I apologize for being late to the table on this past week’s DOOL episodes but I was participating in a historic election…you know voting Abe for Mayor. Sure, he was the only living candidate but wasn’t the voter turnout impressive? I mean, you had Hope, Bo, Roman, Lexie and Abe and even Stefano all sporting “I Voted” stickers. I’m glad the citizens of Salem take their civic responsibilities so seriously; it just goes to show that no matter how many times you come back from the dead, your voting rights will be reinstated.
With all the hoopla over the election, I am a little saddened by the Salem Jail’s Infirmary. I’m sorry, but that’s a class action law suit waiting to happen. I’m also somewhat surprised that the Dimera name doesn’t go as far as it used to in Salem. EJ needed a court order to free Nicole from her half-assed prison hospital nightmare? The same EJ that switched embryos, blackmailed Sami into sleeping with him and may or may not have killed a cop? EJ’s moral compass is about as wonky as the one that Sayid carries on Lost so I’m writing that off, but couldn’t he at least buy her a pillow from the commissary or something?
Then there’s Gaslight Fallon. I’m not sure which is creepier: Silk Stalkings carrying his 15-year-old daughter like his soap opera lover or Nick sitting at Melanie’s bed watching her sleep. For a more in-depth analysis of Nick’s turn to the darkside, check out Tripp’s site. I’ve read spoilers so I know where this story is headed, however, knowing how storylines get changed, I fully expect Nick to be in smeared clown makeup asking Hope if she’d like to see a magic trick by Christmas Eve.
Lastly, I would like to point out that in our ever changing world some things will always stay the same: Galen Gering will always have to protect, bicker and eventually fall in love with annoying and spoiled blondes.
As bad as DarthNick is, nothing upsets me more then seeing the return of GeniusMax and Nick actually going to him for help on his prototype. I’d rather watch Nick run around Salem wearing a reproduction Lizzie Bourdan dress and attacking people with an ax.
Sayid mention! How long until Lost starts?

Lost starts on Jan 21 baby, the countdown is on!!!
Ahem, sorry, I was overcome by Lost Love for a minute there. I’m glad you were so enthralled by Abe’s election as Salem’s new upstanding mayor. I love that he promptly named Bo the new commissioner, now the Brady’s own the entire town. Sigh. They’re more corrupt than Steffy is, why does nobody care about this?
I loved Steffy’s little voting sticker though, it just looked so out of place on him. Civic pride, rock it Stefano!
You think they might turn Nick into Clowndre? This frightens me mightily.

Can Stefano even vote? Is he a citizen? How is he a citizen but EJ was almost deported?
I think Nick will turn into a combination of Norman Bates, the Joker, Clowndre, and/or Liza Minelli.
Did I mention that I was over Mad Max?
