YES!  I noticed this too!  She *is* heffing it these days.

I am an old fan of GH who only watches once in a while (I 
try to listen at work) and am only now cluing in to what's 
going on.  How is Bobbie taking the fact that Tif and Sean
will be raising Lucas now?  I can't believe she would take
this so well.  Knowing the old Bobbie, I would think this
is driving her out of her already wacky mind.  I mean, 
do you remember the things she did to keep the child?

Maybe it's me ...

Well, Another lurker has come back... 

Re: Dimitri/Jackson/Trevor's weight...   Jackson/Trevor seem
to have a more even distribution... I've always thought clothes
looked strange on Dimitri - Maybe he's been gaining weight... but
That "count" outfit just was awful... It looked like he was more
pregnant than opal... Erica's cabbage should have been there to cover
it...

re: Tad coming back - goody... but does that mean charlie will be leaving ?
The characters seem too similar - 2 p.i.'s w/ dark hair and teeth...hmm
maybe there's a plot line there... I think tad/dixie will be back together
for a little while but it won't last.  Hayley/Charlie would be good together.

I have a comment about Trevor's Ties... I saw an ad for a "do it yourself"
tie kit - you can design your own ties... I thought "gee this is perfect
for a xmas gift for the character of Trevor to receive from timmy or someone."
Then he can color his own awful ties! (actually they'd probably come out
better if he did them himself!) ... 

Oh well back to lurking again.. (I've been too busy  to read this lately!)

Hi y'all.  I felt like posting some comments about AW, so
here goes....

The apartment complex that Dean/Jenna moved into is beginning
to seem like Melrose Place.  Way back when Kelsey came to
Bay City, she had to move into a "seedy" neighbourhood and
even get a room-mate in order to make the rent and still afford
to feed herself. (Speaking of the room-mate, where the hell is
Stephanie, anyway?).  Now Kelsey's apartment is looking much bigger
and better than it originally did.  Then the do-gooders Dean and
Jenna move in.  Now this apartment complex is becoming trendy.
Next we find out the Ryan actually owns the place, and that
Matt Cory is considering taking the apartment next to Dean/Jenna's.
What is going on here?  Are there no other places to live in
Bay City?

I agree totally, supposedly Kelsey lived in a one-bedroom apt. with Stephanie
now this place looks really big. Also is Stephanie still slaving for Grant? or
did Vicky arrange to get rid of her? But I do have to mention that while Kelsy
was in the mentor program she had no in-coming income, but she is working in
the blood lab and that is a paying job.


I could not stand that supposed "College Entrance Exam" story that

Lily and Hannah were involved in.  How could Hannah take the
test, if (a) she was still in high school because she FAILED the
previous year, and (b) she is not a "special" student (i.e. she
was in the U.S. school system)?  This was really stupid IMHO. At
least Hannah/Lily will be off the show soon.

Again I agree. But Hannah didn't fail because she was dumb, she just never went
to class. But what I want to know is what about Lilly's family and all, she
just ups and goes to school and damn them all? I think Hannah could have worked
if they the writers would have aged her and gave her a decent storyline.


I loved Frankie's hair on Nov. 3rd's show!  She looked great.
I'm glad that the hospital hearing is not tearing Frankie and
Cass apart, just because they're on opposite sides.

I liked Frankie's hair too, gave her a totally serious more adult look.


Well, that's it for now...

Okay....yesterday Clair(e) shot Playdooh-Man in the back of the
skull. Oddly enough...I rather enjoyed the final scenes of the
show. It was rather well done. I take it now that Lacey is there
to protect Kim. She mentioned "men" who use big knives to symbolize
their power and then abuse people with it. I can accept the Lacey
character as away to detach herself from things. However, why is
she such a party character instead of a strong woman. Or is it that
through sex she is the dominate one and gains power? So if Lacey
is the one to protect Kim, what is the reason for Clair(e) who
is more of a vicious, violent character? I was really shocked that
some much happened so quickly--that Roman questioned Kim, was
suspecious, found the tape, realized it was significant, viewed
the tape, questioned Philip, and that Philip told the truth,
and that Clair shot him. I guess this means that Kim will be
arrested and due to her illness will be institutionalized. 

But alas why this stupid storyline about Asstin boxing? I can see it
now. He fights, he breaks his had, plus with that glass jaw of his
gets knocked out in the first round. Because he broke his hand he
many never, ever play the piano [ha ha ah ahahahah] again. Can
you say CONTRIEVED boys and girls. Then we will be feed crappy
scenes with a distraught Asstin sulking and pushing Scarrie away,
and Scarrie sticking by her man and trying to provide emotional
comfort. YUCK.  Of course this boxing crap is an excuse--since it
is winter--for Asstin to go without a shirt and show off his chest.
Afterall he can't act and thus show flesh we stupid viewers prefer
flesh to talent anyway.

And for a major heart-attack and under going surgery Viv looked 
pretty good. Gosh, it took me a couple of months to recover last
Feb. and my condition was no where nears hers. I should have had

On the show Wednesday (11/4), I wish I could have started
at the beginning of the show how many times Nikki (or one
of the other characters said) "HIV - THE VIRUS THAT CAUSES
AIDS).  It must have been said at least a dozen times.  I
asked my husband if it annoyed him as much as it annoyed
me, but he just shrugged his shoulders.  Do the writers
(or maybe more specific - Bill Bell) think that his viewers
are so stupid they don't know by now that HIV is the virus
that causes AIDS?

I see a major problem here when Bo adds up the fact that Zeus was not
among the items taken.  Then, on Tuesday, when Bo tells everyone of
Lisanne's demise, Larry's "She must have come back, gotten all her
stuff and left again," just won't wash.  Why didn't he say, "She must
have been rushing back into town to make everything okay again."
That way, it wouldn't appear that she had been leaving with all of her
worldly possessions except Zeus.  (Unless they wind up saying that she
was so mean that she left Zeus to torment the recovering Vivian with
excessive allergic reactions!)

I think I would like it better if they were to allow Larry and Ivan
to get away with it.  After all, no one would punish Niki for the 
homicide; it *was* an accident.  So we could have overlooked the
coverup, since it would have only protected the cute kid while
providing the opportunity for his parentage to come out.

Instead, they are going to make it all convoluted.  Perhaps this is
TPTB's way of redeeming Larry: Have him serve penance for Niki's
accident in lieu of serving true penance for rape, attempted 
murder, bad story lines, .....
