While trying to come up with ideas, one of the writers accidentally found this site.

That was my first thought. I would think that Portia or some other medical professional would have gone into the room with her in order to monitor his condition as well as be a witness to his decision, for legal reasons if nothing else. "Only one person is the room" is the rule for visitors, not doctors and nurses. So I guess we know that Carly is going to lie

I vote for Monica leaving it to the descendants of Mary Mae Ward. If done correctly, (ha ha ha, who am I kidding?) the shakeup could be good soap and provide some counter programing to Beyond the Gates. As much as I like Ned, I wouldn't mind it if Olivia, who I think is pretty useless, had to live above Bobby's. And add Gio, Joss, Trina, and Lois to that list. I am having fun right now imagining Olivia haranguing Joss. This! 1000 times!

I've been thinking that Nina has been letting Drew take the lead, not only because she knows Willow will listen to him, but because she can be the one to use diplomacy and stay in the comparatively good graces of Sonny and Carly while they actively hate Drew. But then, I could be thinking more about this than the writers.

That's not a subject I've broached with him. He was single then, but married now. I imagine his wife may have had some input into his use of undergarments.

About the accuracy of Michaels burns and wearing masks: Quite a number of years ago, my brother was badly burned in a car accident and spent more than a month in a burn unit. We live in different states, but I happened to be in town for something else when it happened and got to the hospital no more than a day later. His clothing had caught on fire*, but he had no burns on his face. The burn unit had specific hours of visitation, in part because they didn't want visitors around in eye- or earshot when they were actually dealing with the burns, but we were never asked or told to wear masks. Although he was awake and carrying on conversations, he was heavily drugged and has no memory of his first weeks in the hospital. So, so far, most of what's happening on GH squares with my experience. But I imagine if Michael does gain consciousness (and stays that way) before he's shipped to the Offscreen Facility he'll be able to run Aurora from his bed. *FWIW -- Your mothers were right: The last thing my brother remembers was being in the emergency room -- before being given painkillers -- when they were cutting off his clothes. He heard the nurse say, "Oh -- he isn't wearing any underwear." Also -- he survived and is fine today. He does, however always wear long sleeved shirts and long pants, not because he wants to hide scars, but because of the delicate condition of his skin.

And because they probably used up their budget on the day player social worker.

Carly to Drew: How did I miss how self-centered you are? Me yelling at TV: Because you're so self-centered yourself!! Truly a case of rubber/glue -- she could have been describing herself. Also, If anyone ever deserved a well-placed slap, Joss tops the list.

Aw c'mon! FonDuke was vintage soap . . . so bad it became good.

I happened to see the swearing-in ceremony on tv a couple of years ago. Unless things have changed, all 435 representatives are sworn in at once in the House chambers. They do get a chance for an individual photo op later, but Willow and Wiley would be up in the nosebleed seats, not close up and near by. And Sonny, you made sure the doctor wouldn't talk, but how about the EMTs? I don't think they have to worry about HIPPA rules when they talk to their colleagues about getting called to the gym for a guy that might be having a heart attack, and turned out to be Sonny Corinthos, but he refused to go with them, so the trip was basically a waste of their time

So many things seemed . . . off with this group. Except for the husband, everyone else was pretty unlikeable. If anyone ever doubted producer interference, all they have to do is watch this episode. This group clearly was not interested in availing themselves of all the water toys, despite what the preference sheet said. They were unhappy with the sailing, despite the preference sheet, because the boat was leaning too much. (FFS!) They didn't seem too interested in the cocktail mixing class, either. (more about that later). Who declares she doesn't like oysters at dinner after (apparently) liking them on her preference sheet? What kind of person leaves a bag of vomit in the hall? And what kind of idiot keeps announcing that she's going to be sick and waits for someone to bring her a bucket? At the very least, head for the railing and puke over the side of the boat -- not at the dinner table! To be fair, though, I kind of have to agree with the stew who basically said everything on the boat was half-assed. (My words, not hers). If you're going to tell your guests to muddle something, then you don't have only one muddler so they have to take turns. You say, you can muddle using this instrument, but a lot of bartenders just use one of these bar spoons. Shame on Daisy for not foreseeing that. I get the feeling that at least some of these folks were somewhat coerced into doing this. They didn't seem to even like each other very much.

Uh (shifts a bit uncomfortably and with some nostalgia) . . . same here . . . so thankful that I was in college when people could only talk about you, not film you on their phone.

And just the other day Natalia was telling Sonny how she'd planned out her son's musical career -- until he took off and went no contact, so they're portraying her as totally unswerving in her behavior since she was doing the same thing with Blaze. (But of course, all this allows Sonny to tell her how wonderful she really is.) And I'm glad you mentioned the makeup issue. I thought I was the only one noticing and was considering blaming my television, but it's been bad ever since she first appeared. One would think that by now someone would have figured out what to do.

Yes, he did 'Deadly Waters with Captain Lee". He hosted the show about a different death (murder) on the water each week. This season had 8 episodes. It wasn't bad -- but it was no different that all the other murder of the week shows. No word on whether or not it will have a second season.
