I liked it yesterday a bit more myself.  I was feeling that Jack was being
just a little self-righteous,  but I enjoyed Jenn pointing out that what 
is hers is his and vice versa.  More like a real marriage there.  I know
that I'm the one responsible for paying the bills, but if all we had was
what I bring home (state employee) we'd be in a world of hurt.  If this weren't
a soap, Jack would realize just how much money he was saving by not having to 
pay a housekeeper/nanny and just how much he is contributing to the family.
Oh well, it is a soap not reality.

I'm still reserving opinion on all of this.  I'm not sure I like her at all.
But, I am pleasantly pleased Ariane Chase.  She is doing a good job on Kim
and this from a confirmed Patsy Pease supporter.  Go on flame me sisters, I
can take it.  Stinky doesn't call me Naughty for nothing.  We don't agree on
Diana "Leave without a word" Colville either!

          I beg your humble pardon, El Stinko, but Nectarines are beautiful,
          smooth, juicy fruits and Lemons are tart, eye-opening, zesty fruits,
          while Onions are multi-layered, eye-watering, breath-fouling, wonder-
          ful nonetheless, vegetables.  Fruits may be a little off kilter, but
          we all know about vegetables ;-).
