Oh dear.   It has been brought to my attention that I am contributing to the destruction of these forums. Without even realizing it, I am inflicting unbearable suffering onto certain members when referring to my favorite soap by its original (and grammatically-correct) name, which it only used for a mere 40+ years: THE Guiding Light.   Gentle readers apparently cannot withstand being cruelly confronted by the article THE. Indeed, it's being said that so many people have fled the boards over this and similar egregious crimes, only eight posters remain.   Who knew?   I'd like to make up for the anguish I have heaped upon those whose sensibilities have been wounded by the correct use of an article. I'll be happy to donate to a charity chosen by the injured parties. Perhaps Soap Fans for the Promotion of Illiteracy (an offshoot of Melania's Be Best campaign).   As well, I am being criticized for continuing to post here even though I have (allegedly) not watched soaps "since the 1970s." In my defense, I have never once made such a claim. I freely admit that the last time I enjoyed certain soaps was in the '70s, before the sci-fi craze took over, but I continued to watch ATWT and TGL (dear God in heaven, I cannot control myself!) until the bitter end. I suppose I should not be too hard on my critics for getting confused, however.   Reading-comprehension is not for everyone.   To those whom I offended, my deepest apologies.😪 

Thiem would be #2 behind Novak.  

I don’t know if anybody still follows Cheshire, but Dawn has been arrested for racially harassing two people and possession of cocaine! Couldn’t happen to a nastier person!    Here is Ampika talking about how she quit bc of Dawn’s racist attacks:  Article on the arrest: https://www.ok.co.uk/celebrity-news/dawn-ward-court-charged-breaking-22909409

I believe she has auditioned before - might be a few years ago, but that name has been circulating for a few seasons now. 

She sounds interesting and she looks like she won't take any BS.  Rinna and Kyle..take note.
