IN OUR OPINION

From Danielle McClure
So, I started writing about how I didn’t get GL today. Vanessa staging an "intervention" for Bill because he's in bad-boy mode, but not drunk-driving Billy? However, as I watched, the episode grew on me. The Cross Creek scene was priceless and Bill's sarcastic, embittered rant upon realizing that everyone in his family had gathered to confront him — and not Billy — was fabulous. MORE

Afternoon Delight

A small number of astute readers have noticed that every AS THE WORLD TURNS synopsis I write has a "theme" based around an actor or author or whatever I'm into in that particular week, reflected in the subheads and caption (and almost entirely for my own amusement). The one in the 9/11 issue was in recognition of my eager anticipation of the Foo Fighters' Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace, which was released later that month, so the subheads were all songs from that CD including "Long Road To Ruin."

The go-karts I'm driving go about 90 m.p.h., but when your butt's an inch-and-a-half off the ground and there's no suspension — so the car's completely stiff — you feel you're going 140. It's fantastic!"
