Why your support matters

by Todd Brown

Since when in the hell does Adam wear reading glasses? I've seen him read stuff before without them, yet when Victoria showed him some kind of contract he pulled out a pair of glasses to read it like he was Victor. What's next, pouring himself a glass of water, putting his hands in his pockets, staring out the window and mumbling to whoever he's taking to with his back to them? Or maybe he's just aging very quickly, a common phenomenon in Genoa City.

Speaking of which, is that little girl Victor keeps talking to in Mexico going to be his next girlfriend? You know how he likes them young. By the time he brings her back to the states she might be legal. Not that it probably matters as far as he's concerned. Next thing you know, we'll find out the kid was best friends with Victoria during the never-before-mentioned time she lived in Puerto Vallerta.

Speaking of aging, how come Fenmore is only 2 while Summer seems to be about 5? They were born within months of each other. Strangely, the two year old Fenmore was far more animated and vocal than the five-year old Summer. That's what happens when you go from 2 to 5 without learning how to talk first, I guess. No matter, it'll all even out eventually. Look at Victoria and Nicholas: they were born seven years apart but now they're the same age.

More on aging: did my ears deceive me, or did Nicholas refer to Noah as being 15 years old? FYI: the actor who is now playing him is 20 and looks every bit of it. I've never seen a beefier looking 15 year old. The kid must be on steroids. And forget about Noah and his friends - where are all the security guards and FBI agents? Three teenaged boys are able to sneak into the Newman backyard with nobody noticing? And there's a fully stocked minibar out there? Maybe security and FBI were all drunk.

Who are these new friends of Noah's, and more to the point, where the hell is Sam? You know, Sam is the one we've been hearing about for ages, the one Noah is forever spending the night with, the one he practically grew up with and spent more time with at his house than in his own multiple homes. And now that Noah is old enough to throw a pool party poor Sam doesn't even get an invite or a lousy beer? Wow what a sucky friend Noah is.

People have simply got to stop trying to tie Cassie's death to the issue of underage drinking, or drinking and driving. Cassie was not drinking, and Daniel was not driving. It's quite a stretch to say that Cassie's death was caused by underaged drinking - Daniel might have very well been sober and just asleep and she still probably would have tried to drive him home to show him how grown up she was. And there is absolutely no connection whatsoever between Cassie's death and drunk driving. I appreciate the fact that Cassie's death was tragic but turning it into a public service announcement or even a tale of caution just doesn't work. It wouldn't even make a good After School Special.

By the same token, there needs to be a rule that people can no longer refer to Neil raising Lily. Neil did not raise Lily, Drucilla took her to France when she was a baby and he only saw her once or twice until she came back as a teenager. I'm getting just as tired of hearing Neil say he raised Lily as I am of Nick and Victoria's imaginary shared childhood that never took place.

And finally, Nikki needs to stop calling herself Mrs. Victor Newman. Good God, the last time she saw Victor he told her he wished she were lying on a slab in the morgue. He's done everything short of kicking her in the head and spitting on her yet here she is, still chasing him halfway around the world and wringing her hands over him. And now she thinks Victor is dead? She should be so lucky.

We all should.
