Well, I will add here two things. 1) Carol Jean "The Other CJ" -
you must be a bit happier now, since Steven recommended a "specialist"
to perform Natalie's surgery. Maybe I heard wrong but I swear Steven
at first said it was a woman, then in the end, someone else said it
was a man! Did anyone else hear this discrepancy? and 2) Dave, you
must be more pleased, I don't think it was (IMHO) predictable what
Natalie's ailment was (fragments in her eyes); I never even thought
of that! I couldn't actually imagine what the hell it was he was
going to tell Trevor!

They actually did and are doing this. Only just not in the exact fashion

I saw John DeLancie at a Star Trek Convention this past weekend and he
was asked about his experiences on Days.  He said that he had been
originally slated to only do a few episodes and that his character
wouldn't be written in any more.  However, he decided to take the
character and expand it.  As an example, he decided to make him act
outrageously in polite or subdued situations.  He basically said that
what Days desperately needed at the time was a bit of humor and
comedy; and because of fan reaction he was kept on the show.  Someone
near me commented on how it was still desperately needed and that he
was missed.  He also stated that he is a free spirit and liked to only
do roles for a short period of time and didn't like the idea of
working at the same job for more than 3-6 months at the most.  

He is funny in person, but in a much more subdued way than his Eugene
or "Q" character (Star Trek-Next Generation).  He is a serious student
of history and signed autographs for everyone, as well.  He seemed a
bit uncomfortable on stage and in person, but I guess who wouldn't be
with a bunch of people who are dressed up in strange alien costumes.
That's about all I can remember on this cold, rainy Monday morning.

I opened todays "Atlanta Journal" news paper and saw the following 
article about the Scrabble tournament.

Word Play.
A red-letter day in Atlanta: Scrabble aficionados gather for 
Olympics of the verbose

   How did Mark Przybyszewski feel when Ted Blevins came up with 
REVEHENT, and emptied out his tile rack?
   "I thought, "There's a  word I've never seen vefore,'" says the 
27 year-old student from the University of Buffalo in New York. But 
in Scrabble, challenging a strange word is risky: If the word turns out   
be aceptable, the challenger loses his turn, and sometimes the game.

   Instead, Mr. Przybyszewski (his friends call him "Eye-chart") 
immediately countered with TEAPOY, crossing the Double Word Score box
and landing his valuable Y tile in the Triple Letter Score box. "For
that Y alone he picked up 36 points," says Mr. Blevins, 42, of Cecilia,
Ky., obviously impressed. "Fifty-three points for TEAPOY -- incredible."


That's all I have time to type in for now.  I'll scan the article for more 
stuff about Mark and try to post it tomorrow.

It has been really good.  I read something in the newspaper yesterday
about how SB was cancelled in Boston and Philadelphia.  Paul Raush
from SB suggests writing to the local affilites telling them how 
upset and angry you are about them cancelling SB.  It also mentioned
that in the last few weeks with the business with Frank the ratings
went UP (Yes I said UP!!!!) by .4, it's not alot but it is something
and they have noticed.  Paul Raush said that they (SB execs I guess)
have sent tapes of SB to all the affilites to showcase how good SB
has been lately and how good it is going to be. (The article didn't
go into detail about what the tapes contained).  It was a small
article (1 paragraph) but at least something positive for a change.
Let's hope that helps.

You know there is a much bigger issue that Lizardo has yet to deal with that
there is NO WAY Days viewers will forgive or forget let alone what female
Days viewers are willing to forgive and forget.  Lizardo had Steve killed.
The single baddest deed to be done in Salem since Stefano.  Don't get me
wrong.  I like the Lizman, but no one bought that Nick crap.  We all know
Lizardo was behind it.  No, self-respecting S&K fan will forgive him for
that unless he does a lot of soul-searching.  Again, if CC is really pushing
this triangle, I think she needs to be really careful.  If there is any
continuity at all, any softening of Abdulla towards Lizard and Boinko
should blow his top.  Ooops, I forgot myself and mentioned the C-word
there.
 
