I have a feeling that Angelique (the actress) is taking her 
Holiday vacation, (she has been pretty much on continuously since she
arrived at Weirdwind) I do not believe she is permanently leaving. 
Maybe she will come back

Ok, it's time to start a pool on how GetEvenCabotCove will learn
the truth about his parentage.

Will he:

1) Be in a car accident and need an emergency transfusion that
   only CabotCoveSr can provide?

2) Be a perfect genetic match for CabotCoveSr, who will need a 
   bone marrow transplant for some rare, nastiness-induced disease?

3) Get Rosehand pregnant and produce a child with hemophilia,
   which will immediately indicate inbreeding to the on-the-ball
   Yukdale docs (a la the Russian royal family)?

4) See one of CabotCoveSr's grandsons (does he have any?), who
   is the spitting image of GetEvenCabotCove at that age?

6) Overhear, through one of Yuckdale's paper-thin walls,
   PruneFace (my new nick for Edweenie) and CabotCoveSr 
   lamenting over the fact that they never had a child, 
   then find PruneFace's diary (in which she stupidly 
   chronicled her NYC tryst with CabotCoveSr) and realize
   that the date coincides with his conception?

7) Find old medical records that indicate that his father
   became sterile due to an attack of German Measles right
   after Conner's birth?

8) Have 1-7 all occur, and then begin to wonder about it, 
   but finally conclude that it's just been one crazy
   coincidence after another.

Any other guesses?

Also - does PruneFace realize he's a CabotCove?  I vote no.

Right, there is absolutely nothing in common between this place and
BOOMERS the place I went to buy you that cassette tape by the LEMONHEADS.
Just because its called BOOMERS doesn't mean its explosive, but there
are always reports of explosions at SNUFFERS, it sezs so right here in
the daily Snuffers Gazette, a well respected (ya better :)) mob run
newspaper.

Yes, Kelly. According to Soap Opera Digest (Dec. 22), on Friday, the
18th, someone will be murdered. Yes, it seems Jeremy is faking it. He
got up during yestarday's show and struggled with Butler. Remember,
Jer was a monk - he probably can go into a death-like trance and play
possum...allowing him to heal his wounds and regain his strength (and
so the makeup artists can redo his makeup).

Friday is a VCR alert day.

  You won't get an arguement from me.  While there are moments that are

  understandably.  I was hoping for the big-bang finale too, but it doesn't

Did Ross know who his parents were?  I know he was related to both Adam and
Palmer and didn't he at one point change his last name to Chandler?

And what about Skye?  At the very least, she was a long-lost daughter.

And Mark Dalton, since he and Erica didn't know they were half-siblings
for a while...


That's all I can come up with right now...  Sorry if I'm all wrong about 
these -- sometimes I just remember history a little differently...

I don't suppose there's any way you could put a plug in for those of
us who watch SB, could you?  Maybe tell him there are several zillion
people on the net (OK, so I exaggerate a little) who don't want our
soap to die, or would at least like it to get a second chance in
syndication or on cable in reruns, could you?  Nothing else seems to
have worked, maybe a little big-time press coverage would do us some
good...

Sorry, Y'all...

	I guess that I should have thought a moment before using the term
"archive" on the net.  

	At present, the script archive that I posted about is a PAPER
archive (400+ cubic feet of paper, to be exact).  A microfilming project is
underway, but there are no plans to create an e-archive of the scripts.

	However, any of you researchers or rabid fans are welcome to spend
a few days in the Pop Culture Library here in beauuuutiful Bowling Green,
Ohio perusing scripts till your heart's content.

				sorry for the confusion!

Yea!  What Karin says!

I have been single-mom-ing-it ever since moving up here in July.  Without
ANY breaks, since I don't have any friends here and my husband (Laurel's
dad) hasn't moved up yet.

This experience has given me much respect for single parents.

The only thing that I can say about my husband not being here, yet, is
that at least I get to watch my daily AMC tape after Laurel goes to
bed.  When he moves up, I will be dependant on dear Margaret Gibbs' email
service to get my AMC fix.

Oh, the sacrifices one makes in life!-)
