Good point!

I don't consider either of them a slut, but if we're being
consistent, why not yell at Dr. Steve for sleeping with Galen when he was
still in love with Ditsie, and Adam and Erica for sleeping with everybody!
Sorry, couldn't resist! I don't really think anyone's a slut.

Speaking of sex,
I agree with people posting about why-didn't-Brian-mention-condoms; I suspect
that AMC was trying not to ruffle any feathers. I find it kindof an ironic
twist that people aren't offended to see soap characters acting in ways
they wouldn't accept in "real people", but some people can get very upset
when soap characters are shown dealing more realistically with issues of
sex [ and safer sex ]

I am glad we made you feel comfy with us Gayle! (-:
I too have been flamed by newreaders and I know how 
bad it can make you feel even if your innocent....!

As an example I wrote in the camping/fishing type group because I
was going camping and wanted to know how to clean a trout
and cook it on a campfire. 
Well I only know how to post by following up another
article. Well of course the article cross posted to a skiing
alias because they were talking about ice fishing or something
on the article I used.
Do you want to know how many mean and cruel responses I got!!!!
Boy skiers are sure mean! (-:


Hang in there Gayle.
Hope you enjoy this group.

A night with a Psychopath... or is he?
  Felicia spends an evening having dinner in NYC with Dr. Stalker. He
puts his figurative cards on the table, declaring his interest in her.
She tells him she can't make any promises. He probes her on Mac's
progress in finding out what happened to her. When she is away from
the table he has a flahsback.. He is in Texas, and his wife (or
girlfriend, not sure which) comes in and says she confronted that slut
Felicia Jones, and threatened to kill her if she went near him again.
She tells Dr. S that she'll never let him go..... Coming out of it,
the good Dr. spikes Felicia's drink with amnesia juice. She comes back
and drinks up.
Jacuzzi time!!!
  AJ and Nikki spend the show in Ned & Jenny's jacuzzi. *yawn* She
keeps telling him not to give up on his family.
One big happy family!
  Ned&Jenny&Paul&Tracy bicker and yell and snarl and posture at the
cabin. Oh yeah, Dylan cries a lot. Finally, Jenny goes off for a walk,
followed by Ned. Paul and Tracy avoid any meaningful communication,
and Ned and Jenny make out in the woods.
A stranger is watching...
  Jason, Jaegger, and Karen all rendevous down on the pier, to discuss
the letters they got. They figure it must have been Attica Joe, and
get scared. They go back to the Q mansion, and settle into the
jacuzzi, only just vacated by AJ and Nikki. They angst some more.

That's it folks.. at least no Chimps in the Jungle today!!!!!

                        *BEVERLEE McKINSEY LEAVES GL*

               According to the August 25th issue of Soap Opera
               Weekly Beverlee McKinsey is leaving GL.  Her last
               appearance on the show will be Aug. 18th.  It was
               her decision not to return to the show following
               her current six week vacation.  No decision has
               been made of the future of the role of Alexandra.

                       Wonder what brought that on?     

                       The character of Nick lost his
                       bride-to-be and now his mother
                       for the second time.  I cannot
                       imagine Vincent Irizarry is too
                       happy about this current chain
                       of events.  The role of Mindy is
                       taking forever to be recast and
                       it would seem the role of Alex
                       would be irreplaceable.  With the
                       loss of Sherry Springfield IMO
                       this show is going through a very
                       rough time.

Erica never married Nick Davis or Mike Roy. I think Nick left town before
they were supposed to get married, and Mike Roy died.

From memory, I believe this was the order:

1.  Jeff Martin
2.  Phil Brent
3.  Tom C.
4.  Brandon Kinsley
4.  Adam Chandler
5.  Travis M. ( twice )

I don't recall any others.

Hellow to all the Wardees and Wardettes,

	I'm back from vacation and finally caught up on all the back log of
postings and
video tapes.  To add the the discussion about all the dependent women, I
agree, the writers
need input from some of the independent women like moi, and the rest of
the Wardettes.

	Also, what irks me is the twitty and jerky men!!  Ron Gillette (we need a good
nickname for him) is on the top of my list.  Where does he get off
talking to TheSlut's 
friends like that?  (The dark ages have been over a long time, Ron, when
men were the
Lords and Masters.)

	And H2D, give me a break!  I used to think he was O.K. (maybe) until
after that
beach dance scene.  (I am into dancing, and thought Frantic was very
limber, and that H2D
did O.K. just standing there and lifting her.  Granted he didn't do
much, but I was just
looking at the dance, not in the context of a totally stupid, seemingly
out of context
beach scene.  Like I break into a dance all the time like that with my
soon to be husband.)
After his new-do and the way he is acting (maybe always acted), he is a
total twit!  