Ann, I agree that Lizard would be good ala Victor, but I just don't think
the writers have it in them and TPTB are assinine.  I mean really!  Do
they honestly think we will forget Lizardo's nefarious deeds??  He nailed
a Horton and a Johnson.  There's no way.
 
Pretty tricky there, Ann.  Yet another non-TAN post that actually discusses
the show.  Can you believe it??

I disagree.  FFing thru the "bad stuff" is a copout.  I also was left
speechless.  There are those of us where this story line strikes home in a
big way.  This brought up stuff that had been buried for 20 years.

As for kids watching without parental consent, we can only hope that the
parents had the good sense to deal with it.  We cannot spare our kids all
the bad stuff, as much as we try.

So far, I think they have done an excellent job.  For about a year, I had a

   OK - I got all worked up over nothing.  Leila Thomas suggested I call the 
 NBC station just to make sure.  I did and great news!!!  They have just moved
 SB to a new time slot!!!  It will still be on the air in Minneapolis!  On the
 same note, the person answering the phone said they have had several
 calls from SB fans asking what was going on?!?  She said the station was 
 probably going to start advertising the move of SB just so people would stop
 calling!  Just goes to show how many fans SB still has!

            Stephen Nichols return to daytime after a two year 
            absence to joing SB!!  Industry experts see his 
            casting as a calculated attempt to draw new viewers.
            His new role will be Schuyler Gates, B.J's (Sydney
            Penny) therapist.  He will be an old friend of Warren's
            (Jack Wager) from the Far East, and he is not only
            a brilliant therapist, but very spiritual.  The role
            is recurring and Nichols first airdate is September 2!

            Matt told a friend of mine that he's afraid the writers
            have no idea what to do with Jack and Jen anymore.

            New York City when the Deveraux's have a happy reunion
            in the Big Apple the week of August 24th.  [Matt said

Hi, Folks!  I guess it's my turn to step forward.  I have posted a few times
in the last 5 years, but I still consider myself a lurker.  I feel somewhat
guilty about having all this fun reading posts without contributing.

My name is Fred Knod.  I am 47 years old, having been born May 23, 1945.  I
am 6' 1" tall, weigh about 180#, have blue eyes and a full head of dark brown
hair, and sport a full beard (no goatee for this dude).

I have lived in Arkansas all of my life, but I have resided briefly in Tulsa,
Oklahoma City, and Dallas.  I am also a Vietnam veteran.  I have been divorced
for 13 years and have an 18 year old son, Evan, who lived with me until
recently.  I now live alone and I absolutely love it!  I have a BSIE from the
University of Arkansas (class of '75).  I have been working for Southwestern
Bell in Little Rock since graduation.  I am a System Administrator on 2 Unix
minicomputers.

I have 4 cats, having lost one to Feline Leukemia last year.  They are Loki
(a Siamese lookalike male), Tazmania (a tricolor female with a dividing line
down the middle of her face and belly), TJ (Tazzie Junior, a smaller version
of her mother), and Ellie Mae (from the mountains).  I also have a house full
of plants.

My hobbies include golf, tennis, bowling, pool (I don't hustle, but I'm
very good), music, running, and chess.  I play the banjo, classical guitar,
mandolin, trombone, alto horn, and bamboo flute.  In case you can't tell,
I get bored easily.

I started watching soaps with my mother during summer vacations when I was
young.  Now I only watch AMC, which I discovered in 1974.  I go home for
lunch every day and watch.  My favorite character of all time was Tad's
sister Jenny.  I saw her in an episode of Tales From The Crypt and she was
HHHOTTTTTT!!!!  What a woman!  My current favorites are Dixie (absolutely
beautiful) and Gloria (pure sex!).  I also like Trevor, Halo, Jeremy, and
David Canary (not Adam).  And, of course, Erica.  I DON'T like Dimwit,
Galen, or Braindead.

I am very bored with the current storylines.  Something interesting needs
to get started soon.
