Minor spoilers, perhaps.  Don't read this if you don't want to be spoiled...




I believe that, near the beginning of "Southern Comforts," specifically in
the scene in the kitchen when Al is talking about the crawfish gumbo, Al
states that whatshername is killed sometime in the somewhat distant future,
but that they traced events back to her disappearance sometime within the
twnety-four hours that Sam is there.  I'm not sure on this point, but I'll
check my tape tonight.  As God, Time, or Fate is my witness, I am going to
make this Guide accurate eventually!  :-)

Subject: DOOL: TAN: Soap Box Poll so far
Organization: Sadtler Research Laboratories
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 1992 13:12:22 GMT

So far in the Soap Box Poll, Quince is slightly behind
Julie as the most qualified to be President of the choices
we gave in the Soap Box Poll.  (DaCobb is neck and neck with
Doug for VP because of a write-in vote for Julie and Chip).

For those who missed the announcement, Quince and DaCobb have
entered the foray for President of the United States (and VP
respectively).  Since the original posting was over Labor Day,
I repost the Poll, and reiterate my invitation for all viewers
of DOOL to send the Quince and DaCobb ticket your views on
life in Salem, the country, and what you would like to see
in a President in 1992.  Next week Quince and DaCobb will be
posting the Soap Box Platform which will outline our position
on these important subjects.  Please send your ideas and poll
results to rick@sadtler.com (since Quince is quite busy
meeting with Pols and Pundits in attempt to position herself
for the fall election), or post here, (don't forget DOOL in 
the header line or I'll miss it).

Here's the repost of the First Quince and DaCobb Poll:

1. Order the following soaps by importance to a President.
   The President should watch:
     1. Days Of Our Lives
     2. Another World
     3. Santa Barbara
     4. Dark Shadows
     5. 15 (Nick's continuing High School drama)

2. Order the following DOOL characters by importance to a President.
   The President should try to emulate:
     1.  Dr. Carly Manning
     2.  Julie Williams
     3.  Vern Scofield
     4.  Victor K.
     5.  Eugene

3. Order the following activities by importance to President.
   The President should daily:
     1.  Shop at Ballistix
     2.  Listen to Jazz in the park.
     3.  Drive a Mini-van
     4.  Talk to Dr. Marlena Evans
     5.  Eat at Wings

4. Order the following issues by importance to you.
   The President should concentrate on:
     1.  Quality of Storylines in Soaps
     2.  Quality of Acting in Soaps
     3.  Consistancy in Storylines in Soaps
     4.  Storyline Dragout in Soaps.
     5.  National Health Care MiniVans

5. Order the following people by qualifications for President.
   I would most like to see as Presdident and VP respectively:
     1.  Quince and DaCobb
     2.  George and Dan
     3.  Bill and Al.
     4.  Doug and Julie
     5.  Julie and Doug


Step up on the Soap Box and Be Heard!  We will address all the issues
next week in our Soap Box Platform!

-Core Non DaCobb.  VP on the Quince and DaCobb Presidential Ticket.

Yesterday, while A-M was talking to Eleni about Frank's feelings for
her, he said something like, "For the life of me, I still can't see why
you would pick me over him."
That statement pretty much shocked me. A-M knows that Eleni only picked
him over Frank, because she doesn't know who the hell he is, or is
simply too stupid to know. He said he wants to change for her. Isn't it
a little too late? He's running away from being involved in a federal
crime. I can't wait for the entire springfield to find out that he's
behind Mallet losing his hearing and Lord knows what else.
What is going to happen to Spaulding Enterprises? Alex is out of town, A-M
just took off and Vanessa is so involved in her little triangle. The
only one who seems to be into working is Maureen. She might as well be
running the company.

Uh, Uh, Uh....I think it's too late.  

How about this for an idea - Everybody here should start saying wonderful 
things about Carly.  Bestow immeasurable praise on Crystal Chappel. Applaud
Ken Corday's wisdom for making her the star of the show.

That may be the only way to get rid of the character.  

It does seem pretty clear, by the way, that Lisanne's storyline was altered
for Carly's benefit.  TPTB decided to use Lisanne's character as a device
in the Carly/Larry story, and in doing so wrecked the character in a way
which made Herring want to vamoose.

Now, if the TPTB decide to completely rid the show of its good actors by
sending V & V off on a permanent cruise, I think I may end up as a
stowaway.     

Back to silence,
Greg

Hello everyone.  Seems like I keep popping in an out
of lurkerdom doesn't it?  I'm in the process of moving
and let's just say, things aren't going well.  But I digress....

