Movin' On UP!

Well, if you read two entries down, AOL has decided to shut down it's whole "hometown", which includes journals. For some people that's really terrible, as it was a diary of their lives. Thank goodness for me, it's mostly forgettable GH rantings! LOL. I have tried wordpress, and liked it.

NOTES about commenting over there: You CAN sign in using a false name. Really. Use Petunia Garis...unfortunately, you do have to put in an email addy. I guess if you want blog alerts you'll want them there as well. You can CREATE A PROFILE and user name so people like walker and friscowanna be will be able to be identified. LOL. I see Betty (Pens63) Kristen (KWR21) have done that already.

update: I think I turned off the 'register' feature to comment.

If your post doesn't show up right away, I have to approve it. I've tried to turn that feature off too!

I do, for now need to keep the spoilers on the www.wubs.net site. Word press has no means for ad revenue and I do depend on ad hits and Amazon sales to help maintain everything I do. You know that by reading the blog though, you often get things I don't put on the site, including photos.

THIS BLOG will be switched to http://kdmask.wordpress.com starting today. I will leave the www.generalhospitalblog.com connected to this blog for awhile so people can FIND it. Tell your friends, Wubqueen's moving!

BTW, if you are an AOL user and 'subscribe' (pay for it) just so you know, the photo storage feature is another thing they will be eliminating, so back up your photos NOW!

THANKS so much for comin' on over.

Attention AOL Journals Users -- United States

Dear AOL Journals user,

We're sorry to inform you that on Oct. 31, 2008, AOL® Journals will be shut down permanently. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

They APOLOGIZE for any INCONVENIENCE?? LOL. Oy! Well, I'm going to look around for a new spot. You know the URL is www.generalhospitalblog.com so wherever I go, you can find me. Or, time to retire? Who knows. I have a month to look around. I have no idea how to save all my content. Guess it's gone to the cyber gods. AOL is just getting worse and worse.

SIGH. Keep coming here, make suggestions and if I transist to another place, you'll have plenty of notice.

PS, now they are saying things could go 'at anytime'...so, if you log in here, don't see the blog, check on www.wubs.net, I'll have an announcement where it's moved. OR use the URL to find me. I do think this will be ok for a week or so!

TAKE A LOOK AT THIS? what do you think? It's just a PROTOTYPE...try it out, see if you can comment and stuff, ok?

TODAY'S SHOW:

So, after all of this...after the whole "Michael's shooting changes everything"....we get.....THE SAME OL' SAME OL'!!!!!!!!!!!! Whatever. I hope Jason goes down and takes out every last mobster in town just to get that off my screen. I'm with Monica yesterday, how many people have been shot next to or because of Sonny? Let's make a list. I'm going to start, you add people, ok? How many can we get? And yes, please list multiple shootings.

Lily: Blown to bits (easy one)

And a Little about OLTL...

Tue, 30 Sep 2008 01:50:32 GMT

Now THIS was a wedding! :)

I am catching OLTL on SoapNet...lol.. What a show. First, they put crazy Brody in the same place with Dorian? UHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Wouldn't he be in a psych hospital?? Or mental jail? Can he see her pee? LOVED Addie and Dorian! I love the Cramer connection. This show uses such history. Even the Clint/Asa meanness circle. Shane being a mouthy kid in the hospital and Gigi losing it. Marcie and Michael. awwww.

Weak link? Langston's boyfriend. New actor: STAT!

Oh, Clint is getting so naughty and mean! He's looking like Asa too, I think!!

Poor Marcie...psycho Todd boy. And you know what? I didn't hate her singing at all! Nice touch. Usually I gag at that stuff. What a natural voice! oy! Why can't Marcie have kids? Do we know?

Brody: Great actor, especially the last couple of days. I don't like Gigi's hair cut.

I am spoiler free on OLTL..I am so hoping Rex stays on the show, I LOVE him. I LOVE the relationship he has with Bo. He reminds me of Dillon Q--I still miss Scott Clifton. :(

Ok, enough about OLTL! Just thought I'd gab a bit!

Aaaaaaaaaaavaaaaaaeeeeee MARIIIIIIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAA

Mon, 29 Sep 2008 19:23:31 GMT

The whole bill thing? What a stunner--and everyone coming out blaming someone else. Republicans saying it's Pelosi, Dems saying it's the Republicans. I think Pelosi looks like she's been crying!! What idiots they all are. I told my hubby to BUY GOLD months ago. Who looks like a genius now? Me, but a broke one. LOL.

