Ms. Quartermaine

Wow, Carrie. I'm so sorry to hear that news. So scary and sad. On a lighter note (I hope it's appropriate that I use the same post for this), I am helping my brother with his geometry homework, and he has to solve for the segment TQ. It says TQ = 7x - 9. Here's a bit of our conversation: Staci: TQ equals... Oh! TQ! Those are Tracy Quartermaine's initials! Brother: Oh my gosh...You are sooo weird.

Go for it, MinervaFan. Would love to see what you come up with. And thanks for the Katrina/One Life Many Voices information. I really do love that Stand For Me song that you used for a video, and I'm sure the other songs are good too. hooked, so sad about your TQ collection. Let's see if this gets you started. Note: I'm in the process of re-editing some June and July 2007 clips (6/12, 6/13, 6/29, 7/6). I'm trying to improve the quality and get rid of the non-Tracy parts that found their way into the scenes (i.e. Jason/Ric, Lulu/Logan, Cooper/Maxie, etc). They'll be up soon, I hope.

The Women of Port Charles Who is your favorite female character on GH? What are her strengths? What are her weaknesses? Has she grown since coming to Port Charles? Where would you like her storyline to go? Do you have a memorable moment that hooked you on the character? So far, smirks, Doughman, zh95 (Truke), and ricishot have all chosen Tracy. Anyone want to answer the questions (here and there, if you have an SOC account)?

Breakroom? http://pub13.bravenet.com/chat/show.php/1049349012

Bumping... POSSIBLE SPOILER: . This sort of contradicts SOD though, doesn't it? (the second part, I mean) VIDEO (Frozenlove of GHVT requested that I use the song): http://www.sendspace.com/file/yvicxh BANNER A FANTASY STORY LINE that we talked about in the breakroom last night: This Sweeps, Tracy ends up hurt in the mob war (you know, instead of Luke's kids getting hurt for the 12,359th time). Tracy dies temporarily. Ghost!Tracy and Ghost!Alan get to hang out for a bit. I know it's been done before with the whole deceased person seeing their body and people gathering around them and all that, but Luke could admit a whole bunch to Tracy, confessions of deep love, encouraging her to fight (TG's mandatory Emmy reel) as Ghost!Tracy and Ghost!Alan look on. Eventually, Ghost!Alan convinces his sister to go back to the corporal world. She comes back to life, and Luke gets to say a whole bunch more to his wife, that kind of thing. Would be good for the Q's all around. Ned could return for a little; Dillon as well. Too bad it wouldn't happen. Now, anyone want to fic it?

BSG, love the playlists! hooked, wonderful news about your computer! YEAH! And you crack me up: "There had to be at least one good reason I married my husband." Haha. And here's hoping it doesn't rain for you! Good luck with the party. Off to lunch with the family...

tracyluver, not sure if you're out there, but... Hope your first year of college is treating you well so far! Stop in if you have a chance! We miss ya!

hooked, that one "spoiler" was from an anonymous person at SoapDish. Never was confirmed. Commented on your story at LJ. LOVED IT!

Luke: [singing] You put your right arm in...You put your… Tracy: [thinking] I cannot believe I'm doing this. Luke: Spunky, what are you doing? That's your left arm. Colette, I'm so happy to hear that about your grandfather. bsg, so, does that mean their support line is just open M-F as well? hooked, hope you're doing all right. We can totally help you rebuild your Tracy collection. remos, I hope you have good time this week. Unfortunately, I haven't read ANYTHING about Tracy in spoilers or possible spoilers. Gah. I'm thinking Tracy managed to escape from Shady Brook and is now offscreen in Europe because that's where GH tends to send her when Luke is away...Oh, wait. No. Tracy did escape from Shady Brook, but she and Luke are in DISNEY WORLD!!!

Birthday episode has been added to Luke/Tracy Clip Requests 2006 on SaveFile under 4-6-06 ~ Shazzer: Happy "39th" Birthday, Tracy! remos, the red/black I realized. The rest I didn't. I had to look up "decolletage" I hope you know! Haha. And who says Tracy can't be educational? Do you know much my vocab. has grown from watching Tracy and listening to you guys? I've uploaded some scans to this thread at JE Online; I know I posted 2 of them here before, but some of the other ones might be new. Also, on the old computer today and came across some GH/Tracy files. We've seen most of it, but I found this pic of Jane and Lynn Herring. This has been posted here before, maybe, but in case our newer posters haven't seen it: And the Emmy goes to...Jane Elliot. She REALLY needs another, and hopefully, this time, she has better hair and a better dress. Tracy on Oprah. Finally, a little banner I made... Oh, hey, have we ever figured out a date for that photo on the right? nex and I guessed 2003 'cause the hair (length and highlighting) matches her hair from that time period - though, we don't get to see JE's real life wavy hair on GH ). But, then, it kinda matches her GL hair (Click here; top left too. It's funny. We're talking a 20 year (about) difference in time, and we just can't tell!!! Here is another photo from that time period for the few of us who might have not seen it. EDIT 1: While we're guessing, what did we decide on this? CLICK ME. Pre-Change of Habit? Post-CoH but pre-GH? EDIT 2: And POOR TRACY. (These came from a banner I made once upon a time about Tracy being "beat up on" on GH...) Anyway, this is what I get for going on the old computer...I find all this stuff. We're actually going to completely reformat it (and therefore lose everything) soon...So I started salvaging things this afternoon. EDIT 3: Meant 20 year difference, not 10.

