    Maybe they would just show a giant pile of rubble and not actually damage the Horton Square set.  That way, it could be used again after being "rebuilt".

    The location of the fundraiser in honor of Lexi’s memory may not be close to Horton Square–the tunnels may not run under the square as well.

    The good was Abigail’s red dress… very flattering on her and age appropriate.

    The bad and the ugly… Kate’s outfit, of course.  Whoever designed that dress should never be allowed to design one again.

    I agree with everything that has been posted already.  I’d like to add the sound-alike words that are constantly used incorrectly:  to – too – two  —  their – there – they’re  —  weather – whether — etc.  We didn’t make the rules for proper English, but we had to learn them and remember them.  Why can’t younger people do the same?

    When I was a teen, I knew a guy named Thomas Thomas.

    My seven-year old granddaughter likes to watch American Idol with me.  Since our last name is Dixon, she is convinced that Colton must be a relative of hers.  My husband’s Dixon ancestors came from England to the Carolinas (in the 1600s) to Indiana (in the mid-1700s) and then to Ohio (very early 1900s).  Anything is possible.

    Mine did not record the show either.  The on-screen guide may have listed DOOL for that date and time, but obviously something went haywire.  Something must have been in the listing (or left out of the listing) to make the DVR not recognize that the show was actually on.  I had to watch on Soap Net, too.

    Julie Pinson married Billy Warlock in August 2006.  Krista Allen played the lead role in a series of soft porn television movies inspired by the sex icon Emmanuelle.  (Info from Wikipedia)

    Madison’s skirt looked like big leaves of cabbage wrapped around her.

    When John and Marlena went on their honeymoon in 1999, Belle and Brady were only about 5 and 7.  When arriving back home, Marlena remarked how much they had grown (wink, wink), because they were now about 15 and 19 (Brady was a college dropout).  Belle, Shawn D, Mimi, Philip and Chloe all were high school sophomores in the autumn of 1999. I believe that Chloe joined the group mid-term, when she came to live in Salem and many kids called her "Ghoul Girl".  They had their high school adventures and heartbreaks for three years, graduating from Salem High in May or June of 2002.  They should all be 27 or 28 by now, but as it has been pointed out, their ages are all over the place.  Sami Brady was a teenager when her half-sister, Belle Black, was born.  That would make Sami’s age early 40’s by now, which is not the case.

    My husband and I had to have all four of our parents go to city hall to sign papers giving their permission for us to get married.  This was in Cleveland, Ohio, and anyone under the age of 21 needed their parents’ permission to marry.  Guys under 18 and girls under 16 could not get married at all.

    When we got married, I was 18 and my husband was 20.  I became a grandma at the age of 39  (four children and five grandchildren).  I started watching DOOL about two weeks after it went on the air.

    If I ever get married again, Maggie’s wedding gown is just what I’d want to wear.  However, since my husband and I celebrated our golden wedding anniversary on September 30, I don’t think I’m likely to get married again.

    Breaking news stories somehow happen a lot at 1:00pm EST.  Several years ago, our Detroit station pre-empted DOOL with a news story–an explosion at a local high school.  Imagine the worried parents at home, watching the story on TV.  However, the helicopters above the school showed no smoke and no fire coming from the school building.  An hour wasted–for a FIRECRACKER going off in someone’s locker.

    I recorded the show and finally watched it last night.  I really enjoyed it.  I wish they had used actual "little people" (dwarfs) to portray The Seven Dwarfs.  There are enough competent actors among little people.  Reminds me of cowboy/Indian movies of the 1950s, when actors wore dark makeup, black wigs and colored contact lenses to portray American Indians.   OK, I was a fan of the show "Little People, Big World" and enjoyed their recent update episode.  My oldest daughter was in the same high school graduation class as Amy (the mom on the show) in 1980.
