Caray, Caray!

Jajajaja Sylvia, you rock. I had the same weird feeling about the cenote scene, especially when Elisa pulled herself up by the mangrove roots to...show Paloma her butt? QTH was that?

Previews showed Damian running into the church to -- I don't know. Perform bodas interruptus? On the wrong bride? Guess we'll see.
 

Favorite lines:

- Fina will be home soon. [Tonia’s] happy at the news although I’m not sure why.

- Paloma recalls when they were kids and Gael threw a dirt clod at her. That was the moment she fell for the skinny kid in the baggy undies. Hmmph, that girl ain’t right.

- Put your towel on Dam, you’ll feel much better, I promise.

And the big finish:

- She says her heart used to beat for Gael but now it beats for popcorn...Good Lord she’s turned the waterworks on full blast, thus explaining why the cenote is always full.

And many, many others -- but I'll let everyone else play. ;}

 

Sylvia, this was a confusing episode on so many levels and I'm glad that you echoed many of my thoughts, especially: "it kinda feels like we’re going to get a little girl on girl action here". Was the scene originally written for Paloma and Gael and Elisa appeared as a last minute replacement? Color me confused.

In addition to what Blue Lass noted, my favorites were "There is a sick horse; any vets in the house?", "an embrace of the debauched" and "Stables, staff and secret cemetery included in price". Fantastic as always.

"odious Chente" indeed. What a heinous little monster. I fear for Braulio's safety although I am fervently hoping something will happen and Chente will come back to the light, if only for Tonia's sake. I still harbor a soft spot for her and have a seat for her on the patio at a table for two.

With so many anvils poised, my hope is that Horacio surfaces and saves Lupe who is in imminent danger.

Paloma is way too good for Gael. Rebuff his offer and raise your daughter on your own girl. You deserve much, much more.

Blue Lass, "Perform bodas interruptus? On the wrong bride?" had me laughing out loud.

Happy Friday all!

Diana



 

“No puede ser!” “Um, yes puede ser,” says doc, “you boinked her, right? You know what happens, right?” … I was not looking forward to Doc T having to give Gael a 101 lecture about monkeys and bees…

Paloma recalls when they were kids and Gael threw a dirt clod at her. That was the moment she fell for the skinny kid in the baggy undies. Hmmph, that girl ain’t right. … ROFLOL!!! Right!

“Be a good man and take responsibility.” (Lupe says ‘… that I raised you to be’)… except Loopy is speaking to a clueless triplet Gawl…

Dam sighs and says he imagines a wedding is just around the corner. “Most likely,” says Lupe, too distracted to notice yet another epic misunderstanding. The patio crowd starts throwing bananas at the screen. (INDEED!!! And the previews prove us right…)

The girls are now standing on the bank, their enhanced melons gleaming in the sun. … I swear these two chicks are going to start making out any second... For a moment there I thought the monkey squad was taking us to a very different place. <>

Not that he's actually going to do anything with the information.LOL!! true

Good Lord she’s turned the waterworks on full blast, thus explaining why the cenote is always full.< … hmmm! We have to market that then… along with the tostachos and chicken bouillon cubes>

Previews: Gael asks Paloma to marry him, Dam tells Alfie have to go to town to see Elisa marry Gael in person… he gets to the church, Gael not happy for the last minute drop-in guest, Paloma has such a thick lace veil on that Dam can’t tell who it is under it.

 

Was thinking I'll just stop watching this thing and read the recaps instead. Last night, I couldn't stomach most of the episode, but this morning I'm howling over your great recap. As a good Caray denizen, I think we need to share our recappers pain in being forced to watch and write about this, so I will continue to carry on with beanie and wine in hand.

I guess since we have been getting some shirtless scene lately, we had to endure the boobettes last night. That had to be one of the stupidest filler scenes I've ever witnessed in a TN. And yep, you weren't alone in thinking Pal and Elias were about to go where no man has gone before.

Well, Gab has his inside "man", and I use that term loosely, in the business. If that little dweeb burns down the business in his best copycat your daddy manner, he better go down with the flames or get a real tragic aftermath to justify his continued existence. That kid brings out the worst in me.

Do they not have a legal system to deal with these wills when someone dies? Rosendo's estate was large, so it was just left to take Alfi's word on things and that was it? Beanie imploding again.

