Hi Peoples,

     I've been a lurker for quite a while now, over a year in fact.  
I don't get to watch much anymore because the people I work for don't 
understand that their workers need their daily fix.  If it keeps up I 
might be sent to the Ward permanently instead of just visiting <grin>

     Anyway, I enjoy the updates and all the witty banter, so keep up 
the good work and I'll see ya around.

I got this off of GEnie last night and thought people would be
interested in seeing it.  I'll type it up (and condense it a 
wee bit).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Soap Star Spectacular:

About 18 of the DAYS stars showed up - no Robert Mailhouse or 
Michael Easton. 

The girl (who went) talked to Roberta and Shannon.  Shannon said
she "QUIT".  She said she told TPTB to either give her & Michael
a storyline or let her go.  She said that she wasn't trying to 
sound stuck up or anything but that she & Michael did get the most
letters and were the most popular couple now.  [ed note.  SAY WHAT??
Tolerable maybe,  definitely NOT the most popular couple.]  And she 
was tired of not working but two days a week as she has other things
she could be doing so either give her a storyline or let go so she
can do other things - they let her go.  She sounds ok with it but
Michael was upset about it.  I seems also that Michael Easton 
tested for a pilot and although it wasn't sold TPTB were upset with
him for doing that as they have a contract with him and he can only
do what they allow him to do.  So maybe this was a way of punishing
him.  [ed note.  Regarding Shannon,  I think this is what they
call "OOPS".]

I understand that Madonna is thinking of signing the band that Keneau
Reeves and Robert Mailhouse have to a contract.  So maybe Rob not all
that interested one way or the other.  I heard that he can be 
difficult.  Lois the president of Roberta's fan club wanted to take a
picture of him & Roberta at the Soap Opera Awards and he said No, he was
going to find the bar!  Who really ever knows what happens.

THey asked the guy that plays Roger about him and Marlena having an
affair.  He looked suprised that she knew that but wouldn't confirm
or deny it.  Also that Roman is supposed to have an affair with a new
police woman they are going to bring on.

Matt didn't have his hair cut yet and looked pretty grungy (I find that
hard to believe,  the looking grungy bit, but I'm just reporting what
was written).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The lady that typed this up also got a phone call from Sherri Anderson
(actually a phone message on her answering machine).  She said she was
as sick as everyone else about Robert & Roberta but she didn't know
why everybody didn't just ask why it happened instead of attacking her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well, that's everything.  I've got to start that work thing now.

Later,

Limer

I've been away for a while, but I've been reading everyone's articles
and have at least been able to watch SB, but I've moved, gotten a new
job, and am using a very expensive method of tying into the net, so I've
decided not to post very much.  But I just needed to unlurk for a bit to
say how much these shows of the past week or so have been so
tremendously fantastic!

When Cruz realized that Rachel Ann was BJ the other day and he was
sitting at her computer terminal reading those lines, I was having
trouble holding back my tears.  He felt so badly about what happened to
her, especially knowing that he was the one who gave her the doll.  And
all the scenes with BJ and Frank and Cruz and Frank were great.
Monday's show, when Jodie finds out, looks to be another great show.  I
find myself rushing home to watch my tape of this show every day.  I
could do without this Rafe/Lisa/Lilly silliness, and I tend to ff
through most of the Rafe-Lisa scenes since they all seem to be the same.

What I'd like to see is Warren and Katrina walk in on Ted and angela,
without giving them any warning. :-)

I can't wait to see what happens when Reese and Jodie find out about
Frank.  And poor Sawyer, who was just telling BJ he knows her better
than anyone else in the world.  He'll be devastated, too.

[An aside:  Why does everyone call Abby Aurora, now that we know she is
Abby?  Even her late, unlamented grandmama called her Aurora.]

With storylines like this, how can SB be one of the worst-rated shows?

You've put some doubt in my mind now Mike! Perhaps she was by herself, or 
Brooke was there for a short while only, then left, before the "good looking
bloke" made his move so to speak. He seemed like such a decent guy, especially
after Ridge had been such a louse.

The letter was DEFINITELY from Ridge to Caroline. He gave the letter to Katie
(Brooke's never to be seen again youngest sister) to give to Caroline.

For the first time in ages, I am actually caught up with AMC and
can provide some not out of date comments.  I had a few thoughts
on the last few days of shows.  Some of them have already been
mentioned by other posters.


1.  What time is it really?  Erica and Charlie were eating lunch
    while Trevor was just getting off of work and the board
    of directors at the hospital were having a late meeting
    in order to get ready for the party.  A late lunch is 1, 
    maybe 2 but not 4 or 5 in the afternoon!

2.  Ruth was talking to Gloria after the board of directors
    meeting and made a comment about Enid Nelson.  She said
    Enid was not going to ever do that to her in a loud and
    clear voice before Enid even left the room.

3.  Dimitri's facial hair.  I don't find this man attractive
    with or without facial hair.  The goatie was just too
    strange for my taste.

4.  Angelique's hair.  I still don't like it.  The new color 
    is a bit strange.

5.  Dixie and Brian.  Why do these relationships have to 
    start so fast?  I would like to see a couple banter for
    a lot longer first.  Some of the best romances were those
    like Cecily and Nico, where they didn't really fall in
    love right away.  Galen and Steven aren't appealing IMHO
    because they just jumped into the sack without any
    real lust or anything.  Let's see more friendships and
    other story lines on this show.

6.  Buying the houses.  I just love the way they buy the
    house in one day before thinking about a house much
    before.  They should at least have the characters mention
    wanting to own something a little bit more ahead of time.
    Also, an escrow close takes 60 days.  I wish this show
    were a little more realistic in this area.
    I do like it when the characters are working on something
    like moving in and hanging pictures.

7.  I don't know but this show has lost a lot of interest
    for me over the last year.  It seems to have tried
    to pack in new wild stories instead of character 
    development.

8.  Edmund and Brooke.  I am beginning to find this couple
    interesting.  They are doing a good job at developing
    this relationship.

9.  Charlie/Choppers.  Not attractive.

Just a few comments.  As you can tell, I'm a little down
on AMC these days.

Hey guys, I just read on Prodigy that Aurora's hair is really

blonde!  Can you believe it, her hair is absolutely gorgeous.

A few years ago when Blake first came on the show (the blond one), nobody
knew she was really Chrissie Thorpe.  Somehow, someone found a picture she
had of two little boys and a little girl, and the little girls face was
penciled out.  It came out that the two little boys were Phillip and Rick,
and the little girl was Blake (Chrissie).  I think they found that out
because there was a similar picture in one of the Bauer photo albums.  So,
that would make Blake closer to Phillip and Rick age, which is screwy also,
but that's another story.

Hope that helps.

Take heart I too have suffered through wedding preparations - it was 6 years
ago but I still have nightmares about that last week leading up to the big day.
Yes it is true that you have to fight very determindly to get the wedding that
YOU want.However I can tell you that it is all worth it. The actual wedding day
,for us anyway, was incredible and we had a wonderful time.So just focus on
having a great time on the day - and if you have to- leave town until the night
before - it worked a treat for my sister.

I think that the key word in your statement is *practices*.  The people of
Llanview are not asking Andrew if he is engaging in homosexual acts; they are
asking if he defines himelf as homosexual.  When he was asked about making
advances to Billy (an action) he denied the charges.  I agree that he should
not have to define or defend his sexual identity to anyone.  Many religions
who are vocal against homosexuality don't condemn members who identify
themselvs as gay, as long as they are celibate.  Could you clarify whether you
meant that a gay person should not be "a teacher of morality" or that a
"teacher of morality" should not be a practicing homosexual?
