One Life to Live was a beloved American soap opera that aired on the ABC network from 1968, to 2013. Created by Agnes Nixon, the show was known for its innovative storytelling and progressive themes, tackling issues such as racism, social class, and LGBTQ+ representation.
Set in the fictional town of Llanview, Pennsylvania, One Life to Live revolved around the lives, loves, and scandals of the diverse residents of the fictional town. From the wealthy Lords to the working-class Buchanans, the show depicted the intertwining lives of its characters with drama, romance, and suspense.
Several actors performed on the One Life to Live cast for 20 years or more including Erika Slezak, Michael Storm, Robert S. Woods, Philip Carey, and Robin Strasser.
Other famous actors got their start on One Life to Live before moving on to fame, including Tommy Lee Jones, Laurence Fishburne, Judith Light, Phylicia Rashad, Blair Underwood, Marcia Cross, Roma Downey, Ryan Phillippe and Hayden Panettiere.
During it’s more than 40-year run, the show has had many, many cast members.
Here, we look back at some of our favorite One Life to Live cast members.
Marcia Cross as Kate Sanders One Life to Live Cast
We know and love Marcia Cross for her roles as Dr. Kimberly Shaw in Melrose Place and Bree Van de Kamp in Desperate Housewives, but did you know she also spent time as archaeologist Kate Sanders on One Life to Live between 1986 and 1988.
Do you remember Cross on the show? Let’s refresh your memory. Cross, as Kate Sanders, was marrying the man of her dreams, Cord Roberts, when his "dead" wife busted in on the ceremony to announce she was alive and pregnant with his baby. And yes, this is why we love soaps—it’s all about the plot twists. You never know what’s going to happen next.

Richard Grieco as Rick Gardner
Richard Grieco was one of the hottest actors in the ‘90s playing roles in 21 Jump Street and the spinoff Booker. But before he made it big on those shows he was playing the part of adorable Rick Gardner on the One Life to Live cast from 1986 to 1987.
Bryan Cranston as Dean Stella One Life to Live Cast
You may remember Bryan Cranston from his role mixing up trouble on Breaking Bad — a series he won several awards for. But before he became a household name he was on, you guessed it, the One Life to Live cast. He was on the soap opera in 1985 playing the role of Dean Stella. This actor has a diverse range, in addition to soap operas and drug dramas, he has also appeared in Malcolm in the Middle, Baywatch, CHiPs and Touched by an Angel.

Laurence Fishburne as Josh Hall
We love Laurence Fishburne in The Matrix and Black-ish, but his acting chops were honed as a troubled teen on the One Life to Live cast. He aced the role as a young Josh Hall, a part he kept from 1973 to 1976.
Tommy Lee Jones Dr. Mark Toland One Life to Live Cast
Sure, you know Tommy Lee Jones from the Men in Black franchise and The Fugitive, but let’s go back in time to the 1970s where you’ll find him playing Dr. Mark Toland on One Life to Live cast. Before OLTL, he was cast in the movie Love Story, but he couldn’t find another role, so he took on the soap opera. He played Dr. Toland from 1971 to 1975. Of course, his star soon took off and he went on to be nominated for three Academy Awards.

Judith Light as Karen Wolek
We know Judith Light as Angela Bower, one of our favorite tv moms from Who's the Boss? We also know her as Claire Meade from Ugly Betty. Let’s not forget her roles in Transparent and as Judge Elizabeth Donnelly on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.

But before all of that, Light starred on OLTL as housewife Karen Wolek (who secretly works as a prostitute) from 1977 to 1983, ultimately leaving the show for her famous role in Who’s the Boss? Light earned two Daytime Emmy Awards for her role on OLTL.
Hayden Panettiere as Sarah One Life to Live Cast
We know and love Hayden Panettiere for her roles on Heroes and Nashville, but she got her acting start playing Sarah, daughter of Tina Lord and Cord Roberts, between 1994 and 1997. Do you remember her nickname on OLTL? Flash! Other tidbits you may recall? She was the flower girl for Todd and Blair's first wedding.
Ryan Phillippe as Billy Douglas
Do you remember a young Ryan Phillippe playing the groundbreaking gay character Billy Douglas on the OLTL? He was on the show from 1992-1993 and was one of the first gay teenagers on a daytime show—his coming out episode was considered controversial at the time. Phillippe went on to star in hit movies such as I Know What You Did Last Summer, Cruel Intentions and Crash, as well as the series MacGruber.

Kelly McGillis as Glenda Livingston One Life to Live Cast
Most people know Kelly McGillis from her break-out role in Top Gun, but it was her part playing Glenda Livingston in One Life to Live in 1984 that honed her acting chops.

Rainn Wilson as Casey Keegan
We love Rainn Wilson in Almost Famous and, his career-making role, playing Dwight Schrute in NBC's The Office. But he, too, took a turn on OLTL. It was back in 1997 and he was playing an aspiring standup comedian named Casey Keegan.

Blair Underwood as Bobby Blue One Life to Live Cast
Blair Underwood is known for many great roles including his portrayal in L.A. Law, The New Adventures of Old Christine and, of course, playing Miranda's doctor boyfriend Robert Leedson Sex and the City. But before all of that, from 1985 to 1986—just before he hit it big on L.A. Law—Underwood portrayed Bobby Blue on One Life to Live.

Elisabeth Röhm as Dorothy Hayes
Did you know that One Life to Live was Elisabeth Röhm first big acting break? She played the role of Dorothy Hayes on the show from 1997 to 1998. Ironically, she had an on-screen romance with Nathan Fillion's character, Joey. Rhmlater moved on to the role we all probably know her best for, ADA Serena Southerlyn on Law & Order.

Nathan Fillion as Joey Buchanan One Life to Live Cast
Before he was playing crime novelist Richard Castle on ABC's dramedy Castle, Nathan Fillion stirred up trouble as Joey Buchanan, son of the popular main character Victoria Lord. One of his more memorable stories was when he romanced a much older woman—his mother's nemesis.
His mom became so enraged that during a recurrence of her dissociative identity disorder, she kidnapped her son's lover and held her hostage until she promised to end the May-December romance. Makes sense, right? Fillion played the character of Joey Buchanan from 1994 to 1997, and he developed a very loyal fanbase.

Phylicia Rashad as Courtney Wright
Before her famous stint as Clair Hanks Huxtable on The Cosby Show, Phylicia Rashad played Courtney Wright from 1983 to 1984. Later, Rashad won a Tony for her performance in the acclaimed play A Raisin in the Sun. From soap opera to Broadway, now that’s something.

Jessica Morris has been turning heads since she first stepped onto the streets of Llanview, Pennsylvania as Jennifer Rappaport on One Life to Live. Since then, she’s built an illustrious career which includes appearances on CSI: NY, Lucifier, Rosewood, The Other Hef, and dozens more. Currently, she’s starring as Crystal Amhurst, a trophy wife who’s willing to do just about anything to get her husband’s attention, on the Daytime Emmy-nominated mini-series, Ladies of the Lake. Pop Culturalist caught up with Jessica to chat about the show and learned about her exciting new project.
PC: Tell us about Ladies of the Lake, your character, and what drew you to this project.
Jessica: When I first read the season one script for Ladies of the Lake, it reminded me a little of Desperate Housewives. A story of unhappy housewives told in a very fun and entertaining way. My character, Crystal, is quite good at keeping up appearances, while her world is falling apart around her. I was excited to play her so that I could show both sides of her. The side behind closed doors, and the one that the rest of the world sees. Also, producer Michael Caruso has an eye for details and a strong vision for all of his projects. I knew that he would make sure that everything from the set design to the wardrobe would be sophisticated and gorgeous.
PC: How did you prepare to step into Crystal’s shoes?
Jessica: I like to daydream as my characters sometimes. I thought about Crystal’s desires and challenges and found ways that I could personally relate to her core needs.
PC: As we head into season two, what can fans expect?
Jessica: They can expect this season to be darker, edgier and more action-packed.
PC: What are some of the major differences between season one and season two?
Jessica: Season one was more about introducing the characters and showing how the women really come together and emotionally connect. Season two is more about the fallout after the women commit their crimes.
PC: If you had to describe season two in five words, what would they be?
Jessica: Thrilling, exciting, fun, sexy, and mysterious.
PC: How has Crystal changed since we last seen her?
Jessica: She is stronger and more capable of speaking up for herself.
PC: Besides Ladies of the Lake, do you have any other upcoming projects that you can chat about?
Jessica: This fall, I have a thriller/horror coming out. I lead Tom Six’s (Director of The Human Centipede trilogy) The Onania Club, which is a very dark and shocking film. I look forward to its theatrical release. It has many societal messages that we are hoping will create a stir.
Pop Culturalist Speed Round
PC: Guilty pleasure TV show?
Jessica: The Handmaid’s Tale
PC: Guilty pleasure movie?
Jessica: Forrest Gump
PC: Favorite book?
Jessica: Many Lives, Many Masters

OLTL History 2001-2004
2001
Blair agreed to marry Todd but put a stop to his plans for a quick wedding and said she wanted to wait and get married in Llanview. Blair remained torn over her plans for a future with Todd and shared these fears with Kelly, who tried to warn Blair away from Todd.
Todd learned that Skye was really Rae's daughter but didn't share this news with anyone. After going to Rae for advice about Blair, she told him to give Blair an emotional gift to prove how he felt about her. Todd then presented Blair with a copy of the Bible page and she was thrilled to learn a secret that could shatter Skye's world.
Skye was released from jail after passing a lie detector test that John had arranged for. Skye wanted to get revenge against Todd and Blair and eventually forgave Max for not believing in her innocence. Max and Skye then teamed up to destroy Todd and Blair.
Todd and Blair vowed to get even with all who had wronged them. To that end, Todd and Blair told Skye that Rae had shot Max. Todd and Blair then told Renee that Max knew the identity of her real son and also told Asa that Max had been scamming him. Thrilled with the havoc they had created, Todd and Blair spent the night together and made love.
Nora was still determined to get the truth from Colin, who grew even more obsessed with her and even built a secret shrine to her in his home. Lindsay tried to warn Colin about Nora's true motives but his arrogance prevented him from believing her.
Viki was horrified when Ben was kidnapped before her eyes. As it turned out, Ben's abductor was Gina Russo, his first love and member of the Russo crime family. Gina was furious when Ben asked her to help him bring down Tim Rourke and her brother Tommy, but she later agreed to help him. Ben then returned home, much to Viki's relief and delight.
Melanie turned down Bo's marriage proposal for fear of having her secret about her father come to light. Melanie disappeared one day but Bo soon realized where she had gone and tracked her down. Bo told Melanie she could tell him her secret when she wanted to and she accepted his marriage proposal.
Rae convinced John to investigate her in Max's shooting after Todd and Blair accused Rae of the crime. By doing this, Rae hoped to create reasonable doubt for Skye. Rae also decided not to tell Skye that she was her mother.
Max and Skye set out to destroy Todd and Blair. To that end, Max drugged Blair and arranged for Todd to see him and Blair in bed together. Todd, however, had no idea that Blair was unconscious from the drugs and thought she had betrayed him on the night before their wedding.
On her wedding day, Blair walked down the aisle in front of her guests and was shocked by what happened next. Instead of saying "I do," Todd announced to everyone in the room that Blair had shot Max in the back! Blair was speechless by Todd's betrayal and couldn't fathom why he had done this. But Todd wasn't done yet! After exposing Blair's secret, Todd announced that Skye was really Rae's daughter and that Max wasn't the real Buchanan heir. Todd later told Renee that Ben was her son and Ben admitted that it was true.
Todd and Blair were both arrested and Blair didn't understand why Todd had betrayed her as she still had no idea about Max's manipulations. Still thinking Blair had committed the ultimate betrayal, Todd agreed to turn over incriminating evidence against Blair in exchange for no charges being brought against him.
Jennifer Rappaport came to Llanview from her Switzerland boarding school. Jennifer was a troubled girl who put misplaced trust in her evil Uncle Colin MacIver. When Jen was a little girl, Colin helped her when she caught her mother Lindsay having an affair. Colin held this over Jen's head, convincing her she was responsible for her parents' divorce. Colin tormented Jen and even made a pass at her.
Roseanne was thrilled when Antonio asked her to move in with him. Roseanne's happiness was short-lived, however, after Antonio learned that she had deliberately withheld an urgent message for him from Sophia. As it turned out, Sophia was in desperate need of back up and Roseanne had jeopardized Sophia's life by failing to give Antonio the message. Antonio was furious with Roseanne and told her to pack up and leave. Antonio then cleared up the misunderstanding with Sophia and explained he never would have ignored her call for help.
After Antonio dumped Roseanne she was heartbroken. She got drunk, and devious Dr. Colin MacIver took advantage of her. The two ended up sleeping together. Roseanne was horrified when she realized what she'd done. Soon after, Antonio forgave Roseanne for not giving him Sophia's message, and they got their relationship back into gear again. Roseanne feared that if she told him about Colin then he would leave her again. When Roseanne finally told him the truth about Colin, Antonio was upset, but forgave her again.
Antonio and Sophia made it their mission to nail R.J. for all his crimes. Sophia suspected that Roseanne, who took over as receptionist at the Llanview police station, was tipping off career criminal RJ Gannon. Sophia tried to prove Roseanne was a mole, and even worked with former rival Kelly to do so.
Colin continued his campaign of threats and blackmail and added Roseanne to his list when he learned she was RJ's mole at the police station. Colin also took great delight in torturing Jen and had spent years making her feel responsible for Sam and Lindsay's divorce.
Nora's quest to expose Lindsay's role in her kidnapping led her closer to Colin, who promised to tell Nora everything if she made love with him. Nora was repulsed by Colin and made it clear she would never love him. This sent Colin even more over the edge and his behavior became increasingly dangerous.
Colin told Will the truth about Lindsay's role in Nora's kidnapping and he angrily confronted his mother. Although disgusted by what she had done, Will agreed that he wouldn't turn Lindsay over to the police. Jessica began to suspect that Will was keeping a secret but he couldn't bring himself to confide in her.
Viki was immediately suspicious of Gina Russo and she had every right to be. When Viki confronted Gina about her "contacts" and need to spend time alone with Ben, Gina admitted that she wanted Ben back for herself! A strong Viki, however, remained confident that nothing would ever come between her and Ben.
Jen stole a fake ID from Break Bar and ended up almost dying from alcohol poisoning after drinking alone in the park. Cristian and Skye took Jen to the hospital and she recovered, but Will was determined to find out where she had gotten the fake ID. A short time later, Jessica discovered that Cristian was the person selling fake IDs to minors but didn't share this news with Will.
Max blackmailed Asa by threatening to tell the police that Asa had put the hit out on Ben. Blair forced Max to confess that he had drugged her and made Todd believe they had slept together. Before Blair could get to Todd, the police arrested her for shooting Max based on evidence Todd gave them. Todd got wind of Max's setup from Nora and scared Max into telling him the truth. Todd, deciding he and Blair belonged together, tried unsuccessfully to get the evidence back from the police. Todd planted a bomb in Bo's office, but Bo and Melanie managed to diffuse it before it went off. Meanwhile, Blair realized she still loved Todd, but followed Sam's advice and told Todd their life together was over.
Colin summoned his enemies to a "secrets and lies" dinner party and announced he was leaving for Maui. Colin also revealed that he was prompted to make the call that ended Sam and Lindsay's marriage after receiving a call from frightened Jen, who had witnessed Lindsay's affair. Later that night, Colin lay in wait for Nora to return home. Colin injected Nora with a mystery drug and planned to abduct her, but was confronted by an unseen visitor. Sam later rescued Nora from Colin's, but Colin was nowhere to be found. Bo began to investigate Colin's disappearance.
Viki discovered that Gina was Rourke's boss and that she was setting up the attempts on Ben's life to get him back. Gina forced Viki to leave Ben and lie that she was on a speaking tour by threatening to kill Jessica. Gina locked Viki in a room in her basement and convinced Ben to stay with her for his own protection.
While in the woods, Jessica and Will stumbled upon Colin's body. Jessica reluctantly went along with Will, Jen, and Cristian when they decided to rebury the body and keep quiet about their discovery. Jessica returned to the gravesite to retrieve a charm she lost and was spotted by Bo. Jessica panicked when Bo decided to have the grave dug up, but all the police found was a scarecrow. The foursome wondered what had happened to Colin's body, which was actually in RJ's possession.
Sophia and Antonio received an anonymous tip and raided RJ's warehouse, but instead of finding stolen goods, they found a box with a murdered Colin MacIver's body in it. During the raid, Sophia's back was injured and she was in need of intense physical therapy to regain full use of her legs. Sophia was sent to rehab in Minnesota and she made Kelly promise to uncover Roseanne as the mole and make her pay.
Kelly confronted Roseanne about this information, and forced her to tell Antonio the truth. When Roseanne told Antonio the truth he was very mad. He didn't tell anyone, but forced Roseanne to resign from the police station, and ended their relationship once and for all.
Jen took a liking to Cristian Vega, who stood by her when she was a suspect in Colin's murder.
After Todd failed to steal the evidence against Blair, her case was bound over for trial. With Kelly's help, Blair concocted a plan to get Max on her side. Blair lied to Max that she was pregnant with his child. Todd found out about the baby before Blair could clue him in to her scheme. Max forced Blair to take a pregnancy test at the hospital, and Blair was stunned when the test came back positive.
Ben grew suspicious about Viki's whereabouts, so Gina had Viki call him and say she had left town to get away from him. Ben learned from Gina that Asa had put the hit on him. To keep Ben close, Gina lied that Rourke was still gunning for him after Ben learned Asa called off the hit. Viki grew more agitated during her confinement and eventually turned into Niki Smith.
Determined to meet her father, Skye followed Rae to Port Charles.
Max learned from Renee that Asa was planning to remarry Alex. He rushed to the ceremony but was shocked when he discovered Gabrielle Medina was Asa's new bride. Gabrielle revealed that Asa had legally adopted their son Al who had disowned Max as his father. But Asa's marriage to Gabrielle was just part of an elaborate revenge plot against Max.
The forensics report proved that Melanie's hair matched the samples found at Colin's house. She confessed to killing Colin and also admitted to murdering her own father. Lanie was arrested but Nora and Bo didn't believe she committed the crime. Lanie returned Bo's engagement ring and called off the wedding. Meanwhile, Will concealed Colin's passport behind a picture in his apartment. Jen admitted to Will that she witnessed something that night at Colin's. In a shocking turn of events, Sam confessed to killing Colin. Jen and Cristian grew closer but she was unable to move forward because of the secrets she was keeping about Colin's murder. Lindsay spirited Jen into staying quiet and tried to keep her away from Cristian.
Bo suspected that Melanie was keeping a secret but she beseeched him to just let the matter drop. Bo, however, had no intention of just letting Melanie walk out of his life and became determined to learn why she was pushing him away. Bo found out that Melanie assisted her father's wish to die when he was in a prolonged battle with cancer, and decided that Melanie was right in her decision to help her father die with dignity. However, Melanie became paranoid when Bo wasn't in a rush to get married anymore, and Lindsay encouraged Melanie to pretend she was dying so that Bo would marry her. Once Bo learned of Melanie's duplicity, he ended their relationship, and Melanie moved to Seattle.
Over time, Renee was able to bring Asa and Ben together for a rare dinner at The Palace, but both men were too stubborn to openly accept each other.
Gina held Viki captive in her basement. However, Viki's alters began emerging and Gina was introduced to "Jean Randolph", "Tommy", and "Niki". Ben became suspicious after learning that Gina questioned Jessica about Viki's DID. "Jean" convinced Gina that she could impersonate Viki in order to break-up with Ben. After passing Gina's test, "Jean" met Ben at crossroads and told him it was over. Ben finally understood that Viki was sending him clues and he realized that Gina was behind Viki's disappearance. Ben turned the tables on Gina and demanded to know where Viki was. Gina's thugs had already taken Viki up to the cliff where Gina planned to get rid of her. Ben arrived as a struggle broke out between Gina and Viki. Ben intervened but not before Gina rendered Viki unconscious with a hit to the head. Ben tried to coax the gun away from Gina but she accidentally fell off the cliff. Viki and Ben reunited and Viki revealed that the emergence of her alters was just a plot so she could escape.
In a quest to destroy Blair, Todd evicted her and humiliated her with a slanderous headline in The Sun. Blair learned she was pregnant with Todd's baby but decided to pass it off as Max's when Todd vowed to gain sole custody of Starr. Blair awaited Max's arrival at her hearing but instead Todd showed up to testify. Todd revealed Blair's crazy actions on the stand. The judge rendered her temporarily insane and remanded her to St. Ann's. Blair figured out that Todd's testimony was actually a ploy to prevent her from going to jail.
To keep Max from knowing when she gave birth, Blair fled to Mexico to have her baby in secret. Todd followed, and actually delivered the child he thought was Max's! Todd was disgusted at the sight of Max's child and ordered the midwife, Paloma, to get rid of the child. Paloma refused, so Todd took the child away and tried to give it to some nuns at the local airport.
David Vickers saw Todd give the baby away and told the nuns that Todd was his “life partner” and got the baby back. He brought the boy to the hacienda where Todd and Blair were staying, and Todd paid David a hefty sum to “get rid of the baby." Meanwhile, Todd lied to a devastated Blair that the baby had died, and brought Blair back to Llanview away from Paloma, who still knew the truth. Believing the baby was dead, Blair told Max that the baby was Todd's after all.
Blair learned that it would be virtually impossible for her to regain custody of Starr. Todd propositioned Blair to move in to the penthouse in order for her to be close to Starr. Todd and Blair sparred over the living arrangements, and they ultimately decided that it would make more sense to live at Dorian's place. Todd and Blair continued to argue, but agreed to sleep in the same bed for Starr's sake.