Boy, such a romantic ending for Pal and Gael. Those previews--she's all decked out, smiling and happy, he looks like he's going to hurl. My blessings to the happy couple.
 

i can imagine that scene at the church:
Dam: stop the wedding! .. Gael, you can't marry her!!
Gael: Why? because that baby is yours?? I knew it!!! Tell me what i wanna hear and i will tap dance my way outahere YESTERDAY!!


 

Sylvia, by the way, thanks for taking this one for the team, if it were not for the debate, this would have been my ep to recap. .. yikes!! at least Cyn will have a great circus to recap over the weekend.
 

Cap'n Sylvia - My eternal gratitude to you for taking one for the team by watching the entire episode and gifting us with a recap that is far more interesting and entertaining than last night's episode. I've only FFWDed halfway thru my recording, and can't wait to FFWD thru the rest of it. My FFWD button is getting worn out.

Great snark in the recrap and great commentary here! Too much filler with the flashbacks.

What a shame that the one night Gabino does not have a killer headache, Carmina does.

Gael is probably hoping that Paloma won't marry him, thus avoiding his own personal Boda de Odio.

bodas interruptus - Blue Lass BwaHahahahaaaa!!!

 

Oh, I don't think I'm the originator of "bodas interruptus" -- but it is the mot juste, isn't it?
 

P.S. I'm less worried about Lupe than I was about Ramona -- you know that in telenovelaspeak, "I'm leaving town tomorrow" means "someone's going to off me and no one will notice for ages."
 

BL - but who would want to hurt Ramona?
 

Well, I understand her horse is a little cranky. :D
 

daisynjay, you have me AND my 3yo grandson chuckling with this one...
Boy, such a romantic ending for Pal and Gael. Those previews--she's all decked out, smiling and happy, he looks like he's going to hurl. My blessings to the happy couple.
BL, death by cranky horse? LOL!! good one!

 

If Gael moved to a house in town... where is Amadeus? did he leave it behind at church patio?
Horses in this show are there and aren't there, then are there again... at leisure... last night they were MENTIONED.
 

Sylvia, I will come back later to savor your delicious recap but for now just wanted to note:

THE NEXT EPISODE IS ON MONDAY -- or that's what they said after the show. And my cable guide shows a 2-hour "Eva" for tonight.

Anyone have different info?
 

Ah, Sylvia...once again you have spun comedic gold out of straw.

"I'm not going to cry" she weeps.

"...their enhanced melons gleaming in the sun."

"Elis, only slightly annoyed at being interrupted..."

and probably everybody's favorite:


"Good Lord she’s turned the waterworks on full blast, thus explaining why the cenote is always full."

What a gem! I'll probably watch this, but hopefully I'll be hearing your sardonic voice in my head all the while they're prattling on. Thanks Sylvia. You always deliver!


 

Good morning all, and thank you for your terrific comments. I'm so sorry I didn't see the avances.

Blue Lass, could it be bodus interruptus incorrectus? Or is it incorrectiam?

Diana, yes this was a confusing episode. For a moment, at the cemetery, I thought we were going into horror mode. Then with Chente being all leery and smirky and quasi-diabolical I thought it might be slapstick. Then we had the girls acting sexy in the water. Meanwhile Gael kept lumbering around town fighting with everyone. I was so confused!

daisynjay, doris and marta, thank you for noting that this was a very boring episode. I kind of did feel like I was taking one for the team. Ugh. So disconnected and silly and WEIRD.

JudyB, be sure to flex your FF finger. You're going to need it, lol!

So what do y'all think? Is Hacienda "Arango" a steal at over 3 million dollars? The estate does have a very nice patio. Just sayin'.
 

BODUS INTERRUPTUS CATTYWUMPUS
 

Sylvia- I really don't know how you managed to find so much humor in this dull and dim episode.

I'm glad I'm not the only who thought I had somehow stumbled on to SkineMax with that cenote scene. WTH?! It was such a useless scene, and it did not make me feel like Elisa and Pal are these great friends who just lost their way for a bit. They are both terrible friends. Wouldn't want either one as my friend.

Gael really needed to be slugged last night. I can't believe Pal is going to accept that jerk after all the terrible things he has said to and about her.

