    Yikes! Bidding is over a thousand bucks and nine days to go! You're over the limit for what I can get away with without my husband saying "what the hell did you buy???? You're NEVER even gonna to wear those shoes! I bet you can't even walk in them. Walk. Yes, now, WALK! You look like a moron and you're gonna kill yourself in those, enjoy the five hundred dollar blisters, idiot. And change your emergency contact info for when they cart you off to the emergency room in the wahmbulance, cause if it's a shoe-related injury, I ain't comin to get you."

    @momof3wildkids: Oh really...hmm...another couple of days and it'll be down into my price range! And if I got another copy of her book (bargain bin, natch), I could strap them to my feet and wear them as shoes (just anticipating the "what the hell are you going to do with that? You're not even going to read it, and if you are, it's just going to make you angry. At least you can wear a pair of expensive shoes. Idiot." rant).

    wow I remember my ex girlfriend LOVING to write so called "slam books"

    She had hundreds of them in high school she passed along to friends, I even found some of them long after we broke up.

    I never knew she stole the idea from someone else. For some reason I always assumed she was deranged enough to have thought of it herself.

    This is a farce.

    The best Sarah Palin book in the world is to buy Going Rouge, replace the dust jacket with Going Rogue and convincing her to sign it. Then you return Going Rogue and put Going Rouge on eBay.

    Back in the 90's, I loved General Hospital. I used to rush home after school to watch it. I remember when Tony kidnapped baby Michael. Tony assumed that he was Michael's father. Tony was Bobbi's husband, and Carly's mother. Bobbi got pregnant with Carly when she was a teenage prostitute and gave her up for adoption. Determined to ruin her life, Carly tracked her down and slept with her husband Tony. Tony and Bobbi had recently lost their daughter B.J. after she was injured in a bus crash. In one of the most heartbreaking episodes, Tony decided to give Maxie B.J.'s heart. Michael was actually A.J.'s, Jason's brother, kid. But A.J. was a drunk so they passed the kid off as Jason's. Now Michael is all grown up and murdering people! His parents must be so proud.

    Just a few corrections: Claudia is/was Sonny's current wife, not his ex; Carly and Jason also used to be lovers and Michael is actually Jason's brother's (AJ) son, but he was a drunk degenerate so Carly and Jason passed Michael off as his. Then she married Sonny and he adopted Michael.

    And Franco appears to be headed for making out with Maxie, a blonde sprite with great fashion sense who is the step-daughter of the town's police commissioner and is dating/almost married Jason's right-hand man, Spinelli.

    Don't ask how I know.

    This sucks! Not that Franco is on a soap. This move I lurve. That he's on a bullshitty ABC soap. Pffftttt. CBS soaps have always been the level best. What? Did he pick this one because of Rick Springfield and Antonio Sabato Jr. or some such? I'd have much preferred see him in Genoa City on the Young and the Restless.
