    My church teaches tolerance – hate the sin, don’t hate the sinner.   But read further before you start shouting "what sin? Don’t they have the right to love?"  Please read just a bit further and try and make some sense out of my ramblings here:

    I loved Days.  Several friends have commented they (some have watched as long as 40 years), as well, they are going to be doing a lot of FF’ding and did yesterday.  Me, I’ve quit the show permanently now because of this veyr story line two months ago, (after 21 years) of being a very advid fan.  I keep up on some of the SL’s via all of your comments on SP.  

    Some will say "Well, you watched adultry, murder, kidnapping, lying, cheating, stealing, wife-swapping, husband swapping all those 21 years, why is this any different?" and "You thought the movie Tootsie was cute."  I know people that are homosexual in real life at their businesses – very nice people from what I can see.  People on this forum have come out and said they are – and seem to be very nice people. 

    BUT I do not want to see it on t.v. or in the movies – and the arguement to me will be: ‘Well, if you are going to watch Bo and Hope or whomever other heterosexual couple maybe in the scene shouldn’t the homosexual couple have the same rights?’  I don’t want to see Bo and Hope naked and sweaty or liplocked either, I’d rather they walk into their bedroom and close the door and I can take my imagination and leave it at their closed door.  I don’t need them to see them mess up the sheets.  I know this 2012 and it  isn’t the Ozzie and Harriet era, nor is it even Dick and Laura’s bedroom days anymore, but why do we have to take every thing to the absolute base line these days? Are we not all adults and have a brain? 

    I’m not going to preach here, just trying to say how we in "the flyover states" mostly feel, we are not all "sophisticated" NY’ers or "in-the-know-of-hip" left coasters from Hollyweird that can take or will take all that is dished out to us.  God has not left it up to me to decide/judge about a person.  No, people in glass houses should not throw stones and all, and God commands me take the beam out of my own eye before trying to remove someone else beam from their eye, all this I get down to my very bones, BUT that  does mean that I have free will to watch or I can turn the channel to another show and stop buying the advertisers products and wonder about the state of my country and where it is going. 

    And as the very wise man Mr. Forrest Gump once said, "….and that’s all I’m going to say about that."

    it must be very confusing for folks on who to spend time with, well, I thought for 35 years she was my Mom, but now this lady is my real Mom…where do I go for turkey dinner?

    until Bonbon pointed it out.  I got confused with Abe and Sami wearing heavy coats, Carrie calling for hot chocolate and going "brrrrrrrrrrr", and in the same scene five seconds later, Maddison was wearing short sleeves and Kate was dressed for the Sahara dessert – yet the fire place that any other area open to people walking by and children running that would be in violation of an entire section of an OSHA safety issue, was blazing away…

    murderers, kidnappers, illegal gamblers, crime families, and even tigers – then they sure aren’t going to bust anyone with an open container on the streets of Salem.

    have yet another writer’s block and decide to change and re-write the history that we fans know once again.  And you know they will.

    Which is where I guess, they get saying "getting on my last nerve" is when the kids turn up those sub-woofers thumpers in their car on the highest setting and drive down the street.  Rattles the rearview mirror in my car when I’m in front of them, and I have to turn up the t.v. when in my house (and I live on a very quiet street) they drive by.  Irritating.  When I was young we used to blast the radio but we had a radio or 8-track (never mind explaining to the youngsters about that)…not this mega-noise intrusion you can here from six-blocks away like they do now.

    distroy him to know he was not a nono to Johnny as he does love that little boy.  And if EJ isn’t his child, you can kiss Stefano good-bye.  The man would have a heart attack.

    really big handbags.  No more kids that don’t have real daddies in Salem.

    said, "OK, I forgive.", "OK, I’ll change.", "OK, I’ll be a better wife, (or mother or sister or daughter – employee – BTW, I don’t ever think she’s said the words " better friend" to any one as Sami has no true friends if you think about it)", – but you get my drift.  The woman is all promise and tears and no action to follow through to change.

    to be "hip" and "in" (or whatever the kids are calling it now-days).  I didn’t agree with Whitney Houston and her choice of a way to go, but the lady could sing.   Now, more than half of the "talent" will not be remembered in five or ten years…true talent endures.

    every little girl wanted to be a stewardess (excuse me, I forgot "PC land"- flight attendent).  And because my dad was military, I got to see many of the places that they flew to.   It was an entirely different planet back then, if they were going to end it, I liked the ending, we didn’t know what was coming in the future – possibliites and promise.  My only fault with the show was that the two main pilots looked like they were out of HS – the blond looked like he was from the 70’s with the sideburns (ten years too early dude).  Most pilots were grey haired or older from WWII and Korean War era – I know because I flew so much back then, they weren’t just out of "pilot school" to get a major route like Europe or South America – those young pilots were on their way to ‘Nam.

    but I had three miscarriages and two ectopic (tubal) pregnancies before I couldn’t take it anymore physically and emotionally and ensured medically that I wouldn’t go through the heartache again.  So Nichole being told that by a doctor, sometimes God has other plans.