 

BL, BODUS INTERRUPTUS CATTYWUMPUS it is!

Vivi, yep and he said all those terrible things to EVERYONE in town. What happened to that sweet little kid with the dirt clod? Oh. Never mind.

I kept having these visions of Useless Chente trying over and voer to get Braulio, but of course Wile E. Coyote style nothing works and Chente ends up with a bandaged head, crutches, hand stuck in the habanero processor, etc. But hey, Charred Chente in a fire works for me too.


 

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Sylvia, this is hilarious! My favorites have all been noted but I did love as well "She says her heart used to beat for Gael but now it beats for popcorn".

And of course, "I'm not going to cry" she weeps.

I do wonder -- are we dealing with another "epic misunderstanding" or is it that Lupe, sans soutane, and with a RED neckerchief, is finally getting a chance to let loose his inner bitch. Let's have some fun and get prissy-mouth all bent out of shape again by letting him think Elisa is marrying Gael. Bwahahaha.

I adore últimas semanas -- anything CAN and usually DOES happen! It's the stupidity play-offs. What's not to love?
 

Gael deserved everything Ramona said to him last night. Does anyone think he will survive the story?

For him not to would be a punishment Guadalupe doesn't deserve.

Paloma should not marry him despite my feelings about single motherhood.

If anyone who recaps this episode has some specific Karmageddon ideas please e-mail them to me. Limit them to the villains, Florencia, and Guadalupe. I am planning to post the poll on Monday.
 

Syvlia you continue to amaze and entertain in spite of inane drivel! There was a glitch in my DVR so I missed this but I feel you covered it and took one for the team. Thanks. And loved your Wile E Coyote take on Chente's comeuppance.

I'm still at the table where we boo this upcoming wedding. Aren't weddings like these happen at the start of the TN so then people can find their true love. What a mess!

Vivi - SkineMax was my ROTFLOL moment this pm, thanks.

NM - My schedule (DirecTV) also says there is no Absimo; 2 hours of Eva.




 

What we learned last night:

Hacienda Arango only has 3 bedrooms.

Damian's birthday is in either January, October, November or December (using the American date system) or is the 1st or 10-19th of the month (using the other system) (first number Lupe punched was the number 1)

There would be no reason for the courts NOT to give control of Rosendo's estate to Alfonsina...she was his wife at the time of his death. He had only 1 recognized child, Damian, who was underaged. If she went to the court and said "Rosendo didn't have a will," I don't see why the couldn't accept that, since she was his widow.

Even if Lupe went to the court at the time and said "Alfie burnt up the will" Alfonsina & Damian were Rosendo's only official survivors...no one knew about any others and I doubt Lupe would have told about Ingrid's existence even though he knew Gael was Rosie's child too...but he couldn't reveal that b/c of confession.

Even if the court put out a notice of "If you are Rosendo Arango's descendant present yourself to the court," since Ingrid had left town she wouldn't have seen it. You can bet your bottom dollar that if Ingrid had seen such a notice she would have stepped forth quicker than Gael switched from Elisa to Paloma as a choice of bride.



 

I'll join that table Karen. There's nothing positive I feel on this wedding. The fact that they have made this painfully clear that Gael does not love Pal, and that she is almost obsessed with him, just makes for one scary thought of what kind of marriage this will be. If they try to play it that suddenly he will have a light bulb of true love for Pal go off the minute the baby is born, I'll hurl. What an awful message again to put out there. Sorry kids, it most likely won't work that way. Will he adore the kid, absolutely, will he passionately love his wife, most likely not. And that poor child will grow up knowing that. Kids are smart little cookies.Gael needs to step up and take responsibility, financially and as an active father, but I've never been a fan that that HAS to mean marriage as well.

I guess because these TN's are often centered around strict Catholic communities, that's supposed to be the way it plays out to be right and proper when this scenario happens.
 

Spiffing recap, Cap'n. So much better than the show. Aside from Loopy's discovery of the will, that was all filler, wasn't it?

I thought exactly the same thing about the romantic swimming scene in the cenote. QTH? I mean they could have gone swimming without making it seem that way.