Hi, I've been around, kind of. My internet hasn't been down once today, I don't think, though it was down last night with the power outage. My Dad woke up screaming, "WHY DIDN'T THE KIDS TELL ME THE POWER WAS OUT! THE BASEMENT IS GONNA FLOOD NOW!!!" (something about the sun pump and the back up generator only being good for 6 hours...) No flood though. Power was restored a little before the 6 hour mark. Whew. smirks, if you're reading, we totally understand you being done with GH (I'm done with GH too...Well, I watch for Tracy and Tracy alone at this point). But, please, if you have a minute or so, stop in. We miss you! You should make a Tracy video!!! (I got plenty of clips on SaveFile, and if they're not there, just ask. We'd help you out). Truke, I posted in that SOC thread. Can't comment on the Harry Potter thing, 'cause I have never read one of the books or seen the movies. hooked, I think you're right about Sam. I was just wondering about the "long time citizen." I was thinking someone older than her...It might be Mike (Sonny's dad). Would I care if ? No...But, I'll just FF, and life will be good. Birthday Reminder: tracyluv's is the 26th of this month.

So, going to bed before 11 did not happen last night, seeing as we lost power and spent forever trying to find a little lighter thing for a candle (we had no idea where a flashlight could be). Had no luck with that but eventually found matches on the top of my Dad's dresser (using our cell phones as light). But seriously, WTF? Put the matches in the kitchen drawers. We're not 5 anymore. Anyway, got to bed a little after 12, which wasn't too bad. Power didn't come back on 'til after 4. TracyLuv, that CANNOT be your last story ever! Nooooooooo! It was wonderful with all the romance and humor. The Spiderman line was hilarious. Cute ending too! Dreamt about LuNacy last night. I remember being disappointed 'cause it didn't record with volume, but the LuNacy scenes involved a little vow renewal thing and a kiss. (So much better than what happened in April 2006 on the show). hooked, that first spoiler came from Soaps In Depth, so I'm assuming it's true. On the topic of spoilers: Questions/Comments: Original post is at the top of this page.

Hope everyone's doing okay with all the storms. So, this took longer than expected, but I have NEW FIC! CLICK ME TO READ ESCAPE PLAN Special thanks to hooked for all her help!

OFF TOPIC: We're LIVE from Ms. Q's dining room with a weather update. It got REALLY dark again outside about 20 minutes ago, and it's storming again. My sister is trying to tell me the sky is green. I'm going to say it's blue green. Makes me feel better. It doesn't seem as bad as before, 'cause there are no sirens and we're not in the basement, but I'm not a fan of all this lightning... Found this at SoapDish earlier: I could've totally been Poster 1 (I wasn't, but I could've been, LOL). Lady A, why are you watching that sad stuff? Actually, though, I rewatched Tracy's 1993 goodbyes on YouTube today. Soooo sad. I wonder if she will ever post the Tracy/Monica bit. I think that scene alone demonstrated JE's best acting among all the good-byes. Colette, thanks for the update on your grandfather. Wonderful news about there not being brain damage. Hope he wakes up soon. KyE, what kind of clips? On YouTube? TracyLuv, your post CRACKED me up. I'm glad I was able to entertain despite the situation I was in.

OFF TOPIC Ok. It's going to storm AGAIN. Is is very, very dark in our kitchen (back of the house) and still sunny in the front room (front of the house). And-- *out of breath* Post had been interrupted by my dad who was screaming, "GET INTO THE BASEMENT! GO! NOW!" *in the basement* TV is buzzing obnoxiously. Tornado warning for our area: Take cover now. If no basement is available, move to an interior room on the lowest floor. Mobile home and vehicles should be abandoned for more substantial shelter. Avoid windows. Wow. Kind of like a movie. At least I'm not alone this time, right? Will inform you whenever we get an update or whenever I'm allowed to plug my computer back in... EDIT: And here come the sirens...And our neighbor's patio glass table just shattered. Just when I started to catch my breath. Someone come on and give me some good Tracy news. EDIT: Okay. I think we're in the clear. Thanks for bearing with me, guys! BTW, to those who were in the BR: Got a response from YouTube. She doesn't keep her old clips, but said that Shazzer from GHVT/Know From Dreams would have the scenes.