ON WITH "feel good" GH! LOL...

Kate's wedding is tres too WHITE for fall. Just sayin'-- Any stylist would tell you that. Ok, listening to Ave Maria. Who's been to a wedding where someone sang it so badly you really, really couldn't help but get the "church giggles"? SO many weddings I've been to and someone sings and I lose it. Guess what I didn't have at mine! :)

SO GODFATHER! whathahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Opera, people falling, slow mo...GET IT? SLOW 'MO'??

WHY IN God's name isn't there security there? Jax saves Carly! hee hee and the "Hail Mary's" yeah for Olivia. Yep--two times Kate's been shot. HA! LULU..wowza. I wish they would have had her see Logan at that point. Add a little weirdness to it all. If I wrote for this show, I'd go all out.

TRACY! looking in on Laura!! Oh, me likey. Jane Elliot and TG and GF are going to be great if Genie comes back.

IT'S "GH" AND NO ONE HAS MEDICAL TRAINING!!?? braahahahahhahahaaha. figures!! church full o' people and no one there to step up. Good LORD.

And Carly's 'medical' training is holding the wound. :)

I think the odds of getting shot if you live in Port Charles is about 2:1. It's unbelievable. Carly listening to Sonny say it was the "first girl he ever loved".

Poor LIZ. Whoops. You're going on a trip and guess what? There's blood on the floor again.

Oh, AZ is too smart to use RUSSIAN BULLETS! He's a wily one. Let's get him and HELLS MARRIED! Can you imagine? who would be left standing? Plus Cardia would be her step daughter. (I used to fantasize that Carly #1 was Hells' granddaughter cause I loved Sarah and Connie together!)

GOTTA run, I am DVRing the rest of GH. ;) tell me what you think!

Fun List and Shoot First, ask Why Later...

Mon, 29 Sep 2008 10:51:01 GMT

This was sent to me by Gedstern. She found it on some board, and we thought it was pretty fun!

After-school Project -- Night Shift
Athletics Coach -- Bob Guza (Head writer)
A/V (Audio/Visual) Club president -- Rick Hearst (Ric Lansing)
Class President -- Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis Davis)
Cool Kids -- Greg Vaughn (Lucky Spencer) and Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco)
Farm Girl -- Claire Coffee (Nadine Crowell)
FC (Football Captain) -- Steve Burton (Jason Morgan)

BTW, nothing new over the weekend, really--just the same ol' same ol. There is some scuttlebutt about having Night Shift go "nightly"--although I can't see it budget wise. Not only that, the main core of the show is SCrubs and you couldn't really take them off GH to devote a ton of time over there. Or could you? Hmmmmmmmmm. hee hee.

Today's the "Wedding Woes" day--Guza style. You know, it would have been good WITHOUT Kate getting shot. They totally could have done the whole Olivia reveal without this crap. It's just another Guza bullet in the ___________ (fill in the blank) so they can stay in the hospital on their "death bed" . ugh. Can't tell you how mad it makes me! I honestly think the writers don't know how to do a story if someone isn't shot or something doesn't blow up. Think about it. That's GH in a nutshell; when in doubt, shoot..blow up or put into coma. LOL...

Paul Newman...I had no idea!

Sat, 27 Sep 2008 16:26:44 GMT

When I wrote about The Sting this morning, I had no clue Paul Newman had died. How sad. What a class act--especially in his private life, which was private. He was such a great actor and humanitarian.

"The Sting" Rumor...

Sat, 27 Sep 2008 13:41:13 GMT

Remember about two months ago I had the thing up about "THE STING" movie and Jason and Sonny basically doing a Newman/Redford stunt against AZ? Well, now it seems Guza may be doing that --but with Claudia and Sonny. I kid you not. The latest BUzzzzzzzzzzzz is that they get married because Sonny finds out "Daddy" was the Kate shooter. See, he goes a little mental after all of this, first thinking it's Karpov, then finding out it's AZ. Can't confirm this, but wild rumors have been around about Sonny marrying someone besides Kate and with the "sting" thing it fits. Sonny will convince AZ they are 'united' against Karpov, when really he's working from the inside out to destroy him.

Now, why he just doesn't put a bullet in him and be done with it, we don't know. Guess it's too easy. We'll have to see if this one plays out.

Comment:

Comment from: antjoan
"PLEASE, someone explain to me WHY Sonny would invite Olivia to the wedding, knowing this would cause Kate to be "outed." Is he TRYING to ruin her career? And then putting her up at Carly's hotel, and not telling her to keep Kate's identity a secret--and why wasn't Kate more upset about this, or trying to tell her cousin to keep her mouth shut?

