Hello again.

Wow!  Two posts in one day... this is a first for me.  :)

I just wanted to comment on the Tanner question.  Until yesterday, I really
disliked Tanner.  He never seems interested in much of anything, and he is
NEVER happy about anything.  I don't find him good-looking at all.  But
yesterday I popped an old tape into the VCR, and ran across an episode of Days
from last summer.  It was one of the episodes when Tanner and Molly looked like
they were really going to get somewhere with their relationship, and Tanner
seemed happy to be with her.  He also had short hair, and looked a lot better
than he does now.  Anyway, I'm not sure what happened, maybe the actor who
plays Tanner just got tired of playing the role or something.  It's too bad,
because at this point, Tanner is just another character to fast-forward
through.  Maybe if they resolved this storyline, and gave Tanner something to e
happy about?  (I seem to be suggesting this a lot lately...  wonder why?)

Did you just love that witch today?  Pretending she is preggers and letting
everyone wait on her hand and foot (like once you are 2 days pregnant you
become helpless).  And that Banana, will someone tell her to get back to
earth.  I don't know what planet she has been on, but welcome to the 90's!
I wonder what lies Marcy has cooked up to tell Tess about those BC Pills.
"Oh, they were in my purse, but thats an old prescription".

My question to all those married men (or SO's) out there...don't you KNOW
when your female companion is having her period?  Doesn't she leave
telltale signs around the bathroom?  Isn't your sex life a BIT different
during this event?  Doesn't her laundry have some signals?  Are you all
as blind, deaf, dumb, and dense as DINC?  What is this guys problem.  Didn't
he take Health in junior high?  This fake pregnancy stuff makes me sick.
Next thing you know she'll be 'fainting' and 'getting dizzy'.  How's
she going to get out of seeing Y'dales only OB/Gyn, the delightfully
helpful Dr Samuels?

After watching todays show I thought of a new name for Iva.  I don't know
if her constant sighing makes you as nutty as it does me, but I vote
for calling her Sighva.  aaaaaaaahhhhhhh  hhhhuuuuummmmmm

I can't wait to see Babs on the witness stand.  It may be the first
incidence of spontaneous combustion on daytime TV.

Rodders and Jo were talking about the adoption clause in H2D and Frantic's
adoption of Caroline-dana.  DOn't you think they keep mentioning that not
because Darryl is guilty of something, but because when Babs gets on the
stand and is cross-examined by Dum-dum the 'truth' is going to come out,
Frantic will split (hopefully to another dimension) and take the baby with
her.  I mean, he keeps saying "theres not going to be a divorce in this
family" foreshadowing the serving of the divorce papers any day now.

Now that we have seen that Sleaza's asignation with Thomas Dredge was
during her marriage to JDredge, we know that Tom couldn't be a dredge (
which we already knew, but did the writers?)  I wish they would just 
finish this storyline because I think Sleaza's nerves are doing grave
damage to my babies.  I keep getting pisssed at the TV and yelling, which
makes them jumpy.  And you guys can't even IMAGINE what it feels like
to have two jumpy babies inside!!!  OUch!

Paul (my husband who is more alert in his big toe than Dinc is all over) is
watching the British election results on TV and wants me to announce that
the Tories (Conservatives) came up short (310 seats, with 326 needed) and
it looks like either a coalition government with Labour, Liberal Democrats,
and Ulster Nationalists, OR a hung parliment.  Now, doesn't that interest
all of you?  He is SO EXCITED to finally break the Tory stronghold.  Maybe
if we are lucky, it will happen here too!

Cheers,

Mum-squared

If the choices are Jake and Dennis, it is definately Dennis. Did we all forget
that Jake was/is faithful to his wife/ex-wife Paulina. He made that very clear
the day they had lunch and were trying to figure out a reason to get the 
divorce. It had to be somethig the Cory's would except and Jake refused to the
charge of adultry. He said Paulina did, but he NEVER slept with another woman.
There was a woman he went out with with the intention of sleeping with her but
didn't go through with it.