Rae was warned from Hawaii that Keri and Antonio were snooping around the University, and Rae flew to Hawaii to cover her tracks.

Rae had been treating Asa Buchanan in court-appointed therapy sessions. Rae challenged Asa, and argued that Asa felt weak and powerless. Asa fought back, telling Rae about all the dirty, illegal dealings that he took part in to amass his fortune. Rae was disgusted, but she couldn't tell the authorities because of doctor-patient confidentiality. Asa was thrilled when he uncovered the truth, and turned Rae's dark secret into a media blitz, encouraging all of Llanview to sue Rae for every penny she was worth!
Overwhelmed with lawsuits and negative media attention, Rae decided to fight back, and decided to use her taped therapy session with Asa to blackmail Asa into marriage! Rae was no longer bound by doctor-patient confidentiality, since she wasn't a licensed doctor, and threatened to expose Asa for all his illegal dealings if he didn't marry her, pay all her legal bills, and settle all her lawsuits.

Ben arrived on the scene with the police, and was accidentally shot by officer Antonio Vega. Viki emerged again, just in time to watch Ben slip into a seemingly irreversable coma. Viki transferred Ben to a clinic in Switzerland that could best care for him, and took sessions with Susannah Hanen to get to the bottom of Niki's secret.
Mollie was the daughter of the Governor, and since Lindsay saved a young woman's life, Lindsay was pardoned from her sentence and set free.

Viki was relieved to learn that Todd had not been killed by Mitch as it had appeared months earlier, but Viki was not happy to learn that Todd had reconstructive surgery and wormed his way back into Blair's life under the identity of Walker Laurence, Mitch's brother! Kevin exposed Walker to Viki, but Viki had already discovered the truth. At his mother's behest, Kevin didn't reveal the truth to Blair, but this brought Kevin and Todd's age-old rivalry to a whole new level.
Viki was uncertain about moving on with her life while Ben was still comatose, but ultimately decided that returning to the dating world was what Ben would have wanted for her. Viki dated Governor Brooks just long enough to inspire Dorian's jealousy.
Dorian went so far as to stow away on Governor Brooks' private plane while Viki was on board! Dorian had discovered that Walker was really Todd, and was desperate to warn Blair! Both Viki and Dorian regretted Dorian's decision to stow away when the plane crashed, leaving Viki and Dorian at the mercy of a life-threatening avalanche! Viki and Dorian proved what survivors they were when they made it home with only minor injuries. Dorian owed her rescue to Todd, and didn't reveal Walker's true identity, hoping that Blair would figure it out herself, before it was too late.
Jen carried on with Rex and one of his hooker friends, Karen Reeder, much to the dismay of Natalie, who felt her brothers, Joey and Rex, could do better than Jen. When Jen passed out in a hotel bathroom during one of their binges, Jen awoke and stumbled out of the bathroom to discover Karen had been murdered by the Music Box Killer!
Dorian's Aunt Betsy came to Llanview and the rich and bitter woman revealed to Dorian that she was dying, and wanted to leave her $30 million fortune to a female Cramer who had never been married or had children. When no single female Cramers met her standards, Betsy decided to leave everything to Paul, on the condition that he never married or had children.
What Paul didn't want anyone to know was that months earlier, whenPaul returned to the states, he arrived in San Diego where he met a flirtatious and beautiful young woman, Arabella "Babe" Carey. After one drunken night, the two got married! Both woke up the next day and realized their mistake, with Paul giving Babe annulment papers to file.
Paul was shocked when Babe re-entered his life asking him to keep his mouth shut if anyone asked questions about her past. Babe had since gotten married to JR Chandler of Pine Valley, and did not want anyone to find out what she soon confessed to Paul -- they were still married! Babe never filed the annulment papers, meaning her marriage to JR was invalid and she was still married to Paul! Desperate to keep this secret (for it would invalidate him in Aunt Betsy's will), Paul and Babe came to a mutual agreement.
Jen had Rex help conceal her whereabouts and wipe the crime scene clean of any trace of her, but when the police eventually caught up to her to question her about Karen's death, the truth proved too devastating to Jen and Joey's marriage, and they decided to divorce.
Paul allowed himself to be charmed by Babe, who wanted Paul to ensure that paternity test results for her unborn child read JR Chandler as the father. With Babe's promise of sex and money, Paul agreed to have the results say JR was the father, but never told Babe whether he actually had to change the results or whether JR was naturally the father.
It seemed that attending dance classes was a common thread amongst all the victims of the Music Box Killer. As Madison Kensington was the next to die at the hands of the Music Box Killer, suspicion first fell on Marcie's brother Ron Walsh, who was an experienced dancer.
Gabrielle was insecure, worrying that the increasing time Bo and Nora were spending together both at work and with Matthew would drive Bo to leave her and reunite with Nora, and would go to out of town bars, where she had run-ins with Troy, who had apparently been getting overnight passes from Statesville.
Bo and Nora worked together as Bo tried to find the Music Box Killer, who had been targeting young women in Llanview. Once Gabrielle admitted that she'd seen Troy, Bo and Nora suspected that Troy had been on the killing spree.
Jessica began investigating sexual harrassment on the Llanview University campus and began consulting with Professor Stephen Haver, a well-respected professor on staff. Jessica developed a friendship with Professor Haver, which provided Jessica with great support when the Music Box Killer began targeting young women on campus at the University.
Marcie started her own radio show on the Llanview University radio station, called "Bridging the Gap", which focused on both sides of controversial topics and social issues.
Joey moved away to London, and Rex was certain that he finally had Jen back, but Jen didn't want Rex anymore -- she wanted something better for her life.
Bo eased Gabrielle's fears by proposing marriage! Bo and Gabrielle were happily engaged, until their joy was cut short by the Music Box Killer, who claimed Gabrielle's life on New Years Eve 2004.
Blair finally put the pieces together and knew that Walker was really Todd, and Blair got back at him by sleeping with Kevin on New Years Eve of 2004!
2004
Blair taunted Todd with the fact that she bedded Kevin, and the confrontation exploded into a sexual encounter of their own. Blair claimed Todd raped her, while Todd maintained it was consensual, but rough, sex. Kevin stood by Blair as Blair had Todd arrested and their marriage annulled.
In January 2004, Kevin resigned from the office of Lieutenant Governor, and Kelly was able to hang onto Kevin long enough to get pregnant! Kelly was willing to brave the pregnancy and play it safe, and Kevin and Kelly soon reunited. Kelly forgave Kevin for his indiscretion with Blair, yet still had reservations about the time Kevin and Blair would be spending together since Kevin hired Blair to work for him at the Banner!
River tracked Adriana to Puerto Rico and snuck her back into Llanview.
Dorian and David refused to see all of Betsy's money go to Paul and began investigating his past in order to disqualify him as a contender for Betsy's heir. Their search led them to Pine Valley's Adam Chandler, whose new daughter-in-law, Babe, had a past with Paul. Adam was as eager to do away with Babe as Dorian and David were to do away with Paul, and Adam promised to help them in any way he could, so long as Dorian reciprocated.
Paul allowed himself to be charmed by Babe, who wanted Paul to ensure that paternity test results for her unborn child read JR Chandler as the father. With Babe's promise of sex and money, Paul agreed to have the results say JR was the father, but never told Babe whether he actually had to change the results or whether JR was naturally the father.
As Plan B, Dorian schemed with David to prove Adriana Colon, goddaughter to her longtime friend Carlotta Vega, was her long lost daughter in an effort to get the money. To that effect, Dorian told Adriana that she was her biological mother and invited her to move into La Boulaie.
Troy was apprehended, but insisted that he wasn't the killer, he was being framed by "the doctor"!
Starr enlisted young Matthew Hanen Rappaport in her plan to help her father escape police custody. Todd was being taken in a police van with the unbalanced, captured fugitive Troy MacIver. Starr had Matthew lay down in the road and pretend he was ill, while Starr flagged down the police van carrying her father. As Matthew worked as a sufficient diversion, Starr tried to set her father free, but Todd refused to run away. In a shocking turn of events, Troy used the diversion to make his escape, and ended up taking Matthew hostage!
Eventually, Matthew was rescued, and a remorseful Starr apologized to Matthew's parents, Bo and Nora Buchanan, for endangering Matthew's life. Starr and Matthew would not spend time together again for a long while, and Starr faced charges for what she'd done. Starr was sentenced to community service at Llanview Hospital, under her Aunt Viki Davidson's supervision.
Roxy's life slowly turned around with the success of the Hair Haven, and Roxy kept busy by playing cupid to the lovelorn teens River Carpenter and Adriana Colon. Roxy's friendship with Nigel flourished, and she was his chief supporter in his decision to leave the servitude of Asa Buchanan and pursue his dream of running a hotel. Roxy has helped Nigel run his Angel Square Hotel, which became quite the popular hot spot for all the newcomers to Llanview.
Starr decided to initiate a non-violent protest, and went on a hunger strike to make her parents see the error of their ways, and to convince her mother to drop the charges against Todd. The hunger strike didn't last, once Todd convinced Starr to keep eating, and not punish her mother in such a way.
Daniel began pursuing Lindsay, as they found they had a lot in common when it came to parenting troubled kids, and having to bounce back after making major life mistakes.
Rex continued to work the Lindsay angle, asking woman of the world Lindsay to educate him on art, culture, and the finer things in life. It wasn't long before sparks ignited between Rex and Lindsay!
Rae resumed her work at Llanview University, and enjoyed comparing notes with Human Sexuality Professor Stephen Haver. Rae and Stephen's expertise was called upon by the Llanview Police Department when Bo Buchanan and FBI Agent John McBain needed a psychological profile on the Music Box Killer.
After a fight with Riley, Flash was attacked by the Music Box Killer and nearly died by strangulation. She survived the attack, but suffered throat damage, so Asa called Cord to spirit Flash away to London, where she could receive the attention of a specialist who would be able to tell if she'd ever be able to sing again. While grateful that Flash was alive, Riley sunk into a depression after Flash moved away.
RJ and Evangeline's relationship stumbled once again when Evangeline took on Todd Manning's defense in his charge of raping Blair. Despite his past history, Evangeline believed in his innocence and proved a capable defense attorney.
Riley began to use drugs again, but a developing friendship with Jen Rappaport helped him to realize that using drugs again was doing him harm.
Rae was shocked to be the first to discover that the killer was none other than her colleague, Stephen Haver! Rae tried to needle Stephen and understand his motivations, in the hopes of proving his guilt, but Stephen realized that Rae was onto him! Stephen drugged and kidnapped Rae, who woke up in an isolated room, where Stephen threatened to kill her if she couldn't name his next victim!
Viki was thrilled on Valentines Day 2004, when Ben awoke from his coma long enough to share a few sweet words with his "Blondie" before sadly slipping back into his coma. With those brief moments together again, Viki had hope that her husband would be back for good someday.
At first, Marcie was surprised and unnerved by the sincerity and kindness that normally angry Michael was displaying towards her, but slowly she was won over. On Valentine's Day, Marcie realized that Al's spirit had inhabited Michael's body. He told Marcie that his soul would always remain in Michael's, and encouraged Marcie to find love with Michael.
Al's spirit departed this world, leaving Marcie with no recollection of her heavenly encounter with Al. However, Marcie developed deeper feelings for Michael and looked forward to continuing their relationship.
Famous lounge singer Eve McBain was widowed by her police officer husband in Atlantic City, leaving her to raise their two sons, John and Michael, on her own. The epitome of class and style, Eve sang for their supper, while John pursued a career in law enforcement, and Michael strove to become a doctor. Once John and Michael both settled in Llanview, Pennsylvania, Michael's girlfriend Marcie invited Eve to town to help reunite the estranged family. From there, John and Michael convinced Eve to relocate to Llanview permanently, where she was offered a regular gig performing at Capricorn, a nightclub owned by RJ Gannon.
Marty Saybrooke shocked Llanview by returning in February 2004 to testify at Todd's rape trial -- for the defense! Marty, now a psychologist, testified in her professional opinion that she didn't believe Todd was capable of rape at this point in his life.
Rae got to the bottom of Stephen's psychosis -- his neglectful mother, Marlena Haver. Rae drove Stephen over the edge with talk of his mother, and Stephen bound and gagged Rae before setting the room ablaze, presumably killing her!
When Evangeline refused to call Todd to the witness stand, Todd disagreed with Evangeline's tactics and fired her. By the time he re-hired her, the jury had already been swayed and found him guilty. The verdict crushed Starr, who told her mother she hated her. RJ didn't mind seeing Todd go to jail, and was disappointed when Evangeline was able to get his sentence overturned on a technicality.
Betsy fell for the scheme and named Adriana as her sole heir. Betsy soon after died in David's arms (she offered him $1 million for a kiss). Dorian, along with David, was making plans for the $30 million that Adriana stood to in

Please join us in congratulating soap alums Jessica Morris and Rib Hillis on their marriage! The couple tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony on May 11 at the Inn of the Seventh Ray in Topanga, CA. “It’s official!” the blushing bride cheered on Instagram. “I’m so happy to announce that I am now Mrs. Hillis!”
And among all the comments and well-wishes from family, friends, and fans, Hillis chimed in to declare: “Love you, my Queen,” adding the hashtag “#MrsHillis” for good measure.
Morris is best known to soap fans for playing Jennifer Rappaport on ONE LIFE TO LIVE from 2001-05 with a brief appearance in 2008. Hillis starred as Dr. Jake Marshak on the GENERAL HOSPITAL spinoff, PORT CHARLES, from 1997-98. He also subbed in as a recast for Ethan on PASSIONS when Eric Martsolf took paternity leave.
The rustic wedding was officiated by Morris’ best friend, actress Robin Sydney. “I knew I wanted to be surrounded by nature and twinkling lights,” the bride told People of her “magical and romantic” nuptials. She also loved her gown from Evie Young which made her feel like “a sensual forest nymph.”
The couple first met back in 2013 when Hillis cast Morris to play his wife in a movie. “Finding true love is not always easy,” the bride admitted. “Sometimes the journey is long and full of obstacles, twists and turns, and even some pitfalls. But if you keep going, never lose hope, and follow your heart, it will take you to a wonderful destination.
“We complete each other,” Morris concluded. “We have always felt that we were each others’ missing puzzle peace and when we are together, our puzzle is complete and we are happy.”