So, I think our crowd of young dimwits should just complete the round robin. Elisa should marry Enrique, Florencia and Gael should get together, and Paloma and Dam should pair up. No past history, no hurt feelings, they all live happily ever after.
 

"Fluffy better not show her hairy face around these parts!" OMG hilarious, Sylvia! So many funny lines--many already quoted. I don't know how you do it! So glad you commented on the Girls Gone Wild scene because that was just weird.

And was it just me or were some sparks flying between Padre Lupe (call me Guadalupe) and Tonia?! I thought they even got a little sexy music in their kitchen scene and thought, oh please no--tell me we're not going THERE!?

I know it's corny, and Fluffy is stealing a page right from a Harlequin romance, but I kinda like the Dam Fake out with Paloma being the bride instead of Elisa. With the loose lips in Ermita I can't believe Dam Stoopid doesn't know about the pregnancy, the marriage, etc. and guess what Dam Redundant? Emily Post says its bad manners to crash your brothers wedding twice in a row!

Thanks a million, Sylvia! You are genius!

Katy
 

Thanks for taking one for the team, Sylvia. Lot's of filler memories and repeat story lines that aren't advancing the plot.

I'm with many of you who wondered what was going to happen at the cenote when Elisa and Paloma stripped down to swim. Not that I ever watch pornos, but that looked like the beginning scene for one.

So little Gab is back in action. All Big Gab has to do is kill a couple people and he can keep getting action.
 

Paloma is a girl (versus a woman) who has no business bringing a child into the world. I hate this character. I hate her neediness and her insistence upon forcing a man who has openly stated he has no use for her to form a relationship with her. In short, she is STUPID. Maybe she and that ugly looking hayseed, Gael, really do belong with each other, but I pity the poor child.

Have any of these dopes in this story even wondered about Ingrid's whereabouts? Not that anyone cares, mind you, but have any of them even asked or do they have more pressing things on their minds...like eating chips and dips?

T
 

T- Remember how long it took for anyone to ask about Kenia's disappearance? And she was a minor! Both Kenia and Ingrid would only really have Gael who would miss/search for them. And we all know he has his head too far up his (or Elisa's) a** to be bothered about the disappearance of his women-folk.
 

Sylvia - NEVER do you ruin the moment! What a fine recap for this odd episode.

How in the heck did you find out Hacienda Arango de San Diego Kutz was for sale? Thanks for giving us that link. Is that Alfi I see sitting there all lonely in the 3rd picture?

I actually enjoyed the cenote scene. It was the girls' version of circling the fire hydrants in a wee-wee contest. I am glad they are good with each other. They are both such dingbats. "Pregnant Paloma and her concave belly..." was an excellent line.

How funny when Paloma said she wanted to be strong like Elisa!
Vivi asked me about my new meme/avatar/profile pic, whatever we are calling it these days over on AB. I told her I put it up because it reminded me of Elisa. She may say she doesn't want to cry, but we've been teased with that before.

Comcast, also, says no Abismo.

Rosemary la Otra
 

Re: the disappearance of women-folk, I wonder if Dam forgot that he had stumbled upon a curious shallow grave right before Gab gave him that Dam ding on the head. Why hasn't he gone back to investigate? Hopefully its just that he's been too busy with his dam madre, and will eventually get around to it.
 

Cher Capitan:

Talk about making somthing from nothing...Your recap is excellent and this epi was really just dreadful. Honestly, as NM said, it is hard to imagine HOW the show could get more stupid but Fluffy et al could hit some new random keys and all hell could break loose.

Alfonsina is too damn smug for me. Someone tell her she is a peon.Someone tell her she only has three bedrooms. Someone tell her that if Elisa has Dam's kid, the cousins Arango will one day own the Hacienda. That may be how Alfonsina finally dies...Please no one call Doc Tovar when she keels over. That man can cure anything but heartbreak.

I love the Hacienda San Diego. Sylvia, I had not yet read the recap when I sent you the Real Estate precis. Two crazed minds, working in tandem. Big smile. I am telling you, as a second home for the Caray mates, it would be a real treat. We just need to add a couple of dozen bedrooms. I wonder why is has so few...Oh, well, it sits on 40 hectares, should be easy to expand.

Garcias a ti, Cap'n, for writing this fine recap and keeping the ball rolling through Ultimas Semanas.