I agree, Sis Peach.  It was bad...I have been having flashbacks of tummy

Maybe someone has posted something else about that last W&C scene, but
my newsfeed is a couple of days behind.  I, too, had tears in my eyes as
I watched them.  Cassie was so believable.  Her whole life, the only
thing that ever gave her life meaning, was Warren's love, and now it's
gone.  Who else think she might commit suicide as she has nothing else
left?  I think Minx's anguish was also quite believable and I'd like to
see more of it, instead of having her revert to that crazy lady she has
been.  Remember that last scene with Minx holding the crying Cassie
started with a view of the herb garden in the foreground.
Foreshadowing?

There is a distinction here that you either fail to understand, or ignore.
The 'opinions' you 'voiced' were not about the show, or the characters, they
were about other posters.  Therefore, you haven't 'proven' a thing.
 
Did you really expect to insult _people_, not characters, but other posters,
and not have anyone take offense?

Your name might not be '.clueless', but your recent actions ARE.

How can they even *think* about cancelling this show?  Even my
husband has been won over!  I haven't been this enthralled by
a TV show since "Hill Street Blues" -- and that's going back
aways.  I know, I know, I'm just raving to the converted.  But
still -- to think this *excellent* show might be the *last*
new one ever -- it  makes me mad!  (And yes I registered my

Tom Hardy basically just decided that he wanted more
excitement/wanted to be where he could be more help and told
Steve he wanted to start working ER.  This was 2-3 months ago,
I think.  So the real oddity is why he's doing mindscaping

Hey there everyone! Jeep here!

Are you tired of not getting newsfeeds for days at a time??

Do you find you just don't have the time (or just plain dislike ) weeding
through all the OTHER postings, when all you really want is to read about
ATWT??

Well then, I have a proposition for YOU!
 
Someone on the Net, (who is EXTREMELY nice) who isn't even an ATWT watcher,
has set me up on an automatic mailing list, and has  made it possible for me
(a guy with the flakiest of newsfeeds) to get *all* the ATWT posts for the
day, sent to me via e-mail. (She IS a *goddess*:-)

Now, I would like to offer my services to those who also have 
trouble getting all the ATWT postings, by sending you the postings too!

So, if you'd like to get the ATWT postings via e-mail too,
please send me your e-mail address (unless you're on the 
JeepUpdateMailingList and I allready have it), and I will add you 
to this new mailing list!  Sound like a plan????

Don't be kept in the dark!  Keep in touch with ATWT!

     Did any of you fellow DOOL'ers notice how much *brighter* Molly's
hair is?  She would look tons more attractive if she would just stop
shaking her face to get that hair out of her eyes....  And it always
looks soooo stringy!  She badly needs a hair cut!!!  And speaking of
haircuts, Ick needs one too!  Did her hairdresser go a bit too much in
the auburn department today?  Gosh, it was blaring red today...

     Is Scarrie even stupider than previously demonstrated?  She
actually thinks Marlena is soooo paranoid -- paranoid enough to send a
cop out for her just so she could "spy" on her so if she goes over to
Larry's, she can ream her?  *Please*  And right on, Tanner (gosh, he
needs a hair cut too...if he didn't grease it back, then his hair
would be in his face too...  Hey....maybe he and Molly do make a good
pair..at least their hair is BOTH in need of help.)  -- at least he
told Scarrie what she isn't...a woman!  The ONE time that Scarrie made
a halfway decent point...the fact that he "classifies" women into two
groups...by that look, I guess that is supposed to make us viewers
believe he was thinking about Molly.  Now *how* long has their
"romance" build up been taking place?  Come on, TPTB, move it on....

