In honor of of Steve's request that us lurkers take advantage of Lurkers
Night Out, I decided to post.  However I'm posting a day early because I
won't be able to post on Tuesday.

O.K. O.K. - I guess I will come out from under Nursie's Pill Cart, although
I will be giving up my advantage to sneak all the pills I want with no one
the wiser!  Maybe I can sneak back on it now and again.

I started sneaking, I mean peaking in on the Ward back when there were only a
handful of crazies in the Ward - like Karen (BabyDoll), Rodney and Sam
(DocSam).  I loved reading BabyDoll's updates!  Then came along another bunch
of crazies and more and more beds were added to the Ward and JeepMeister took
over doing the updates, which are great too!

My aunt got me involved in watching ATWT about 4 years ago, but reading this
group on R.A.T.S. is what has kept my interest in the soap through some very
poor story lines.  I can always count on finding some spice in the Ward!

You get to see a lot that's going on in the other wards too, when you ride
Nursie's Pill Cart - that's how I met my husband.  Thanks to you, my husband
now has a different view of soaps.  I was talking to him one day about the
antics that go on here in Ward D and he decided to slip onto the pill cart
with me one day and visit you all.  He really liked what he saw and now has
started to watch the soap and all the loons in Ward D.

As far as things on the soap which I would like to rant and rave about:

I'm with studmuffette, this story line about Hold'em and Chilly is really got
me ticked off too!  Lets grab the writers and torture them, the way they
like to torture us!  We can lock them up with a T.V. and VCR and make them sit
there and watch Frantic and H2D's love dance on the beach over and over for
24 hours straight.  And if they try to nod off or not pay attention we can
give them a little shock.  What do ya think?  I'll leave it up to the other
Wardsters to see if we should think of a new torture for the second day!

Can you believe what they tried to pass off as Switzerland!  The show on
Friday, showed the Tram and what was suppose to be Switzerland - what a laugh!
If those are the Alps, I'd hate to see what smaller mountain ranges look like!
I can see it now - "See, over there are the Smokey Mountains."  "Where?"
"Right there in front of you."  "You mean those knolls?" "Yes."  I also
found the part where Frantic left her purse in the front seat of a convertible
really, really stupid!  O.K.  Wardetts, let's see a show of hands - how many
of you would leave your purse out in the open like that and not lock it up in
the trunk?

I do have to say that I did see a scene that I really did like on Wednesday's
show.  I loved the scene between Cabin and H2D!  Cabin's smirk was priceless
and there sat H2D saying, "Come on and pick up the damn phone!  I just loved
seeing H2D squirm!

Well, I've rambled on long enough - probably too long!  Maybe I should get
back on my Pill Cart again!
