Hi guys,

This is what I get for not logging in!  Thanks to Joanna and Tim for
emailing me this.   What a hoot.  I hope someone thinks of another poll.
I wanna play.

I cannot believe I have to wait til the end of OCTOBER.  I don't think
CBS gives a hoot about this show.  grumble grumble.

        Wow Greg beat out Abby.  For you guys that voted how about
        generating some chatter on this.  Why is Greg a 'beater' character
        than Abby?  Don't get me wrong I love this guy.  I mean LOVE.
        I guess I was under the impression that people thought that Abby
        made Knots Landing.

        Julie and Chip tie???  I would've never thought of them 'together'
        Strange sensation.

        Why did everyone vote for Julie?  I liked
        her okay.  I thought she was a knock-out and that she had a lot
        of potential but I don't remember them ever using it.

        Mortsky.  What a hoot.  Jeez why do I have to wait til October.
        MORT and BOB had better be back.  They can help all the new
        owners.  I'm sure Mort will be very helpful.

        Doesn't Jill deserve a higher placing for her 'Poor Val' speech?
        She was my hero that night.

        Two irritating characters that I miss.  Yes I miss Richard.

        I bet a lot of this vote came from the people who watched
        the old KL on TNT.

        I thought that there were some Val supporters out there.  Every time
        I think of Val, I think of one of the last shows wear she was wearing
        her lipstick really strange.  Someone said it reminded them of the
        Joker.  :-)

Waiting for Thursday night to be special again,

Personal to Cara- hey girl, glad to see that you're still out there.
I hope you'll join in, whenever this season gets going.  I graduated(!)
and moved to Houston.