Joseph Francis Riley, Jr. was the second child of Viki Lord Riley and Joe Riley (Kevin was the first). Joe Riley died a few months before Joey's birth, and Viki named their new son after Joe when he was born in January 1980. When Viki married cowboy Clint Buchanan a few years later, Clint adopted the boys and raised them as his own. Aside from some disappointment when his parents broke up and some confusion when his best friend Billy Douglas came out of the closet, Joey had a happy, uneventful childhood.
After Joey graduated high school in 1993, he traveled to Italy to study. He returned in 1994, worldlier for his experiences abroad. During that summer Joey was seduced by Dorian Cramer Lord, who was using him to get back at archenemy Viki. Joey lost his virginity to Dorian, and they were both surprised when they fell in love with each other. Joey was heartbroken in early 1995 when he got a "Dear John" letter from Dorian, saying she was moving to Spain. Unbeknownst to everyone, Dorian was actually being held captive by Jean Randolph, one of Viki's alternate personalities, who forced Dorian to break up with Joey. Jean even forced Dorian to marry con artist David Vickers. Later, while living with Kevin at the Llanfair carriage house, Joey began a relationship with Kelly Cramer, Dorian's wild niece who had recently moved to town. Joey saved Kelly's life after she had been held hostage by David, and they started dating.
Later in 1995, Joey was out jogging and he spotted a beautiful woman swimming nude in a pond, but she ran away before he could find out who she was. The next day he spotted her again; her name was Cameron Wallace. They began to have a bit of a romance going, but she left town after quickly being revealed as a con artist hired by Dorian to infiltrate Buchanan Enterprises. Joey and Kelly got over this hump and planned to go to Paris to study together. Kelly kept finding excuses to not go, most of them because of her Aunt Dorian. Joey ended up going to Paris alone. Joey and Kelly tried to write and keep the relationship going, but it didn't work out, especially since Joey's cousin Drew was doing his best to keep them apart. Soon Kelly got a letter saying it was over between them and was so upset that she accidentally caused a car accident which caused the death of her cousin Blair's unborn child.
Joey returned to Llanview in 1997 to a more mature Kelly. Soon after his arrival Joey tried to get Kelly back, but she refused. Joey briefly dated Dorothy Hayes and gently rebuffed efforts by Dorian to reconnect with him. In 1998, Joey began dating and Barbara Graham and fell madly in love with her, but Barbara was secretly obsessed with Kevin and made it her mission to sabotage Kevin's relationship with Cassie. Meanwhile, Kelly started dating Drew Buchanan, but the relationship was cut short when Drew was shot and killed by Barbara in a botched attempt to kill Joey. By spring 1999, Joey made another play for Kelly but he was too late, because had begun a serious relationship with Max Holden. As Kelly and Max prepared to marry, Joey consoled himself at a local bar and ended up having a drunken one-night stand with barmaid Sophia Pellegrino. Joey returned home to find Kelly waiting there for him, explaining that she had left Max at the altar. Joey and Kelly reconciled, and Kelly even forgave him after Joey admitted to his drunken encounter with Sophia.
In February 2000, Joey was devastated and heart-sick when he found out about his mother's breast cancer. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to Joey, Kelly and Kevin had become drawn to each other. Sophia locked them in a cellar together, sure that they would give in to their passion and she could capture it all on videotape, but they held off. Later, they gave into their passion and had sex. Soon after Viki went through her surgery, Joey and Kelly eloped! But their marriage was strained, and eventually Kelly admitted to Joey that she had feelings for Kevin. Joey was devastated and kicked Kelly out of the house. Joey had a hard time letting go of Kelly and tried to stall the divorce and used the fact that a hit man was after Kelly to stay close to her. After he helped save Kelly from the hit man, he decided the best thing to do was let the divorce go through and leave Llanview for a while. He left to go live with his father, Clint, in London. Two and a half years later, Joey returned to Llanview in February 2003 as a minister in training. Joey worked at Angel Square's homeless shelter and became interested in the plight of chronically coughing street musician Flash, but their budding romance was cut short after a few kisses when Flash admitted she was Joey's first cousin, Sarah Roberts.
Joey then turned his full attention to saving Jen Rappaport from her bad-girl impulses and her marriage to sleazy con artist Rex Balsom. They wed almost immediately after her divorce was finalized, but Jen was not thrilled with the life of a minister's wife. She also wasn't happy to be pregnant, but Joey was thrilled to be a father. When Jen miscarried, she tried to keep the truth from him. He got over the loss, but this only frayed their union even further. She slept with Rex. As hard as she tried to keep the tryst a secret, Joey found out. He realized their relationship was beyond repair and in December 2003, took a leave of absence from the rectory to once again visit Clint in London.
Joey briefly returned in May 2004 when Viki fell ill with a heart condition. While in town, he and Jen mended their hurt feelings over the dissolve of their marriage and wished each other the best.
In August 2007, Joey briefly returned to Llanview with Cord and Kevin to attend the funeral of his grandfather, Asa Buchanan. He touched bases with his family and even shared a tender moment of reflection with Dorian before returning to London, where he was now working at the family business.
Joey surprised his mother by showing up in Llanview for Thanksgiving in November 2010. Joey explained that he had been traveling abroad but had decided to return to town for an extended stay. Joey had met and fell in love with a young woman named Aubrey Wentworth less than a month earlier, and he brought Aubrey to town to meet his family - unaware that Kelly Cramer had recently realized that Joey was the love of her life. Joey introduced Aubrey to Viki and Clint as the woman he was going to marry and then shocked Aubrey by proposing marriage to her right then. Aubrey politely declined, saying she wanted time to get to know Joey before rushing into marriage. Joey accused his parents of not supporting his decision and worried he may have lost Aubrey.
When Kelly saw Joey with the engagement ring, she immediately thought Joey was going to ask her to marry him but Joey was shocked at the mere notion that he would want to marry Kelly again. When Joey introduced Kelly to Aubrey, he was surprised they already knew each other and Kelly blurted out how happy she was for both of them. Joey then asked Aubrey again to marry him, and this time Aubrey accepted his proposal. When Joey asked Kelly what she had wanted to talk to Joey about, Kelly lied that she was getting back together with his brother Kevin. Joey called out his father for failing to accept Aubrey into the family. Kelly, who was suspicious of Aubrey's true motives, discovered a photograph in a French magazine that showed Aubrey out with another man after she had begun dating Joey. Kelly showed the magazine to Joey, who dismissed the picture and then criticized Kelly for telling him about it. Joey bought the lie that the man in the photo was Aubrey's brother, Cutter, who had just recently come to town.
Joey was flabbergasted when Clint threatened to disown him if he didn't have Aubrey sign a prenuptial agreement. Joey told Aubrey, who brought it up during the christening ceremony for Joey's new nephews, Liam and Ryder. Clint publically apologized for disowning Joey and welcomed Aubrey into the family. During a bachelor party for John and Brody, who were set to marry Natalie and Jessica, Joey and Kelly were locked in a storage room at Rodi's by a well-intentioned Shaun and Vivian. Kelly confessed that she still loved Joey, but Joey said it was too late since he was already with Aubrey. At the wedding, Joey and the rest of the family was stunned when one of Clint's coworkers revealed that he had been ordered by Clint to change DNA tests that proved Clint was the father of Rex Balsom and that Robert Ford was the father of Jessica's baby. After Clint was arrested, Kelly gave Joey a flash drive and begged him to look at it. But when Cutter called up the footage on his laptop, all it showed was Aubrey professing to Cutter her love for Joey in her hotel room. Joey jumped to the conclusion that Kelly had bugged Aubrey's hotel room and wouldn't let Kelly explain that the flash drive actually came from Clint. Aubrey then suggested that she and Joey get married right then, and Joey agreed. The two exchanged vows as a despondent Kelly watched in the shadows. The next day, Joey learned from Natalie that Kelly had slept with John after Natalie and John's wedding imploded when John learned that Brody was the father of Natalie's baby.
Joey ordered John not to lay a finger on Kelly and then punched John in the face after John remarked that he had laid "more than a finger" on her. Joey and Aubrey moved into the Buchanan mansion and Aubrey maneuvered Joey into destroying the original copy of the hard drive before he could view what was on it. Joey worried after Jessica turned into her alternate personality, Tess, and began hanging out with Cutter. He warned Cutter to stay away from Tess, but later Joey agreed with Cutter's plan to stay close to Tess to try to get her to turn back to Jessica. Joey and Aubrey got into a heated fight after Aubrey learned from Kelly that she and Joey had kissed the night before Joey's wedding. But Joey insisted he wanted to be with Aubrey and felt nothing for Kelly. Joey remained oblivious about Aubrey's deceptions. Robert Ford told Joey that Aubrey had dumped him years earlier when she learned he wasn't wealthy, but Aubrey convinced Joey that Ford couldn't be trusted.
Joey was devastated when his father suffered a heart attack and later revealed that he would die without a heart transplant. Aubrey stood by his side during the ordeal. At the same time, Viki was fighting Tess and Robert Ford for custody of their baby, Ryder. When the judge refused to grant custody to Viki or the baby's parents, Aubrey stood up and said that she and Joey would take in the baby to prevent him from going to foster care. The gesture touched Joey. But Joey soon was stunned when Cutter revealed that he was a con man who had been after the Buchanan fortune all along. Cutter even blackmailed Clint for $1 million and the deed to the family home in exchange for having his quickie marriage to Tess annulled. Aubrey told Joey she had no idea that her brother was a con man, but Joey soon learned the truth from Clint. Joey told Aubrey their marriage was over, but she won a temporary reprieve when she reminded him that they would lose custody of Ryder if the judge learned their marriage was over. Aubrey and Joey moved into Llanfair, but Joey kicked Aubrey out after Jessica returned and reclaimed her children.
After Kelly nearly died after being stabbed by a delusional Marty, Joey realized he truly loved her and wanted to be with her. Kelly at first resisted, not wanting to be Joey's fall back girl, but Joey eventually won her over and they rekindled their relationship.
After Joey and Kelly went to London to visit Kelly's son, Zane, Kelly decided that she needed to be closer to her son permanently. She told Joey she planned to move back to London, and Joey decided to go with her. Aubrey visited Joey before he left and tried to return the wedding ring he had given her, but Joey told her to keep it. Joey bid farewell to his mother and father and headed off to London with Kelly.

Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt offered guests at their lavish 2000 wedding quite a treat, according to Michael Rapaport.
The comedian and Bravo superfan was a guest on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen on Monday, when talk turned to Aniston and Pitt's nuptials, which Rapaport attended. During a segment called "The Rapa Report," Rapaport offered his hot take on a recent Real Housewives of New York City episode in which Erin Lichy served caviar and potato chips during a get-together in the Hamptons.
"Any time you're serving caviar, let me know," he cracked. "I was at Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston’s wedding. They had a wall of caviar. I still have some saved over."
A shocked Cohen replied, "How have you been on the show 87 times, and I’ve never talked to you about Aniston and Pitt’s wedding?"
The 51-year-old comedian joked that the former couple has "dropped it now," but "I'm still eating the caviar from there. I was shoveling it down."
Rapaport previously worked with Pitt on 1993's True Romance and guest starred alongside Aniston on Friends in 1999.
The former couple tied the knot in a reported $1 million wedding in front of 200 guests at a private Malibu estate on July 29, 2000. They announced their divorce in 2005, but have remained friendly throughout the years.
Pitt famously moved on with Angelina Jolie, the mother of his six children whom he split from in 2016. As for Aniston, she was married to Justin Theroux from 2015 to 2017.
Just last year, a source detailed Aniston and Pitt's friendship to ET.
"Brad and Jen are still friends," the source said. "They talk and have a nice, friendly, cordial relationship."
According to the source, Pitt and Aniston "aren't getting back together, but they have a lot of respect for each other."
Aniston later spoke out about the split in an incredibly candid interview with Allure, addressing a decades-long narrative that her breakups had something to do with her not wanting to be a mother.
Aniston told the magazine, "I just cared about my career. And God forbid a woman is successful and doesn’t have a child. And the reason my husband left me, why we broke up and ended our marriage, was because I wouldn’t give him a kid. It was absolute lies. I don’t have anything to hide at this point."
In fact, Aniston said she was trying to have children. "All the years and years and years of speculation... It was really hard. I was going through IVF, drinking Chinese teas, you name it. I was throwing everything at it. I would’ve given anything if someone had said to me, 'Freeze your eggs. Do yourself a favor.' You just don’t think it. So here I am today. The ship has sailed," she shared. "I have zero regrets. I actually feel a little relief now because there is no more, 'Can I? Maybe. Maybe. Maybe.' I don’t have to think about that anymore."
The amicable exes previously reunited on a public arena when they joined forces for a virtual Fast Times at Ridgemont High table read in 2021.
"It was absolutely fun," the Murder Mystery actress gushed of the reunion. "Brad and I are buddies, we're friends."
She added, "We speak, and there's no oddness at all, except for everyone that probably watched it and was wanting there to be, or assumed there to be."

Joe Buchanan died two weeks ago, after months of routine dialysis treatments. His wife of 34 years, Kimra, and their son, Justin, braced for this day they knew would eventually come.
But they weren’t prepared for what came after.
“The time when we should be mourning and going through old photos and hugging this out, we can’t,” Justin Buchanan said during a video interview last week.
The interview he did with KNKX Public Radio, alongside his mom, was the closest he had sat to her since his father died.
That’s because Kimra Buchanan started showing flu-like symptoms around the time of her husband’s death. She’s been practicing strict social distancing, in case those symptoms are a result of COVID-19, the respiratory disease caused by the novel coronavirus.
But keeping her distance means she hasn’t been able to physically console her children, or see her in-laws, to mourn the death of her “old school, salt-of-the-earth” husband, as she describes him.
“I have not even begun to grieve,” she said. “I almost feel like I’m stuck.”
Kimra recalled the process that followed her mother’s death four years ago: visiting the funeral home, choosing an urn, arranging details for a service, gathering with family for mutual support.
“We can’t do any of that right now,” she said. “We still haven’t picked out an urn. We haven’t made those arrangements. I haven’t even been able to see his mom and dad. It’s just been strange.”
The coronavirus outbreak has touched virtually every part of our lives. And now it’s affecting the way people grieve.
Funeral homes in Washington state are adapting their services to meet public health requirements and limit the spread of COVID-19.
Gov. Jay Inslee included funerals in his sweeping ban on public gatherings. In a statement released Saturday, Inslee clarified that services may continue with immediate family members only, so long as attendees practice social distancing guidelines recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And some funeral homes are offering livestreamed memorial services.
Still, many families across the state — including the Buchanans — are postponing instead. David Lukov, who presides over services at Kern Funeral Home in Mount Vernon, said he’s already postponed a handful and expected more to follow.
“Every day we’re scurrying to figure out what we can do to serve our families,” Lukov said.
But there’s little he and others in his position can do beyond wait, for those who want to console in community.
“Funerals, most people have been to them,” said Rob Goff, executive director of the Washington State Funeral Directors Association. “There’s a lot of hugging and holding each other and sharing these moments of grief with each other, and you can’t do that by way of a livestream.”
So, the biggest change to funeral directors’ jobs is how they’re interacting with families.
“Most funeral homes have basically locked their doors,” Goff said. “It’s appointment only. But most of those appointments are being held now by way of telephone conference, video conference.”
There isn’t a ban on disposition of remains, meaning cremation and burial can continue, as well as cultural ceremonies such as washing or shrouding. The Buchanans said dealing with the funeral home was the only normal part of the past couple weeks.
But a nationwide shortage of personal protective equipment is posing a challenge for funeral homes looking to maintain safe working conditions.
The state’s emergency operations center uses a tiered system to identify who will receive supplies that are increasingly limited. That includes surgical masks that mortuary workers must use when handling remains. Goff says funeral homes are a step below health care workers and first responders, and he’s hoping the state will bump them up a level to maintain safe working conditions.
“That will open the door for us to have access to personal protective equipment much greater than we have currently,” he said.
Goff’s organization is petitioning the governor and state Sen. Mike Padden, a Republican who represents the Spokane Valley area. He says it’s possible to contract COVID-19 from decedents, because the virus spreads through respiratory droplets that can be exhaled from a deceased person’s lungs.
Goff said viewings also are allowed in small groups, though he says they aren’t common these days. Roughly 80 percent of people statewide choose to be cremated after they die.
But as strict social distancing continues, and some people are forced to die alone in quarantine, Goff says he expects behavior to shift.
“Without having a funeral, I think we’re seeing a lot more requests for viewing, because we haven’t been able to see our loved ones,” Goff said. “The further away from the death you are, the harder it hits you at home.”
He says postponing funerals until more people can gather extends the mourning process, compounding the grief.
“People who experience that experience it much longer than people who have the opportunity to view and have the opportunity to say goodbye,” he said. “They live with that for the rest of their lives. That’s going to affect them forever.”
For Kimra and Justin Buchanan, they want that closeness — something they say a livestream can’t replace.
“There’s no one there to hold your hand, no one there to hand you Kleenex, no one to laugh with when someone tells a funny story,” Kimra said. “I can’t even imagine not having that human contact.”

