Okay, I have tentatively decided to post a little now and then (because I
can't stand it!), but only on the weekends, for now.

Some comments:

	o Dixie's deadbolt might work better if it weren't of the Lee
	  Press-On variety.  Actually, I looked at it more closely
	  Friday, and it's not a deadbolt, just a kind of sliding latch
	  on the inside not much stronger the average outhouse sliding
	  lock, particularly since it only slides into something screwed
	  (or glued) into the door jam - way secure, Ditsie!

	o Was it just me, or did NewNat's bandages look like they were
	  mostly concentrated on her eyebrows on Thursday (Wed?)?

	o They certainly seem to be going out of their way to make Haley
	  jiggle a lot these days.  That time she went jogging with
	  Charlie and passed out, she just kept hopping up and down with
	  the camera focused mostly on her breasts.  I wasn't sure if I
	  was watching AMC or 3's Company.  I feared Lance would get a
	  concussion watching them.

	o Ditto the comments on NewNat's ridiculous enforced bedrest and 
	  Tom's new hair/face.

	o Okay, who says "ya know" more often:  Ditsie on AMC or MaDonna
	  on Nightline (after MTV banned her video). 

	o Angelique is supposed to have been basically suspended for 15
	  years of her personality development, and she was supposedly a
	  very carefree, spirited girl of about 21 (I'm guessing) at the
	  time of her accident.  All things considered, why does she act
	  so mature?  She's even more matronly than Ditsie was.  And look
	  at that benefit she threw together for the entire town.  She's
	  usually very reasonable and mature and has very high self-esteem
	  except when it comes to Igor.  Where did she acquire all this
	  experience self-assurance and wisdom?  Wouldn't her taste in 
	  clothes still run to the younger look, even if it didn't look 
	  right any more?  And just where did Helga learn to cut hair the
	  way she did for the garden party?  Angel's hair was SPIKED on
	  top!  Seems to me Helga would rather run naked thru the party
	  than spike her precious daughter's hair!

	o Trask didn't go to war (but I'll bet they SAY he did).  When he
	  went to marine boot camp, the war had already started, and he
	  would have been in boot camp for 4 months from what my son said
	  (my son went for 2 months in the navy, plus another 2 months
	  specialized training).  The war only lasted about 6 weeks.

	o I almost choked laughing when Ditsie tried to comfort Brian by
	  denying that he had screwed anything up.  He screwed things up
	  no matter HOW you look at it!

	o I didn't actually faint when I was pregnant, but I had a very
	  strange experience that was the turning point of letting the
	  cat out of the bag.  I was taking a written soccer test along
	  with everyone else in P.E., and we were standing on the
	  benches in the locker room, writing on top of the lockers.  
	  I started to feel extremely light-headed and sick.  It was so 
	  bad I had to tell the teacher.  She took one look at me, announced 
	  that I was turning green, and assigned someone to help me to the 
	  nurse's office.  Good thing she did, because on the way, I lost 
	  my vision! Everything gradually turned to the kind of fuzzy snow 
	  you see on an unassigned tv station, and my eyes were wide open!  
	  After laying down a while, my vision returned, but my mom was 
	  called to the school and the shit, of course, hit the fan from 
	  then on!

Well, this is lots more than I intended to post, but I shouldn't have as
much saved up by next weekend.  I've been reading all along and enjoying
all the posts.  Welcome to all the new posters!