	And furthermore, as I was standing in the super market line, I was
flipping through
one of the Soap Magazines (can't remember which one) and saw a spread on
the Sexiest Men in
Soaps.  And guess who was featured?  You guessed it, H2D!!!!  I wonder
who they polled?

	And take Scooter.  He is being to grow on you, and I hope they don't
turn him into
a twit/jerk.  

	And then we have Tomato and Anus, with the look.  Anus was a totol
twit, and seems
to be making his way back ( I hope) after the way he behaved with
Courtme and MeredithMonroe.
Tomato also seems to be working his way back with the way he is
supportive of Cargo.

	New Subject:  I propose a dance for the Ward.  While in Dance Camp, I
learned the
Achy Breaky, Cowboy Cha-Cha and the Tush Push (among a whole bunch of
Ballroom stuff).  Some
one else mentioned they knew the Achy Breaky.  So everyone put on your
dancing shoes!!!!

	caio-ski,
	Jania  

P.S.  There was a mention from someone to nickname me Ja-Ja or something
like that for egg.
I think we called eggs jaike (yai - kee) in Polish ( not sure of the
spelling)  Any way,
I couldn't make the connection.  I'd rather keep it Jania,
my-since-childhood nickname.

Greetings Wardsters --

From all of your posts I can tell that you are doing very well.  I have 
been lax in my postings lately and have decided that I had better get back 
in the Ward or get off the pill cart.

Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Love!  I hope you have many happy years 
together.  You had the better weather, however.  Patty and I were in a 
wedding on that very same day and it poured down rain!  I am happy that 
everything turned out so well for you.

Well, on to Whirley World --

My thoughts for Thursday's show:

- When Frannie was waiting for CandyCane, I had a flashback to childhood.  
I believe the show was "The Electric Company" in which the plumber comes to 
the front door of a house whose only occupant at the moment is a parrot.  
The plumber rings the bell and the parrot questions "Who is it?" 
"It's the plumber. I've come to fix the sink."
No response.
Plumber rings bell again.
"Who is it?" the parrot asks once more.
"It's the plumber. I've come to fix the sink."
Again, no comment from inside.
Ding-dong
"Who is it?"
"IT'S THE PLUMBER.  I'VE..COME ... TO ... FIX ... THE ... SINK!"
At which point the plumber passes out for possibly bursting every blood 
vessel in his head.
I couldn't help noticing the similarities to Thursday's show as Frantic 
stood in CandyCane's office and nearly all of Walsh came in and asked her 
if she was waiting for H2D. Each time she gave exactly the same answer that 
she had set up a meeting with CandyCane and planned to meet her here at 
the office.  And people say that PBS should be dissolved.  It seems that 
the plots are still good enough for daytime though.

-  Obviously the SnootSquad at the building in which Honky and Jesster are 
planning to live in are going to veto their application for the penthouse.  
You could tell that the all white "review board" was not impressed with the 
situation of an interracial couple and their dreams of beginning a family.  
I hope the MacKechnies sue the stock right out of them!  I also have the 
feeling that EdWienie will be the big ringleader to this whole mess.  What 
a wench!


- Finally, I hope that Tease was absolutely miserable in the pool house 
that night.  Too bad she didn't get locked in a broom closet.  I think K-Lip
was correct when he told duh that with the way Tease was, he wouldn't be 
surprised if she purposely tried to worry the farmboy.  


Well, that should be enough for now.  I have given a little info and now I 
am going to enjoy my goldenrod pills.

I don't know, I haven't had much time to watch SB this summer but when i
do turn it on it seems like everything is the same as it was the week
before.  Like the slaughterhouse story, that took about three days, and
we all knew that they's get out.  I just don't find any of it enjoyable
or believable anymore.  I wish they'd show Julia and Mason again, bump
off stupid old Kelly, and get Lilly and Rafe and Lisa moving
somewhere.They can bag the Cruz/BJ line for all I care, I used to love
Cruz, but now he's wimpy.
I'm getting so exsasperated that I've been watching reruns of
thirtysomething instead!

Sb NOT ENJOYABLE, oh come on. I know I always say to each his own.But SB is the
only show next to AW who has some decent storylines and plots. If you want to b

What is your point here steve?   Am I missing something.  Are you saying that

woman I was complaining about are married or have SO's.

Subject: GL: GOODBYE BEV!!

Hi--Just read the bad news (what a way to return from vacation) in the
latest SOW--Bev Mckinnsey is leaving GL---she shall exit TODAY (short
notice!).  This is really a sad moment for all of us--an awful time
storywise to see this happen and I just can't imagine recasting her! 
Anyway, wanted to pass on the sad news to all.  My neighbor took it so
hard that she doubled her before dinner martini.  Sounds serious. Be
sure to watch Alex leave Springfield.  Judi