     At least I was happy about Marlena telling the truth that she is
scared about Roman dying..  Bravo!  I was wondering if it was going to
take the writers ANOTHER 6 months for her to even mention that she was
worried about him.  Tomorrow, they get to make love.  Wow. Great. I'm
jumping for joy, can't you tell?  I guess tomorrow will be the "sex"
day on DOOL.  What with SnarledHair and Bosky (well I guess she
doesn't have snarled hair, but it sounded good :) and Drake comes home
to we-know-who.  

     One good point -- even though Dani "admitted" that she's not
John's wife...at least she was *honest* with him...like she told her
mom..."proving my worthiness"...That's the right move...!!!  This
should turn out to be an interesting triangle now.  Considering how
"good and wholesome" John is...

     Well off to listen to some lecture tapes (I think :) and looking

I had my usual Y&R marathon over the weekend watching the previous week's
episodes.  Here's some random thoughts.

Here's what I think is going to happen with Jack/Nikki/Victor/Ashley.  Jack is
totally depressed that Nikki doesn't love him the way she loves Victor.  No
matter how loyal Nikki is being to Jack, Jack knows that their relationship
will never be what he wants it to be.  Because he loves Nikki as much as he
does, I think he will offer her an "out", *if and only if Victor signs over
Jabot to the Abbott family*.  Victor and Ashley's relationship will
deteriorate once the Victoria/Ryan/HIV (the virus that causes AIDS) situation
surfaces.  Victor and Nikki will be furious that Ashley handled the situation
without letting either of them know (particularly Victor, since Nikki was
heavily into her vodka at that time).  Victor and Nikki will reunite.  Jack
will lose the love of his life, but will direct all his energies into Jabot
since it will once again belong to the Abbotts.  Ashley will get into some
sort of relationship with Blade, fighting Jill all the way.

Of course, the breakup of Ashley's marriage will add fuel to Traci's fire.
She'll totally flip out.  I haven't figured out where that relationship will
go yet.  Maybe Brad will confide in Hillary (but of course maybe Danny will).

Also, while I'm meandering, is Victor's "you got that?" phrase on the list of
Y&R overly used sayings???  What about Cricket's "incredible-opportunity"??
Barf.

I haven't been watching long, so I believe you.  I guess I tend to assume
that people who drawl are maybe... how shall we say... less intellectually
inclined than people who don't... (my apologies to any Southerners reading,
I used to live in Tennessee and met some real smart cookies with drawls!)

Since I posted the above comments, my opinion of Fletcher is veering more
to the "goofy" label.  When Jenna Bradshaw was quizzing him about
Springfield's rich'n'famous, and he was acting like the old geezer on
the front porch, well, that was pretty lame.  I felt like a thirteen-
year-old being embarrassed to death by her Dad in front of her friends.
But I still think he's one of the sweetest guys going.

Maybe it's more like Smucker's Grape Jelly on a croissant.  (Whereas
Billy has got to be roast beef & horseradish, right Lance?!)

Hi everyone! Here's the look ahead for this week!

Soap Opera Weekly has a small article on Hilary... did any of you
realize that she played David Kimble's wife in those brief
flashback scenes (remember David burying her?) ?? I didn't! 

THIS WEEK: 
"Lauren comes up with a surefire plan to expose Sheila's dirty
dealing... Dru takes matters into her own fans in hopes of
securing her future with Jabot... Victoria feels betrayed by Nikki...
Michael refuses to give up on his client... Victor and Nikki
grow close again as they deal with their latest predicament...
Kay's recent brush with death make her realize how precious
her loved ones are... Brad becomes disillusioned with his
future... Olivia lets Neil in on ehr secret... Ash frets
over Vic's wellbeing"

Next week:
"Kay gives Jack some friendly words of advice... Ryan send
Victoria on a wild goose chase... Danny and Cricket rekindle
their flame(ugh... I'll miss this one!!)

From my local paper:
"Ryan assures Vic that nmothing happened between him and Victoria
when she stayed the night... Lauren and Paul await the lab's report
on the blood tests while Sheila continues her dirty deeds...
Cricket and MIchael continue working hard in court"

Have a great week everyone!
Toni
