It's on and crackin'!

Ava's previously unknown cousin? Man, Claire is such a bitch. Ooh, the Vitale fortune. I wonder if we're going to get video of Tamara Braun talking to baby Tripp. Ugh, Scooter is creepy.

Damn, what is the problem between Lani and Eli? I love Kate speaking the truth to Chad, but not happy about her comments about Paul. It would be so great if they're talking about Will because he's coming back, but I doubt it. I guess if Lani was pregnant from the Miami encounter, they would have let us know by now. Remembering the old Abigail, it's hard to believe that her comments to Gabi about wanting to stay friends is true, but it sure seems like it. God, will they STOP with that breathy woman singing Abigail and Chad's theme? She's annoying af.

Are we supposed to believe that that little kid in the Cottonelle ad came up with feeling like a "sparkly mermaid" all by himself?

A new station just started up in Sacramento today. "Classic rock" for Gen-Xers. In other words, "classic rock" from the 90s and 2000s.

It reminds me of modern day crime dramas with all of the gritty urban scenes.

Dammit, the Giants started the new season the way they ended last season, by blowing saves. Their multimillion dollar closer, Melancon, fits right in.

There were lots of Southern California fans who went to Oakland for games, that won't change in Vegas.

I fell in love with Gabrielle Union after seeing Bring it On.

This has to be an April Fool joke, right?

Opening Day in Phoenix today then off tomorrow, so as not to interfere with the NCAA basketball finals. Weird scheduling.

Today was the preview showcase for this summer's season of the Sacramento Music Circus. They bring in performers that are going to be performing during the season, and give them a chance to sing. Today there were four actresses who sang three songs each. Glenn Casale, the Artistic Director for the Sacramento Music Circus, said that, after they went through all of the resumes (and I presume audition tapes?) they actually auditioned 3000 actors before settling on the actors who will be in the five shows of this season. The performers today were Anne Brummel, who will be in 9 to 5; Jacquelyn Piro Donovan, who will be in Damn Yankees; Jen Cody, who will be in On The Town; and Shannon Warne, who will be in Beauty and the Beast, as Mrs. Potts. I fell in love with Jen Cody. She performed "Adelaide's Lament", and really did it justice. Shannon Warne sang "I Dreamed a Dream", and I guess she was overcome with emotion, because as soon as she sang it, she walked off the stage without acknowledging the audience.

Ruben Amaro, Sr. has died at the age of 81. http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/Philadelphia-Phillies-Ruben-Amaro-Sr-dies-at-81.html

His caring for Abigail when she had run away was how he got back into Chad's good graces.

There's an April Fool joke running around the Internet about Peter Reckell coming back to play a barber who will help male Salemites deal with their sex lives. Like I said, it's a joke.

I read some ridiculous article this morning that said that nobody wants Kap because he's vegan. Yeah, that's the reason.

I wonder if Pence is afraid that he can't control himself around women, or if he's afraid that women can't control themselves around him.

I can't believe how pretty Dane DeHaan looks in those previews, and find it hard to believe he's 31. He's even prettier than Cara Delevingne.

I loved Victor's comments about Deimos's many friends drawing straws to see who gets to beat the crap out of him. wtf is Abby wearing? She looks like she's wearing a necktie made out of the same material as the rest of her blouse. Man, Hillary is nosy, isn't she? I'd love to see Brady trying to fake chemical engineering. Chloe and Deimos working together is like a coupling from hell. Why did Abby take Chad to Gabi's hospital room and leave him there? That door in Nicole's place looks familiar.

I adore Vet Ranch. If people don't know what that is, it's a YouTube channel with over a million subscribers, where veterinarians help rescued animals who are in need of medical procedures and help to find them forever homes. I cannot endorse the channel highly enough. https://www.youtube.com/user/VetRanch The guy who runs Vet Ranch also runs Demolition Ranch, where he likes to blow things up and shoot them up with heavy guns (he's from Texas), and another channel called Off The Ranch, where he vlogs his and his family's daily lives.

I used to live in a condo that had patios with six foot fences. My cat liked to go out on the patio and look under the fence to see what was going on but never made any move to jump the fence. One time a stray cat jumped the fence and came at him, but I ran out and chased it off. Max was traumatized for a while, but went back out again. The problem was leaving the sliding door open to let him go in and out, because flies loved to come in when it was open.

Unfortunately, other forums I'm reading have rabid fans drooling at the prospect of her coming back.

ew, yuck

Far too many high strung people right off the bat. And all of the cops and military and firefighters. This is going to be war. Well, we have one celeb - X Games guy. "If you're not here to have fun, then what are you doing here?" That's so my take on things. Why is it every time we have a person from Boston on reality shows, they're cops? "All Asians look like they're twelve." Flash to the Asian taxi driver. Can we not do the rap any more? Having to compete against pros was ridiculous. They should have just had to run the course. Damn, the greeter was hot! That water looked so nasty, there's no way I would have wanted to wind up dunking in it. Beardy butcher guy is annoying. What a bummer way to be eliminated.

Yay for Brock Stassi. Local boy. He played for the Yuba City High School Honkers. :)
