Who spelled Navajo wrong?  Who jumped on that person with the
correct spelling and now that person isn't planning to update
for six more months?

We all knew what you meant.  Relax ... spell anyway you want.

From what I remember about Lane, he didn't like Nancy Grahn, and for a while
I also hated Julia because of this.  I was biased by his opinion of Nancy.
After Davies was gone, I came to appreciate Nancy for the fine actress she is
and realized that Lane was the problem, not the character of Julia.  I suppose
the writing helped some.

I loved that episode! Greg was in "The Capwell Zone". It might not have been

Date: 22 Jan 93 04:10:07 GMT
Organization: Harvard University Science Center

Dear Y&R Faithful:

I don't know about all of you, but I am sick and tired of how
Victor's power has been portrayed in the past few weeks with
respect to the law.  As a law student, I cringe at what the
writers try to get away with when they have the all-powerful
Victor Newman waltzing around giving orders about what he wants.

I almost hit the ceiling when he proclaimed "I want this petition
to dissolve the marriage done today, without notice that MacNeil
boy," and then Mitchell Sherman, although with some protest, went
around acting on it as if it were actually possible!  Give me a
break!  I don't care how powerful Victor Newman is; he can't
change the notice requirements of the law!

Unless he can go in for a TRO, demonstrating immediate and
irreparable harm unless the condition that he is complaining of
is stopped by the court, the defendants in the action (Victoria
AND Ryan; btw, service on Nikki instead of Victoria might have
been improper as well because Vicki, as a married woman until
proven otherwise, is probably independent in the eyes of the law)
must be given notice of his complaint, and are probably granted
about three weeks to prepare a defense and respond to the
complaint.

Another point that had me screaming is when Victor gave Mitchell
an increase in his retainer for finding the marriage
nullification statute in the state books.  Any law clerk or
paralegal could have found that statute in twenty minutes using
LEXIS or WESTLAW (computer legal databases) or in an hour poring
through the books!  I don't care IF Mitchell is, in Victor's
words, "a corporate lawyer; he therefore does not know anything
about this area."  When it took him several days to find the
statute, the character lost all credibility as an attorney, and
Victor's praise showed extreme naivete that is inconsistent with
his all-powerful, omniscient image.

Horrible writing, folks.  They should do some research into the
legal world before they continue to send the characters stumbling
through it.

Some guy who, I believe was hauled in for attempting to launder money or

so as not to get caught by the cops.

what were the circumstances of her leaving Springfield, and how old

I saw this movie several months ago.  I ran across it on a cable
channel as I was flipping through the channels.  Your right the
movie wasn't great and I only stopped to watch it because of MEK.
By the way this was before we knew that he was coming back to AMC
and I remember thinking at the time how great it would be if Tad
 would return to PV.

I think this movie was filmed after he left AMC.

My wife and I have been taping AMC for almost 6 years now, I watched it long
before that. My 3 year old son can now name EVERY character in the opening
picture segment! BTW, his favorites are Tad,Dixie, and Edmund.

My wife was getting kinda bored with the show until Tad came back, now she's
all set until MEK decides to take another try at Hollywood.

My favorite time period of AMC was back in the Jenny-Greg & Tad-Marion-liza
days, the shows were great every day!! 

I do hope they can work Tad in with Haley, Edmund and Charlie, what a great
foursome...

Haley has come a LONG way in her acting ability and I expect that she may
get a feature film chance relatively soon.

If Susan Willis (Hellcat) doesn't get an emmy nomination, we should start
a write-in campaign.

I do think this will be THE year Susan Lucci gets her Emmy, maybe she doesn't
deserve it this year, but she had to in at least 1 of the 13 previous years.

You folks aren't even trying! (although I liked the Ed/Frank suggestion)
If you want a GL affair that was never meant to be, try Ed and Kat! There
is of course no reason for them to hook up, but hey, IOAS!

Other than Holly, I would vote Eve as being the 2nd most predictable
liason for the good Doctor. The match I'd like to see with Ed would be
none other than Bridgette. Of course, this might mean Ed raising yet
another Thorpe, but I have a feeling Bridgette may try to replace Mo
in mo' ways than one. But hasn't the poor girl been through enough?

Wha'? Strike that and reverse it. As I recall it was Rick who was hung

soaps.

Hi everyone!
Not alot happened on ATWT yesterday, but here's a *brief* synopsis.

Ivagottasixmontholdlookingson and MoJo finally got out of the hospital.

GetEven tells RoseHand he thinks he's falling in love with her.

Dawn is questioned further during the trial, and Tom is also called 
to testify.

Pal thinks about his broken engagement.

Jool tells Holdie she hopes K-lip doesnt' find out about their going out 
to dinner.

RoseHand tells Court she doesn't know who to choose.  Duh..Hutch or GetEven.

Lilabird tells Simondian not to blame herself for what happened between
she, Pal and the indian situation.

GetEven tells EdWeenie she wants to have him to dinner with she and 
Alexander.  GetEven wants to include RoseHand and EdWeenie thinks that's 
a bad idea.  GetEven then tells her about his feelings of love for RoseHand. 
She freaks, and decides to tell him the truth.  He is Alexander Cabots son.

Juicy invites JohnnYD to dinner, but he declines the invitation. 

Court is back in station, and ElroyNevins gets put on the stand.

...Cut!

Susan-

What do you mean by cable channels.  Most cable channels are just
regular stations that are carried by cable and their funding is
through commercials none of the money cable makes for your
subscription goes to them.  These stations are available for free.
Now if you mean HBO or Showtime those are channels that are called
premium and you can't get these without subscribing to cable.
