Tell Mr. Acker to up his asking price to $50,000.  I won't go lower than
that.  If he won't pay, I won't play.

	If this is the one that says virgins occasionally explode after
The First Time (tm), then you've definitely not made MY day...

	I did.   "Down in the rose bushes, the trellis broke!"  Old Joke (tm)

: Macy and Thorne do the simultaneous thought thing, but Karen is having none

: 
: Taylor and Ridge receive a hand delivered calligraphed card, and Taylor
: proceeds to tease Ridge about it being from Brooke.  (which it isn't.)
: Then, they go off and do Newlywed Things...

	Did it matter who it was from?

	I agree -- those writer's meetings must be doozies.  "Let's
bring back Caroline"  "But she's dead!"  "O.K., bring back her missing twin
sister!"  "Cool!"   "And get her involved with Thorne!"  "WHAAAAAT?"

: I think they definitely need more men on this show.  I'm getting a little

	True, especially since Zach is AWOL and Felicia got fired.
Dr. Joe Garvin?  Now there's a chin...

: Or Sahara.  (You know, they should just name the kid something ordinary
: like Polly or Fred.  Of course, there aren't too many people on the soaps
: named like that, so they'd end up sounding really esoteric!)

	Brooke wouldn't be so stupid as to name the kid Ridge Jr., would
she?  I'm betting it's a girl, anyways, and Brooke will name it
something subtle to remind Ridge he's a Ridgit -- like Europa.

p.p.s.  All those things I said about Thorne don't apply to Jeff.  Really.
