I also thought it was pretty whiney of Nat to INSIST on being in the new
house [and didn't it get repaired fast, although I don't think it looks
authentically Victorian any more at all].  I think we are supposed to be
touched at how everyone pitches in to help Trev and Nat ... he will
probably surprise her by taking her out for a drive on Chrismas Eve and
end up at the house (everyone now ... awwwwwww).

I mentioned to my BH that it looked like the judge was going to fall
asleep at the bench ... he didn't look too impressed by all of the 
"family values" testimony.

What are you talking about?  I don't remember seeing any scenes with
Taylor and Derek :-)

I don't even know if I can stand to watch Adam's reaction to all this.
He will go into his psycho mode like he did when he found out Jr was
in the hospital without him knowing.  I find him really insufferably 
obnoxious when he acts like that.

>3) How was Bobby's ski trip?

Ruth and Joy just got a note from Bobby last week ... "Dear Mom and Dad,
The skiing is great.  Think I'll stay a few weeks more.  Bobby."

Dancing beer cans and those keychains that make death-ray and tommy gun 
sounds.

For a "serious" answer to that question ... I live in a town that I think
must be like PV.  It is a rural town of 40,000.  We have a university 
[OSU ... go Beavers!], a fairly large hospital, and a major electronics
company [part of Hewlett-Packard, about 3,000 employees here].  Most of us
only commute about 10-15 minutes to work, so you could easily pop over to
visit a friend.  This is extra easy in PV, since no one seems to care how
many (if any) hours you put in at work!

You do not HIRE your mother-in-law, she comes with the deal :-)

Enterprise Transporting and Shuttlecraft.
