Do you do any Video Editing? Some compilations of closing credits would be amazing. Also invaluable. There is YouTube & there are many known bad things about it, but there's also good things. There is a Russian competitor, ok.ru & it works fine & you don't need to know Russian. There is another competitor NOT RUSSIAN, rumble.com & it seems to be as good as YouTube without the bad things about it. However, of course, it doesn't currently have the tons of videos that YouTube has. If you are interested, I could do some screen captures, etc. to show you. And, of course, your whole episodes would be the most invaluable of all!!!! I am in awe of anyone who has a collection like this. I let so much just go by.

Apparently I am a child hater, too, although it isn't all children. Loved Miner. Still resent that the stupidly decided to make Michelle older so they could sexualize her. In my druthers Miner's Michelle & Buffington's Bill are today a happily married couple. What is this about some exit interview? HUGE story!

Great. And, it should come up! In a way I still cannot believe that there is someone out there who did this & got away with it!!! It was such a horrible crime, literally a crime against modern civilization. The killer targeted totally unknown, random individuals with probably nothing but a headache or a muscle ache, until ...

Yeah, I know they've not talked about working the program. Unsure also about Curtis but he strikes me as the kind of guy who would plunge into "clean living" so diet change & upping the physical exercise. Definitely! As much as he & Alexis discussed it, both big on 'working the program'. My middle brother was a drug addict, plain & simple, any drug, all drugs but he used AA & NA for over a year at one point & got clean & sober & when he fell off the wagon he drank copious amounts of alcohol & no drugs for a year or two. I thought it was extremely weird but it was clear he simply could not do substances in moderation, that anything for him was going to be to excess. I think the substances were his only true friends. Today Finn looked at that bottle like a long lost friend.

I agree that we as soap fans were spoiled. In various ways, at various times, on different soaps, ... About the show today it was PM/EK Epi 49: The scene with Michael & Joss at a table was a filler scene. It was added later. (But it sure as hell, fit.) Today was a remarkable day for a soap. Amazing dialogue, characters drastically changing their positions. Joss made a 180. Kristina made a 180. Blaze helped Kristina get a clue!!! And, Dante, god bless him, finally told Sonny off! All of Sonny's adult children. Michael trying to take care of Kristina, but having left over to perceive that Joss is still in love with Dex. Not only is Kristina a better person when she's with Blaze, but she is smarter. Going to Dex as she did was so ... unlike her. People beginning to deal with the news of Gregory's demise. Liz, quickly perceptive, found her backbone, so assertive.

I don't like Aaron so far, but it's early days. Loved the "we're going home" dance with Chad & Julie. Seeing Doug always counts!! Has Maggie lost her mind? Why would she trust Konstantin to distribute funds? I just hope she's got something up her sleeve. Kinda freaked me out today. All in all, though, a good show.

Yeah, I just looked that up earlier. In 2022 she had a hit-and-run that ended up also being a DUI. The person she hit was injured & sued her, so she had to deal with both the state & also a civil case, which came up this year. She is just so sad to me. Yes, Frank almost got her back & then something happened with scheduling & it totally fell through because they couldn't work out the logistics. Stay tuned for different versions of this!!!

Pete Lemay was quite good about supporting the Matthews family on AW. (I call him Pete because I learned that only his family & formal documents used Harding. He much preferred Pete, at least that is what it is reported he said.)

What Are You Watching/Binging/Streaming Now?
I am a longtime DUNE fanatic. Back a few weeks ago my brother was here visiting me from SC & he likes DUNE, too, so we actually went to the movie theatre & watched the new DUNE 2. Oddly I almost fell asleep several times. So, now it's on max & of course I watched it again. However, I almost fell asleep several times. So, I have decided it's not me, it's the movie. Take this however you wish. I mean I really found it to be a good flick. I am just about to churn a month of Acorn TV. This will allow me to catch up on HAPPY VALLEY. I plan to also see if the Janet King Australian soaps are on it.

Fair amount. There is one short, but delightful clip of a catfight where Reva & Edmund have to physically separate them. I don't know if you recall but I'm not a big fan of catfights. This one & LW's Cassie with Crystal Chappell's Olivia where Olivia pushes Cassie, just with no aim but to push her away but she lands squarely in this conveniently located HUGE mudpile & it goes on from there. Last one I like is the one Michele Val Jean wrote on Generations where the two women almost destroy an apartment & then it is literally all Kristoff St. John's character can manage to physically separate them. If you desire to see any of these 3, just say & I will find them & post them ... somewhere. Uh, Kim Delaney had another one of her really bad DUI events. By the timing I and others surmise that she had begun drinking again & as I understand it, when she does that, it's 24/7 so she is useless at work. If that is so, then, that would explain why she stopped appearing as Jackie Templeton. Which is one way that Frank is right about things. Just giving a little that's due.

Oh, yes, that would be a total drag. But, ya can't help but worry. I hope we are worrying needlessly. But, I just am still disturbed at this recent change. However, I don't think that Korte would change it & have Carly regress back to when she was actively still angry & saying so to Nina. I mean it's been ages since Carly got past that! She tried & tried to get Drew to move on, too. I tried to get someone who does know, to tell me if Patrick walked or if he was fired. Well, darnit, their reply was that it is Patrick's to comment on, or not, his to confirm or deny & they didn't feel it would be right for them to say. Of course, they're right. But, just phooey. I'm not sure why it matters to me, but it does. It's like who were the scab writers at DAYS. I know someone who does know but he doesn't feel like he should say. Obviously, that is his prerogative but, again, phooey.

@Vee About the Labine era ... And, I personally believe that Drew was expressing a good thing, a positive thought, the essence of chivalry & NOT being abusive, not at all. I will stand & die on this particular hill & I am far from being a Drew fan. I mean he said he wouldn't hit a woman.
