At first glance it might seem that Noah's sixteenth
birthday party was the worst party ever, but
considering some of his past birthdays, this one
will probably be at the top of his list. Yeah, his
girlfriend got yelled at and kicked out of the
house, but on the upside he got a nice car out of
it. Now at least he and Eden will have a place to do
the nasty without stumbling into his entire family
at once.
I fail to see what good it does to forbid Noah from
seeing Eden when his parents turn right around and
let him go off on his own the very next second.
Where exactly do they think he's going to go? They
pay about as much attention to him as they do their
respective jobs. And Noah knows it; he's so brazen
he flaunts his defiance in public at Crimson Lights
every day of the week where he's sure to run into at
least one family member at any given moment. Heck,
Noah knows as much about his parents' whereabouts as
they do his. He told Eden he thought his parents
were at work, yet Sharon quit her job at Newman
Enterprises over a week ago.
Not that Sharon and Nick have much to go on in the
parenting department. It's not exactly a well known
skill in this town. Now that Billy is contemplating
fatherhood he's getting advice from about the worst
possible examples. There's Jack who never met a kid
he couldn't abandon quick enough. I was actually a
bit frightened for Cordelia while Jack was holding
her, I though he might ship her off to Vietnam or
call Diane to come and get her. And I had to laugh
when Jack said the baby had "his father's chin."
John Abbott's chin? Really? What does he mean,
covered in drool over some gold digger? Come to
think of it, that probably is what he meant.
Then there's Victor like he's some paragon of
parenting virtues. The two children he raised are
complete morons and the two he didn't raise are a
spoiled little brat and a guy in jail. That's not
exactly the kind of guy you want telling you what
it's like to be a father. And now, he's going to be
a father yet again? Will Victor still be
impregnating women ten years after he's dead? It's
nothing short of a miracle that this man pushing
seventy has gotten yet another woman knocked up even
when the woman in question is almost fifty.
Apparently, there are two things that never happen
in Genoa City: birth control and menopause.
And what the hell were Victor, Billy and Ashley
doing sitting around in Brad's house anyway? I don't
know about you but I rarely if ever go to my
enemies' houses. Colleen must be a better person
than I am because I would have told them all to get
the hell out. She certainly didn't do herself any
favors being so gracious since they all decided to
sit around and hang out there even after she left.
What's with the marriage marry-go-round on this
show? Men are proposing marriage before they've even
had a chance to call their lawyers and draw up
divorce papers. I feel so sorry for the county
clerk. He or she must have a hard time keeping up
with all the paperwork. At least the jewelers are
having a good year.