*waves to sparkly and hooked* MinervaFan, I totally understand. Hopefully, Tracy!TV will pick up in the fall. It has to. About OLTL...Haven't been watching, but my mom was telling me that it apparently has been real good lately. I fear if I got into OLTL, I'd become obsessed with Dorian (and her hair, haha) though, and I'm obsessed enough with Tracy. hooked, yeah! Write something (if you can). I'm going to try and finish that one story (not Oh, Baby, for those wondering) this afternoon. EDIT: If SoapDish is to be believed, the week of August 27th, My comment: I think I believe it. Just 'cause it's so dumb, and GH would totally repeat themselves like that.

knh, would you mind reposting? I was at the "computer lab" at school in Mexico when this was posted and didn't want to open it up then. Would love to see it though!

This post is for you, hooked. BTW, you've got mail. OT, but what kind of parent refuses to sign the Rules Form, insisting that her daughter should NOT be required to speak Spanish? Um, hello, it's a SPANISH class. Oy. Here is breakroom link: http://pub13.bravenet.com/chat/show.php/1049349012

Just 2 posts since very, very early this morning? What is happening to the TQ thread?! Hope everyone's having a good day. I think I need a nap. Anyone think they'll be around later?

OT: Oh, wow. To those who were in the breakroom: Remember when I said I would the hard way about not getting to be early? I'm definitely learning the hard way. When I do this everyday come September, I'm really going to have to get some kind of schedule and stick to it. So, anonymous person on SoapDish said 3 characters who've had minimal screentime were about to get a boost. A poster and I were hoping for Monica/Alan/Tracy, but if the insider is really an insider, the characters are Alexis/Nikolas/Emily. Yay for Alexis screentime, but GAH to the rest. Here's hoping for a Tracy!Wednesday. Ok, that just does not sound as cool as Tracy!Tuesday or Tracy!Thursday.

Colette, I'm so sorry to hear about your grandfather. You all will be in my thoughts. *waves to remos and hooked* Breakroom for a few? http://pub13.bravenet.com/chat/show.php/1049349012

Woah. I am more tired than I thought. I lied down on the couch and 20 minutes later, I woke up in drool. Eww. LOL. Hey, knh, sorry about your day. Your vacation is coming up soon, isn't it? *sends hugs* remos, was the "I hope" one the LuNacy sex one? There's been threads about LuNacy sex in the past (I remember 'cause we always directed Lainey towards them, LOL), and those threads have been fine. Colette, strange dream. I think the best dream someone had (related to Tracy, anyway) was tracyluver...I think it was her. Anyway, she dreamt we were all going to be on plane together on the way to meet Jane Elliot. Sounds fun, doesn't it? Of course, in RL, if you put all of us in a room with JE, she'd probably run! LOL. Okay, well, maybe I'm being a bit dramatic, but I think if I started talking about her oomphy hair, that would scare her a bit. Anyone know what hooked is up to today? It's not like her to be so quiet.

Today went well, everyone. I'm tired (and I wasn't even the one doing the teaching, LOL), but other than that, it's all good. Soap Opera Digest Fall Previews As usual, the Q's fall LOW on the list, but HEY, they got a mention! The Quartermaines: Commentary: Luke/Tracy/Scott: Commentary:

*waves to MinervaFan* OT: Woot! I got official confirmation on observing at the school! But who's idea is it to start at 7:15? I love how my "set bed time" was 10, and I didn't get to sleep 'til close to 2. I just laid there and laid there. Cute tidbit from that article, hooked! Also, if I didn't thank you for last night, I apologize. Thank you so much for your help. My brother and I both appreciated it. Colette, forgot to mention this, but will definitely add your birthday to the list. POSSIBLE SPOILERS (from anonymous posters of SoapDish - grain of salt and all that)

OT: I hate shoe shopping. I suck at it. But I hated it before I sucked at it. Anyway, I should've bought shoes that go with both skirts AND dress pants, but no, I didn't think about that, did I? And of course, for one pair of shoes, I only try on the right one. When I get home and try on both, I find that the left one doesn't fit well. Oy. Just oy. And Ugh...Will post more later. Gotta go. Dad is screaming. *gathers brother, sister, and runs* EDIT: I am back. We left the house to get some dinner and to give some "cooling off" time. Gah. I did not miss this when I was away at school. Anyway, Tracy!Time! That one spoiler has been up there for the longest time, I thought. I’m not sure if I believe it, although Scotty/Tracy/Luke scenes would be fun. I just hope Luke doesn’t get dragged into his children's life again for Sweeps. In the breakroom the other day, hooked and I both said we wanted Tracy to get sick for once. THAT could be TG's big SL (as long as they don't put Tracy into a coma ). So, in searching for the Birthdays throughout the thread, I found some old posts, and I've noticed that we've complained about the same things for a while now. Lack of screentime. Screentime that is all about Luke (or Lulu). Wardrobe. Hair. (Ok, those last 2 were all my fault). Anyway, TPTB REALLY need to come up with something new.
