Boomer, you seriously need to be in TV. Hurry up girlfriend.

Mint,

A dance hall girl indeed. I like it.

Sam,

Thanks. How well I know. I am eventually sending my picture to all of you here and you will see what I mean. But I don't know how soon I will get the technology figured out.

Re: I'm Rusty Eden
 

I looked into the Chatters talk earlier and saw that the girls were talking about this soap opera that I wrote last winter when I was huddled here in cold, dreary, snowy Ohio. I don't know what happened to me. I just started writing the thing. And it was fun. And it nearly got the best of me. And I tried to pawn the job off on Barefoot. And I tried to pawn the job off on Sam. But they were way too smart to take it. Finally I just had to stop it. Then somebody bumped it later, but I never got my groove back.

When I saw them talking about it over there in Chatters tonight, I looked back and found it. I remembered I had called it "I'm Rusty Eden" because that is my soap opera name.

Anyway, when I found it, I read it all again, from the top, took me about half an hour. And while I was reading it, I started to laugh. I was not laughing out of ego because I wrote it. I was laughing because when I wrote the thing, I did not know any of you. And now I do. Well, sort of. I mean I have never seen any of you but we have been together for awhile. And here we still are.

So now, when I see you with your soap opera names, getting your parts, it is fun because I sort of know you.

Brightspot is the heroine. She is Cinderella Central. A big part of the plot revolves around her. There are lots of other regulars in it. And there are only a couple who have not been seen for a long time.

I started with just a little word game. I had no idea that soap was going to come out of me. So, after a request, and at risk of looking like I have a big ego (not), I just went "bump" in the night to deliver to you, in case you are really bored and want to read it, my soap, from "The Winter of My Discontent." I give you, "I'm Rusty Eden."

Re: I'm Rusty Eden
 

Would love to read it!!!! Pass it along GF!

Re: I'm Rusty Eden
 

No no no no no! Not this thread again Boomer.
:yikes: :yikes: :yikes: :yikes: :yikes: :yikes: :yikes: :yikes: :yikes: :yikes: :yikes: :yikes: :yikes: :yikes:

Please, admin, someone, anyone, delete this entire thread before it gets out of hand. Boomer will go absolutely zonkers on it and Fumar will --- well, y'all pretty much know what Fumar will do.

With all the new people on board, this thing may well take on an existence of its own :yikes: It's Alive :yikes: and we'll never kill it. It must be stopped now while we still can. A stake thru the heart, a silver bullet, a holy water bidet, a garlic diadem, whatever it take. Stop this thread!

Your mileage may vary.

Re: I'm Rusty Eden
 

Yeah Munc,

I did not even know you back then. I finally managed to capture you, Skippy Madison, in print, where you were not very nice to poor Skippy Garfield (Barb) who had to finally change his name to Skuppy to try to forget. So you might be embarrassed about that behaviour.

And you were stalked throughout the whole thing by Dusty Springfield.

I realize that you were probably traumatized by my portrayal of you. And that you still may be having nightmares about Dusty Springfield following you everywhere and singing to you constantly.

But you know what I really think is going on.

I think you don't want anybody to see that part where YOU KEPT INSISTING that it was not your soap opera name but that it was your PORN STAR name!!! Really!!

So anyway, Munc, here it is. A blast from the past, Munc, a blast from the past.

Re: I'm Rusty Eden
 

I am.................drum roll please............Mittens Hanford. Sweetie is Inky Grandon. Helene is Nephrititi Fogelson.

Re: I'm Rusty Eden
 

Damn, damn, damn! I swore I'd stay away from this thread.

But Boomer, you have got to do something with Nephrititi Fogelson. That name just begs for a great backstory. I have a few slightly perverted ideas, but I'll leave this to the sick genius of your fertile imagination.

Re: I'm Rusty Eden
 

Munc.

It's early and I haven't had my coffee yet, but do we remember you from "Debbie Does Dallas"?

Re: I'm Rusty Eden
 

No, but I had a "small" part in Candy Does Kansas City

Re: I'm Rusty Eden
 

Munc, Munc,

Are you OK???

Your green light is on.

Were you afraid to go to sleep because of those nightmares about Dusty Springfield again?

Oh, Munc, are you OK?? 6:38 AM. THAT's AM!! And you were writing.

Are you OK??

Or is it all good? Good for me at least. Is it that finally, all my dreams have come true?Have I finally found the perfect person to take over the soap?

Are those characters leaving my head to come live in yours, Munc?

Oh Munc, that would be wonderful. Who better??? You would have a chance to redeem those days of. . .well, you know. Those days with the name you can't forget. And the life you can't put behind you.

Munc, Is it about those "Kansas City Women"? Are they still calling you? Are they living in TV??? Do they know about and want to keep talking, talking, talking about your career??? And all you want to do is play golf?

Oh, Munc, I give you here, a new career. You could take up the torch of the soap. You could keep it a soap, not even a "Showtime" soap. Just a soap that P&G would be proud to sponsor.

gg has put some wonderful names here. There is an embezzler and the newspaper editor has joined us. Those names are here now from gracie.

But Munc, Nephrititi Fogelson!!! OH MUNC. She just set up shop right inside your brain. I know it. And she will go with you everywhere you go until you write her story.

Oh Munc, please help. You know you can behave yourself if you try. Well, sort of.

And I am going to be gone all day today. Really. I do leave my house fairly often actually.

So take it, Munc. A whole new career awaits. You, Munc, the daytime soap writer.

Sweet dreams, Munc.