1. You have had a remarkable career in the entertainment industry, including a notable role as Jennifer Rappaport on "One Life to Live." How did this experience influence your journey as an actress?
My character on this show was very troubled and made many mistakes. This gave me an opportunity to learn how to play a person who, although slightly irredeemable in some situations, can also have a huge heart. Giving compassionate characteristics to a flawed character is something I have taken with me in other roles that I have played.
2. At what age did you want to become an actress? What motivated you to pursue this career?
I fell in love with acting at the age of 12. The first time I got on stage and became someone else, I felt a sense of confidence and comfort that I had never before experienced.
3. Your latest project, "Break In," showcases your versatility as an actress. Can you share more about your character Heather and the challenges she faces in the movie?
Heather is in the process of leaving her abusive husband (played by William Baldwin), who tries to convince her to stay in the marriage. Meanwhile she is having an affair with another man. While staying at her late motherâs house, an intruder torments her. Ultimately, she has to fight for her life, only to discover the real horror behind the home invasion and finally get her revenge.
4. Break In" features a suspenseful storyline with a masked killer. What drew you to this project, and how did you prepare for the intense scenes?
The contained aspect of the movie is a challenge I found to want to take on. For the intense scenes, I listened to music and honestly had to go to some dark places in my mind.
5. With an extensive list of credits on the Lifetime and Lifetime Movie Network, you've become a fan-favorite. What do you enjoy most about working on Lifetime projects, especially within "The Wrong" franchise?
I love the thriller format and how the protagonist must always find strength within herself to overcome her circumstances.
6. In addition to your Lifetime credits, you've appeared in diverse roles, including the Netflix series "The Upshaws" and the Party of Five reboot. How do you approach portraying characters in different genres and platforms?
I just try to find the truth in every character I play, regardless of genre.
7. Congratulations on recently being featured in People Magazine for your wedding! How do you balance your personal life with the demands of a successful acting career?
Thank you! It is not easy, especially since my husband Rib Hillis, is also a working actor. Many times, one of us is out of town on a shoot. But we make it work by visiting each other when possible, having wonderful communication and because we really understand the demands of the job since we are in the same industry. FaceTime dates can be really fun too!
8. You co-wrote and starred in the TV movie "Twisted Little Lies." Can you share more about the creative process behind this project and working with your co-star Melissa Archer?
Melissa and I came up with this story over cocktails one night and just ran with the idea. What started as sort of a hobby, turned into a job for both of us and it was amazing to watch it come to life.
9. The horror thriller, "The Onania Club," directed by Tom Six, generated great anticipation. What attracted you to this project, and how does it differ from your previous roles in the horror genre?
What was incredible about this project was that we improvised most of the scenes. We only had an outline to go on, and then talked it through with our scene partners and just made it up as we went. This was terrifying but actually very liberating.

Benita Albert continues her series on the Buchanan family of graduates from Oak Ridge Schools.
***
Joel Buchanan is a 1973 Oak Ridge High School (ORHS) graduate who has had a distinguished career in medicine. Now he is initiating a technology plan that offers problem-oriented, auto-summaries of medical records for physicians. The plan promotes the use of concept maps generated from electronic health records (EHRs) with filters for sorting patient data related to a current medical condition. His innovation is a game changer for the many massive databases that exist for individual patients and doctors whose task is to diagnose and treat.
Joel is now professor of medicine (emeritus) at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health. From 1993-2019, he served as the medical director for information systems for the University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics. This position and his medical practice experience no doubt shaped what is now his ongoing quest to provide enhanced technological support for the medical community. Though the technology of his early medical career was limited, Joel stayed abreast of the rapidly expanding tech world. In this first part of his story there is evidence that some of the influences Joel experienced as an Oak Ridge youth foretold his eventual career.
You may recognize the name Buchanan from an earlier story published this year on Steve Buchanan, ORHS Class of ’75. They are brothers, both native Oak Ridgers, and the sons of Joel and Jane Buchanan. When I began my search for these men, I made contact with their mother, Jane, who was thrilled to talk about both of her sons. Joel Sr. and Jane were 60-year residents of Oak Ridge (1951-2012). They were scientists, active volunteers in community activities, and also noted photographers. You may read more of their story via an online link to the first part of Steve’s article: https://www.oakridger.com/story/opinion/columns/guest/2022/03/18/stephen-buchanan-and-memories-oak-ridge-schools/7038123001/.
Joel shared many special memories from his Oak Ridge childhood. Speaking of his years at Woodland Elementary, Joel praised the opportunity to be in split-grade classes where he reaped the benefits of exposure to higher level work. He recalled the school assemblies where all the students watched the U.S. space shots on a small, black and white television, the school’s technology of the time.
Seventh grade, his first year at Jefferson Junior High School (JJHS), was in the original ORHS building, which sat above Blankenship Field. The new Jefferson Junior High School opened at the first of Joel’s eighth-grade year.
Joel said, “It was exciting to be in the first group of students in a new building with updated features.”
A first memory of ORHS centered on band. Joel returned home from his first day in band camp to announce to his parents that he could travel to Europe with the band the following summer of 1971. Jane also recalled this moment: “Doc Combs (the ORHS band instructor) believed in getting started early, so band practices were scheduled before school actually started. You can imagine this mother’s shock after sending her first-born off for his first ORHS band practice and his first high school experience, when the first thing he said after his return home was, ‘Mom may I go to Europe with the band next summer?’ Europe? A tenth grader? What are we talking about? Well, he did go, and it was a great experience. He paid for part of his way by working at Weigel’s Jug O’Milk.”
Director Combs made arrangements for his ORHS band students to travel with a high school band from Bowling Green, Kentucky. The group held concerts in the town squares of many villages. Joel played the clarinet from fifth grade through his sophomore year after which his academic course schedule conflicted with the band schedule. He would later return “to play for fun” when, as a freshman at Duke, extracurricular student participation in school activities such as band were encouraged.
For three years, Joel played with the marching band at Blue Devil home games, and the band also performed at several away games.
Joel’s mother also wrote, using her "pet" name for son Joel: “Joey was interested in ‘gadgets’ from an early age. He became a ham radio operator when he was fairly young. He seemed to always be building one device or another.”
When I related this story to Joel, he laughed and clarified that his interest started with a Boy Scout leader who was an operator himself and who offered instruction in Morse Code, the first step in earning a communications license.
He said, “I used my savings from my paper route to buy a receiver, and I built the transmitter myself using help from local ham operators when needed. I mostly taught myself with books from the library on electronics. … I would go on the roof of our house to rig antennae, stringing wire between trees. Later, I set up an antenna at a summer camp in North Carolina so that fellow campers could get on line to talk to their parents.”
Joel’s training came in handy when he signed up for an extracurricular activity at Duke University in his freshman year. In the fall of 1973, Duke was looking to rejuvenate the student radio station, and Joel signed up for what became a four-year commitment performing such jobs as chief engineer, program manager, general manager, and even disc jockey.
I asked Joel if he had continued with his ham radio activity. Stating that he no longer had a license, he enthused over the enormous changes in communications, especially encryption capabilities and computer linkages that have enormously improved the science. As an aside, he mentioned the fact that some Russian military communications on the battlefield in Ukraine have been easily intercepted by citizen ham operators worldwide due to the Russians using primitive radio communications not unlike the kind he used as a teenager.
Another meaningful community activity was Joel’s participation in Boy Scouts where he achieved Eagle Scout rank. He stayed active in the troop as a student mentor and camp counselor at Camp Buck Tom throughout high school. His Eagle Scout project created a photo board of church members at the United Church, Chapel-on-the-Hill, his family’s church. He took Polaroid pictures and posted them for the convenience of members to associate names with faces, as well as children with their parents. His project was a precursor to a later, popular practice of published, church member directories.
Joel recounted fond memories of his scouting activities: camping on Thief Neck Island in Watts Bar Lake, a site only accessible by boat; canoeing and camping in Maine; and a hiking venture in the Grand Tetons.
He said, “Our troop put on our own summer camps. Our leaders were very creative and adventurous.”
Jane recalled that Joel taught first aid to younger scouts, which she described as “his introduction to health care and medicine.” In addition, Zafer Malazgirt lived in the Buchanan home as an American Field Service (AFS) exchange student from Turkey during his and Joel’s senior year at ORHS. Zafer was passionate about a future in medicine, and Jane believes that this further piqued Joel’s interest in the medical sciences.
Joel said that he enjoyed having “another brother” in their home: “Zafer brought new opportunities to meet more of my classmates through many public events in which he was involved.”
The fledgling ORHS soccer team benefitted from Zafer’s athletic skills in a sport he had played since childhood. As Joel described it, “Soccer was just catching on at ORHS, and I’m sure the coach was glad to have Zafer’s experience.”
The Buchanan family has remained close to Zafer throughout the succeeding years. Joel’s visit in 2006 to Zafer’s home in Samsun on the Black Sea in Turkey included a lecture to medical students and faculty at the local university. Zafer is a prominent surgeon in Turkey, focusing on colon and rectal problems.
Joel lauded the Advanced Placement (AP) Biology course with ORHS teacher Jo Henderson as a course that helped sway his choice of a biomedical engineering major at Duke.
He said, “Because my parents were scientists, I thought it was my destiny to major in science.”
He also observed that the numerous AP credits he earned in many courses at ORHS were transferable for advanced standing at Duke, and that allowed him to diversify his academic program with coursework beyond the engineering curriculum requirements.
Joel is now an advocate for a smart approach to data retrieval inside electronic health records with his current plan for the use of “concept maps” to filter relevant health information. His career from emergency room physician to internal medicine practice to university teaching, researching, and consulting brings credence to his understanding of the ever-increasing challenges medical doctors face. Though his title is now an emeritus professor of medicine, his problem-solving mind is still very much at work, and his quest for technological efficacy in medical practice is ongoing.
***
Thanks, Benita, for another excellent series on Oak Ridge graduates. Next, we will see Joel as he works to advance medical technology and what he sees as the future in that area.

Background and casting
The role Joey Buchanan was originated by child actor Ryan Morris from 1980 to 1985. Morris was then replaced by John Paul Learn from 1985 to 1990. In 1990, the role was reintroduced by teen actor Chris McKenna, who portrayed the role until 1993. In 1994, actor Nathan Fillion first appeared in the regular role of an 18-year-old Joey on the episode first-run April 28, 1994. Fillion remained on the series until his on-screen departure on February 14, 1998. Fillion's portrayal of Joey earned him a Younger Actor Emmy nomination in 1998. Following Fillion's departure, the role was recast with actor Don Jeffcoat, who stepped into the role on-screen on October 17, 1998.
In 2000, it was announced that Jeffcoat was cast out of the series after his contract was not extended. Jeffcoat last aired on-air on January 19, 2001. In early 2003, it was announced that Passions actor Bruce Michael Hall would join the cast as the third adult actor to portray the role of Joey. However, it was announced in November 2003 that Hall had been let go from the show. He last aired in 2004. Fillion returned briefly to the role in August 2007 for One Life to Live's 9,999 and 10,000 episodes.
In July 2009, it was reported that actor Daniel Cosgrove, best known for his role as Bill Lewis on the CBS Daytime soap opera Guiding Light would be cast in the role as Joey Buchanan following the series' September 2009 finale. The reports were confirmed untrue when it was announced that Cosgrove would join the CBS Daytime soap As the World Turns in the role of Christopher Hughes.
In the summer of 2010, a casting call went out with the prospect of possibly officially recasting the role of Joey Buchanan. On October 5, 2010, it was announced that newcomer Josh Kelly had been cast as Joey Buchanan. Kelly had a projected on-air debut of November 24, 2010. Kelly reportedly beat out several Daytime heavy-weights including Matt Borlenghi, Brody Hutzler, and Austin Peck. However, two days later, it was announced that the role of Joey had been unrecast and then re-recast the role with former As the World Turns actor Tom Degnan, and that Kelly would be cast in another contract role of new character Cutter Wentworth instead. One Life to Live executive producer Frank Valentini released a statement concerning the change-up, stating:
After auditioning a talented group of guys for the role of Joey, we are excited to announce that not one but two of them will be joining the cast of One Life to Live in contract roles. [W]e have decided that Josh Kelly is a great fit for the other contract role that we have written [...] We look forward to both actors joining the show.
Degnan premiered as previously reported for Kelly on November 24, 2010. Following the April 2011 cancellation of One Life to Live and All My Children, it was announced that Degnan would exit alongside co-star Gina Tognoni, who was portraying Joey's long-time love, Kelly Cramer would exit the series before its January 2012 finale. Both Degnan and Tognoni exited the soap on August 24, 2011.
1979–93
Joey is born to Victoria "Viki" Lord Riley (Erika Slezak) mere months after the death of his father and her husband Joe Riley (Lee Patterson) in 1980. When Viki later marries Clint Buchanan (Clint Ritchie) in 1982, Clint adopts Joey and his older brother, Kevin Lord Riley. In the summer of 1992, a teenage Joey befriends a closeted gay teen named Billy Douglas (Ryan Phillippe) who had a friendship with the Rev. Andrew Carpenter (Wortham Krimmer). College student Marty Saybrooke (Susan Haskell), who has a crush on Andrew and is jealous of his relationship with Billy, accuses Andrew of molesting Billy. Andrew is later found not to be sexually abusing Billy, which forces Billy to come out of the closet to his parents and to the citizens of Llanview. Joey supports his friend Billy as he copes with coming out of the closet and the homophobia from the town and his disapproving father. Andrew later helps bring the AIDS quilt to Llanview to help the town to tolerate the gay community.
1994–2001, 2003–04, 2007
In 1994 a young adult Joey secretly romances his mother's nemesis Dorian Lord (Robin Strasser). Though initially motivated by revenge against Viki, Dorian comes to love Joey; Viki is outraged when she finds out. During a recurrence of her dissociative identity disorder, one of Viki's alternate personalities, Jean Randolph, holds Dorian hostage in a secret room beneath Llanfair in 1995. One of the conditions of her release is to end the relationship with Joey, which she does.
Joey later becomes involved with Dorian's niece, Kelly Cramer (Gina Tognoni) in late 1995. Ultimately, Kelly leaves him for his brother Kevin.
In 2003, Joey returns to Llanview, having become a pastor in his absence. He soon marries Jennifer Rappaport, but her struggle to fit into her new role as a pastor's wife and her feelings for Rex Balsom destroy the marriage. Joey leaves town for London in January 2004. For two weeks that May, Joey returns while Viki undergoes heart transplant surgery.
Joey returns for two days in August 2007, along with brothers Cord Roberts (John Loprieno) and Kevin, for the funeral of his adopted grandfather, Asa Buchanan (Philip Carey). He and Dorian briefly discuss their past relationship, and the fact that they both still think of each other.
2010–11
Joey returns to Llanview for Thanksgiving in 2010 with a woman named Aubrey Wentworth (Terri Conn). Though Kelly finds herself still in love with him, Joey proposes to Aubrey. Clint does a background check on Aubrey, uncovering her history as a con artist with professed brother but actual former boyfriend Cutter (Josh Kelly). Aubrey learns of Clint's disreputable deeds and blackmails him. Despite Kelly's protests, Joey and Aubrey elope in February 2011. While Kelly insists to Joey that Aubrey's motives for marriage is his families' fortunes, her accusations cause Joey to push her away. A devastated Kelly begins a romantic relationship with John McBain (Michael Easton), resigning that Joey's new marriage to another woman. Eventually, Joey discovers that Aubrey's history and true relationship to Cutter. When Joey confronts Aubrey, she admits to her initial transgressions but vows to falling in-love with him. Joey keeps his knowledge of Aubrey's actions quiet as he and Aubrey are awarded temporary custody of his nephew, Ryder Ford, while his sister and mother suffered bouts with multiple personalities. Later, when Kelly is stabbed by psychotic psychiatrist Dr. Marty Saybrooke (Susan Haskell) and left for dead, Joey finally admits to and declares his undying affection for Kelly while she laid in hospital. Joey and Aubrey soon divorce in July 2011.
In August 2011, Joey announces that he is moving back to London with Kelly so that they could be closer to Kelly's son and Joey's great-nephew, Zane. Before leaving Llanfair, Aubrey gives Joey back the engagement ring he gave her, but Joey declines and wishes Aubrey well. Joey lets Aubrey keep the ring because he gave it to her in "good faith", despite the fact that she originally married him for his money. Joey and Kelly say goodbye to family members before departing on the episode first-run August 24, 2011.

