Yeah, that would work too.  We can discuss this further at the writers
meeting.  :-)  I didn't want to go for the lovers thing because it seems
that has been done before, eg Daphne.  I also would prefer that Dani
wasn't Stefano's daughter as that too has been done, eg Renee and Meagan.
But we never did learn about any of Stefano's siblings, did we?

Thanks Louise.  I liked yours from last week a lot too.  As a matter
of fact I think we'd have one helluva show if we took everyone's 
theories and incorporated them into one big script.  You're right, 
I didn't really address the Romulus-Remus thing.  How about this:
If Dani's mom is Romulus, then Stefano is Remus.  They could be the
twins!  I can't figure how any of this fits with the Alemains though.

>BTW, an article in SOW says Dani's going to be around for May sweeps,
>so SOMETHING will happen to keep her out of jail.

GREAT NEWS!!  Days would be very foolish to let her go.  I *really*
liked her scenes with John this week and I have never liked John that
much, not even with Marlena.  When she left through the window and 
said "Think of me" I was sitting there saying "I will!  I will!"  
And then her scenes with Vivian were absolutely priceless as well.
As the Vickster has said, Dani has stolen this show.  I can't imagine
a better leading lady and don't think I'd ever be bored with her on
the screen.  [I also loved her outfit.. nice skirt, nice legs, SCHWING!]

I hate the actress for Marley/Vicki.  She does such an awful job.  If they
didn't have different names, I would never know the difference.  The old
actress was far better.  All she had to do was appear and you knew exactly
who she was.  She did a far better job acting out how different the two were.


Jamie....
    I hate him, I hate him, I hate him.  Of course Vicki should have had
custody of the baby.  Jamie has never cared for Stephen.  He played dirty
politics to get the baby and never spends any time with him.  He only uses
the baby to be mean to Vicki.  Also, he made Vicki out to be bad because she
slept with Jake just once when her and Jamie didn't even have a relationship.
Then everyone stands around telling Vicki to change.  Well, it is Jamie that
needs to be changed.

Amanda....
    That ungrateful whench!!!  She reminds me of Jamie, just in the female 
form.  She turned her back on her friend Vicki just because her brother was
being a jerky baby.  Then she always runs around being mean to people under
the exuse of "for what he/she/they/you did to my family, I can never forgive
him/her/them/you." 

Paulina....
    I liked Paulina before, but the new actress is on my nerves.  I think the
way she is treating Jake or has been letting him treat her is stupid.  I 
think they should either replace her, or kill her, or send her to tahiti on
missionary work and never hear from her again.

Marley....
    What is this obsession of hers with getting involved with every guy that
Vicki has ever been interested in?  I hope she gets pregnant with Jamie's
baby...NO!!!  Change that....Jake's baby!!! and watch Jamie die when he
hears!!!  But don't tell Jamie until he tries to take custody of the baby
away from Marley.  And take Stephen away from Jamie.  I am surprized that
Vicki hasn't had another baby yet.

Lorna....
    I like her.  I was thinking...how about if she has nervous breakdown or
tries to kill herself over her terrible childhood.  At the same time, Felicia
and Luke find out she is theirs.  They are plagued with guilt!!!  I had 
thought a long time ago, that Lisa Grady was going to be F and L's daughter.

thought a long time ago, that Lisa Grady was going to be F and L's daughter.
Of course, she lives, and f and l spend much time trying to suck up and maybe
Mathew straightens up and takes a different road than the cory's before him.
I thought that maybe Jenna was going to be the daughter of the guy that made
that porno of her.

I thought this was great too! I've been reading all this cultural studies
and feminist scholarship about soap operas lately and one of the things they
often point out is that soaps are about the only place on tv where you
see female characters being valued for being women (and also where they are
valued by the audience for being women). I kept thinking about that during the
scene...

This would be great to see her win Enchantment control back without having
to win over any of the men. Just by being her : ERICA KANE     (don't you
guys love the way Opal is always telling Erica how she's no ordinary woman,
she's ERICA KANE?)

Since you aren't a "daily" viewer, you may have missed the VERY verbal 
"I'll KILL YOU!!!" threats from lots of characters:

Adam (In front of Brian and a Prison Guard)
Palmer (In front of his family)
Arlene (In front of Adam)
Trevor (In front of almost everyone)
Brian (In front of Prison Guard and Adam)
Craig (In front of Gloria)
Dixie (In front of Craig)

And, as you mentioned, Gloria (In front of her neighbor).

(I am sure there are a few I left out...)

These were sharp clues to the viewers that Will was soon to be history.
Gloria is certainly considered a suspect, but if past Soap Murders
hold true, the murderer is NEVER one of the people we see "threaten"
the victim.  

I think either JaNut or Dr. Steve peformed the deed.  JaNut is the 
best bet, because she is a "disposable" character with both opportunity
(maintenance man left hospital window unlocked) and motive (Trevor was
upset about Hayley's marraige to Will -- and she will do ANYTHING to 
please Trevor!)  Add these to the fact that she is not currently a 
main suspect, and you have the perfect murderess!

Since I haven't seen any posts on Friday's show of flashbacks, I
thought I'd start with some comments.  Although the show was 
pretty depressing, I loved the flashbacks.  I have to admit that
Robin was pretty cute when she was young.  She was a good actress
for that age too.  They seemed to concentrate more on Robert
though.  I kept waiting for more flashbacks on Anna.  I really
miss her.

Robin's acting the past couple of days has been good.  I've caught
myself crying along with her.  My husband actually shed some tears
too during the flashback of Robin returning to Anna after the
Asian quarter kipnapping.

I'm starting to agree with others in that I think Sean has more
information than he's telling.  maybe Tiff is in on it too.  She
doesn't seem too upset over losing her best friends too.

I bet Mac goes off to South America looking for more info.

The reason why women want to change men, and you see it more
often is that most men are ass*****!  And men don't have the
guts to try and change their women.

My impression at that time was that I didn't fully believe Greg when he
said that he had the vasectomy.  At the time, he was in one of those let's
test and possibly push away Paige modes.  I thought he could have easily
made up the idea of the vasectomy to see how Paige would react.
