Why oh Why..
click here to continue....
Well sweet wonderful amazing Georgie dies next Friday (12-14 to 12-17) it is more senseless then Emily. Senseless. I am looking forward for what I am sure will be wonderfully acted scenes by Bradford. I don't want want Georgie to die..
Sweet Blind Spinelli
Georgie who's heart belongs to the clueless Spinelli brings over chicken noodle soup. Georgie tells Spinelli of the healthy properties of chicken noodle soup.
Spinelli is so very honored that Georgie thought so much to bring him soup. He was so excited that Spinelli caused Georgie to spill the soup all over herself.
Georgie ends up in a robe that came from the pink room while her clothes were cleaned.

Bits and pieces around the net on Jaspin events..
I'm going to post the bits and pieces about Bradford from various posts concerning the three events:-/
From Snoopygubs at "The Canvas"..
Then our dear, dear Bradford. Who, before this weekend I was just in love with like everyone else, but now I just want to keep him safe and protected from the big, bad world. He was AMAZING. First, he did in fact crawl and then dance up the aisle, and when he got on stage, Steve commanded him to dance, which he did happily. Then he took out the pre-written questions, dropping all his change and a tic-tac on the floor, which had Steve dying with laughter...
And the first question he read was, Would you marry Elizabeth and raise Jake? He paused, looked up, cocked his head to the side and said, "Yeah!" and moved the paper to the back. Steve went to grab the paper and the understanding dawned on Bradford and he was like, "Oh...that was totally YOUR question, wasn't it?"
Next question: Would Steve ever hang out with Bradford? Steve said no way...and then said they played Madden all the time. Then Steve told the funniest story about when they were shooting Night Shift and it was his birthday. He had a late shoot and he called Bradford to crash at his place. Bradford broke in, "I was SOOO scared!" and Steve said, "I get there and he offers me a futon! I haven't even seen a futon since 1987!"
Bradford's question: Do you really like orange soda and potato chips? "Orange soda is delicious. And potato chips are nutritious and fortifying." Someone brought up the soda and chips and he totally opened the soda and chugged half of it while Steve looked on in disgust.
Someone asked if Bradford liked L.A. and he said it was comfortable, but it doesn't have any charm. He loves his New England...
Then the Georgie questions. Bradford really seems to love working with Lindze and he said, "I would like to luuuuuuv her." Then he said that the soup scene was all one take, because they didn't want to douse poor Lindze with soup five times. They also didn't realize that the soup would almost make it like a wet t-shirt contest, and that she almost lost it cracking up when it actually happened.
They talked about traveling together, and this, to me, was one of the funniest parts of the show. Bradford was acting all enamored of Steve and started shifting closer to him. "Steve has this proximity issue...but when we're on a plane, he can't get away from me." Steve started shoving him, laughing the whole time. He grabbed the mike from him and told the funniest story about being bumped up to business class...but the flight attendant clearly didn't really want them there. Bradford said he felt like he was standing in front of his fifth grade teacher, getting in trouble, and then Steve asked why then did he go to the buffet and stuff as many muffins as he could into his shirt? Then he said that they all fell out later when they were trying to recline in their seats, and Bradford said happily, "I almost slept with Steve Burton!" and started hopping around like a girl.
Derk then told his side of the story, saying that he went to the red carpet room, and someone asked him if he was a member. He said no, but how much did it cost? He was taking his money out when the woman told him $500. He said he put the money right back in his pocket and said, "I'll be at the bar, where all this only costs $25."
Do they ad lib lines? Sometimes, they try to. Did Tony Geary get up on purpose from the chair at the beginning? Bradford tried to answer and Steve cut him off, saying, "You're not even in that picture!" and Bradford hung his head while Steve laughed at him.
Irene then asked her question: Would Jason ever let Spinelli babysit the kids? Bradford got all excited, gripped the mike harder and opened his mouth - "Ye-" and Steve yanked it out of his hands and was like, "No. No way. Never. Not in a million years!" People started awwwing, and he was like, "Would you let him babysit your kids? He's never babysitting Jake! He sits in his room drinking all day...and don't tell me it's just orange soda. No one who drinks soda acts like that!"
Bradford's question: Who decided on the hair? He used to wear it like that in college, and it kind of stuck. He said when he read about Spinelli's character being quirky, and that the writers wanted to laugh when the first saw their Spinelli, he decided to wear it like that and when he walked in, Guza and Phelps cracked up at him. Steve lost it here, pretty amused that the two head honchos pretty much laughed at Bradford before even hearing the kid open his mouth.
What was Spinelli thinking during the Heffner girls' scenes? Bradford's face went slack and he started shaking his leg. Then he mumbled something about baseball and Steve grabbed the mike from him.
courtesy Jill at the Canvas:
* Jill asked Steve what he thought of Bradford's comment from SSW that Spinelli should hook up with Elizabeth, and Steve got this 'You have GOT to be kidding me' look on his face, and he turned to Bradford and said "Are you trying to take my woman?!"
from brooksrbetter TC:
*Steve said that he can't imagine any other actor playing Spinelli, because it would be really bad. Derk and Steve both complimented BA on his abiliity to get through all the lines. Derk said just reading Spinelli's lines in the script scares him, and Steve said that he (SB) is such a good actor he only ACTS like he knows what Spinelli is saying because he really doesn't. Bradford says that he likes to learn his lines the morning of shooting so that he is fresh when he says them and can be in the moment. Sometimes, that way, things can just "occur" and not feel over rehearsed.
Bradford was asked about California, which he responded was "comfortable." But doesn't have the charm of New England and the east coast. Although he was being generous because where we were yesterday on the east coast was pretty much charm-free. He added that palm trees are pretty cool.
*****
Sound like most had fun. Admittedly there were some complaints about how large the event was (New Jersey had 400 people) but I imagine anything attached to Steve Burton would be that way. It's good for Bradford is that his star is rising---(he was the hottest ticket at SSW) but bad for his fans is that he's probably not going to be as accessible as he use to be.

