  6. That's a great list and just think what interesting items you're going to add to it during the next 41 years?

    What is the difference between "erotic romance" & "lady porn" ?

  15. You have a Hawaiian Dance school of your own? Wow! If you weren't so far away from me, I'd come take classes for fun!

  16. You know the great thing about DOOL? You can not watch it for years and then one day you're home sick and you flip it on and NOTHING HAS CHANGED. Marlena is STILL IN MORTAL PERIL. The only thing to figure out is are Bo and Hope together but suffering through some heart-wrenching tragedy, or are they apart but working their way back together? I really do love the consistency.
