I couldn't tell you where Mansfield is but that is really neat that you
are going there, since this isn't related to AMC when you do go, send
me some e-mail and tell me all about it (if you want), I'd be really
interested.  Someone here told me that Little House is still on one

The only thing I remember is that Lauren and Scott had separated because
Lauren was unsure of her feeling for Paul.  I don't see what this has to
do with Scottie.  I'd like to see your point, but I'm missing it.  Can
you please explain?  I hope your point isn't that people who decide to
separate from or leave their spouses are not entitled to custody of
their children!

I agree that Paul is braindead, but what sort of issue are you talking
about?  By the way, why hasn't Lauren hired a lawyer for the custody
battle?  Surely she isn't going to let Paul handle it - or is he going
to suddenly have a double major (like Taylor, for all you B&B fans -
oncologist turned overnight psychiatrist).

Lauren has always been one of my favorite characters on Y&R, since
way back to her college days with Tracy and Danny.  She's very strong
and goes after what she wants.  She's not a whimp like Ashley, who lets
her husband walk all over her for weeks before doing anything about it,
or Cricket, who is always on some crusade to "save woman-kind from
the evils that she has had to endure".  If I have to hear, "...if I can
just save one woman from..." one more time, I'm going to throw up!
Even Tracy, who was supposed to have come back strong and self-confident,
couldn't get over her insecurities until another man came along to
rescue her.  I won't even get started on Flo and Nina.  Dru had a chance,
but they still refuse to give her a brain. The only strong women on the
show are Jill, Victoria, and Lauren.
 
So, I'll say it again....GO, LAUREN!!!!!!

You're right, but I always wonder if all these people forget about that
5 years (or so) gap where "Roman" was gone.  I would think that Bo
would be so thankful to have him back their relationship would improve.

I think that died along with the Lisanne & Shane pair up.  Apparently

his disability.

I think she's talking about the hood who was stealing drugs from the

Subject: DOOL: How to kill SWSRN
Organization: Clemson University
Date: Thu, 13 Aug 1992 19:36:40 GMT

Hi.  Since Evil Vince is having problems of his own, he kindly returned my
mail of how to do in SWSRN.  I decided to see if this PC I'm forced to use
these days (I find it obscene that I work exclusively in a VMS environment
and use a Telex PC w/ an IBM monitor, but I digress) will handle what I'm 
about.  Here goes....


Let's see if I can be convincingly off-the-wall.  SWSRN (She-Who-Shall-Remain-
Nameless) decides that she wants to have her hair be two-tone; colors don't
matter, just two-tone.  She heads to her hairdresser who decides that midnight
brown and plantinum blonde would be just too rad for words and starts to work.
Because said hairdresser is no rocket scientist, nor much to SWSRN's misfortune
a chemist, puts both products on at once creating a combustible chemical
reaction, which puts the explosion that got Ernesto and Hope to shame.  The
entire salon goes up in flames.  No more SWSRN or stupid hairdresser.

No?  Well how about this.

Larry and Viv set up John to be offed by an accident at the loading dock.  
SWSRN learns of the setup just in time to arrive at the dock to warn John
and the load meant for........ that sounds too familiar and too gauche.


Hey, it worked.  Maybe I can live with it.  Later.


Aside to Tiny Tim (tm kudos to Spud for this new name for the Timinator):

I totally agree.  Dylan seems so much happier with Kelly.  Brenda is
stuck up and always wants Dylan to be stuck up and never have any fun.
I loved the scene where Kelly and Dylan were on that jet ski.  They were
having a blast.  Brenda would never do anything like that.  She might
get wet.  I can't wait until this week when she tells Kelly I think
Dylan was seeing someone while I was gone.  He-- she was to.  I am gonna
back Kelly and Dylan all the way.

Connie


I think stuck-up better discribes Brenda than what I said about her not
knowing what she wants. You would think Brenda is the spoiled rich kid the
way she acts (although I know all rich kids are not spoiled, snotty brats,
it best discribes Brenda's attitude).

BTW, have you ever noticed how Brenda speaks with her teeth clenched together?
It drives me crazy. She does it the most when she is irritated with something.
Which is always.

I think it would be great if Dru put all her anguish into her ballet
and went on to become quite successful...unbeknownst to Neil.  Neil would
go to the ballet and see her perform and fall in love with her again.
However Dru, having been hurt too badly and having matured by her mistakes,
rejects his renewed advances.  Give 'im a taste of his own Formula 44!

I liked Neil when he first started on Y&R, but his character's too righteous.
He's always the first to dump on Dru for her faults when he's not perfect 
himself.  He's also a real bootlicker.  He always kowtows to Mr. Boss Abbott 
at Dru's expense.  I also think that Dru has been portrayed as too naive 
lately.  I mean, how dumb could a "street-wise" kid be?  The Dru character 
has a lot of potential to be One Smart Cookie, and I hate to see her play the
dummy.  

I would also put my money on the death of Black Barbie.  Even though a real 
death on Y&R is incredibly rare (they have a way of coming back to life!).

And finally, I just got back from vacation and I must say : THANKS for

Hey, ya'll...

Why must she be written as some weirdly naive character now?

I think that it happened @ 1983 or 1984... Was it because she was in love
with Kurt (MacColl...Lisa's then-husband's wild son) or Jay?  Or did she
just run home because she couldn't take it?  (I remember this really funny
scene in which Frantic (the real redheaded one with freckles) was moving into
her dorm and was sort of bamboozled by all of the chaos of a co-ed floor,
loud music, people moving matresses around, etc....)