Happy Thanksgiving!!
Before I get ready to go gorge myself....
I don't know about anyone else, but yesterday's show encompassed everything I use to love about GH.
Family, friends, love, romance, vets and newbies mixed together, plus history remembered.
G-Spin were so cute. I love that Maxie/Georgie were talking about Felicia's abandonment, with the outlooks that fit their personalities. Maxie--the cynical and negative, Georgie- positive and always trying to see the good in people.
It was nice to see Ned and Dillon, even though it was tragic circumstance and the final scene with Nik/Em was a tear jerker.
BTW, if you feel strongly about something on GH, you can leave comments on the comment line:
323-671-4583 (for the shy, it's an answering machine. ;) )
Without giving away spoilers, it seems that Spin is at a bit of a crossroads right now. You might want to let TPTB know what you'd like to see for the character.

Lake Elsinore Event with Bradford, Julie and Josh
Given the reviews of SSW and how large crowds are known to get, we weren't sure what to expect as far as turnout was concerned, so we arrived at 9:30 (the event was from 1:00-3:00). The place was deserted! So we ended up shopping for awhile. Finally, around 10:30, the tent and table went up and a few people started to show. We finally decided to get in line around 11:30, just to be on the safe side.
We met a lot of nice people in line, several of whom had been to SSW and had missed the chance to meet Bradford due to his enormous popularity at the event. Needless to say, they were excited to see him.
Everyone knew that the three of them were inside of an empty storefront right beside the signing area as they had a "dressing room for performers only" sign on the door. The windows were blacked out with paint, so you couldn't see in. Everytime the door opened, a hundred cameras would go up in the air to snap a picture, but alas, it was security guards or other people. The crowd kept giving a collective "awwwww" everytime it wasn't them. LOL! It was kind of hilarious after awhile! At one point, Bradford's lovely girlfriend, Angela, emerged and walked off down the mall, apparently to shop.
Finally at about 1:03, the door opened and out came the three.
Josh, Julie and Bradford sat right next to each other, and each had a stack of photos.
Each of them signed one for you when you approached the table, but you weren't allowed to stay very long and chat, which was a bummer. There was fear in the crowd for awhile because the security guards said that if the crowd got too big, we wouldn't be allowed to take photos with them. By the time my daughter and I left, the line was VERY long, so they probably did stop photos at some point as the event was only for two hours, but we DID get a picture!
What can I tell you about Bradford that you haven't already heard? He could NOT have been sweeter if he tried! He recognized me right away with the biggest smile, and although I think they were supposed to stay seated and sign autographs only, he leaned across the table and gave me and my daughter both a hug. We chatted very briefly as the security guards were really hurrying things along. Julie was just STUNNING in person, and so sweet. Bradford asked me if I had a little "thingie" over the "e" in my name (Rene'), and I said I did. Julie had already signed her photo for me, as had Josh, and Julie yells out "you do? Oh!" So she takes the photo back to add the accent mark. I told her it was no big deal, and she smiles and says, "yes it is!" Then she took Josh's photo and added it on as well. Josh leans over to and says, "what did I do wrong?" and she says, "nothing, I fixed it for you." It was cute.
Poor Josh. He looked shy and kind of shell shocked by the whole thing. He seems very sweet, and I'm kind of sorry now I didn't speak to him more, but they really didn't give you much time at all.
I was definitely glad we went so that we at least had a brief moment to say hi to Bradford.
**Personal note - I've only lived in California for eight months, so I have to tell you - standing in line and actually sweating in the direct sun (it was about 78), surrounded by people in shorts and tank tops in front of a HUGE Christmas tree, surrounded by palm trees and just FOUR DAYS from Thanksgiving was something else! Wonderful but kind of contradictory! My relatives are freezing in parkas back home! LOL!

ether show the Jackel some respect or shut the hell up
I heart Nadine.
---
In other GH News..
OMG Guza Killed Emily
A personal favorite Emily momment
When ya going to give The Jackal a try?
She reiterates what she's said previously, that she roots for the underdog and wishes that TPTB would give them a go, although it's probably best this way. Lulu would most likely break his heart, and everyone would hate her. "We just make out in fantasy".
Bradford tells fans that if he can't have Lulu, he wants to be with Elizabeth. Becky raises her hands like TOUCHDOWN!!!!
Julie is introduced and pouts about Elizabeth. The hijinks start when Julie says "Hell, yeah" Lulu would be jealous if Spin got a girlfriend.
