Mark Linn Baker was on "Full House" this week so I would assume they are
not doing "Perfect Strangers" any more.  Either that or they are on hiatus.
Usually when you see the star of one show on another show, it means that 
this person needs a job because his/her show was cancelled.

     There is an IR controler board for Amigas.  The software can do ALL
 you wish it to do.  I'm not sure if there is one for pcs and 
 compatables but I would almost bet money on it.

     A few years ago Byte magazine had a series of articles on how to 
 build an IR remote for your pc.  A little research at the library should
 yield the issues.

I never got the impression that Alia screwing things up are the things
Sam is there to fix.  It woudl make no sense, because that would mean 
the Evil QL Project, or whatever, predates Sam's PQL becasue otehrwise
The Big Entity Upstairs would have had no reason to leap Sam in the first
place if Alia didn't happen yet.  

Unless of course Linear time has nothing to do with it.  But I
don't think Alia has been screwing up  all the things that Sam has then fixed
over the past five years.  She just enetered the timeline, and all
the things she had done perviously suddenly piled up in 1999 with ZIggy
becasue of linear time and the string theory.

I have a pet theory that what Sam is doing is making his universe, the one
he grew up in before he started leaping, into ours.  Just from the "You
probably don't remember this, but in our world, Jackie died too."
I started thinking this.  I knwo it's silly, but it makes sense to me thus far.


I think that Alia may well be Sam's intellectual equal.  She's just so swiss
cheesed and I get the feeling Zoey ad Lothos don't want her ever to remember
becasue they need that hold on her, that "We are the only ones you have, 
we will tell you what to do, you have no choice."  I thing they are giving 
just one version of the truth,a dn she has no choice but to believe them,
becasue all she really wants to do is go home.

She may have been just liek Sam when she started.  She could have been there
to put things right.  Maybe Zoey and Lothos cut her off from her Project,
makign her think they are her human observer and computer, ad her real project
has been shut ddown becasue they couldn't get through to her becasue of
Lothos's interferience.  Maybe Alia was TBEU's first attempt at trying to put
things right, and She (and I do mean She) got thwarted by The Big Entity
Downstairs, and so She leaped Sam.


just more QL pointless ramblings......

Well, I had a crush on him when he was on The Rifleman.
LOVED the music to the show.  I still get goosebumps when
I hear it.  Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm.  Hmmmmhmmhmmhmmhmm..
The hat, the rifle, the music, the stories.  What a good show.
One of my favorite stories involved a lady and her daughter
who somehow got stranded at the McCain ranch and had to spend
the night.  Mark had to share his bedroom with a girl!
I think that Lucas, being a gentleman, gave the lady his room.
Or maybe they sat up talking all night.  I don't remember.

Ok, just in case...


I was able to pick out the evil leaper upon seeing her, as I'm sure
others were.  Though I was a bit thrown off by Zoie's (sp?) clothing,
having second thoughts as to whether or not she was actually a
neighbor or something.  The dialogue was less than subtle though and
hinted to their relationship.  

I thought that was pretty cool when they touched and could then see
each other.  The end was a bit hokey though - I'll have to side with a
friend of mine and agree there.  This good begets evil thing...  I
don't know...  

What's this premise?  They're supposed to be from hell and, what, has
Lucifer (Lothus, I think, nice similarity there :) stolen the

I'll have to disagree with you somewhat. In the "Good Old Days", the Grinch

Yes, it is Lorenzo Lamas on the new show, Renegade. I've watched it a
few times, but am disappointed in Stephen Cannell, or maybe in the
directors. The action is very flawed and not realistic. The dialogue
is rather empty. The only good thing I've seen _is_ Lorenzo, and
maybe his Native America buddy, played by someone named Branscombe
something-or-other (I think I've seen him in something else as a
Hawaiian native, but can't place it).

I've historically really enjoyed SC's productions, but this one's
really disappointing.

The news program I like the most is the MacNeil/Lehrer Newshour. Thast 
program seems to have the same style that you describe for BBC's Newsnight.
Also Robert MacNeil and Jim Lehrer are my favorite journalists, they
really go out of their way to be impartial and balanced in their interiews.
They have their program in PBS.

This is the one thing that bothers me about the show: Sam never fails.
At first I didn't mind, because it was thought that he had to succeed
to leap. But in "A Leap for Lisa", Sam says that success or failure has
nothing to do with leaping. Now, that we have an evil leaper going around
messing things up, Sam should lose once in a while. Not very often, but
just enough to show that he's human. Just my $0.02.

This is easy. Nothing goes wrong with his shower at all. It's simply an

I remember an episode of Good Times that drew a lot of objections.  I think
JJ finds out one of his old girlfriends has herpes, or some type of VD as it
was called then, and goes to a clinic to get tested.  The network aired it
with many "Parental Discression is Advised" warnings.  For awhile it
wasn't shown in syndication, but society's standards change and it
is put on occasionally.
