  I think you're right, John.  After her heart-felt denial to Warren
  about not killing Frank it sure looked like we were being set up
  for someone else to be brought it as the killer.  Okay, writers,
  this is not good.  This is pitiful.  You write some great stuff
  about child abuse and handle it a mature, honest manner and you
  show the trauma of admitting it and handling the guilt the abused
  feels then you cop out with this nonsense???  SHAME!

  Andie and Reese are adorable together.  I think, though, that they will
  remain friends.  I appreciated the fact that they were honest with one
  another about getting over previous loves.  And Reese seems to be
  sensitive to Andie's affair with (gag me) Ken.  Will someone please
  shoot this fool and get him off the show?  I don't care who does it
  just eliminate him.  He's not a good bad guy like Frank he's just
  plain boring and obnoxious and not very attractive to look at.  I'm
  sorry but after seeing Reese remove his shirt (my heart was beating
  a tad bit faster at the sight of that lovely physique) I can certainly
  understand why Andie was not overjoyed to see Ken.  Let's see Ken- Reese-
  Reese- Ken  - no contest I'd be leaping into Reese's arms!

  I know I'm in the minority but since Kelly is no longer with Cruz I've
  really been enjoying her.  I'm not sure that I like her with Skylar,
  I think she has more chemistry with the Babester but then I would like
  the Babester with anyone.  I get the feeling the writers don't know
  what to do with Nichols.  Too bad, because he's very talented. There
  seems to be a surplus of men at the moment.  Mind you, I'm certainly
  not complaining.  Maybe if we team up Andie and Skylar?  Or the Babester
  and Andie?  I would still have like to see McBabe and Angela (sorry, John)
  I think there could have been major fireworks between those two...

  Lilly and Ted were rather cute when she was playing *Sigmund*.  We need
  to find someone worthy of Lilly and it's not going to be Mr. Hormone!

  It's so annoying when work interferes with your life, isn't it?  I think
  you need to do another survey, John.  Don't ya just love how people
  volunteer other people for things? (major smileys here)  
  By the way - YO! Writers - where the heck are Mason and Julia?  These
  are two of your power hitters and we've gone a whole week without them-
  this simply won't do!
