
she can get, and then run it. I'd like to see her be a high powered
business executive.  If Jack urges her on, that would indeed fit his
plans.  I wonder if he's thinking along those lines. He's been quite
interested in Ashley's marriage situation.  It looks like he's concerned
because of what it means to his own marriage, but your posting made me
think it could indeed be more.

I can't believe it, I actually found myself in the store last night.  We went
to the local supermarket and lo and behold in the international area of the
fruit section there I was, sitting just a beautiful as ever.  I even pulled
the label off of myself so I could post what it said today.  Are ya ready?
It says: Quince, Great for baking...World variety produce, Inc.  On top of
everything else, I found out that I am one of the most expensive and rare
fruits sold in Arizona.  People pay 1.99 for 1/2 pound of me.  Now, that's
what I call exciting.  I was so happy when I returned home from the store
last night!  It's really great to see your names in lights (so to speak)

Yes, I saw this article. I mentioned it to Ann Helmers in email and also
a lurker who wrote me (hi lurker!), I was quite surprised also to see
the photo of Will and Trevor in this section, (all the photos were 
blurry, and that was done intentionally for effect IMO). I think the
article has critical value. I think there is too much violence shown
on tv, (less on the regular networks and more in the movies tho). I 
don't watch the cartoons so I can't voice my opinion on that. I guess
one of the major points (I did not read the whole thing carefully) that
in my opinion one of the expert panelists made (I even met her once!),
I believe she used Boys n the hood which I did not see, I have thought
about it but was waiting for the right mood, is that if violence is
used to show the sadness and the repercussions that is causes and the
ultimate damage that it can cause, then it is or may be useful, but
if people see things, they go out and copy what they saw, that is 
bad.  Of course we could discuss this in great controversy but that's
not why we're here! :-) I found it useful information tho and sadly
interesting.

Yes Yes Yes!!!!!!!  I couldn't agree more!  I've been saying this
for weeks but I didn't think anyone agreed with me!
 
Scott is being totally ridiculous.  How could giving Scottie a mother
cause instability?  Things would be just as stable if Scottie lived
with Lauren.  I'm not saying that Scottie SHOULD live with his mother
instead of his father, I'm only saying that it would not be less
stable for him.  He's only a year old!  He's not going to remember
that he used to live someplace, and now live someplace else!  And
I'm sure he barely, if at all, remembers Sheila.  Children CAN and DO
adjust.  The problem here is Scott, not little Scottie.  Scott is
being so incredibly selfish.  Especially since Lauren wanted JOINT
custody initially.   She didn't want to take Little Scottie away
from Scott, she only wanted to be a pert of her son's life and
have some say in how he's raised.  Scott absolutely refused to
consider anything but marriage.  Talk about a jerk.  So now, I'm
hoping Lauren gets FULL custody, because I think Scott will not
be a good role model for Little Scottie.

Sounds good to me.  Lauren has her own business, so she can work whenever she
wants to.  She has lots of space in her office for her son.  

I was wondering who takes care of Eric, Jr. when he is not with Brooke, Eric
or Sheila.  Since Judy left, who was watching him while everyone was at the
hospital?  If Eric needs Sheila to take care of Eric, Jr. seems to me that she
would have been with him instead of at the hospital!  But this is a Bell soap
so I shouldn't expect logical storylines.

I agree that there is something slightly incestuous in their interactions.
However, that aside,  Viv is "Aunt" Viv to Nicky, her adopted son;  I suspect
we will find that she is also the mother of her other "nephew," Larry.
She swiped Nicky to keep Carly from having a hold on Larry, and to keep
custody of her own grandson.

Subject: DOOL:TAN: Off the Ick Contest CANCELLED.

	At first, when I heard of the imminent departure of one Isabella
	Toscano Black, I thought it'd be neat to stage a contest to
	decide on the "best" way to off her.

	However, due to a number of factors, I am unfortunately forced
	to put the contest on indefinite hold. Some of the reasons, in
	no particular order:
		(a) Slow response.
		(b) My dept. here is enacting its own real-life soap
		    opera, one that is starting to get in *my* way.
		(c) I genuinely don't care anymore one way or the
		    other what happens to IT, just as long as she
		    leaves. And quickly.
		(d) Scenarios for the demise of Izshegonnadragthesoap-
		    throughalongandtortuousdeathscene have already
		    been posted to the net, so such a contest would
		    be rather redundant.

	If anyone else wants it, they can have it. Sorry for the abrupt
	end, folks. :-(

TTFN,
- EV