Anybody have an idea for an ending date? With all these preemptions, it is sort of hard to tell.

EJ
 

Yeah, Vivi...even the Kenia disappearance has been handled poorly.

Darn...I just CANNOT stand that Paloma. She's got to be the most pathetic character I've ever seen (and that ain't many) in a TN. Elisa is getting on my last nerve, too. Yeah...she's a big time CEO, alright.

T
 

UA,
For him(Gael) not to (survive the FIN) would be a punishment Guadalupe doesn't deserve.
well, not if Lupe goes first. (and i DON'T want that to happen, for the record)

 

I just can't see how they're going to wiggle out of the fact that Ramona, who sees all and knows all, has said that Gael will NEVER get over Elisa...
 

Yeah well maybe when Elisa pops out a prissy-mouthed, emotionally constipated baby, his ardor will cool a little.

Or maybe he'll be so overcome with remorse for his sins of the flesh that he will fulfill his true calling -- the priesthood. And he'll go all avuncular over the next generation.

Or maybe the father and son Mendoza punks will do him in and we'll be able to remember him fondly. And cause he's really rich, he'll get a great looking tombstone. Which apparently matters. To some people.
 

I *love* the idea of Gael taking the cloth, NM. What a great ending that would be!
 

And hypomanics make very charismatic preachers, Blue Lass.

Julia,
our crowd of young dimwits should just complete the round robin. Elisa should marry Enrique, Florencia and Gael should get together, and Paloma and Dam should pair up. No past history, no hurt feelings, they all live happily ever after.


I kind of like your train of thought, better to get to know each other clean from scratch without the baggage of lies and deception. Either that or they should vow not to procreate... they can all live happily ever after, girls going wild at the cenote and the boys going wild arm wrestling their anxieties around the procesadoras. and just not spread the genes... how is that?
Couples who are NOT expected to live happily ever after:
Pal/Gal
Eli/Dam

I think the older ones have much better possibilities... even Inmundo and BeGoneYa seem to know each other better than the young ones, as sad as it is to say that.
Lucio/Maru... Lolita/Braulio... those do have a chance at healthy relationships.

Priesthood for Gael... hmmmm not sure we would be doing a favor to the community he ends up in... he might tell the girls to marry the guy even without love, and tell the guys to force/deceive/trick the girl into marrying them. ...

Sylvia and EJ,... as long as the hacienda has a big patio for all of us, we can manage in a few bedrooms ... interesting!...
 

This comment has been removed by the author.
 

Blue Lass, yes he does.
 

just imagine, Gael as the priest marrying Elisa and Dam... with Loopy watching on.
 

would he be the first priest who wears long hair, plaid shirts and jeans on a daily basis?
 

if dead people become ghosts, i would say by the FIN, the ghost population density in LaErmita could be closing in on some India cities.
 

Novela Maven and Blue Lass:

"And hypomanics make very charismatic preachers, Blue Lass."

Boy isn't that the truth! You have to start with basic narcissism, though. It's a wonderful thing to be the center of your own universe.

Gael's self-absorption, rage and lack of empathy terrify me. Those are not the traits that make for good parenting.

EJ
 

Why are the tombstone makers so eager to work all night? Isn't working all day enough? Don't they need to sleep? Seems pretty insensitive of Lolita to expect them to do that. Or maybe they're planning to collect the overtime pay and go to sleep as soon as she's gone.
 

Sylvia, " Lupe guesses the [safe] combination on the first try, Damian’s birthday! Only Rene Casados could make such a ludicrous scene absolutely believable. I love him." So do I and I'm worried about his safety, Carmina and Gabino have him in their “sights,” can he survive their evil? Sylvia, thanks  for your incredible ability to spin straw into gold (Judy!) we couldn't survive this "tontaria" without our recappers.

Diana, make the Toña table for three, I'm in, she's made ordinary mistakes, she's not an evil person. Also, "Paloma is way too good for Gael. Rebuff his offer and raise your daughter on your own girl. You deserve much, much more." Yes, and thanks for a point well made. 

NM, "Yeah well maybe when Elisa pops out a prissy-mouthed, emotionally constipated baby, his ardor will cool a little." I love your adjectives, but I have to think that nothing will cool his ardor, he is without reason. 

