The hell? Who is their head writer and is it whoever was in charge of Days when Marlena was possessed and/or Carly Manning Katerina Von Whatever was buried alived (for freaking weaks) by Vivian?
Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

HA! I was thinking the same thing. Maybe Possessed!By!Satan!Marlena will cross-over.
In unrelated news, I'm over at Monster and it seems that they have a thing now where they tell you how you stack up against other people who have submitted resumes to the same job. I find this bizarre.

I don't know if I'd want to know that, unless I asked. Is it just there, or do you have to request it?

It's just there. It appears after you've hit apply. "28% share your education. 9% share your experience."
What does that even mean?

The Guiding Light news makes me laugh and laugh. I don't follow GL. I may have to tape a few just to see. Har.

If you ask me, most soaps would be improved by the occasional appearance of murderous Doombots.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMG, that GL news is hilarious.
Is this the Project Greenlight thread? Because I just saw an ad for Feast on DVD.

I was unaware that there was such a thing as tobacco smuggling but it intrigues me.
Tobacco smuggling is pretty big in Alaska, at least in some areas. We have pretty high tobacco taxes I hear, although I don't pay that much attention to the rate because I don't smoke.

I used to post here.
But, yeah, tobacco smuggling. When I was a kid in North Carolina, my dad used to own a small grocery. (My dad was a grocer.) And since we lived relatively close to I-95, people who were traveling from New York would always stop in an load up on cartons and cartons of cigarettes.
Don't really know if they were "smuggling." But they were at least taking advantage of packs of cigarettes for less than three dollars.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
One of the fun things the NC state police got to do was pull over semi trailers loaded stem to stern with cartons of NC-priced, NC-made cigarettes, bound for the Nawth and bootleg prices. It was a booming business for a very long time, as long as you didn't get caught. The demand is less these days because of the decrease in smoking, and the increase in taxes that bring NC prices in line with the rest of the country make the profit margin much smaller, so smuggling isn't the big thing it used to be.
Unless somebody can get hold of a truckful of untaxed cartons, of course.
