Square jawed, swaggering alpha males are plentiful on daytime. They are quick to come crashing through windows to save a damsel in distress. Heroism comes natural to them, but not so much for lanky, verbose, squeamish tech geek Spinelli, but then, that's what makes him so brave. "Grasshopper" is not a thrill seeker. He'd probably be very happy to sip orange soda and play World of Warcraft, but instead he often places himself in danger out of loyalty to his friends and partner in (sometimes) fighting crime, Maxie. The poor guy lost his Spleen, for goodness sake, when mobsters ran him down but they can't scare off Spinelli, who remains as sweet smart and resolute to protect the folks he cares about. Here's a nickname he needs to try on for size: Lionheart. Picture showed says GH's Spinelli(Bradford Anderson) is soap's most unlikely champion.

Allow Me to (Re)Introduce Myself
Mic check, one two, one two!
Well hello there. I am Dahlia, the NEWEST contributor of this here blog. But I might be better known as NamiV. I'm a regular over at the Spinelli LJ, as well as one of the administrators of one of Bradford's messageboards, Defy Convention. And now, I am here, infiltrating Penny's blog, bringing my own brand of mayhem, snark, and wackiness!
*plops down and puts feet up on couch*
You see that? My feet up? That's mean I'm getting comfortable!
Still don't know who I am? Hmm. Okay. Well, I'm the one who made this:
I'm also the one responsible for these:

And of course these:

Yea.
A little more about me...I have watched GH since birth. My granny watched it, as did my mom. Spinelli is a fave of mine because, well, quirky and smart is something I know well. Besides that, hey, I'm a grad student, I'm not THAT exciting!
But I do like long walks on the beach. Reading in front of a roaring fire. Making smores. TPing houses. Burning meals. The standard weekend stuff that everyone does, right? Heh...right? Hmm.
Ok, that's it! I'm glad to be contributing here. So give me a warm welcome because I'm like Diddy. I'm not goin nowhere...I'm not...goin' nowhere... I can't be stopped now...cuz I'm Nami for life! And I'm out! *drops the mic*

What's your Spinelli backstory?
We sit here two years and a month since Spinelli first graced our screens. The new characters since Spinelli all have more of a backstory then he has. (Dante who has never been on screen has more of a backstory)We still get nothing. All we know was he was raised by Gram, he has some parent abandonment issues, he likes to read and is good with technology. Lastly he was at PCU when he became dragged into the mob world.
The thing is we are getting closer to when Bradford's contract expires. It is my belief that at this point we will have to wait for back story if and when he resigns.
So I thought it may be fun to see what other people have in the back of thier heads for a Spinelli's Story.
Here is my stab..
His Gram is not his gram. She is not even related to him. She him because one or both of his parents wanted to protect him from some force. Maybe he is a Casadine perhaps Alexis's born after Sam. Maybe he is Nik's brother? What ever the news the circumstances of his birth and finding out about them will not bring Spinelli joy.
or on another note.
His gram is his Gram His mother died when he was young and his father was an unrelated to PC deadbeat. He was not the only baby though. He has a twin sister. She was raised by the dead beats family and while he knew about her he didn't' get the chance to really benefit from having her in his life as a child. She is very successful. A prodigy like him but she had all the benefits of a supportive family.

Spinelli November 17-21
Most of the time when Bradford does soemthing really amazing on General Hospital I take the time to make a big wonderful post about how awesome it was. But, words really don't do justice to how awesome it was to see Spinelli take on a really dramatic role last week. I hope to see more of it. It's a travesty I can't write down all my thoughts right now but the Holidays have made me busy...I think a few posts down there is a feature from SoapNet about how great the scenes were. I think that sums it up pretty nicely.
So, this is a short but heartfelt "Kudos, Bradford".

Soapnet "Performer of the Week"
Performer of the Week: Bradford Anderson as Damain Spinelli. Bradford is a highlight in any week, just because Spinelli is such a change-of-pace character. The verbose, jumpy counterpoint to the intense calm of someone like Jason Morgan. But Bradford got to play a bunch of different colors for Spinelli this week. His reaction to finding Maxie unconscious in the park was shockingly real -- the decision to drop the "Fair Maximista" talk and just call out "Maxie" was fantastic. And the rest of the week, spent working Spinelli up into a murderous rage, then playing his ultimate inability to do anything with it, and finally his shame that he couldn't -- Spinelli covered a lot of emotional real estate this week. Plus, his face-off with Max at midweek was an epic confrontation between Port Charles's twitchiest liar and its most dunderheaded bodyguard. Loved it.
