Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

I saw all the posts and thought there was either Strike or Tim news. Days works too.

not cousins

If for no other reason than Shawn's father, Bo, isn't really a Brady, but is Victor (not shown on Days unless someone dies) Kiriakis' son.

Or is Marlena a Brady by marriage. Wait, it's coming back -- Marlena was married to Roman, who fell off a cliff and came back as John Black, then remembered that he was Roman, until the original actor decided to come back, then they said that Stefano had brainwashed John into thinking that he was Roman, but now Roman was back and Marlena was all torn because she was in love with John because she thought he was Roman, and the kids had worked it out with the new guy.

And we forgot to add that when Roman came back the next time, he looked and talked exactly like the blue collar construction worker and former Salem resident Chris Kositchek, however everyone in Salem was too polite to say anything. Even Maggie, with whom he had flirted--AS Chris.

As a result of my childhood, I have way too many memory synapses wasted on this show.

Wait till you hear about the laser-shootin' boots.

Yeah, Marlena was the Salem Stalker a couple years back. She killed all the most beloved members of the cast, and then she was killed, except nobody really died and she didn't really do it. They all woke up in The Village, basically. And then Tony DiMera made a volcano blow up , and then there was a tsunami, and then I lost track for a while.

That was under the same head writer who did the possessed-by-the-devil story. And created Passions. He is my hero.

And I just found this:

When their plane began to lose altitude Marlena agreed to jump from the plane, and was rescued by Smokey Robinson
Oh, Days.

even better--Melaswen--or New Salem spelled backwards.

Our wings are not tired.

Well it looks like Grammys will happen. I do enjoy awards shows. [link]

egad, are these plots for reals?! I haven't laughed so hard in ages.

Barely touched the surface. General Hospital has had some fun plots too. My SIL mocks my soap viewing pleasure and prefers the daytime talk shows. I prefer the wacky that doesn't pretend to be real.

Karma is a cat, sleeping in my lap cuz it loves me. ~TS

John Black is really the son of Colleen Brady and Stephano's father. Hence the casting mention that started this - Shirley Jones.

Wait, I thought John was Lawrence's brother?? And who's Colleen Brady? That's not Shawn's wife, is it?

she's the mother of the Brady clan. I can't remember her husband's name.

But, if John is the son of Colleen Brady and Stefano DiMeara, that makes him and Roman step brothers?

My head hurts. And I should say again that I have not watched this show for over ten years.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
