The girl that played Blake before Stringfield was older looking, we
referred to her as pastyface.   She had no talent either and I can't
imagine her pulling off some of the things Sherry has pulled off,
she didn't have the looks either.  IMHO they did very well when they
recast for Blake.

Subject: OLTL: Dr. Larry needs a rest + thoughts
Date: 30 Jul 92 16:44:43 GMT

Excuse me, Dr. Larry, a blood alcohol level of 30% (did I hear that right?).
Straight 70 proof Vodka is only 35%, Billy doesn't have blood; he's got
Bloody Mary in his veins. Considering that a blood level of 0.1% is considered
drunk in many states, I think the good doctor needs a refresher course.
Either that or Billy isn't just in grave condition, he's been embalmed already.

On another level, clearly this story line is designed to generate sympathy for
Andrew and to expose all the evil bigots in Llanview, but there is, of course,
another side to the controversy that they should have brought out better
without making all the non-Vicky's look like raving lunatics. It seems to
me that if your religion does, in fact, and this is the real issue, teach that
something is a sin, whether it be stealing, adultery, pornography, etc., then
you have every right to ask your priest, minister, rabbi, etc. whether he/she
practices such an act publicly or privately. This stand of "you have no
right to ask me that," may be fine in the secular job market, but it
doesn't sound right coming from a would be teacher of morality.
Finally, the use of the term "sexual preference" is really annoying.
What does it mean? Preference implies a personal favorite among possibilities.
Do either gays or straights consider their respective orientations a
preference, or simply the way they are? Pedophilics might describe their
condition as a preference as well. Oh, well, it is "just a soap."
Other opinions?

Yeah yeah.  My point was that a lot of people tend to be unreasonable about

In other words, Shannon could have her own set of circumstances that may seem
acceptable to you, but would still incite a bunch of others.  You know, it

No, you're not alone Dave! I've already posted something to this effect,
but here goes again! Much as you have said, I think Angel's new style
suits her very well. Her bangs are styled in a way that doesn't make her
forehead look weird anymore. The color gives her some depth, I think.
It look *so* much richer than when it was blond!

Hi, y'all.  Just a quick note from this semi-lurker to tell
you that, after having been in Norfolk, VA, for only 4 months,
I am moving again.  Got a job offer from a private company
in Birmingham, so it's back to Alabama.  I've always worked
in university libraries, so this will be a big change for me.

I know that I'll have access to the Internet at my new job,
but don't know yet about access to the newsgroups.  Does anyone
know about getting access in the B'ham area?

Even if I can't get a direct newsfeed, I will continue to rely
on the kindness of Margaret Gibbs for her daily mailings, so I
won't lose y'all completely.  Bless you, Margaret!

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone in the AMC Yearbook!

Where'd you get that idea?  I don't think they've had any scenes
together...why do you think Austin and Lisanne are old friends?  
Help, Peachy Pie...I don't understand!  As for the fake cop stuff, 
they're apparently setting things up so Austin's a bit of a thug or
something -- in one of the episodes last week when he was hanging
around the Bradys a lot he called his bookie (sp? -- I guess you can
tell I don't have one, eh?) to place a bet and said that the new
Brady pub would be a great place to do some business.

You only "half" expected it to happen?  Gee...as a long-time viewer
of DOOL, I totally expected it to happen -- I've come to expect 
certain patterns of behavior don't you know?  I almost couldn't 
believe it when I watched the show last night and Cap'n Earl Gray
didn't jump up and run to Kim's side as soon as Roger's car sped 
away!  I was quite pleasantly (if nearly fatally) surprised.  :-)

In the current week's TV Guide, it says that the Homefront "officials"
decided not to air the episode because they thought it was too sad, and
having it as only the second show, it might scare off too many
potential viewers.  

Anyone who knows how the first episode ended can probably guess what
this episode will center around......

Oops!  If a blank post with my name on it appears, ignore it!
My keyboard locked up on me and I think I managed to cancel
the sucker, but who knows!  Well, on to business!

(Oh, and for the newbies out there, NCMC stands for
Nick Corelli Memorial Contingent, of which I am President and
Treasurer.  Any donations welcome :-)  )

Well, like I said, on to business.  A while back the Big Banana
posted an address for George Jenesky's fan club.  I contacted
them and finally heard back from them this week.  They are between
newsletters, so they sent me some old ones to give me an idea as to
what they're all about.  This is a non-profit group, no dues or
membership fees or anything, although contributions are welcome, so
I can actually afford it!  Wow!  Anyhow, the info in the letters
is outdated, but there were someinteresting tidbits I thought I'd
pass along.

These guys are writeaholics.  They've apparently been bugging all
sorts of casting directors to try and push George (apparently they
share my feeling that it's easier to videotape rather than rush
to theatres around the country to watch someone, even though the
guy does prefer to do live theatre)  But anyhow, they've gotten 
positive responses from Northern Exposure and the new Star Trek
series in Primetime, and apparently Bill Bell sent a personal reply
to one person on the subject.  One of the members is an intern at 
SOW, and her first assignment was interviewing George (sounds like
a good way to make a living).  Let's see, apparently a theatrical
tour of the east coast is in the works (how come everyone does either
the east or west coast?  What about a tour of boring kinda southerny 
states?) for the fall.  They had some interview stuff, reviews of
"Wait Until Dark", and the results of their own poll.  They also
had a listing of every song ever used in any of Nick's storylines
and if/where it's available, so if anyone has a question on any song, 
let me know!  The classifieds were interesting, lots of selling and
trading of tapes and mags and memorabilia for those who are interested.
Like I said, most of the info was out of date, and there obviously
isn't a major budget here, but it seems like a real nice group of
people, for those who are interested.  I just figured I'd pass along my
impressions and the address again, in case anyone else cares!
The address is: George's Gang
                PO Box 250
                Palm PA 18070
          All you need to send is long SASE.  Like I said, they seem
to be real nice (not quite as weird as us!) and also could be a source
for tapes for people.

Signing off now,

Someone else on the net (sorry, I can't remember who. You know, it's the

about to have a stack driven through her heart.  Unfortunately, I didn't
watch after Kim get hit, my life interferred at that point.  I did have one

Tim, you're exactly right!  I was rather glad that Captain Donovan fell

to her miracously.  Although, I must admit....I half expected it to

A few comments:	
	

Well another day highlighted by Roger Lombard.  Roger has found his way
into two major stories now, the hit and run and Lawrence's plan to get
John.  

It seemed like most of the episode was fastforward city.  Those
Izzy/John scenes were unbelievably long.  I'm not sure I can stand
another three months of this.  I think Issabella is a great example of
what's wrong with days.  Not only is she horrible but she drags down
anyone in the scene with her.  Drake just seems so flat in scenes with
her.  Like he is really forcing his acting.  Carly does the same thing
to Bo alot of the time.  Those were some of the most boring scenes I've
ever seen John in.  I can't understand how anyone could like Issabella
over Danielle.  John and Danielle's plane ride to Switzerland alone
blows this entire Honeymoon story out of the water.  

The more I see of Austin the more I think he looks like a bulked up Rob
Lowe.  Especially when he smiles.

Nice to see the writers didn't forget about Larry's feelings for Kim.

That's all for now.