Marta, "Priesthood for Gael... hmmmm not sure we would be doing a favor to the community he ends up in..." Yes, don't priests need to have some value system? 

EJ, "Gael's self-absorption, rage and lack of empathy terrify me. Those are not the traits that make for good parenting." I so agree! 

Long skirt, floral embroidered blouse, loop braids, loving smile.....my  El Fin costume!!!



 

I think I might dress as Kenia (QEPD) for the Por Fin party. Full skirt above the knees, worn high at the waist, with a tucked-in snug knit shirt and flats. Seems comfortable enough. Lace booty shorts just don't flatter my derriere. I guess I haven't done enough cenote swimming to get it in shape.
 

Ahoy all, just taking a break to check in with the Abismo crew. You guys are hilarious as I knew you would be. Three bedrooms are no problem, I'll just bring my deluxe tent.

Love everyone's comments. I'm using my phone to comment so forgive the brevity.
 

I'm just going to camp out in one of the lounge chairs by the pool. I don't need a bedroom.
 

I'm bedding down in an empty stall. The horses are better conversationalists. (Better than the characters, I mean -- not better than you guys!)
 

What a burn to Paloma if Gael turns toward the priesthood. Basically he did it with her twice and "Eh, no big whoop, nothing I can't live without".

I will wear 2 bandanas to the Fin. One on my hand, and one as a skirt.
 

Thanks for a very funny recap for a very wierd show! There are so many geat lines, and agree that the cenote scene was strange indeed.

This has turned into one hot mess. I'm currently pacing the patio looking for the table of "Are you kidding/isn't this over yet?" Gael is so "dead to me" with his attitude, and Paloma is simply pathetic. I hope that poor baby can do something with those parents, otherwise he/she's on their own.

Does anyone know the name of the song played during the "special" moments between characters like, Dam/Elisa on the beach, Padre/Gael at the alter, Doc/Paloma saying goodbye the other night, etc? I can't find it in the Credits.

I have Dish Ntwk and it has "Eva" for two hrs tonight AND next Friday too!!

kl
 

Test
 

kl, "Junto a Ti" is the usual music for special moments. It's by Alex Sirvent, who also wrote a lot of the incidental music, and is available on iTunes etc. If it isn't that, it might be some little piece that isn't a full-length song and is just for this show.
 

Man, the shows not on tonight?! I'd rather watch it than 2 hours of Eva.

Great recap of last nights episode. First I wanna say I've had it up to here with Chente and his stupidness. I had to change the channel during his scenes with Braulio. Someone needs to smack that kid upside the head.

I thought the cenote scene was weird at first since Elisa and Paloma just stared at each other and didn't talk until they got out of the water.

I also don't get why Lupe lied to Damian about E and G still planning to get married. Oh well...can't wait to see Dam crash the wedding.
--TF
 

Julia and kl, is that the We Are The Champions music you are talking about? "I've paid my dues..."







 

TF, Lupe didn't lie. He and Dumb Dam misunderstood each other. Estupidos.
 

Sylvia, I loved your "sheesh" response from Gael. That is just about what he said! His response to even Lupe knowing about the baby was priceless!

So, if it was not the will that Alfi was burning, could it have been Gael's birth certificate?
 

Ooooh , R LA O, great idea!! Or maybe her botox invoice.
 

Thanks Julia & Rosemary for the help! I'm going to go visit the iTunes store...

If you were the Padre, now ex-Padre, wouldn't you be singing like a canary about now? He told his Superior that he was staying to right some wrongs from the past--well?
I don't want to see Gabino or boy wonder Chente, hurt him--the anvils over them can't be big enough.

kl
 

I'm currently pacing the patio looking for the table of "Are you kidding/isn't this over yet?"
Yes! THIS is the table I'm looking for, also. Let's start one.

EJ - With some more pre-empted nights, this nightmare could end on Halloween. Trick or treat.

RlaO - That music always sounds, to me, like a rip-off of "We are the Champions". Written by Freddie Mercury(QEPD) of Queen, no?

 

Doris, thank you for joining me at the Mesa de Bastante.

Yes, that's the ear worm song I'm referring to. It's been playing in my head for a month now. Does QEPD = RIP?
 

