I for one will be glad...
when Marcie slaps Al. I know he has to get adjusted but he is acting soooo special ed. NO wonder Luna was talking to him through clenched teeth. He is clearly going about getting Marcie back all wrong. And again i know there is an adjustment period, but HELLO! U R N some1 else's body! Fall back, regroup and tackle Marcie another way. Staring into her eyes and stalking her is not helping. I can't blieve Al thought it would really be that easy to get Marcie back.
As I was watching Al's reaction to Marcie's anger yesterday, I found myself saying.."WTH did you expect her to think, sweetie? You're MICHAEL, the man she can't stand right now." I love Al like crazy, but he really needs to chill. Maybe Marcie will slap some sense into him after today.
I agree, MsT
hey that rhymes, I'm a poet and don't even know it
He needed to slapped to get some sense knocked into him. I know he was all into his mission to win Marcie back but he needed to come to terms that he is in fact not physically Al anymore and no one's gonna see him that way.

aka whitetiger or Eevil Awakening -On the outside I may look like a sweet little cat but beware because underneath it all is a ferocious tiger ready to pounce at a moments notice.
Natalie: "Al, when are you gonna realize that love isn't supposed to be this hard? When it's meant to be, it just happens."
Al: "Oh, whatever, in what fairy tale?"
whitetiger, U R a nut and I loved Al today!
Ok, today's show exposed some of the things going on INSIDE of Al-or should i say Michael? We know that part of the reason he is acting nutso is because he is occupying space with Michael's personality too. Which is offering an interesting dynamic all on its own. I really enjoyed the way he was back and forth today. By far the most satisfying NM scene since he was in the hospital.
And how about the tension btween John and Michael?? U could cut it with a buzz saw? Great job on both parts. WE learned a lot about the Mcbain bros. today.
I can't say enuf about OLTL 2day. It was the best full hour of soaps i have seen in a long time.
Excerpt I love from Luisa Valenzuela's The Lizard's Tale: I have my obsessions, I have my fear that drags me along. I’ve been woven into a network of fears, they cross back and forth over my head, they close me in like an enormous web spun by a spider in the reeds, black and precise, malefically beautiful. This net of fears, this geometric pattern, I go on weaving it too without knowing why, without understanding it. I would like to decipher a small end of it at least, a point in the web, so as to go along unwinding the infernal plot, but I’m not permitted that either. Some of my dearest friends have been… running all kinds of risks, and here I am messing around, talking about a spiderweb that entraps me, putting myself into poetic images. The worst thing is that I can glimpse it so clearly, something woven by clusters of black spiders, crouching in wait for their prey, a broad, mile-wise web with us as the prey, and the spiders too.
This is a picture of a wall at the OLTL studio back in 95. My picture is the one on the right, 3rd up from the bottom. These pictures were up at the studio because the stage manager wanted to show everyone who they were talking to online. In those days, with AOL, people at the studio got to talk to us, even the actors would stop by the chat room.

That just had to be said again... yes it was!
When the news of NM's departure came down, and all the greiving and sadness, it was like we were going to have to live off our memories of... didn't Tess refer the Diner and the whole scene... Camelot? Gone were the days of the love in the air, and the parties and the giddiness.. and it was like.. hea good things never last and I tried to remember that "at least we got that time" because we got more than what some fan bases ever get... and as we went further into the abyss... and we started thinking about what we have to accept and how we have to look at the bright side... and now?

Re: I for one will be glad...
There once was a man from Nantucket...oh, forget it, I'm not a poet, won't even try.
The kiss and slap was awesome. All of it was great--I'm sorry they won't be on today! But five days of Marcal in a row, I'm not complaining. And now I have a reason to watch the show on the days Marcal isn't on- John McBain! Now if they'd just give Rex a s/l apart from Jen I'd be in soap opera heaven!

Kathy I hope u aren't holding u breath on this one! I thought they were giving him some alternate contacts when they hooked him up with Asa and kevin. That seems to have gone the way of the wind. The amount of talent they waste to uplift this one character (Jen) is sad.
