Why HBO Should Be in Charge of History Lessons
With all due respect to Ken Burns, I think his days as America's favorite history-teller are numbered. Like many, I was fascinated by his series on the Civil War, baseball and World War II. But, if I'm totally honest, I must confess that...

Posted 5:21 pm December 13th, 2007I saw the video. I think I'll watch it a million times before I go to bed. hee hee! It is beyond fantastic!!!
*Arrrrgh* the show just makes me want to puke sometimes. I hated his version of hell. It was just such horrible filler and a not-very-convincing out of body experience. And like anybody on that show stays married for 10 years (like Lulu and what'shisface were supposed to have been in Luke's hell).
Doesn't Bobbi look like that little doll who plays the teacher that Kris Kringle falls in love with in "Santa Claus is Coming to Town"? Her face is so pulled back!
I don't know who to think the killer is. I was thinking it was Coop during the black and white ball but then sometimes I think Johnny might be whacko too.
We should totally start a GH group!
Hope all is well with you. :)

Posted 2:22 pm December 13th, 2007You and Jim should hire the photographer of your "Family Christmas Portrait" for any and all occasions. Homer is looking rather coy....it must be the magic of the season. Lucy is all set for the tree lighting ceremony with her lampshade in place....she will not be blinded by the lights that for sure. Hope to see you soon......Love you guys, Eddie

Posted 10:50 am December 13th, 2007Love your slideshow!
Have you been following GH this week? I wanted to comment on it but didn't want to spoil anything for you if you aren't caught up through yesterday's episode.
Hope all is well!

Posted 8:08 pm December 2nd, 2007I only watched GH when I was in HS and then I just got away from the show. Nobody is supposed to know this, but my husband is the reason I watch it now. He was an addict when we met and I got sucked back in to the show. :-0
I teared up too at what happened with Emily!!! I feel so bad for Monica with the losses that she has had to endure. And I hope that Patrick and Robin get back together. I know it's just a soap opera but I am soooooo lost in the plots (no matter how unbelieveable they are!!!) D'oh! Somehow this lowers my crediblity as an intelligent person!
P.S. Can Sonny say "You know" any more than he does? And can this Carly do the Elvis snear any more than she does? :)