Clint Buchanan was the first of the rugged cowboy clan to show up in Llanview. Joe Riley, suffering from a terminal illness, heard of a wonderful independent newspaper in Arizona. He contacted the editor of the paper (Clint) and convinced him to take over as editor at the Banner. Joe's devoted wife, and publisher/owner of the Banner, Victoria Lord, first met Clint when he brought a drunken Joe home after a night at the bars. Needless to say, they didn't hit it off. Following Joe's death, Viki mourned her losses and prepared for the birth of a son, Joey. Clint dated talk show host Pat Ashley, a courtship that was busted up when her sister Maggie locked Pat away and tried to take her place. Clint was fooled at first, but soon went to find Pat. Maggie and Pat struggled over a gun. Only Pat left the room alive. Traumatized by killing her own sister, Pat told Clint she had to put all the bad memories - including him, unfortunately - behind her. Clint then had a fling with town villainess Dorian Lord, but he wasn't interested in staying for breakfast, much less a relationship.
By this time Clint was warming up to his publisher, but she was dating Ted Clayton, who claimed to be her ward Tina's long-lost father. Clint could tell that Ted was up to no good, but Viki didn't want to listen. When Clint and Viki went to a conference in New York, they had dinners by candlelight and began to realize they were in love. Viki planned to tell Ted the truth, but he slipped her enough drugs to convince her to be his bride. Clint kidnapped her before the wedding. Just as he got through to Viki, Ted showed up and poisoned him. The police chief showed up in time with an antidote, and Ted was arrested not only for the drugging but also for running a counterfeit ring in Llanview. Viki was shocked by what she had gotten herself into and refused to start any new relationship, even with Clint. Clint responded by moving to a rival paper, The Chronicle, and taking Banner columnist Edwina Lewis with him. They soon began a passionate affair.
In 1982, Viki's good friend Jenny Wolek was being pressured over who caused her baby to be switched with Katrina Karr's baby. Viki wrote an editorial saying she knew for a fact that Jenny was innocent of all claims and charges against her. When a grand jury grilled Viki on her sources, she chose to go to jail rather than name them. Clint visited her each day, and they finally admitted they were in love. Upon her release, they were married at Llanfair.
In 1983, an exotic countess/photographer, Echo DiSavoy, introduced herself to Clint, who was haunted by how familiar she seemed. Her allure led him to fall into bed with her. What he didn't know was that she blamed him for the death of her mother, and she lured him to a bridge. Upon picking a fight with him, she jumped to her death. Dorian witnessed the scene and told everyone that he had pushed Echo. Viki tracked the very-much-alive Echo down and Echo confessed her scheme. After she left town, Viki and Clint patched up their marriage.
In 1985, Tina Clayton returned to town and revealed to Viki that she was in fact Victor Lord's illegitimate child through his affair with Viki's college roommate, Irene Manning. The news caused Viki to revert to her alternate personality, Niki Smith. Niki began going out to bars at night and struck up a romance with an old boyfriend, Harry O'Neill. Tina and Mitch Laurence hatched a plan to inherit the Lord estate by killing Clint and setting up Niki. The plan went awry when Mitch mistook Harry for Clint and shot him! Harry died in a devastated Niki's arms, but Viki reemerged moments later, unable to remember any details about the murder. Tina was arrested but was exonerated when Viki turned back into Niki on the witness stand and revealed what had happened. When Viki failed to re-emerge, Clint had Niki committed. Niki faked a return to Viki to get released. Meanwhile, Tina had the hots for Clint and crawled into his bed after he drank too much one night.. Tina learned of Niki's ruse and convinced her to divorce Clint. Clint found out the truth, but then Tina claimed that she was pregnant with his child and would have an abortion if he didn't marry her! Clint refused to marry her, and her scheme fizzled when Dorian told Clint that Tina was not with child. Desperate to get Viki back, Clint took Tina to the lodge and pretended he wanted to have sex with her. Just as he pushed Tina onto the bed, Niki walked in. Viki's disgust at the situation was enough to bring her back for good, and she and Clint were joyously reunited. Unfortunately, that joy was tempered when her therapist, Dr. Marcus Polk, was found dead and Clint was tried for the crime, but Viki exonerated him.
In 1986, shortly before they remarried, Viki surprised and delighted Clint with the news that she was pregnant. He marveled to his "Pa" Asa that he finally had his first biological child. Asa looked a bit green for a moment, for he knew the truth -- that Clint had a 20 year old son! Clint had been madly in love with a teenage girl named Maria. Asa, disgusted at his son being involved with a Mexican, browbeat and bribed Maria and her mother into fleeing Texas without a word. Clint had never known why Maria left, or that she had been pregnant with his child. That child grew up to be Cord Roberts; like Clint, he had never known their blood ties. When Viki found out the truth, she told Clint, who was outraged at his father and Maria, but thrilled to have a good, kind man like Cord for a son.
Around this time, Viki gave birth to a beautiful baby girl named Jessica. Unfortunately, one of Mitch Laurence's minions, Allison Perkins kidnapped the child. The entire family was frantic. Maria Roberts found Allison, but before she had Allison return the baby, she had her dress like Niki Smith. Clint fell for the bait, and refused to believe Viki's pleas that she had never turned into Niki. Husband and wife were torn apart, just as she became closer to her late husband Joe's twin brother, Tom Dennison. Viki collapsed one day and woke up with selective amnesia, totally blacking out the last 8 years of her life. She thought Tom was Joe, and refused to leave his side. Clint managed to stall her divorce proceedings for 6 months. While spending time with Tom, he convinced her to see a doctor. She discovered she had a brain tumor. While being operated on, she went to "Heaven", where her beloved Joe told her to return to Earth and reunite with her true love, Clint. Afterwards, she remembered Clint, and her love for him.
Later in 1987, Maria Roberts planned to poison Viki so she could have Clint all to herself. The plan went awry when, during a struggle with Tina, Maria got the poison on herself and died. Tina was convicted of her murder. She ran into old foe Jamie Sanders, who swore revenge on her. Tina escaped prison with Cord's help, and the charges eventually were dropped. Jamie tracked her down and took her hostage with Viki. Clint saved them, but Jamie shot him in the head. Clint was rendered blind. Angry at his helplessness, he slowly learned to cope, and moving to his Arizona ranch with Viki further aided his recovery. One day he decided to compete in a grueling horse race, in spite of his lack of eyesight. The family begged him not to get involved, but he went anyway. Little did he know that Maria's vengeful brother George had drugged his horse, Oakie, into a violent reaction. Sure enough, the horse bucked Clint and he whammed his head on a rock.
When Clint woke up, he received two jolts: One, that he could see. Two, that he was in the year 1888! Buck Buchanan, the powerhouse of Buchanan City, looked just like his father. Miss Ginny, the schoolmarm, looked just like his beloved Viki. Clint learned from an Indian named Clear Eyes that he was brought back in time to reunite Ginny and her beau Randolph Lord. Otherwise, Viki would never be born. Clint thought at one point that Randolph was sterile and that he had no way back to the future. Ginny had loved Clint for many weeks, so Clint accepted her marriage proposal. Right before they said their vows, Viki burst through the door. She had been alerted by a visitor from the past and managed to travel back to 1888 through a cave. Clint and Viki reunited themselves, as well as Ginny and Randolph, and for a second task, helped the ever-feuding Buchanan and McGillis families mend fences. Clear Eyes allowed them to return to 1988, where they wondered if the whole thing had just been a dream.
In 1990, Viki was elected mayor of Llanview, and was then shot and suffered a stroke. Clint stood by her side through her entire recovery. In 1991, it was her turn to stand by his side. Viki believed he was sleeping with a pretty coworker, Sondra Hall. In truth he was trying to conceal from Viki that the bullet fragments in his head had shifted, and he only had a few months to live. Viki and their children Joey, Jessica and Kevin convinced Clint to have a risky operation to remove the fragments. He pulled through.
In 1992, Clint grieved for his son Cord's presumed death, all while helping Viki say goodbye to her own child, Megan. The stress and strain finally seemed to take a toll on their once rock-solid marriage. Viki was uninterested in him sexually and enchanted by family biographer Sloan Carpenter. By 1993, Clint and Viki had separate bedrooms. He refused to end the marriage, citing the kids, but when Dorian led him to a tryst between Viki and Sloan, an enraged Clint gave up. He sought solace in his Arizona ranch, only this time a plane crash caused serious injuries that he spent most of the year recovering from. When he returned to Llanview, he and Viki ended their 15-year love affair. Clint saw the deep love Viki had for Sloan, who subsequently died from Hodgkin's Disease.. In 1995, Clint helped Viki through her latest bout of split personalities and the revelation that not only had her father sexually abused her, but she had killed him. Their daughter Jessica began dating sweet young Cristian Vega. Clint shared some tender kisses with Cris' mother, Carlotta, although nothing came of the relationship.
In 1997 and 1998, Clint and Viki began inching their way towards a reconciliation. One night over dinner, Clint proposed to Viki. Flustered, she turned him down, then went on a short cruise. Clint was crushed by her answer. Lindsay Rappaport just happened to be nearby, and after a trip to Vegas, Clint married her. When Viki returned from her trip, she planned to tell Clint that she'd changed her mind...only to find out that he was already married. Due to Lindsay's insecurities over the Buchanan family and her obsession with Nora Buchanan, the marriage fell apart in a matter of months. The last straw was when Jessica got pregnant y Lindsay's son Will. Jessica and Cristian went on the run, and Clint found out that Lindsay had given them money because she wanted Jess out of Will's life. Clint threw her out moved to London to be with his son Cord.
Clint returned in May 1999 to attend his father's wedding and the birth of Jessica's first child. He brought along his girlfriend, Dallas, and wished Viki and her new beau Ben (later revealed to be Clint's half-brother) well. Jessica was involved in a hit and run and Clint was left to mourn his lost grandchild and sing The Yellow Rose of Texas to his comatose daughter. When she recovered, he returned to London. He visited again in 2003 in the aftermath of the revelation that his daughter by Viki was in fact Natalie Buchanan and that Jessica was Viki's daughter by Mitch Laurence. His next visit was in 2004, when he helped Viki through her grueling heart transplant.
Clint returned to Llanview after Jessica was diagnosed with Disassociate Identity Disorder. Dallas followed, but the two realized that their relationship was not meant to be and she returned to London alone. Clint proved to be an interesting voice of reason, as he could sympathize with both Nash and Antonio, each of whom was in love with one of Jessica's personalities. When Tess was only willing to talk to Niki Smith, it was Clint who was able to bring Viki back out when it seemed like Niki would take over. Together, Viki and Clint finally learned the devastating truth -- Jessica's alternate personality stemmed from numerous incidents as a child where she had been used in child pornography. But rather than turn to Viki for comfort, Clint had found a new romantic partner -- Dorian Lord.
Clint and Dorian's relationship came to an end in August 2007, when Dorian falsely believed that Clint was having an affair with Nora and slept with David Vickers. Clint walked in on Dorian and David and called it quits. Soon thereafter, Clint and Nora actually began dating. Dorian, as revenge for being dumped by Clint, orchestrated a hostile takeover of Buchanan Enterprises. Dorian announced the takeover at a BE shareholders meeting, and at the same time revealed that the man Clint believed was his half-brother, Jared Banks, was in fact an imposter and was dating Clint's daughter Natalie. Clint nearly strangled Dorian to death at the meeting. Afterwards, he hatched a plan to win BE back by threatening to take away her ward, Langston Wilde. Clint paid off Columbian officials to release Langston's uncle, Ray Montez, from a prison where he was serving time for murder. Clint's actions infuriated Nora, causing a riff between them. Clint tried to call off the deal at the last minute, but Ray ended up getting shot by his estranged wife Vanessa before he could get on the airplane with Langston. Nora convinced Dorian to give up controlling interest in BE by threatening to press charges against Dorian, who had hired a hit man to kill Ray but thwarted the attack before it happened. Clint was ecstatic, and he and Nora tried to mend fences.
Meanwhile, Clint and Viki's daughter Natalie went missing after arguing with Jared about helping Clint bring Ray to town. Jared got a note from Natalie, saying she had left him and left town, but in fact she was being held beneath Llanfair by Jessica's alter Tess, who was trying to get back at Natalie and Jared for their part in Nash's death. After Jared and Jessica both went missing, Viki and Clint realized something was wrong and started searching for them. After Natalie and Jared were discovered, they told Viki and Clint that Jessica had reverted to Tess and had begun experiencing labor pains. Clint and Viki tracked Jessica down at the cottage she shared with Nash and were overjoyed to discover that Jessica had given birth to a healthy baby girl -- unaware that Jessica's baby had actually died and been switched with Starr's baby by Bess, another of Jessica's alters. Clint broke the news to Jessica about what Tess had done to Natalie and Jared, and Jessica committed herself to St. Anne's to get psychiatric help. Clint and Natalie mended fences, and Clint even welcomed Jared back to BE. When Jared asked Clint's permission to propose to Natalie on Christmas Day 2008, Clint gave his blessing.
When David Vickers returned to town, claiming to have converted to Buddhism, Clint and the rest of the family went into crisis mode to keep David from learning that he was Asa's long-lost son, because according to Asa's will David would be entitled to all of the family's financial holdings. But when Dorian stumbled on the secret, Clint decided it was better to tell David the truth before Dorian could use the knowledge to her advantage. He hired Rex to track down David, but Dorian got to David first and the two got married. Dorian revealed the news of her marriage to the Buchanan family during the Go Red Ball, and David soon learned that he was Asa's missing heir. David at first was upset at Dorian for keeping the news from him, but later he embraced his newfound lineage and kicked the Buchanan's out of the mansion. When DNA tests were performed, however, it was revealed that David wasn't Asa's son but was in fact Bo's son, meaning David wasn't entitled to the Buchanan fortune.
When Bo and Nora's son Matthew was paralyzed in a car accident, Clint tried to find specialists who could help him regain the use of his legs, but he was unsuccessful. Bo and Nora got closer as they struggled to help Matthew through this difficult time, and Clint increasingly found himself off on the sidelines. Clint orchestrated a surprise party to welcome Matthew home from the hospital, but the effort backfired when Matthew said he didn't want to see anyone. When Clint spotted Nora and Bo in an embrace and demanded to know what was going on, Bo told Clint that he nearly kissed Nora while they were sitting in a car after dropping Matthew off at school. Clint was upset at Nora for not confiding in him, and Bo blamed Clint for bringing this on himself by deciding to date his ex-wife! That night, during Natalie's bachelorette party at UltraViolet, Clint stunned Nora by showing up and proposing marriage. Despite her misgivings about the timing of the proposal, Nora accepted Clint's proposal.
Clint and Viki were stunned when Natalie and Jared revealed to them that the baby Jessica was raising as her own was in fact stolen from the hospital by Jessica's alter, Bess, and actually belonged to Starr and Cole. After Jessica's alter Bess reemerged and ran off with the baby, the family followed her to West Virginia and Viki finally got Jessica to acknowledge that her own baby was dead. Clint and Viki later supported Jessica as she returned baby Hope, and grieved privately for the granddaughter they had lost.
While dining together at the Palace Hotel, Nora and Clint were shocked to learn that Viki and Charlie were engaged as well. When the couples realized that they had picked the same wedding date, Renee suggested a double wedding, and they hesitantly agreed. Clint surprised Nora by presenting her with an engagement ring while having breakfast with Matthew and Bo, and then by announcing that he had found a doctor who said he could help Matthew walk again. Clint was surprised when Bo seemed wary of the doctor's ability to cure Matthew. Clint again felt left out when he learned that Nora didn't mention that she and Bo had watched Matthew play piano at a recital. Viki questioned why Clint was rushing Nora into marriage, and Clint said Bo needed to understand that Nora was with him now. When Bo and Nora decided to not to let Matthew have his surgery, Matthew sued his parents. Nora asked Clint to postpone the wedding, but Clint pushed Nora to keep to the schedule, convincing her that a wedding was just what the family needed. On the night before the wedding, unbeknownst to Clint, Nora and Bo shared a kiss outside of Asa's lodge. Clint was nearly told the truth, first by Matthew and then by Bo, but both decided they couldn't hurt Clint. Clint worried to himself that Nora would back out at the last minute, but in the end she and Clint exchanged vows. Afterwards, however, Clint seemed to see Nora even less than he had before the wedding. Nora spent more and more time with Bo, either at the police station or fighting the lawsuit in court.
After Matthew won the lawsuit and found a doctor in Seattle who would perform the surgery, Clint loaned Nora and Bo the private jet so they could fly Matthew to London so he couldn't have the surgery. When Matthew went missing from the school, Clint flew to London to be with Nora, unaware that Nora and Bo had admitted their love to one another and were prepared to reunite. Clint was forced to leave as quickly as he had arrived after Mitch Laurence resurfaced in Napa Valley, California, and put Jessica and Natalie's lives in danger. Clint consoled Natalie after Jared died after being shot by Mitch, and was relieved when Nora and Bo came back for Jared's funeral. Kimberly Andrews, an ex-stripper from Las Vegas, arrived at the Buchanan mansion on the day of Jared's funeral and lied to Clint that Jared had agreed to hire her as Clint's new executive assistant just before he died. Clint first told Kim to resubmit her resume, but after she cried about having quit her job to take the new position, Clint reconsidered and told her she was hired. While Nora and Bo were off visiting Matthew in Seattle, Nigel's look-alike cousin Neville pretended to be Nigel and told Clint that his wife and brother were having an affair, and that both David Vickers and Kevin Buchanan knew about it. Kim, who had arranged for Neville to tell Clint about the affair, urged Clint to get even with Nora. Clint then arranged for Nora to walk in on him and Kimberly in bed together. Nora couldn't believe it when Clint told her that he had been having an affair with Kim, but as Clint started filling in the details, Nora realized that Clint was really talking about her and Bo. Clint told Nora he only staged the dalliance with Kim so she could feel the betrayal he felt. As Nora prepared to leave the mansion with Bo, Clint drew a rifle on them and berated them for carrying on behind his back. After Nora left, Clint told Bo he was no longer his brother. Clint then went to Kim's apartment and they shared a bottle of liquor. Clint told Kim he knew all about her past in Las Vegas and Kim admitted that Jared never hired her, that she only pretended so she could get to meet him. Clint then stunned Kim by not firing her, saying she could still prove useful to him.
Dorian arrived at Clint's with a photo of Nora and Bo in a lip-lock at the Buchanan lodge and Clint urged Dorian to "fire his ass." Clint secretly provided journalists with details of the affair and they put Dorian on the spot during the mayor's ball, giving her an opening to fire Bo. Clint was pleased with himself, and when the clock struck midnight to ring in 2010, he pulled in Kim for a kiss. When Kim was forced to move out of her apartment with Stacy, Clint offered her a room at the mansion with him and she excitedly agreed. Clint served Nora with divorce papers and asked for $42 million in damages. When Nora's attorney threatened to sell the mansion, which was in Nora's name, Clint agreed to drop the request for damages in exchange for Nora signing over ownership of the mansion to him. When David threatened to tell his Uncle Clint that Kim arranged for Neville to tell Clint the truth about Nora and Bo, Kim surprised David by coming clean with Clint. Clint thanked Kim for looking out for him when no one else would.
After Kim's best friend Stacy Morasco died in a tragic accident shortly after giving birth to a baby girl, Kim told Clint that Stacy wanted her to raise her baby if anything happened to her. Kim asked Clint to marry him to help her win custody over the baby's father and aunt, who were battling each other for custody. Clint agreed, but said Kim would need to sign a prenuptial agreement written to ensure Kim would lose all monetary claims to the Buchanan fortune if she cheated on Clint during their marriage. Kim reluctantly signed the papers and, during a brief ceremony in the Buchanan mansion's living room, exchanged "I dos" with Clint before a justice of the peace. When Clint told Natalie about the marriage, she lashed out on him but was put in her place by Clint and Viki, who told Clint she approved of the marriage so long as Clint had both eyes open. Just weeks after their marriage, however, Clint returned home to find Kim with her bags packed. When Clint demanded an explanation, Kim revealed how she and Stacy had conspired to get Stacy pregnant and keep the truth about Sierra's parentage from the true father, Oliver Fish. When Clint signaled he was willing to forgive Kim's duplicity, Kim then claimed she had cheated on him after their wedding. Clint maintained a stiff upper lip, pretending not to have developed feelings for Kim, even as she told him she did care for him and would never forget him.
After Bo was shot, Clint visited at the hospital and told his brother that he couldn't imagine life without him. He told Nora that she and Bo belonged together. But when Bo and Nora told Clint soon after that they were getting remarried, Clint's bitterness returned and he admitted that Kim had left him. Bo and Nora invited Clint to the wedding, but he told them he wasn't sure he was up for it. Clint appeared to be a no-show at the wedding, but before Nora and Clint could exchange their vows, Clint barged into the church carrying a loaded shotgun. Everyone assumed he was gunning for Bo and Nora, but it turned out his wrath was aimed at David, who was presiding over the ceremony. Clint said he had found out from Nigel that David had forced Kim to leave. Viki calmed Clint down and the wedding resumed. Clint later told Viki that he had not been able to find Kim, despite his best efforts.
Clint got mixed up with Dorian again when he agreed to pretend to be dating her so she could get David Vickers off her back. In exchange for Clint's help, Dorian agreed to make sure Clint would get the winning bid for naming rights for the new sports stadium. But Clint put an end to his arrangement with Dorian when David agreed to give him a thumb drive containing all of the information he had dug up on Kim. David promised Clint that he would be able to locate Kim using the information contained on the thumb drive. But when Clint still couldn't track down Kim, he put a plan in motion to get even with David. Right before David was about to marry Dorian, he was tackled by a group of men hired by Clint and carried off to a prison in Morocco. Clint arrived to tell David he wouldn't be getting out of jail for 20 years.
With David safely locked away, Clint put another phase of his revenge plan in motion by convincing Matthew to start interning at Buchanan Enterprises -- an action he knew Bo would not approve of. Clint further irritated his younger brother by beginning to date Bo's new executive assistant, Inez Salinger.
After Matthew caught Rex stealing files from Clint's office, Clint admitted to Rex that he had notified Moroccan authorities as to David's whereabouts so David would be arrested on prior charges. When Rex threatened to tell everything to Bo, Clint threatened to have Rex locked up for espionage. Clint demonstrated his power by having Gigi's university grant revoked. After Rex agreed to stay quiet, Clint arranged for Gigi to get offered a teaching assistant job at the university so she could continue her studies. In the meantime, Clint had Gigi's grant given to Inez's son James, who was unable to pay for school after his brother Robert got fired as a professor for having an inappropriate relationship with student Langston Wilde. Eager to win Inez's affections, Clint offered to put in a good word for Robert with the university dean so he could get his teaching job back. Clint was furious when Jessica later told him that Robert Ford could be the father of her baby, resulting from a one-night stand when she thought she was a teenager. Clint had Ford beat up by his hired goons, but Clint told Ford that he could keep his job for the time being because he wanted to spare Inez learning what her son had done.
Clint got a bitter reminder of a past indiscretion when former flame Echo DiSavoy showed up in Llanview after being gone for more than two decades. Clint and Viki both hired investigators to find out what Echo had been doing since she was run out of town for having an affair with Clint while he was married to Viki and framing him for murder. Rex Balsom learned Echo had returned to town nearly a year after she originally left and questioned Clint, but Clint claimed to have no idea why she would have returned. Echo rattled Clint when she brought out a heart-shaped necklace that he had given her after returning from a business trip to New Mexico while they were having their affair. Clint claimed not to remember giving it to her, but in fact he hired someone to return to New Mexico and retrieve the other half of the necklace, which Rex had left on the gravesite of the woman he believed to be his mother. Dorian saw Clint with the other half of the necklace, and he claimed he had purchased it for someone.
During a private confrontation, Echo admitted to Clint that she was Rex's mother and that he was the father. Echo said she learned she was pregnant after leaving Llanview and moving to New Mexico with her brother Giles. She returned to Llanview with Rex after giving birth but realized the baby would be resented if she forced him on Clint and Viki, who had since reunited. So she left the baby at the hospital with half of the heart necklace, keeping the other half to remind her of her child. Clint stunned Echo by revealing that he had known the truth since early 2009, when he learned his bone marrow was a perfect genetic match for Shane, who had been diagnosed with leukemia. Clint said he was relieved when Stacy stepped forward with the matching bone marrow so he didn't have to come forward himself. Clint even concocted an elaborate ruse to throw Rex off the trail and make him think his parents were Lili and Rick, who were actually fictional characters in a book written by Asa's grandmother Blaize Pardee.
Clint threatened to have Rex sent to jail for corporate espionage for breaking into BE if Echo revealed Clint was Rex's father. So when Echo finally admitted the truth to Rex, she claimed that Charlie was Rex's father. After Bo realized that Clint could be Rex's father, Viki demanded a DNA test. Dorian told Clint she knew he had the other half of the necklace that Echo had given to Rex as a baby, but Clint told her she was mistaken. When Viki confronted Clint, Clint gave her the necklace and said his private investigator had uncovered proof that Echo had made up the tale and hired people in Santa Fe to back up her story. Clint had one of his BE associates create a hospital identification card and enter the lab to change the results of Rex's paternity test, as well as the test Jessica had undergone to find out of Brody or Ford was the father of her baby. Before Clint could learn if the results had been changed, he was summoned to Rex's loft to learn the results of his paternity test. The tests showed Charlie as Rex's father, and Clint breathed a sigh of relief. His associate also assured Clint that he had changed the paternity tests for his daughter's baby to name Brody Lovett as the father.
Clint next turned his sights on getting revenge on Bo and Nora for betraying him. He shocked Inez on Thanksgiving Day by telling her he wanted her to sleep with Bo. Clint threatened to make life miserable for her and her sons if she didn't comply. Inez made Clint promise to make her ex-husband, Eddie Ford, disappear from town if she slept with Bo. But in fact, Clint enlisted Eddie's help in his scheme. Promising Eddie a large cash reward, Clint had Eddie kidnap Nora and send text messages from her phone to Bo, telling Bo that he should sleep with Inez to even the score over her affair years ago with Sam Rappaport. Clint then arranged for Matthew to walk in on Bo and Inez together so he could turn Matthew against his parents. Clint was thrilled to learn that his plan had worked and that Nora had kicked Bo out of the house after she learned of his indiscretion. Inez later came clean to Bo and Nora, however, and Clint admitted everything to Bo during a tense confrontation in the stables. Bo was convinced that he had arranged for Eddie to be murdered and had planted evidence to make Inez and Nate look guilty, but a confident Clint told Bo he couldn't prove anything. Clint then arranged for Robert Ford to lose his job and for James to lose his scholarship in retaliation for Inez's betrayal. After Ford threatened to tell the cops that Clint had had him beaten up, Clint retaliated by having the $50,000 that had gone missing from Eddie's hotel room the night he was murdered planted in Ford's university office.
When Clint's adopted son Joey showed up town and announced he planned to marry Aubrey Wentworth, a woman he had met just weeks earlier, Clint pegged Aubrey as a gold digger. After Joey refused to have Aubrey sign a prenuptial agreement, Clint disinherited Joey. But Aubrey turned the tables on Clint after she learned that Clint had arranged for the DNA tests for Rex and Jessica to be switched. Aubrey threatened to expose Clint if he didn't reinstate Joey's inheritance and welcome her into the family, and Clint appeared to back down. But Clint had Aubrey's hotel room bugged and got the evidence he needed to expose Aubrey as a lying con artist. Before he could present that evidence to Joey, however, Clint's assistant Vimal revealed to everyone during Jessica and Natalie's double wedding that he had switched the DNA tests to ensure Rex was named as Charlie's son and that Jessica's baby was Brody's. The family lashed out at Clint for his actions, and Bo took him into custody. Clint gave the thumb drive from Aubrey's room to Kelly, but Cutter managed to switch out the drive with another one before Joey viewed it.
Newly married to Joey, Aubrey agreed to get the charges against Clint dropped in exchange for Clint not showing Joey the thumb drive. Clint was relieved when Vimal took the rap for switching the DNA tests and was sent to Statesville. Aubrey later forced Clint to welcome Vimal's wife Rama into the home after Joey destroyed the thumb drive. Clint's legal problems were far from over, however, when Rex uncovered video footage of Clint leaving Eddie's hotel room on the night of his murder with a gun. Clint was arrested but before his arraignment he stunned Bo and Nora by revealing that Matthew killed Eddie. Matthew had killed Eddie after running into him and realizing that he had been with Nora, who was nowhere to be found. He then called Clint, who cleaned up all the evidence.
In April 2011, Echo told Clint that she and Charlie were having an affair and that he was leaving Viki for her. Echo asked Clint not to tell Charlie that she knew all along that Charlie wasn't Rex's father, and Clint agreed after realizing that Viki and Charlie were indeed over. But Clint secretly taped Echo's confession as an insurance policy. When Echo told Clint that Shane had tried to kill himself because he was being bullied, Clint went to Rex and offered to help him get back at the bullies. But Rex told Clint he wanted nothing to do with him. Bo berated Clint for setting the stage for Matthew killing Eddie by pursuing the vendetta against Bo and Nora. Bo told Clint that he would never forgive him for what he had done and stormed off. Clint then suffered a heart attack and fell to the floor. Dorian showed up and forced Clint to admit that Echo knew all along about Rex's parentage before she would call an ambulance. Clint even gave Dorian Echo's taped confession. Clint was rushed to the hospital, where doctors told him that the delay in getting treatment had caused irreparable damage to his heart. Clint's only hope was a transplant, but because of his rare blood type a transplant was unlikely. Clint told Bo that he was dying but that he didn't want the rest of the family to know. Viki overheard the diagnosis and Clint broke down as she urged him to fight.
After learning that television reporter Bianca Morales was going to report that Matthew had killed Eddie Ford, Clint confessed to the murder on live television and also confessed to all of his other crimes. Clint agreed to give Cutter Wentworth $1 million and the deed to the Buchanan mansion so Cutter would have Tess committed to St. Ann's. Rex lashed out at Clint for failing to acknowledge him as his son on television, and Clint suffered another heart attack. Clint was put to the top of the heart donor list, but the doctors warned him that he may die before a heart became available. Clint was stunned when an enraged Nora told Clint that she would never allow Matthew's heart to be transplanted into him. Clint then learned that Matthew had suffered a serious brain injury and was not expected to recover. Clint told Nora he would never accept Matthew's heart, but Bo was torn over what to do. Matthew showed signs of recovery, however, so Clint prepared to meet his maker. Viki realized that Clint had confessed to killing Eddie to cover for Matthew.
Clint's prayers were answered when the doctors informed him that another heart had become available. But the family was stunned to learn that the donor was Gigi Morasco, who had become brain dead after inhaling carbon monoxide. Rex refused to allow Gigi's heart to be transplanted into Clint and presented a signed document that gave him power over her medical decisions. But Rex ultimately reconsidered, on the condition that Clint hand over all of his assets, including the company and the mansion. Clint invoked a clause in his contract with Cutter that allowed him to take back control over the house, and he transferred ownership to Rex. Gigi's heart was transplanted into Clint, and he made a full recovery.
In August 2011, Clint was released from the hospital and appeared in court to answer the criminal charges against him. Nora withdrew the murder charge, without revealing that the real killer was her own son, and Clint pleaded guilty to the long list of charges stemming from the DNA tampering and David's imprisonment. The judge ordered Clint held without bail as he awaited sentencing. Clint was sentenced to 20 years in prison, but after Clint's family and physician argued that his health was not good, the judge agreed to let Clint stay confined to his house. Clint told the judge he didn't have a house anymore because his son had stolen it from him. To prevent Clint from going to Statesville, Viki offered up her home and Clint moved in to Llanfair.
Clint was shocked when his ex-wife, Kimberly Andrews, showed up at Llanfair. Kim evaded Clint's questions about why she had left town in the first place. Kim told Clint that she was caring for a sick friend in a hospital in Kentucky and wanted his investment advice so she could make some money to pay for her friend's hospital bills. Clint offered to have Kim's friend transferred to Llanview Hospital to ensure she got the best care, but Kim explained that her friend couldn't be moved. Clint hired Rex to track down Kimberly's friend and Rex reported back that Kim's friend had been discharged from the hospital, so Clint knew that Kim's story was not true. Clint later got a letter from Kim, indicating that she had met someone else and was no longer interested in him.
Cutter then tried to blackmail Clint with a document in which Rex appeared to sign over all of his assets. Clint phoned Rex, who had just learned from Roxy that the document was a fake, and told Cutter to take his phony document and shove it. Rex told Clint he would hand over everything to Clint voluntarily, because he realized that the money did nothing to make his life better. Clint offered to let Rex and Shane stay in the mansion for as long as they wanted, saying he wanted the mansion to stay in the family.
In November, Clint received a one-time reprieve from his house detention so he could walk Natalie down the aisle in her wedding to Brody. But the wedding turned into another Buchanan fiasco when Tina showed up with baby Liam's real paternity test, which proved that John was the father of Natalie's child, not Brody. Natalie was devastated when Brody admitted that he had known all along and broke things off with him. Cord impulsively proposed to Tina and she agreed to get married, and Clint surprisingly supported his son's fourth attempt to achieve wedded bliss with Tina. Clint and Viki grew closer, meanwhile, and Clint began hinting that he wanted to pursue a relationship with Viki again. He pulled Viki into a passionate kiss then told Viki that nothing was standing in his way, explaining that he had received Kim's letter breaking it off with him. Viki felt like Clint had chosen her only after Kim was off the market and abruptly left town.
While she was gone, Kim returned to Llanview, intent on giving Clint a piece of her mind since she had received a letter from him saying he wanted nothing to do with her. But Clint explained that he had never sent Kim that letter and had received his own letter from Kim in which she claimed to have met another man. They both realized that Cutter had sent the letters to keep Clint from trying to track Kim down. Kim wanted to be with Clint, but Clint told her that he also had developed feelings for his ex-wife Viki. Kim pulled Clint into a kiss, hoping to sway his decision, not realizing that Viki had just returned home and saw the kiss from the doorway. Forced to choose, Clint chose Viki and Kim told her cowboy goodbye. An angry Viki told Clint that she had seen him kissing Kim, but Clint explained that it was a goodbye kiss and that he had told Kim that there was only one woman for him - Viki. Clint and Viki shared a tender embrace.
Clint and Viki were shocked when Rex and Shane arrived from Paris, Texas, and revealed that Gigi was actually alive, explaining that Gigi's sister Stacy was the one who had died and donated her heart to Clint. Rex proposed to Gigi at Llanfair, and they were married on New Year's Eve 2011. As a new year dawned, a massive power failure occurred and Llanview soon was overrun with inmates who had escaped from Statesville Prison. Clint encountered Mitch holding a gun on Natalie at Llanfair and was quickly knocked out by Mitch. Natalie was gone when Clint awoke, and soon Mitch called Viki to demand that she hand over Jessica in exchange for Natalie. Over Clint and Viki's objections, Jessica agreed to go with John to the church where Mitch was holding Natalie. Clint and Viki waited at Llanfair and soon were cornered by Allison Perkins, who had escaped as well. Armed with a gun, Allison informed Viki and Clint that she no longer took orders from anyone and was taking advice from Oprah to empower herself. Allison claimed that she'd arranged the prison escape and complained that everyone else got credit for her work.
Allison appeared ready to kill Viki and Clint but instead fired into a vase. Allison then began rambling on about the time she kidnapped Natalie at birth and replaced her with Jessica, and how she felt obligated to please Mitch and tell him what he wanted to hear even if it wasn't exactly true. As Viki and Clint struggled to understand what Allison was trying to say, Allison suddenly announced that Natalie and Jessica were both Clint's biological daughters. Allison said she felt forced to tell Mitch that he was father to one of Viki's unborn babies because it's what he wanted to hear and he would have killed her if he learned the truth. Allison said she faked the DNA test to show Mitch as Jessica's father. Allison said she tried to tell Jessica the truth several years earlier but Jessica refused to listen to her. Frustrated that Viki and Clint were skeptical about her story, Allison impulsively shot Viki. As Clint tended to Viki, Allison began chanting her name around the room and declared, "My aim is true!" before escaping. Clint then collapsed from heart failure.
Clint took an out-of-body trip to a location somewhere between Heaven and Hell, where he met Stacy Morasco and learned that he was destined to spend eternity in Hell for all the bad things he had done. Clint knew he belonged with Viki and raced through a door that led him to a brighter location where Viki was being counseled by her deceased daughter, Megan. Megan sent them both back to Earth, where they awoke to find Natalie and John trying to revive them. While recovering in the hospital, Clint paid Vimal to run a DNA test to determine if Jessica was his biological daughter. Vimal presented Clint and Viki with the results at Llanfair, and Clint told Viki to read them first. She showed the results to Clint as Jessica and Natalie entered the room. Clint explained what Allison had told them and told Jessica that that he was her biological father after all. Jessica couldn't believe her good fortune. Alone in the living room, Clint told Viki that he had wasted too much time and got down on one knee to propose to Viki.
Clint hoped to marry Viki after his house detention was lifted. However, Viki was focused on saving the Banner and refused to let Clint solve her financial problems with an influx of his personal funds. As they worked to find a solution for the paper, Natalie and Viki learned that Clint had filed a restraining order which prevented John from having any contact with Natalie's son. Clint had done so without Natalie's consent. Although Clint believed he had acted in his daughter's best interest, Viki and Natalie disagreed.
Clint's relationship with Natalie was repaired but his connection to Viki continued to wane. Clint lied to Viki regarding an investment she had made and continued to deceive her whenever Viki asked him for the truth. The investment bankrupted Viki but Clint tried to shield her from the loss using his money. When Viki learned the truth, she realized she could not trust her fiancé and she ended their engagement. Clint begged for another chance and turned to alcohol after Viki refused to take him back. He also took his pills, unaware that Jeffrey King had tampered with them. Clint displayed his intoxication publically twice, once which led to his arrest after he assaulted a bouncer and a second time which led to sedation and hospitalization after he interrupted the "Man of the Year" gala. While Clint was in the hospital, Allison Perkins stood over his bed with a syringe.

