Well, I'm back from Rhode Island (actually got back on the 29th and haven't
had time to post) and Christmas itself was pretty good.  The days following
were a minor disaster.  Anyway, I did get to meet Kathy Kirman for lunch the
Saturday after Christmas.  As both our schedules were hectic it was short
but fun.  It was great meeting you Kathy.

Now on to the show.  I manage to watch the soaps every day while I was 
away and have some comments about various things:

THE TRIAL - why the hell didn't Jack call Haley or for that matter Natalie
to testify against Adam.  He sure missed the mark on this one. So did Livia.

NATALIE -  I could have slapped that stupid grin she has right off her face
when she started whining that she had to spend Christmas in her new house
even though the movers cancelled and there was a major storm brewing outside.
Instead she let Trevor call his buddies at the station to help out.  Excuse
me but doesn't anyone else have a life.  (The Queen is dead, long live the
Queen)  I also got pissed at her when she freaked out about her angel not
being wrapped in tissue paper.  She made Timmy feel so bad, talk about
child abuse.  I also did not like the hokey way that she got her sight back.
OK, I can see her seeing glimmers of light, but all of a sudden having 20/20
vision.  I know, I know, IOAS.

TAD & DIXIE:  If they get back together can you just see Dixie getting upset
and jealous every time Tad visits Jamie.  This will be what breaks them up. 
Dixie will become to clinging for Tad to handle.

LOVEBUG DELIVERY:  OK, I can buy Palmer delivering the baby, but what I can't
by is the fact that Palmer couldn't get his car out of the drive because of
the ice (where was the staff), it was going to take the ambulance an hour 
to get there because of the storm,  but Goria and Stewart made it there 
within five minutes of Pamer calling Joe, and Palmer told Joe not to come
because he would get stuck also.   Also Dixie, et all made it to the pagent
OK.  Was the strom only taking place over Cortland Manor?

CONTINUITY:  See above, where was the raging storm if Dixie walked to the
pagent and then later on walked home and both she and Tad stopped at the 
park to look at the stars........?????

DIXIE:  I know we said before that the girl is a few bricks short of a load,
but her showing up at Adam's to take Junior to see Ted/Tad without Adam's
permission.  Doesn't she remember the custody hearing and the visitation
rights, or did she really think Adam would say yea, sure, go ahead take the
kid.  (Wake up Dixie)

JACK:  I'm getting tired of the poor me attitude.  Maybe the car accident
will knock some sense into him.

NOLA ORSINI:  Will she leave everything to Tad even when she finds out he
is not her real son, or will she die before the truth is revealed?  You know
she has to die, how else can this story go on without giving Ted/Tad a 
major guilt trip of abandoning this woman who took him in when he was in 
need.

Well, hope every had a nice holiday and that the New Year brings nothing
but Joy and Happiness to all.

Patricia - still recovering from whiplash