No one spoke about how bringing Olivia to Port Charles would make it inevitable for Kate to be "outed" as Connie."

Yeah, I thought the same thing, why in the heck would he put her up at the Metro?? Bizarre. It's GH though, deal with it, right?!

OH, and PS...as someone else said WHERE WAS THE SECURITY? The Paps? Anything?

"Nice Mouth in Church"!! heh..

Fri, 26 Sep 2008 20:01:40 GMT

So, I wrote a huge blog, and my wireless crashed. OY VEY! It was really good too. LOL. All sorts of stuff. Now, I'll try to remember it all. First, make sure you get to watch Night Shift from now on in...Oct 7th, Monica shows up and then on the finale Oct 14th, they are having the original credits and music!

There's a giant article on TVGuide Canada about the Juice hitting the fan. heh. Steve Burton and Ingo's little tiff over it all. Me thinks the whole thing may push a certain someone out the door. Why not? He's made a ton of money so far. Here's hoping the whole business doesn't get shut down.

General Hospital, CTV/ABC — Monavie-gate: Rademacher versus Burton!
• Want more proof the business is imploding? There’s a controversy brewing backstage regarding the miracle Jesus Juice Steve Burton is hawking to GH viewers at fan events. Burton — who recently told Soap Opera Weekly he’s earned over half a million dollars so far this year as an independent distributor — and his co-star Derk Cheetwood (Max) filmed a promotional YouTube video on the ABC set without network permission. The viral video stars a security guard and a wardrobe employee promoting the cult-like benefits of the Monavie culture.

A furious Ingo Rademacher (Jax) reportedly emailed a letter to the entire GH cast urging them not to participate in this shady and dodgy pyramid scheme because it is beginning to make the show look greedy. Later, I’m told Burton and Rademacher exchanged tense words on set regarding the email. But then Rademacher had to depart for his five-month paid vacation.

SKATE's Wedding DAY:

I loved Maxie and Olilvia. I am really liking Olivia. We need her. Not sure why, but we do! Loved her yelling at Kate. Kate's "oh I don't buy MY dresses at the MALLLLLLLL" what a witch!! The funniest thing was them yelling and everyone listening.

I liked Diane/Alexis...and Diane and Carly in the hall...;)

SpinMax--cute as always. I really like the babydoll look on her.

Is that supposed to be the church "changing" room? bajeebies. And Kate not taking the necklace, what a witch! Wasn't she just complaining about NOT having it to Sonny??

OH, SONNY/Spin scene!! Even Ric and Cardia were cute with Sonny. OMG, half the town has slept with Sonny. Carly's face says it all. heh.

BEST DRESSED: Alexis, Maxie and MIKE! he looked fabu!

OK: I AM A HUGE Olivia Fan now. I mean, big. She's up there with Diane, well. Almost. She has to go a long way to get close to Hells but I love her!! It's rare someone can come on and in a couple of days fit in and be fantastic.

NEW SPOILERS ARE UP! What happening? Well, I hear there is going to be a Fast-forward future thingy coming in November, just like Desperate Housewives and Lost has done. Personally? I wish they'd take all the gimmicks and hugeness and invest in stories. Go, watch Night Shift. learn a thing or two! Who's going to sleep together: Ric/Claudia...Nik/Nadine...Liason (in some paint mess!) And the biggie inside stuff I have (well, not THAT big, but hey)--Ric will find out about Cardia and Trevor...s** will hit ze fan!

Was the music all wavy today? Mine was all over the place.

Yesterday...

Fri, 26 Sep 2008 14:00:27 GMT

Sorry, I had a whopper of a migraine. Sometimes I can blog when I get them, sometimes I pass out! LOL...

I did see some of yesterday's show. Do people say their vows during rehearsal? I just thought you went "yada yada"...I did like Kate's dress. I do love Olivia and Carly sitting in the lobby of the Metro dishing. I also thought when Lucky slammed Johnny into the wall, it was going to topple over!

TODAY'S the WEDDING!!!!!!!!!!! Or, the start of it. I'll be watching with you, promise. Headache or not. I still wish The Ace of Cakes would have come on and made something spectacular for the happy couple. With beautiful crystal SKates on top! hee hee.

I have scoops in the box. There are a million rumors going around and I'm sifting through them. It's hard--so much is going on. I would rather focus on those than the "news" out there. oy.
