    attempt to use toddlers in what is supposed to be a serious scene.  They cannot focus; they are distracted by the lights, the boom, and parents off-stage; they don’t have lines because they cannot memorize them; they can’t cry; and what’s worse, they laugh or smile in situations that require them to be serious.  Ain’t ever gonna’ happen, so why do it?

    can’t say I see the resemblance to his dad, though, like I did between Chandler and Christian Massey.

    but remain safe and sound.  So glad to hear you and your mom are okay, but hope you are soon able to get out of the house, and that you have plenty of food and water and other necessities in the house.  You can’t even walk through 27" of snow to get anywhere.  Nothing to do but sit back and enjoy the beauty of the snow itself, before its walked on, driven on, or plowed if and when they get to you.  Good luck!!!

    because he knew he left the correct information and numbers for Chloe in case of an emergency, but Jennifer decided to mislead her and lie about where they would be.  Now, naturally, Daniel will look at it like a "what if" situation would have happened, even though Parker will probably be fine.  Ugh….this storyline bites!  Truth be told, I would loved to have seen what would have happened if Anne had gotten that bottle of citrus magnesium into Jen’s drinks undetected.  Would have been a much better watch, IMO!

    I agree, though, the girls looked great.  Daniel just always looks so unkempt to me, even when he’s out on a date.  I think SC needs a make-over.

    that’s the great thing about opinions — everybody has them.  You sound like an intelligent guy who, albeit, feels a certain way about expressing your views on a very controversial topic discussed quite a bit on this board and have now decided to join us, yet you do so with a very prominent chip on your shoulder.  I respect your opinion; I just wish you would not have decided to voice it in a way in which you have chosen to condemn some of our opinions, while at the same time so easily decide your own …. that we are a homophobic and hypocritical bunch for sure.  In the case of people who have very strong religious beliefs, this could possibly be true; otherwise, they are points of view to be taken with a grain of salt as to whether you agree or disagree.  I have very strong opinions on many matters, as you will undoubtedly come to realize the longer you stay with us.  However, they are mine to have as yours are your own to have.  When a conversation gets a little heated regarding differences of opinions, I try my darnedest to keep my responses civil …. sometimes it works for me …… sometimes not so much.  But this is a terrific group of people who have learned to ‘know when to hold em’ …. know when to fold em’ and not let any opinion get too out of hand so as to create more animosity than it’s worth.  I for one love when new members join this board.  So, welcome!  I look forward to some serious debates with you down the line.  LOL!

    because as far as I can determine, we don’t have any; but I read several other boards (only post to this one), and believe me when I tell you, Sonny and Will are idolized by the gay community.  How do I know they are gay, you may ask?  Because they are very open and say they are, and although the comments relating to the Will/Sonny storyline aren’t always agreed upon, their relationship as a gay couple certainly is.

    to an argument with Niki.  I’ve read articles that those two really do NOT get along.  Mariah may not say much, but I agree with her way more than Nike, she seems like a sweet person.  I think when she can get her critiques in, they are honest and to the point.  She doesn’t ramble on and on and on like Nike does.

    since they described it as her having much more spunk and independence.  Doesn’t look that way to me.  Except for her beauty, Nadia’s return as Chloe has been a complete fail for me.

    on our stations here in Maryland.  Hope you and yours will be safe and sound through what looks to be another 2012/13 "storm of the century" conditions.  God keep you all safe from harm.

    Today’s show was pretty good.  All about how Nick’s setting up Will and Lucas for blackmail.  He purchased a surveillance/recording device and planted it in Will’s backpack, and then listens through an earpiece to everything Will and Lucas are saying about Lucas taking the wrap for Will when it was really Will who shot E.J.  Creepy guy, that Nick;  one thing that was cool was they used Chandler Massey’s real life little brother, Christian Massey, to play young Will in the flashbacks, and since he looks very much like Chandler, it was very believable to watch him play the younger Will.  Even sounds like Will.