RlaO - Yes. 'Que En Paz Descanse.'*
*(note the subjunctive mood/tense) I learned it over at telenovela-world forums.
Better Spanish through forums. ;-)
 

Copying Sandy in TN:
Test
 

What I am trying to do is get on the "contributors" list. Yes, I am feeling needy and want to belong.

Could it be that one cannot see her own name on the list or am I being black-balled due to inappropriate comments?
 

Ha ha. We don't know the MEANING of "inappropriate."
 

I know! I was very appropriate before I met you all.

Just to clarify...the list I am talking about is not on the sidebar. It is a list that shows up on my phone below the comments. It has everyone's name on there under the heading "Contributors". Everyone's but mine. Really, it doesn't matter. I was bored when I started trying to figure it out, but now my husband wants to take me out to dinner (so I'll be even more bored). LOL Shhhhhhh.

 

RlaO - you mean you can post from your phone? Is it a Droid or iPhone? Sandy in TN and I cannot post anymore, from our iPhones. I got thru once, a week or two ago, and can NOT for the life of me remember how I did that.

"I know! I was very appropriate before I met you all. "
ROFLOL!!!!!
Telenovela-watching has a certain effect on us. The exxxtttteeeennnnssssiiiioooomnnnnnnsssss have a worse effect.
;-)
 

Absolutely true, Doris. We would be PERFECTLY NORMAL if it weren't for the extensions. The devil-monkeys made us do it.
 

Doris, I have a MyTouch and I can still post from it. Thank goodness as I don't have computer time at work. I have to sneak in a comment here and there.
 

I can post from my Droid because I am doing it right now! It's the only way I can follow comments from my boat.
 

For me, it depends on the boat:

It doesn't work when I try to post from the kayak because I need my hands free and I'm afraid of dropping the phone in the river.

When I'm on the Ship of Fools, however brilliant my posting sounds in my head, it shows up on the blog sounding like something Fluffy might have flung at the wall.

When I'm on the Love Boat, all my comments get stuck in the morass of the unsavory mating habits of the Inter-Ermitents.

And when I'm in deep waters on the Ship of State and trying to sound important, the comments just end up picking nits. But Fluffy says that's a good thing ...
 

"Something Fluffy might have flung at the wall." Ja ja. I think Fluffy's going to be with us for the long haul.
 

NM, mwahaha...I love how your mind works. You're such a clever lady. But I fear I will have the Love Boat theme in my head all day.
 

OH THANKS SYLVIA. THANKS A LOT.
 

BL,

Fluffy's meteoric rise at Televisa -- he is the first albino gorilla ever to be named head writer -- is even more remarkable when you consider his early experience as a wash-out at the Yerkes Primate Language Research Facility where he never got past "Fluffy banana happy. More. More. More."(1)

(1)Private communication EJ Sonoma, 5 Oct. '12.
 

I'm not sure "melon cleavage happy more more more" *is* all that much farther along, although presumably he is getting paid now.
 

I know something that will get it out of your head:
I've paid my dues
Time after time

 

Ah...that's better.
 

LOL we have to go all the way back to friday night comments to see a comment directly related to a character in the story... that is how you know this show is out of control..
btw, i just saw Mark T sing (guitar on hand, his actual voice) on PVAA and it is not anything to write home about... i like it better when he is lip-singing.
 

RlaO, great picture... has happened to me countless times.
 

Thanks, Marta! Like I said earlier, it's happened to us all, but only Elisa would cry like that over it.

How funny about us going all weekend without talking about the characters.

Does re-visualizing Mark Tacher's shower pic count?

So true!!! What is really embarrassing is that I encouraged Sandy in TN to watch this thing during the early episodes. Who knew it would take such a very. wrong. turn.?

Ah, well, I am ready for another dose of tontería tonight.

 

Cathyx, if you need someone to post the recap for you you can email. martaivett@yahoo.com. just let me know here, i usually dont have my email open all the time.

Rosemary la Otra, if you get to see the peopleenespanol mag about the hombre mas sexy (WilliamLevy on cover) there is a much better more natural and casual photo of mark T... not quite as flashy as the shower pix but i like this one better... i always love to see him in v-necks, either t's or sweaters. and his face looks more relaxed and yummy.
