The Obsession Connection
by a very bizarre individual

I love Dean. I love him so much and he is so hot. Okay, before anyone starts throwing things and calling me obsessive, I would like to just remind all of you (well, the females) that HE IS HOT.

Perhaps my hormones have gotten the best of me. I'm a teenager, so sue me. Don't worry, I'm not about to leave home, hitchhike to Dean's house, stand outside his door and sing showtunes until he comes out and agrees to marry me. You know why I wouldn't do that? Because that's too easy. I like things complicated. However, my complicated plan is so brilliant that I can not even share it with my fellow FOLCs for fear of one of them stealing my genius idea and getting to Dean ahead of me. Just imagine my surprise when I follow through with my plan, only to find that DeanCainLover678@internet.com has married my man, they have six kids and three dogs, and 2.4 cats.

I didn't always think Dean was cute. When L&C started, I was impartial. I guess I just didn't notice one way or the other. When Jack came on the show, I was like "Hello, Docta", and developed an immediate crush on the little rascal. Little. Ha. He's older than I am. But age aside, I thought Jack was all that. I saw his movies. I worshiped the four episodes he appeared in. I acted out his scenes. I wore black in honor of him.

Michael Landes. I still think he's the cutest Jimmy. I've seen his movies, too. In fact, the other day I started to watch "Please God, I'm Only 17" which I had taped right after "House of Luthor". Well, the first scene of this movie is pretty gross. Blood. Ew. So I turned it off. Then he's in the Danielle Steel Titanic movie where Titanic sinks 3 minutes after it hits the iceberg. And he was on "Union Square" although I didn't watch that very often. That Scardino guy scares me, even to this day.

Justin Whalin. He, too, has an after-school special, and he is just soooo cute. When I found out he was going to be the new Jimmy, I was like "Justin who?" but I got used to him pretty quickly. I love how Justin's Jimmy rode a motorcycle and had a cool car, although how he could afford a car when he could barely pay the rent is something I'm curious about.

Add to the gorgeous regulars a series of very fine-looking guest-stars: Antonio Sabato Jr., Steve Young, Sean Kanan, Mark Kiely, Jack Wagner, Bruce Campbell, Billy Dean, and the nameless FINE looking copy boy who I seek to this day (who is that man? I must get his phone number). This show's not just good...it's grrrrrrrrrreat! (Quote: Tony the Tiger)

(Okay, okay, this was a lame column, I'll admit, but I meant every word. Oh yeah...and check out this site, it's really cool: Destination: Metropolis (http://www.angelfire.com/ny/loisclark/index.html). :)

Until next time...bye.