    Then Chloe, in cahoots with Anne, were going to try and ruin Dan’s and Jen’s night, but Jen tricked Chloe into thinking they were somewhere other than where they were.  Too bad, because Parker really does get sick and she can’t reach Daniel.  His phone got crushed when he hit some drunk who was trying to hit on Jennifer, so he borrows Brady’s phone, who Chloe eventually calls since she thinks she can’t reach Daniel.  Now, guess Jen’s going to have to pay the piper for this one;

    More of how Kristen is going to plan to get Brady to marry her, then dump him at the altar.  She does play a good drunk, even though she kept dumping her drinks out in potted plants.  It has to be said, though I despise Kristen, you just can’t help but love the way ED plays her this time around.

    Sonny and Gabi got into it and, since he knows what Gabi did in the Melanie fiasco, I think that’s going to be the next big secret that will come out.

    Acting wasn’t bad today, and stories are beginning to blend beautifully.  This week has been a good watch for me.

    Hope you survive the blizzard without trauma or damage.  Stay warm, and be sure and give us an update tomorrow.

    I can’t see it either.  What’s the big deal that it deserves so much attention.  She certainly didn’t care about taking her top off and straddling Austin when he was knocked out on booze.  Please, this is just not interesting at all.  Makes it appear to me that she wants to have sex with Cameron, but she’s afraid to lose her virginity to a relationship that just may not work out.  But, she would have been perfectly willing to do so with a very married Austin.  I’m calling "bull" on this one.

    are breaking down really, really hard this year.  Yes, Niki can really be cruel in her critiques; yet, at other times, she’s very sympathetic.  She’s hot and cold; one never knows what she’s going to say.  Mariah is a softie and it seems very hard for her to be harsh or extremely critical of anyone, which I think is a good thing.  These kids know when they didn’t do their best.  I don’t need to be listening to a female Simon Cowel every week.

    otherwise, she’s just as gorgeous as ever.  I did not, however, like Nicole’s look the past couple days…either the hair, clothes or make-up.  Same with Jennifer; just awful.  Seems like Hope is the only one who always looks fabulous on this show, IMO.  Of course, there’s Chloe, who couldn’t look bad if she tried.

    and that doesn’t make me homophobic, just uneasy watching it.  However, if one show doesn’t keep up with the times, it’s quickly blackballed or tagged as being homophobic or prejudice against gays or any other number of names the industry could or would come up with, mainly because soaps have an extremely large gay audience, especially males.  All soaps have added storylines involving gay or lesbian couples, and they all have allowed the viewers to watch them explicitly making out, whether in public or private.  Doesn’t mean the fans have to like it, nor are they being forced to watch; just means the networks insist on keeping up with the times.  No one is going to stop it, so you the choice of either having to fast-forward what you don’t like, move away from the TV, or close your eyes or look away, but whatever, in today’s culture, they’re not going to go backward.  I guess what bothers me more than anything is that straight actors are so willing to do it and then perform their roles, especially their love scenes so naturally that it makes me wonder if they might possibly be bi-sexual (or an actor can quit, like the actor on Y&R did), but I suppose the scenes themselves don’t bother me that much, because no particular scene lasts that long anyway before it cuts to another.  I do have to admit, I have looked away a few times when watching Will and Sonny or Sonny and Brian, simply becaue it made me uncomfortable to watch them; but the hetero scenes just don’t bother me that much.  Some of them I actually like.

    all this week, and even before this week.  The writers seem to be moving in the right direction with the stories, and that gives me hope that they will continue.  Days has also moved up in the ratings as well, so somebody’s doing something right.

    and very unfair to the contestants themselves.  They are nervous, true, but it’s not easy for everyone to harmonize; regardless of the song choice, and even if they don’t know the song (which they choose by the way) everyone cannot sing in the same key; and it serves no purpose, because groups are not a category to go to finals.  Consequently, some very talented performers are sent home because they cannot perform as a group.  It’s a useless guide for who’s talented and who’s not, IMO.  I felt so sorry for that last young man who was sent home, because he was really, really good in his individual audition.
