                       "The Continuing Story......."
     

            Was it as obvious to others as it was to me what the
            main theme to yesterday's show was?  Let me illustrate
            by keeping a tally of my findings:
            
            Lisanne found out Lawrence had a child by....   Carly

            Issabella was waiting for test results from...  Carly

            At the Hospital John wanted this person 
              to join him and Issabella in Ego Systems. 
              That person was ............................  Carly
              [By the way, why did he pick her?
               Is that company really called Ego??]
           
            Bo talked to Taylor about his problems with...  Carly

            Issabella was told she had cancer by..........  Carly
               {I have to say Staci, RKK, and
               Crystal's performances yesterday 
               were GOOD! Yes, I did shed a tear.]
               
            Bo was told Issabella had cancer by...........  Carly
               [By the way Carly should NOT have told
                Bo about Izzy's condition since she is 
                under patient/Dr. confidentiality.  I 
                never heard Izzy give her permission to
                do so].

            Lawrence went on a rampage to find Vivian and
               when that didn't succeed he looked for.....  Carly

                                                           -------

                I TOTAL this up to be a 90% "Carly Show"   *CARLY*



     I'm not blaming Crystal for this.  I sincerely doubt she put a
     gun to Ken's head and said "Either the entire show is written
     about "Carly" or there will be no DAYS at all".  This again 
     proves how much lust Corday has in his heart for Crystal.  The
     only storyline she hasn't managed to weave her way into is Kim's
     but the week isn't over yet.  She's not in J&J either but since
     they have no airtime it wouldn't be beneficial to Crystal.  Ken
     is most likely saving her shows so when Crystal is on vacation
     he can replay them in the privacy of his own home.

     Issabella mentioned that she read about a person who had Hodgkins.
     Wouldn't it have been nice if either she or Carly mentioned Jack?
     One of them could have said he was a survivor of cancer.  Who better
     for IzzyB to talk to than Jack -  an old friend of hers. Here is
     a man who not only survived this devastating desease but, a man 
     who thought he was going to die only a few short weeks ago.
     
     It seemed clear to me that Staci, Crystal, and RKK can act when 
     given decent material to work with.  If the writing continues to
     be good I think the acting will be too.  I do so wish Jack could
     be a source of comfort to Izzy!  Is that asking so much?
     
     I'll get off my podium now.  It's a three day Weekend!   Enjoy!!