Michael Rapaport's love story with his wife, Kebe Rapaport (née Dunn), spans decades.
The I Am Rapaport podcast host and actress first dated in the '90s before going their separate ways. Michael went on to marry television producer and writer Nichole Beattie in 2000, and they welcomed two children together, sons Julian and Maceo.
After Michael and Nichole divorced in 2007, he shared his perspective on marriage in an interview with Celebrity Dirty Laundry. “I think marriage is like a job. It’s a work in progress," the Fallout star said in 2012. "I don’t think there are any secrets to it. You have to put into it as much as you want to get out of it."
Although Michael has not publicly shared how he and Kebe reconnected, the couple were spotted at a New York Knicks game together in 2012. The actors eventually married in 2016 after several years of dating.
Today, the couple are incredibly close and often post heartfelt messages about each other on social media. In 2021, Kebe wrote a touching birthday tribute to Michael, which read in part, “Fearless and Funniest person I know. The most generous. The most complex temperamental sensitive loving creature. My other best friend.”
While Michael has not revealed many details about his relationship with Kebe, he told Celebrity Dirty Laundry: “I think the most important thing in any relationship, whether it’s a marriage or a girlfriend, even your friends, you have to maintain a certain amount of communication and level of respect for each other.”
So who is Michael Rapaport's wife? Here’s everything to know about Kebe Rapaport and her relationship with the fellow actor.
She is an actress
Like Michael, Kebe is an actress who has starred in different kinds of projects, including a commercial with Yvette Nicole Brown and a season 7 episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm alongside Larry David and Jeff Garlin.
She dated Michael in the 1990s
While Michael and Kebe haven't revealed how they originally met, the actors dated in the early '90s and were photographed attending Hollywood events together.
Fast forward, Kebe posted the first photo of Michael on her Instagram in the summer of 2011. The close-up snap was of the Only Murders in the Building star sitting in a car. Since then, she has shared a multitude of throwback pictures of them from the '90s.
“Selfies in 1992. HVD 💕Love on it all. @michaelrapaport," Kebe captioned a photo of them to celebrate Valentine's Day in 2020. “93 til infinity,” she wrote next to a snap of Michael kissing her on the cheek.
According to one of her social media posts from 2014, Michael and Kebe broke up sometime in 1994 before reuniting decades later.
"Flash back to that time when Bae messed stuff up and took a Sistah to Cabo to try to clean stuff up. Cut to 20 year hiatus," she captioned a selfie of her and Michael with the hashtags "happytobeback," "love" and "truestory."
She married Michael in 2016
Michael and Kebe tied the knot on Dec. 23, 2016, and the pair have kept details about their nuptials mostly private.
On their third wedding anniversary in 2019, Kebe gave Michael a shout-out for the special occasion. "Everything is better with you. Happy Anniversary @michaelrapaport you bring me joy🖤," she wrote on Instagram.
She echoed a similar sentiment the following year when he gifted her a festive bouquet of roses to honor their relationship milestone.
“I love being married to you @michaelrapaport for so many reasons. Happy Anniversary to us!” Kebe shared.
She and Michael love reality TV
Michael and Kebe are avid watchers of reality TV shows and enjoy discussing their thoughts online.
Back in March 2023, the actor posted a video of them giving their two cents about The Bachelor and that same month, the couple also reacted to a particular scene on The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
One year later, Michael and Kebe launched their podcast, Rapaport's Reality, which focuses on reality TV shows. According to their joint Instagram post, Kebe introduced Michael to the genre, and he's become an expert in everything Bravo-related.
Most recently, in April 2024, Michael and Kebe were walking around West Hollywood, California, and wanted to stop by TomTom and Schwartz and Sandy's, which are businesses owned by Vanderpump Rules stars Tom Sandoval and Tom Schwartz. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like they were able to confirm whether the spots were open.
They love fashion
Michael and Kebe have an affinity for clothes, as the Atypical alum told GQ in 2021.
In his interview with the outlet, Michael revealed that Kebe enjoys shopping and that he likes buying her items, such as bags and clothes.
That said, the actor also has a passion for fashion and revealed that one of his favorite clothing lines is Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen’s The Row. “I love it. I love the brand. I love the classic nature of it. I love the fit. I love the materials,” he said.
Michael and Kebe make each other laugh
Given Michael's comedian background, he often creates funny videos with Kebe, which they share on social media.

