My favorite Idea That I'll Never Get Around to Writing, Because, Let's
Face It, I Stand About As Much Chance of Having Them Actually Read It
As I Do of Sprouting a Tree Out of My Head (that's ITINGAWBLFIISAAMC-
HTARIAIDSTOMH) is having two Sams from different points in the future
leap into two different people in the same time in the past.  There
would be two Als, both of which both Sams could see, causing general
wackiness.  Basically, it would work out where Sam (farther future)
needs to stop Sam (nearer future) from correcting history the wrong way.
He'd be both the antagonist and the protagonist.
	And they'd save on extras...

This weekend on the hour long edition of Entertainment Tonight (Check
your local listings! [I always wanted to say that!]), ET will be doing
a story specifically on the net mailing list (The Flamingo Digest)
devoted to the show "Parker Lewis Can't Lose". 

The angle on the story is how fan clubs have been and will be evolving
through the use of computers and computer networks with specific
attention to our lil' ol' mailing list. Members of the Digest were
interviewed and then flown out to visit the set of "Parker Lewis"
while the ET cameras rolled.

It was a great experience for those of us involved and gets the net
and hopefully ALL the mailing lists and newsgroups devoted to ANY show,
some good exposure.

And needless to say, it's a very nice feeling to be a fan of a show
that readily ackowledges and treats their fans the way the
producers and folks at "Parker Lewis" have always treated everyone on
our mailing list.

And no :-(, I did not get to be interviewed by Mary Hart!

	The opera is Verdi's "Nabucco", the aria (solo/soliloquy) is 
called "Va, pensiero". If you get the entire opera, the program will 
tell you which track it is. If you just get some generic "Verdi: Opera
Highlights" album, you better make sure that that opera with the
particular aria is one of the tracks.

NEXP's currently in reruns, so that's why there's so little about it here.

I did catch Cynthia Geary (Shelly) on CBS' This Morning program.  [For
those who were discussing her attractiveness a while back, she looked
pretty good to me (she's not a Janine Turner but still not bad).  I think
her dress on NEXP detracts a bit--I especially hate that (fake) fur coat
Shelly often wears.]  Anyways, the interviewer brought up an interesting
point.  He compared Shelly to Shakespeare's fool.  That is, what she says
may sound ditzy but often has deeper meaning.  That is my sentiments ex-
actly.  Anyone else?

About ten years ago there was a lawsuit brought by Brook against the guy who
took the pictures.  Apparently the picture were taken when Brook was going to 
audition for Pretty Baby and her mother hired a photographer to take some
nude pictures of her.  Apparently they were very soft porn, some were shown on 
TV, with all of the necessary parts covered by other body parts or set props.
If I remember correctly, Brook lost the lawsuit mainly because she did not 
include her mother in it.  Apparently this implied that she still accepted that
her mother legitimately represented her interests and therefore it was a valid 
contract.  If anyone else remembers any more about the case I would be
interested to see how accurate my recolections were.  Also it is possible that 
some of the photos are more shocking, the only ones I ever saw was what was 
broadcast on the Network News.

OK. This thread now has nothing to do w/ r.a.tv, but since it's
been recurring all week, I can be silent no longer. If you must flame me,
do what you must.

My view on seat belt wearing: People who don't wear seat belts/shoulder
restraints are stupid. It's as simple as that. There is NO good evidence that
supports the non-wearing of restraints (e.g., what if I can't undo
it after an accident?), and there is LOADS of evidence that it's the thing to
do (this week's tragedy among them). I've been wearing them for over 20 years.
My wife and I (and our yet-to-be-born first child) were in a serious accident
10 years ago. We virtually walked away from what was a potentially fatal
situation; among my worst injuries were the bruises from the restraints.

I'm very glad the original poster has come around and will be buckling up.
For the rest of you non-bucklers, I see it as a case of natural selection.
If you're too stupid to buckle up, then you're less likely to reproduce.

[I suggest that those who simply want to flame me, use email. If you have
something subtantive to contribute, then I guess you can post. Although
I posted this follow-up, I'd rather not be the cause of a lot of wasted
bandwidth. Maybe I can't have it both ways.]

Please buckle up.

   At least you saw that many....those of us in Maine got to see High School
or Celtics Basketball instead of the pilot, and High School and College 
basketball during the other weeks it was advertised to be on.  So those
of us in Maine didn't see it at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please note....the email is in New Hampshire....I had just happened to be 
home on the weekend of the Scorch pilot....letters from home since then
have asked me when Scorch was suppose to be on since Basketball was on Fridays
from 7:30pm onwards on CBS in Maine (channel 5 Bangor and WGME 13 Portland)
all through March.

	She wasn't mentally *absent*, she was mentally unstable. I think
that might be the difference. Tibby was still in a "child-like" mind set.
That 'natural alpha state'. :-) It's a good hand-wave, though, even if 
not the real reason. :)

In this week's TV Guide (with S.O.S.: Save our Shows on the cover) there is
a bit in the black & white News section about new shows, and Red Dwarf is
mentioned. I thought it was about next season's shows, not filler for this