Now on to the show stuff.

First of all I must say Isabella has improved a good deal.
But on Friday, I felt soooooooooooo sorry for John.  This poor
man has been through more sh*t than anyone on the soap I think.
What more can they do to this man?  I kind of wish he would
revert into himself rather than seek solace in Kimbo the Bimbo.
You know, get angry and not let anyone get close to him
for a while.  I think that's more in character than him hopping
into bed with first person he can.  I think all parties involved 
in the story are doing well.  They must be 'cause I've been in
tears during most of the scenes concerning Isabella's illness.
I just wonder what Larry's going to do.  I'm surprised he hasn't
stopped by to see how things are.  I think it would be good
if he tried to destroy John, but couldn't carry it through.  You
know the old 'blood is thicker than water' routine.  I don't think
that would all together redeem Larry's character, but show more
of his human side.  Of course with Vivian fighting him tooth and
nail all the way.  I guess that won't happen since she's busy
making goo goo eyes at Victor.

Anyway, this business with Lisanne (Lynn) leaving DOOL, I can't
say I blame her.  She is a great actress, but look at what Days
offered her.  Her story could have had possibilities, but again
this is days we're dealing with.  Her storyline sucks big time.

You know, I am getting a little sick of the way DOOL is treating 
the older cast members.  Why is it we only see Julie when Scarrie
needs a table at Wings, or food?  That's pretty demeaning.  Julie
(Susan) is a very talented actress and deserve much better than this.
Julie has been playing the sort of motherly character (to Eve, Molly
and now Scarrie) too long.  I wish they'd give her more to do.

And Asstin (good one Spud) is just that an ass.  I won't even bother
to get into is.

Marlena and Roman suck.  Get them off this show.  I thought Roman
(Wayne) was leaving.  Why isn't he gone yet?  I think Marlena was
so wooden when she went to see Isabella before the dinner party.
Now, I've never been one to pick on looks (physical) but Isabella
looks somewhat earthy, for lack of a better word, and Marlena looked
like someone jammed a pool stick up her ass (sorry for the vulgarity).
It was like she was looking down on her condescendingly.  I almost
felt sorry for Isabella.  I don't know, maybe I just feel sorry for
Isabella cause she's dying.  Anyways, I think the whole Roger thing
is hokey.  He looks like the Marlboro man (the one in the white hat)
to me.

	Gotta run, department meeting....ugh..............

That was always the impression I got too. I wish they would reveal something

HEEHEEHEEHEEHEE I had to giggle at this because I agree wholeheartedly.
However, if this is the case shouldn't someone also be trying to drive
H2D2 crazy because of his AWFUL HAIR?????

Now here are some other ideas and complaints...

When George Jetson was on the phone talking to his "boss" and we the 
audience were led to believe that he was talking to Anthony Harper I kept
thinking that he was really talking to Joe Bailey (head of the Crime 
Commission). I think he's been working under cover to try and get the goods
on H2D2....

Did anyone else notice when H2D2 came back from the Cabin (supposedly) 
after he told Frantic that the sherriff (sp?) had asked him to stay there
overnight, and he, Frantic and Nancy (does she have a nickname BTW) were 
sitting on the Hughes' patio (drinking iced tea as usual) the phone rang
and H2D2 answered it and said "Crawford residence"???  Did that really happen
or did I just dream it??  If it happened, WHAT A DWEEB!!!! Doesn't he even
know where he is. And why didn't any of the directors or writers or actors
or stage hands or ANYONE catch this??? Inconsistencies like that really 
annoy me. Just call me picky...

Since I'm relatively new at this posting business, could anyone please tell
me when you're responding to a post, HOW do you deleted parts of the previous
post you don't want without having to delete character by character???

Also, does anyone else agree that posting is almost as addictive as the
soaps themselves???

This was read at my wedding, at the very end just before my husband

with:

You are two bodies but there is only life before you.
Go now to your dwelling place and enter into the days
of your togetherness.
And may your life be good, and long together.


I like this version better.  I wish I had seen it earlier.
Since I missed about 4 weeks of DOOL so far, would someone

I don't blame her for leaving, and I'm not upset.  They didn't do anything
with her, I didn't like her with Larry, I didn't find her particularly
attractive or interesting to watch.  Perhaps Lemon Joanna's more seasoned eye
recognized latent acting talent, but I couldn't see it.  Maybe I couldn't get
