Various insightful comments -- there are some TANS at the end of this
list if anyone wants to skip the TANS.

THOUGHT for the day.  There are FOUR soaps on ABC, Loving, All My
Children, One Life to Live, and General Hospital.

Genie Francis - at the ripe old age of twenty something(?) has been
killed off on three of the four soaps.

Pam Nelson and Karen Morgan - THANKS for the MEK report.

Well, David Brinkley went FURTHER down in my estimation while I was
watching part of the parade.

He doesn't even know who LAMBCHOP is for goodness sake.

Maybe he requests extra pay when working with Brinkley.

I figured YOU'D notice him shirtless and covered with sweat.  :^)

She has been TERRIFIC lately - but emmys are awarded on the basis of
ONE show - and if you don't follow the storyline you really won't get
the subtle humor.

It WAS great though.

Not to demean Donna's update but back in the OLD days, when CAZ use to
do ALL the updates (EVERYDAY) she would sometimes have abbreviated
updates -- THREE to FOUR PAGE LONG "abbreviated" updates :^)

While I do miss Caz's updates (not that I don't like the other ones,
just that I miss Caz's style) I'm glad she has more time to "chat"
with us than she did before.

HEY - Phoebe keeps doing it in a day or two.

So - I end up having this DREAM last night about the Bradys and
planning my wedding and walking with Peter have having him say
"porkchops and applesauce."  I'm reading too much rats.

Let s/he who is wihtout typo throw the first falme :}

AMY - ask Judi to tell you about some of the stuff we UIUC rats have
done.

* We've gotten together at Coslow's for a drink a couple of times.

* We've had THREE video days in various homes

* We've MET in PERSON the FAMOUS Margaret Gibbs

* We've done the lunch thing at Red Herring

* We're going to see HEXED this weekend.

There might be something or other I'm forgetting.

All in all, we're a fun group.  Post something so I can grab your
email address and come join us.