Fellowship Program
The Rappaport Fellows Program in Law and Public Policy provides gifted students committed to public policy careers with opportunities to experience the complexities and rewards of public policy and public service within the highest levels of state and municipal governments.
Each year, the Center selects 12 Fellows through a competitive application and interview process. The program includes a $10,000 stipend and coveted summer internships, during which students work with top policy makers and are mentored by members of the Rappaport Center Advisory Board, prior Rappaport Fellows, and respected attorneys in the field, focusing on issues of particular importance to Greater Boston and Massachusetts residents. These mentoring relationships are in addition to the designated supervisor in each summer placement.
The Fellows participate in weekly experiential learning opportunities to explore the intersection of law and public policy.
The Rappaport Fellowships offer an intense, up-close, first-hand look at the life of public policy lawyers and the influence these legal professionals have on the quality of life in our community, state, and region. The Fellows also contribute important intellectual capital to state and local government.
The Rappaport Fellows Program aims to shape future civic leaders and policy makers to make a real difference in society.
The Fellowships are available to law students from eight Massachusetts law schools:

Acting wasn’t even on the radar when Tom Degnan left home. He made haste for South Bend, Ind., where he studied finance at the University of Notre Dame. It wasn’t until an Introduction to Theatre class, taken for the “fine arts requirement,” hooked him.
After acting school and a move to Manhattan, Degnan first made a name for himself in the world of daytime soaps, starring as Joey Buchanan on “One Life to Live.” But it’s been his role as Agent Ike, a recurring character on the hit CBS show “Limitless,” where he’s truly evolved. This follow-up to the 2011 box office hit starring Bradley Cooper (who reprises his role in the TV show), follows Brian Finch, an ordinary, not-living-up-to-his potential type of guy, who stumbles upon the brain-enhancing drug NZT-48 and is hired by the FBI to solve cases. As one of two agents hired to follow Finch’s every move, Agent Ike is a likable character brought brilliantly to life by Degnan.
On a day off from taping the final three episodes of the season, Degnan took some time to chat about his role on the show, his acting career and his memories of spending his early years in Philly.
You’ve been cast in roles on numerous shows, from “White Collar” to “Madam Secretary” and, of course, “One Life to Live.” Has there been any particular character or genre you’ve liked most?
Honestly, it’s just getting to explore different characters that I love most about acting. Any time you get a script, you have to figure out who the character is and what you are going to do to bring that character to life. It’s very fulfilling. I don’t have a favorite, but there will always be the challenge of breaking the mold of how people perceive you.
You’ve certainly done a lot of drama, and while “Limitless” is a drama, Agent Ike is pretty funny. Is comedy in your future?
I certainly would like it to be. I enjoy comedy as much as drama, and having an opportunity to do a little bit of comedy through this role has been a really nice balance. The show absolutely has strong dramatic aspects to it, but it also allows itself to be light and fun—and the writers and producers have given us the ability to have some fun as we bring the characters to life.
Do you have a lot of childhood memories of the area?
I was born in Bristol and spent the earlier part of my childhood in Yardley, where I have wonderful memories of our house in Bucks County. My earliest memories include family trips to Sesame Place. We then moved to South Jersey and I grew up in Moorestown and lived there until I was 18. I still very much have connections to the area. I was just back with my fiancé to catch the NCAA games, and we got cheesesteaks and walked around Rittenhouse Square. Whenever I get back to Philadelphia I enjoy going for walks down South Street or around Old City. I have always had so much respect for Philadelphia—particularly the arts. My parents were always members of the Walnut Street Theatre, and there’s no question that a lot of talent comes out of Philly. In 2012 I also had an unbelievable opportunity to perform at the Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival in Center Valley. It’s incredible there—something everyone should get out to see.
Can you tell us a little about what your future holds?
In terms of acting, my focus right now is definitely on “Limitless.” (At press time, Degnan was shooting the final three episodes of the season, which wrapped up in April.) Being on “Limitless” has been a dream. It’s a wonderful cast, and I can’t say enough good things about what it’s been like to work with them. I’m also getting married this summer [to “The Astronaut Wives Club” star Erin Cummings], so wedding planning and my wonderful fiancé are the focus of a lot of my attention. My mind is always on the future, though, and my goal is to continue to evolve as an actor.

Jennifer Rappaport (formerly Balsom and Buchanan) is a fictional character on the American daytime drama One Life to Live, portrayed by Jessica Morris from January 2001 to May 2005. Morris reappeared as Jennifer in a dream sequence on October 1, 2008.
Storylines[]
Jennifer arrives in Llanview in January 2001 as a student at Llanview University. She struggles between being a selfish conniver like her mother Lindsay Rappaport and being more virtuous and moral like her father Sam. Jen is paired with Cristian Vega, but when she discovers that Cristian is falling in love with Natalie Buchanan, Jennifer sleeps with Al Holden. Jennifer becomes pregnant and claims that the baby is Cristian's. However, during their wedding ceremony in the fall of 2002, Jen miscarries, and she and Cristian end their relationship.
In 2003, Jennifer starts to transform her life following the murder of her father (which was committed by her mother). She soon finds herself in a tug of war for her heart and soul between the newly returned Joey Buchanan, now a clergyman, and resident bad boy Rex Balsom. Jen is married to both men in the summer of 2003, eloping with Rex first, then annulling that marriage before getting married in a more traditional ceremony to Joey in August. She then learns that she was pregnant with Joey's child, only to miscarry after a bumpy motorcycle ride on Rex's bike. Jen begins taking birth control pills behind Joey's back. But, it's not long before Joey finds out. That, topped with Jen having an affair with Rex, Joey and Jen divorce. Shortly afterward, Joey takes a leave of absence from the church and moves to London.
In 2004, Jen befriends local rocker Riley Colson. Riley's girlfriend, Sarah Roberts is attacked by the Music Box Killer, and her father Cord Roberts whisks her away to London to recover. Jen helps Riley heal after he receives a letter from Flash, breaking up with him. Later, Riley begins working on his final paper, and due to stress, he decides to buy the paper off of the Internet. He quickly changes his mind, and does the paper himself. Riley falls asleep before handing in the paper, so Jen does the favor for him. But, Jen hands in the paper purchased from the Internet, and Riley receives a failing grade. The community center burns down, and in order for Riley, Jen, Marcie Walsh, and several others to revive their failing grade to a passing one, they work together to re-build the community center. After several sabotages on the construction site, the community center begins to come together, and the project is soon complete, now referred to as the Love Center. After Jen experiences a handful of sleep walking incidences at night, where she would crawl into Riley's bed, she and Riley decide to pursue a relationship. Several months later, Jen breaks up with Riley when he can't bring himself to believe that Jen had no involvement in the murder of Paul Cramer. Jen once again becomes close to Rex.
Her relationship with Riley back on track, the evidence in Paul's murder investigation begins piling up on Jen. As Jen is leaving her mother's art gallery, she catches Riley's father, Daniel planting evidence in her car. Jen threatens to call the police, but she never gets the chance to after she is suffocated by Daniel. With plans to get away with double homicide murder, Daniel makes Jen's death look suicidal. The police begin to close in on Daniel, and he is arrested by Bo Buchanan as he is about to become Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania. Daniel is soon sent to prison.

More points if the character was central to the show and the actor lasted much much longer than he or she should have.

Laurence Lau recast as Sam Rappaport on OLTL. Sam was old enough to be Todd's father and in fact was a surrogate father to Todd and suddenly here comes tiny, very young even for his age little Laurence Lau as Sam. I really stopped watching around then but I can't imagine how much further the ridiculousness got. It had to totally destroy the Sam/Todd relationship and if it was still going on the Sam Blair relationship too for Sam now looked young enough to be Todd and Blair's son.
As far as Tina on OLTL I couldn't stand EV or any of the Tina's or the character.
LOL on Crawford taking over for her daughter. I remember my dad was home during the day at that time because of a strike or shift change or something and my mom faithfully watched Secret Storm. My dad could not get over old Crawford playing the 24 year old character. He would laugh his way through the show every day she was on, especially when she was doing scenes with the young actor who played Christina's character's husband or boyfriend or whatever. I think that was one of Joan's biggest embarrassments. Just cringe worthy.
R105 Which is why it is understandable to prefer one portrayal over the other. That's a matter of taste. I personally thought that, while a different take, her character was not a wide departure from who Timmins was portraying. A different kind of spunky and sexy but spunky and sultry nevertheless. But I continue to say that the general consensus that Evans "ruined" the character is unfair to her and is entirely linked to late-era-Paulina which was indeed dreadful but because of the writing. She didn't change the character in a completely different direction: they did.
Let me offer a parallel: I think we can all agree that Anna Stuart was a vastly superior Donna Love than Philece Sampler. Not because Philece Sampler was not a good actress. And she clearly had a different take on the character but it was still by large Donna Love. So no one thinks she "ruined" the character. She just wasn't as great. You may or may not think Judy Evans was "as great" as Paulina but the reason we consider her character "ruined" was due to the writing, several years after the recast.
Now you might argue that the writing went in that direction because of things that were inherent to Judy Evans - like her real-life pregnancies and weight gain. I say that's because the writing teams of those last six years were absolutely crap with no imagination or respect for the show.
[quote]Gellar was very good earlier in her stint in AMC.
Gellar's first year was great, she was kind of one note the second year. I am not sure if it was because she was bored, or if it was due to the growing fued with Lucci, or simply the story lines were pretty weak post-Richard Fields (although I liked her relationship with Janet). There was also a bit more of a mystery with Kendell her first year - you were not sure whether she wanted to destroy Erica or be accepted by her (and not sure Kendell herself knew). After she lied about Dimitiri raping her, she was much more of a two-dimensional villain and her performance was less layered. Much more one-note shouting.
I did not watch Buffy through the end of the series, but I heard her performance on that show in later years also became a bit more flat, as if she had become bored with the show.
R40 It was HILARIOUS how then EP Paul Rauch and head writer Maria Arena Bell tried to sell the Darius McCrary recast of "Malcolm Winters." .. From their interview with Michael Fairman:
---------------
MICHAEL:When the two of you are in auditions together, do you know immediately when the right actor walks in for the part you are casting?
MARIA: We have been really in sync, such as the character of Daisy. When Yvonne Zima came in to read for that role, it was like, “Wow, did she pop!” She made us go, “Oh, my gosh. She is fantastic!” You just feel it…. that everything we have talked about in regards to that character, and then that person walks in, you know it. It was also true of Darius.
PAUL: The Darius McCray audition was one of the greatest the network had seen in 20 years.
MARIA: The quality of the actors that were up for the role was extraordinarily high. Everyone who came in for the final audition, and there were four in the finals, they were all fantastic. They were all very different from one another, and in the end, it was about this kind of special quality that Darius had. We just felt that “Star Quality”.
---------------
Meanwhile, viewers were like, you can't be serious!?. .. Malcom is supposed to be a fashion photographer, and Darius couldn't even hold and operate a camera properly.
The Reverend story was an example of a soap shooting itself in the foot trying to have a shocking twist. They could have simply had him be someone who had killed someone drunken driving and Brooke might have gotten past it, but they had to have the shocking twist he was Laura's killer with plastic surgery so she did not recognize him. Of course the actor was about a foot taller than the original driver and aged about 15 years (the cop who ran over Laura was a peer of Cecily ). The audience could not buy that Brooke would ever forgive him (and they were right) so he was gone. Too bad, because I liked the actor and he had chemistry with Brooke.
I have no idea what they were thinking when they had Brooke be involved with a child pornographer -- who of course had happened to victimize Laura. Then they have her shoot him in the back and go on trial for murder claiming justifiable homicide.
Great actress great character, and perfect foil for Erica, but I am not sure she truly had a good story line after Edmund and the ill-advised marriage to Tad (which also seemed out of character, since she was smart enough to know Tad really loved Dixie and Brooke was at a point where she did to marry a man just because he was the father of her child).
So Brooke was involved with the revolving Piereces to dating the person who did pornos with her underage daughter Laura (and also murdered a plane full of people), to dating a reverend who had a complete face reconstruction so she could not recognize him as the person who killed her other daughter (whose name her adopted daughter shared making their initial story line have a bit of a creepy stalker feel to it). Later Laura the second was recast by an actress so bad, people cheered for Greenlee to toss her off a boat and they ended up writing her off as crazy.
Later after years of fans wanting her back with Edmund they had them marry only to have Brooke again act out of character and hide the fact that Maria, Edmund;s wife did not die on the plane crash cause by Brooke's ex-boyfriend [who she killed] but was alive. This was also when I knew AMC was never coming back and might have stopped watching for the most part. They had a triangle with a lot of history and good chemistry between all the characters and immediately got rid of one of the parties and instead brought in pretty boy Aiden with no history to be the tension in the triangle and had Maria run around in a bikini like she was 20 years old.
Finally they ended up taking her off contract and just had her disappear - no exit story and just some rare random references that she was somewhere on assignment. They really did not treat her like she deserved to be treated. At least she was used well with Adam's exit and the finale and had some good scenes with Adam and with Erica.
I'm trying to remember the timing on the Faux Silver story. I think she may have started in the summer of '82, when I was watching over school break. Then she started to go from duckling to swan in late '82, and I caught those episodes on Thanksgiving and Christmas break. Kent probably died early '83, so I caught up over winter break, and I remember Erica hiding out at the boardinghouse so that was probably spring break. But then when summer rolled around, Silver was gone, and when I heard how they finished the storyline I was a little let down.
Watching those clips, I feel much the same way. It could be the way they're edited, but the whole story seems so rushed at the end. Tad shows up with the info and a week or two later, Silver's gone. I really felt like they could have played it out a little further. (Or even better, kept Silver around as a villain, like Heather Webber.)
Wasn't Brian's (Matt;s) return always supposed to be short term? Part of the problem with his return is that they changed the character. I barely remember it - but I think he was now a slick Hollywood type where he had been an honest salt of the earth character during his first run of the show.
Hayley and Mateo had good chemistry, but I thought it was mistake to tied a daughter of Adam Chandler to one man and settling down as the owner of a bar, esp. since they did it while she was in early twenties. She should have been involved with some of the corporate intrigue and had a number of relationships instead of just basically becoming Mrs. Mateo Santos. They really seemed reluctant to truly break them up. I think the most they ever even went was having Hayley kiss Ryan (who she actually had chemistry with) and Mateo being manipulated by the mother of his unknown child.

