	Yes, you are out of line.  You should read the newsgroup long
	enough to see the FAQL before posting to it.  

	We have just been through a very civilized discussion on 90210

Pretty impressive -- all I can add is that I think the (old blond)
Dixie (with southern accent) found the body. There was also all that
business about Nat's rug, b/c Silver was rolled up in it and she 
kept convincing peoiple who stopped by that the rug was being
cleaned.  Those scenes are really vivid for some reason.

Two stories today:

SHEILA:  Sheila is telling her shrink that she didn't make up with Lauren
being sidetracked by an accident, but she knows that Lauren will never
forgive her.  He asks if she has any mutual friends with Lauren.  First
Sheila says she can't trust anyone, but then thinks of someone she was
once close to.  She could be the answer, but she could also destroy me.
Once the Doc has left, she convinces herself this could be the solution.
"It always comes down to you and me, Mom".  Sheila reminds herself that
she has changed, she can let her mom know that, and mom will tell Lauren
(yeah right!).  She phones her mother, puts on a plummy English accent,
and passes herself off as an old college friend who has only just heard
about Sheila's death.  Sheila's mother gets upset and points out that
Sheila was evil and deserved to die.  (What was Sheila's mother's part
in the whole Genoa city Sheila/Lauren scenario ?  Methinks having got the
Y&R people over to B&B once, Bell are not going to let them go that easily)
Sheila is not slowed down by this, she decides that her mother is NOT going
to let her down.

TAYLOR: It is Taylor's mother's birthday and she is taking the day off to
mourn the both her mother's death and the ensuing decline of the Hamilton
family values.  She tells Ridge that she has given up on Zack. After ten
years of no contact despite her ads and private dectectives, he must be
dead.  Meanwhile a very alive Zack is at his dad's saying today's the day.
Jack rings Taylor, ready to put Zack on the line, but Taylor says she does
not want to talk today, and is on her way to the chapel.  In the chapel,
she lights a candle and prays.  She is very distraught and at one point
wishes she could die so she could be with her mom and Zack again.  Zack
and Jack enter the chapel...cliffhanger for Friday.

Sorry it isn't as inventive as Jim, but oh well.

	At T&A, and at Walsh and Girlwide, for that matter, what exactly do

	(I can't remember if Evan does, I know Connor does.)

	By the way, I loved the next edition of "Patterns" about Weinies II.
	It was terrific.

	I've been swamped lately, so do enjoy the updates.

	Keep up the good interviews and reviews.

Hi everyone!

I haven't posted anything in a while, but I've been here reading.

I skipped DOOL for about a month and then came back about 2 weeks
ago when I found out they were going to kill off Iz.  Not that
I wanted to see her, but now that I know she won't be here much
longer, I don't mind watching her so much.

Is it me or has Bo done a complete 180?  I don't even recognize
his character anymore.  That moustache is stupid too.  

I really like the fact that Carly is on Lawrence's shitlist now.
Its about time someone didn't like her.  Its even better that
Nicky doesn't like her.

BTW, I love Lawrence, I always have.  He's very cute and I love
his eyes and the way he looks right through people.  I used to
like him with Lisanne, but her character has gone down the 
toilet too.  The Lisanne that they introduced initially is not
a desperate woman who has to use her body to get what she wants.
It seems like they are putting her in uglier outfits lately too.
I think that Crystall's comment about their love scenes might
have had something to do with this plan to trash Lisanne.

I can't believe Crystall had the nerve to complain about Larry
and Lisanne's sex scenes when she was boinking Bo in every 
episode - and she was doing it topless too.  Remember that
ice cube scene over the summer??? Seems if anyone should be
mad it should be Michael Sabatino.

BTW, I'm going say something very unpopular now.  I like Austin!
Not Asstin.  I think he is the sexiest thing to come down the
pike in a very long time (except Lawrence maybe).  I also like
Carrie.  When she was wrapped up in that business with Lawrence
I think she got a lot better.  I think she is showing more facets
of her character and I think she is doing a good job.  I really 
liked when she was telling Austin about how she tries too hard
when she cares for someone.  It was very real.

Now, why she works fulltime and goes to school parttime just to have
her own place when she could just live in the dorm and let Dad
pay for it is beyond me.  Does anyone actually finish college on
this show?  Did Jenn ever graduate?  What about Frankie?

Everyone seems to start school, but then they just kind of forget
about it.

I'm not crazy about Tim.  He really annoys me and I don't know why.

Well, I guess there's something for everyone on DOOL, huh (now I'm
entering the slogan competition) :).

Did I misunderstand this, or are you implying that Jenna could be
