	I loved this scene. It was such a Roman (ok, DrakeRoman) kind
of thing to do. And IzzyB reacted so sweetly, so surprised and happy.

	You know, I didn't get that feeling at all from the
interviewing scenes yesterday. I think it was implied that of course
they would do a complete background check on anyone they liked, I
think that they were first just trying to find someone they liked. I
thought the scenes were sweet and believable. I've never been either
an IzzyB fan or hater, but I do think she's been handling this dying
storyline pretty well.

	Touche.  This was truly idiotic.

	Now that Larry has been relegated to the back burner, the only
real thing I've been watching for is my lady Stella, and J&J. Why oh
why oh who can't they give us more of Jack? God, there's so much
potential with him becoming a father, with Jenn making more $ than he
does, etc...why not have him and Julie working together, with Jack
trying to get the Spectator back? Why not give us something we want to
watch, instead of something we watch to hate?

	A melted trophy he won last year for being the cop that blabs

	Stella is sooooooooo good... I've decided that since 1) John
will mosly likely being boring to watch for the next coming
('mourning') months, and 2) Larry will probably be turned into a
semi-good guy, which is unconscionable, and 3) I can't stand Jack
withdrawal anymore, and 4) Julie will never have another storyline
again, that I'm going to quit watching Dool, right after J&J have the
baby and RIGHT AFTER STELLA TORTURES THAT ARROGANT BLONDE WITCH TO DEATH!!!
