Why your support matters

If those reporters want a real story, I suggest they investigate why and how Victor Newman "quietly reversed" his second vasectomy. I can't imagine why a man pushing 70 would do such a thing even after learning several women conspired to steal his sperm sample from a clinic just so they could bear his ill-gotten progeny. Nor can I imagine why Nikki, who must surely have been his wife at the time, wouldn't even bat an eye upon learning such a fact.

Nor can I even begin to guess why Katherine alone would be privy to this information. That had to be an awkward phone call. "Hello, Katherine? I'm having my vasectomy reversed today, YouGotThat? YouHaveAniceDay." Why Katherine didn't go to the tabloids with that, I'll never know.

Somebody call the Humane Society! I see horse abuse on this show. How dare they subject poor innocent horses to sniveling and crying and then not even give them oats. I guess it's all par for the course on a show where people shove cookies and crackers into a kid's mouth to keep them quiet during their scenes, but I feel sorrier for the horses than I do the babies. The babies are building trust funds for college, but the horses just wind up in the glue factory.

Nikki's creepy dream about that creepy kid who would have been Sabrina's child could have been a lot worse. At least the kid wasn't singing at a jazz club. What strange casting, too. Sabrina was either French, Italian or Spanish, depending on which day you tuned in, yet the child seemed vaguely Indian or middle Eastern. With a weird kid like that, when the phantom of David says we have Nikki to thank for depriving her of ever being born, I must offer up a hearty "Thank you Nikki."

During a week like this, the only sane place to be had to be the nurse's lounge at the hospital. Oh, to be a fly on the wall in there. I'm guessing it went a little something like this:

Nurse #1: Helen, did you hear?

Nurse #2: What?

Nurse #1: They wheeled in another one of those damn Newman kids again today.

Nurse #2: Which one?

Nurse #1: One of the daughters.

Nurse #2: Victoria again? Wasn't she just discharged a couple of months ago?

Nurse #1: No it's another daughter, name's Sabrina.

Nurse #2: I didn't know Victor had a daughter named Sabrina. How many kids does this guy have?

Nurse #3: No, Madge, that's not his daughter, that's his wife.

Nurse #1: His wife? But her chart says she's the same age as his daughter.

Nurse #2: Crap I didn't know he liked 'em that young. I'd have fixed him up with my granddaughter.

Nurse #1: Isn't she 12?

Nurse #2: She can pass for 16.
