Janine,

I also thought they had stopped showing this one altogether a few years
back, mostly because it is fairly scary - the villains are, that is.
But what your friend might be thinking of is the fact that the head 
villain and his followers are kind of Hitler-and-the-Nazis-ish.  I 
don't know how big the controversy was over it.  But the villians were
definitely made to look like militant Germans.

Anybody else ever heard anything like this?

When Nola was talking to her lawyer, she said (about Tad/Ted), 
"He's a natural vintner!".  The lawyer then said, "Tht's very true -- he
has a connoisseur's pallette when it comes to wine.

How many of you added, "And women!"?

Hi Lori! You have a great holiday too! Geez, I really want to predict
but I get tired of being wrong (ha ha)...! Since Opal is supposed to
go into labor on "Christmas Eve" maybe that is when, but they could pro-

happen that for some reason he is not seen by anyone that knows him?

Again, not on DOCL.  If nothing else, I could not believe the director
let her caterwaul away while two other actors were trying to speak.
I guess that proves how much influence she wields.

I do confess, I almost became violent, but then I remembered I had
to promise to be good or someone might revoke my lovely 6-day

Ya know, I was wondering about this picture thing at first, too.
I was thinking about it when Gloria ran into Tad because she's
been at Dixie's as well.

But I got to thinking, if it were me, and I saw a picture of
someone I didn't know, and then weeks or months later ran into 
the person in the picture, I don't think I would remember.
Like, "Hey, you're the guy in the picture at Dixie's!"
(This could just be my terrible memory, though :)

And then I was thinking, does Dix even HAVE a picture of Tad
hanging around (have we seen one)?

My hair is red, not Opal red, or carrot red, but that red brown color.  In
the summer my hair gets very light, almost strwberry blond if I spend a
lot of time in the sun, which I try not to do.  In the winter it gets dark 
again.  My daughter Kendra has blond hair with reddish tints in it.  In the 
summer when she spends a lot of time in the pool her hair gets redder.  My 
other daughter, Alysa also gets copper highlights in her hair in the summer   
and in the winter it is mousy brown.

So maybe Dixie, Brooke and Opal are going throught the changing of the
seasons.

All that turkey left and no one to eat it :-)  Besides, I'm so full

Cheesy potatoes, stuffing, cranberries, yams, pie, etc.  All of which
requires tasting to make sure they're good before serving to guests.

No joke!  Why wouldn't the kid's testimony be admittable?
I say if he isn't astute enough to decide for himself if

Ok, this was tooooo good to pass up so here goes my version of Carly's
Christmas demise:

Carly got run over by a reindeer
walking home from screening Christmas Eve       <===CHOROUS
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
but as for the "bashers" we beleive

She'd been stealing too much air time
and plotting how she could get more
But then she forgot her next line
And she staggered out the stage door into the snow

(Chorous)

When we found her on Christmas morning 
buried under a ton of snow
Her lips were still big but purple
and she had hoof marks where only Bo would know

Now were all so proud of Robert
he's been taking it so well
He heard they recast Kristian
Now he cannot wait to ring HER bell

(Chorous)

It's not Christmas without Carly
All the DOOLer's are dressed in black
And TPTB just can't help but wonder
should we fire RKK and hire Reckell back
(Hire Reckell Back!!!!)

(Chorous)

Now Larrys in the bedroom 
with Nikki at his side
crying out their little eyeballs
with that one fake tear that only Carly cried

I warned all my freinds and who are actors
better not get cast on "Days"
they'll either end up like poor Carly
or get fired like our dear friend SSH

Good theory Ruth!  Maybe he's just hoping that this will be enough strain
to force a break up.  Or that Grant will hire him to protect Vicki and he'll
get to stay close to her.

Wouldn't if be cool if he's really doing all this to spite Grant and once
the break-up is final he tells Vicki to take a hike.  She gets pissed off
and leaves on a vacation for a while and Ryan suddenly realizes what a fool
he's been and takes off after her (hey, I can dream can't I).  In the
meantime everybody forgets about Grant and some really crazed lunatic
shoots and kills him and everybody's happy (especially me).

How's that for a half-baked theory and possible future storyline???

Did I see a continuity error on Thursday's show, or was it just my imagination?

Tad and Edmund left to go get a drink.  Then Tad barged into Nola's 
hospital room because he overheard her yelling at her lawyer.  Then Tad
and Edmund returned from their drink, and Tad had drinks with Nola.

I think I'll rewind the tape and double-check.
