I caught that too and I wanted to say it, but you beat me out MJ.  That was
pretty funny.  And then later on, when Bo ran to save Marcus from the 
crazed junkie, I thought he ran like Mighty Mouse.  I had to rewind and rewatch.It was a scream.  He did this little run and skip thing with his arms making
little circles like he was rowing or something.  Pretty damn funny.

I thought it was pretty tasteless to throw that name in there, of all
names.  What was the point?   Somebody should have caught it and had
him use another name.

Oh geez.  :-)   Well, I'm glad to hear you speak your mind on this.  I
can't say that Kim has done anything to rave about since she got back,
but I do think she is doing a very decent job with what she has been
given.  She obviously has chemistry with most of the people she needs 
to work with, particularly Marcus and Shane.  I do miss her relationship
with Kayla, but I won't get started there.  We don't want a slobberfest,
as in Rick's excellent mystery!  Now I was just kidding about all the 
"Patsy brought the ratings up" BS.  But, I have just been informed by
Tammy that Soap Opera Digest had made a similar comment.  Basically they
attributed the rise in the DOOL ratings to the return of Patsy.  Hmmmmm,
maybe I was on to something and not *ON* something after all.  But I
was probably "on something" too, so who knows?  


>	Is it possible to sue Corday for mental anguish??


He'd be bankrupted in no time! 



And now some more comments:


Please, someone kill Bo.  Like Joanna said, he is just too much with the
nasty tone of voice and the sour looks on his face.  I can't believe that
we are supposed to buy him as a hero.  The whole thing with saving Marcus
was just too dumb.  Did that look like it was thrown in at the last minute
or what?  Not that I'm voting for dragging things out, but hey, maybe it
would have been nice to have Marcus and one other [Kim, perhaps] taken
captive at the end of a show.  Then the next show or two could be spent
with the cops trying to resolve the matter.  They still could have made
Bo a hero by failing to follow orders [gag!], just differently.


Vivian and Lisanne are just awesome together.  I enjoyed their last fight
quite a bit.  Lisanne knows just how to push Viv's buttons, and Vivian
takes it all in stride.  I had to crack up when Lisanne said she was from
Teaneck, NJ.  I work not too far from there and let me tell you, it isn't
too pretty a place.  Wouldn't you say Kelly Jean and Beth?  But I guess
Lisanne was just making a joke, judging by her comments later.


I would figure that the boy's name is spelled NICKY.  I've never seen it
any different in the masculine form.


This Victor/Vivian thing is turning out pretty interesting.  I'd love to
see a nice romantic story with them both really falling in love and Vivian 
having to sneak around.  We may actually get this so I better keep my wishing
down before I blow it.


Where the hell is Julie?  At least for a while there she was getting some
lines from time to time.  Now she has nothing to do but answer the phone at
Wings and look around for Carly's lost personal items.  Puh-lease!


And lastly, to Janet...   great .sig!!!  I'm VERY impressed.  That is one
of my favourites from Green.
