90210: SO SICK OF DONNA!
"Did anyone watch last night? I am SOOOOOO sick of Donna! I totally cannot believe she brushed off Irv, or whatever his name was, for Loserboy! I can't believe she had the guts to turn to him at dinner and ask him to leave when butthead came strolling in drunk as a skunk! If any of those boys at the table had been men, they would have picked him up and carried him back out onto the street where he belongs!! The pity party is way too old for Loserboy! DH and I are hoping they'll get rid of him soon!! " -April

PASSIONS: WHO'S THE FAKE?
"Hi! I read a spoiler on Dustin's page that someone in Harmony is going to be impersonated (or is already being impersonated). I wonder who it will be, and why. I'm clueless as to who it could be. Does anyone have any ideas? :-) " -MissyHOST