Clint Buchanan arrives in Llanview, Pennsylvania in September 1979, soon followed by his brother Bo in November and their father Asa in December 1979. Clint marries central heroine Victoria Lord Riley in 1982, cementing the family's prominence in the series.
Clint adopts Viki's sons Kevin and Joey Riley, and in 1986 discovers he has an adult son, Cord Roberts, with old flame Maria. Clint and Viki have a daughter of their own, Jessica, that same year. In 2001 it is revealed that Viki had been pregnant with twins, one fathered by Clint and the other by Viki's nemesis Mitch Laurence; Jessica turns out to be Mitch's daughter, and Clint and Viki's child — kidnapped at birth — is a young woman named Natalie. On January 6, 2012, Allison Perkins revealed that Nataile and Jessica are both biologically Clint's daughters.
In 1983, Bo and Becky Lee Abbott have a son they name Drew, who ultimately becomes a police officer and dies in the line of duty in 1998. In February 1999, Bo fathers a son (later named Matthew) with wife Nora, though Matthew is thought to be Sam Rappaport's biological child until 2003.
Patriarch Asa marries multiple women during his decades in Llanview, and in 1999 Viki's husband Ben Davidson turns out to be Asa's biological son. Ben is shot and slips into a coma in 2002; he eventually dies in 2004. Asa passes away on August 16, 2007,[7] and it is revealed that he had believed con-man David Vickers is his son. David is ultimately proven to be Bo's biological child in 2009.
In 2010, it is revealed that Rex Balsom, the man who was raised with Natalie by Roxy Balsom, is actually Clint's son with Echo DiSavoy, who was conceived after an affair in 1983 later revised to 1978.
Buchanan Enterprises, founded by billionaire Asa Buchanan, is a multinational, family-owned corporation with offices worldwide. After visiting in Llanview in 1979, Texas-born Asa moves the headquarters of his company to Llanview in 1980 to stay close to sons Clint and Bo. As ruthless in business as he is devoted to his family, Asa's machinations (and attempts to both protect and control his family members) drive much of the drama in the series over the next two decades. In 1997, Clint's son Cord Roberts leaves Llanview for the London office of Buchanan Enterprises, and in 1998 Clint follows him. Clint returns to Llanview for good in 2005, and his adopted son Kevin later succeeds him in London in late 2006. Clint's daughter Natalie joins the company in 2007 after a failed attempt to become a police forensics investigator. Natalie's sister Jessica as well soon joins B.E. to fund her husband Nash's vineyard. Asa remained at B.E.'s helm until his death in August 2007 in which his son Clint succeed him as CEO. Asa's will forces his heirs[8] to work together as board members for the company to earn their inheritance. The usually-upstanding Clint finds himself using the underhanded tactics of his father to fend off the multiple takeover attempts of Asa's business rivals. Fueled by a desire for personal revenge against Clint, Dr. Dorian Lord plots a secret, hostile take-over of the company, which succeeds at the Buchanan Enterprises shareholder meeting on June 3, 2008.[9] Dorian renames the company Cramer Enterprises. In October 2008, District Attorney and Clint's love interest, Nora Hanen, manages to finesse Dorian into signing controlling interest of the company back to the Buchanan family in exchange for dropping potential attempted murder charges. The company is re-christened Buchanan Enterprises or BE.
In December 2008, the Buchanans gather for a video message from Asa. A year prior, Asa had stipulated in his will that the family had one year to fulfill a challenge in order to receive their inheritance: work together as a family to raise the price of BE stocks. If they succeeded, they would be rich, if they failed...they would not receive a cent. Due to the takeover commandeered by Dorian and the near collapse of the US economy, BE shares have declined. As punishment, the Buchanan inheritance is left to Asa's long-lost son, David Vickers.[10] David learns of his true parentage,[11] and soon claims what is his.[12] However, a DNA test confirms that David is instead Bo's son,[13] rendering Asa's original will null and void.
On episode first run June 28, 2011, in order for Clint Buchanan to get a heart transplant and live, he was forced to give his estranged son Rex Balsom Buchanan Enterprises. In return, Clint would get Rex's finances, Gigi Morasco's heart. All existing shares, funds and properties were signed over to Rex Balsom. On the October 21 episode of that year, Rex Balsom returned all of the Buchanan holdings to its rightful owner Clint Buchanan.

Will Rappaport was sent to Llanview by his mother, Lindsay, to stay the summer with his parents before he went off to college. On the plane to Chicago, Will met a mystery girl, Roseanne Delgado, with whom he was intrigued. Later, Will discovered that his mother had stayed in Las Vegas to marry Clint Buchanan. Will was introduced to his new brothers and sister, taking a liking to his step-sister Jessica. Being left alone during the day, Will found himself getting Jessica and himself into a lot of trouble, including being arrested by Drew Buchanan. After being locked-up for possession of alcohol, Will's mother told him to find a job.
Will went to see Nora Buchanan, a flame from his daddy's past (unknown to him) and was hired to be a summer intern at her law office. Trying to get him to quit his new job, Lindsay told Will that Nora was the reason for his parent's divorce, but Will soon found out that it was his mother's fling that broke up his lovely home.
One evening Will and Jessica saw Cristian and Roseanne in an embrace. Feeling they were both losing the one they truly loved, they went up to Viki's cabin and got drunk and had unprotected sex. The next morning they could barely remember the event, and Jessica was very sad to have lost her virginity in this way with someone she didn't love. Jessica got pregnant from their night together and Will wanted to proclaim he was the father, but Cristian accepted the responsibility instead. After a few months, the truth came out and the relationships of the four young people involved was never the same again. After contemplating abortion and adoption, Jessica decided to raise her baby and Will was anxious to be a father to the child.
Cristian decided to propose to Jessica and raise the baby together. Jessica accepted and they planned to go to New York together so Cristian could attend art school. At Jessica and Cristian's engagement party at Crossroads, Will and Cris got into an argument and Jessica left and went into labor. As she was walking out into the street, Dorian, who was coming to make amends with Viki, hit Jessica. Afraid of Viki's reaction she called 911 and fled the scene. Jessica ended up in a coma and had a miscarriage. When she came to, she had lost her memory and she didn't remember Cristian and she left town with Will.
Will and Jessica came back to Llanview after a few weeks even though Jessica didn't have her memory back because she had to testify against Will's mother, Lindsay Rappaport, who was on trial for Megan's murder. After she testified, she remembered that Dorian was the one who hit her at the same time that Dorian confessed. With her memory intact, Jessica went to apologize to Cristian, only to find out that he had slept with Roseanne more than once. The wedge between them kept getting bigger and bigger and Will and Roseanne started working together to keep Jessica and Christian apart. Jessica decided she didn't want to go to New York with Cristian and Roseanne went with him instead. At the last minute, Jessica decided she did want to go and Cristian was going to make one more attempt at convincing her, but he ran into Will and Jessica ran into Roseanne and they convinced them that one was happy without the other.
With Cristian out of the way, Will and Jessica started growing closer, bonding over Megan's death. Jessica began sending threatening letters to Dorian and planting tapes of a baby crying in Dorian's house. She ransacked Dorian's house and Will took the blame for it. Then Jessica sent Dorian a note telling her to meet her at Crossroad's where she planned to hit Dorian. Viki found out in time that Will was innocent and they got to Crossroads in time to witness Jessica preparing to hit Dorian. At the last minute she stopped. The whole time Jessica was haunting Dorian she had no idea she was doing it. Cristian had a feeling that Jessica might need him so he went to Llanview that same night, only to see Jessica and Will together. Jessica went to New York to tell Cristian about the haunting but there was miscommunication because Cristian thought she was there to tell him about her and Will and she thought he already knew about the haunting and just didn't care.
Meanwhile, Jessica's grandfather, Asa, didn't want Jessica with a Rappaport (Will), so he called New York to have Cristian's scholarship cancelled in hopes that Cristian would go back to Llanview. But Roseanne called Will, who worked with Asa on the Megan Foundation, and told him that if he wanted to keep Jessica he had better send some money to help them live in NY so Cristian doesn't know that his scholarship is cancelled. So Will has secretly been sending money to Roseanne. On Thanksgiving, Cristian and Roseanne came to town and Roseanne asked Will for $30,000. Will didn't have it so he borrowed it from the foundation. Jessica tried to convince herself that she was happy with Will and they slept together for the first time since Megan.
Cristian and Roseanne went back to NY and Asa finds out that Will stole from the foundation and he(Asa) sent Roseanne a check for $100,000, setting Will up for a big fall. Cristian and Jessica have no idea this money exchange is going on. Cristian and Roseanne go back to Llanview for Christmas and end up at the same hotel as Jessica and Will. Jessica and Cristian talk and they realize there was a miscommunication about the haunting. Meanwhile Will finds out that Roseanne received a check for $100,000 from him, but he didn't send it.
Jessica and Will grew closer and closer as the time went on, but in February of 2000, Bo had to arrest Will for the embezzlement that Asa caused. Jessica didn't want anything to do with him after that. Cristian and Will began to try to dig up evidence on Asa. They succeeded, and after Asa had his heart bypass surgery, Jessica became convinced that Asa set Will up. In March, Jessica went to visit her grandfather while he was recovering in Baltimore and got him to admit on tape how he set Will up. Max caught on to Jessica's plan and Max showed Asa that she had recorded him and Asa threw the tape out the window. Cristian and Jessica went to look for it and found it. On the train to Statesville, Jessica played the tape of Asa's confession to Bo, but both Bo and Nora told her that it would take months to get Will out of jail.
The train crashed and Jessica, Will, and Cristian escaped. Cristian and Jessica hid Will at Viki's cabin until Roseanne discovered them. Soon after that, they quickly went on the run. All during this time Jessica felt guilty about leaving her mother, Viki, while she struggled with breast cancer. Jessica, Cris, and Will all joined a band and Todd Manning caught them all together in Ohio. Soon after that, Todd was able to trick Will and Cris into thinking that Viki was dying so that Jessica could return home, which she did and got arrested. Out on bail, Jessica asked Cris to marry her and he agreed. They were planning their wedding when Jessica found out that Cristian had hid a letter that Will had sent to her. Upset, she broke off her engagement to Cris and went to Ireland to see Will. Thanks to Asa and Max, Will was arrested and sent back to Llanview. He was about to go to jail, when Colin traded the tape that Jessica and Will had made for immunity in Nora's kidnapping case (he had found the tape on Nora after the train wreck). The tape proved that Asa had set Will up and Will was cleared of the charges and set free.
Will and Jessica moved in together into an apartment above Break Bar. They are taking things slowly and have not yet gotten engaged. Will's sister, Jen, recently arrived in town and he has been trying to discourage her from getting involved with Cristian Vega. Will is a suspect in Colin MacIver's murder because the night Colin disappeared, Will had obviously been in a fight with someone and had cuts and bruises on his face. And when Jessica found Colin's body in the woods a few days later, Will convinced her not to tell anyone what they had found. Shortly thereafter, it was revealed that Nora had killed Colin in self-defense and blocked out her crime. Although Will was innocent, the various secrets he'd kept from Jessica took a substantial toll on their relationship. She broke up with him; although he tried to win her back, he conceded defeat after a few weeks and left Llanview. Will briefly returned a year and a half later to bury his father, Sam, and to help his sister Jen cope as they learned that Lindsay had killed their father. After helping his mother find a psychiatric home, Will returned to California.

Educate For Life

Today on Educate For Life, Kevin has two great guests to discuss the interesting connection between science and ministry. How do you get a scientist and a pastor to team up?
Dr. Anthony Silvestro grew up in a Roman Catholic family. His love for science began at an early age. Throughout his early years of education, he excelled in both mathematics and science. As a result, the secular world accomplished its goal: he became an evolutionist by the time he completed his ninth-grade biology class. This became the start of his fast-paced drift away from God. Years later after meeting his wife Julie, who was also raised Roman Catholic, God got ahold of Dr. Silvestro. On a trip to a medical conference he visited the Creation Museum and discovered that he needed to rethink everything he thought he knew about evolution. Today, he is a creationist working with churches to equip them to defend a biblical worldview.
Andrew Rappaport is the founder and president of Striving for Eternity Ministries and the executive director of the Christian Podcast Community. He is the host of several podcasts; Andrew Rappaport’s Rapp Report, Andrew Rappaport’s Rapp Report Daily, Apologetics Live, and So You Want to be a Podcaster. Andrew is the author of the books What Do They Believe, which is a systematic theology of the major western religions, and What Do We Believe, which is a systematic theology of the Christian faith. He also contributed to other books like On the Origins of Kinds and Sharing the Good News with Mormons. Andrew established Equip Conferences (formally Spread the Fire), evangelism training and outreach events. He is the instructor for the Striving for Eternity Academy, an online school that teaches hermeneutics and systematic theology.
Tune in for a great episode packed full of information.

SPEAK OUT! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Itty-Bitty GIANT Steps
SPEAK OUT! Itty-Bitty GIANT Steps
SPEAK OUT! Itty-Bitty Giant Steps will provide a venue for brain-injury survivors and caregivers to shout out their accomplishments of the week.
If you have an Itty-Bitty Giant Step and you would like to share it, just send an email to me at donnaodonnellfigurski@gmail.com.
If you are on Facebook, you can simply send a Private Message to me. It need only be a sentence or two. I’ll gather the accomplishments and post them with your name on my blog approximately once a week. (If you do not want your last name to be posted, please tell me in your email or Private Message.)
I hope we have millions of Itty-Bitty Giant Steps.
Here are this week’s Itty-Bitty Giant Steps.
Beckie (caregiver) and Jerry…An Itty-Bitty Giant Step from a spouse’s viewpoint:
I’m learning to ease off. He is still a man. He can do and think for himself – just differently. And when I do NOT micromanage, we both are better. (P.S. TBI still sucks.)
Joyce Benavidez (survivor)…Today was the anniversary of my twin birth/death. Thanks to the wonderful support and encouragement I have on Facebook, I made it through my first year without a seizure.
Sara Catherine Birch (caregiver)…My husband managed several days last week without a daytime nap. Yesterday our daughter kept him from sleeping after a shopping trip, but he still managed to make it to bedtime without shouting at any of us. Very happy.
Joey Buchanan (survivor)…I’m getting the leaves out of the pool.
Joy Cameron (survivor)…I survived (LOL). It was a hell of a week, and I am still here, fighting and putting one foot in front of the other.
Natalie Elliott (survivor)…Here’s my Itty-Bitty Giant Step: I survived Thanksgiving with family. I put the tree up, but I had to put it together four times because following a sequence is taxing and very difficult.
Debbie Madison (survivor)…I survived Thanksgiving without killing my brother! And I had a great time!
Gena Marie (survivor)…I flew on an airplane for the first time and did OK. I never thought I would make it safely, but I did.
Joshua Puckett (survivor)…Despite being engulfed by a lot of the flooding feelings this week, I was able to maintain calm throughout. I never went St. Helens. So progress. That’s my Itty-Bitty Giant Step.
Kimberly June West (survivor)…I went on a trip and didn’t have a panic-attack!!
Sandra Williams (survivor/caregiver)…I had a successful IEP (Individualized Education Program) meeting. I fought back so many flashbacks and tears. When it was over, the staff said they couldn’t even tell if I was nervous. I still battle negative thoughts, but I ate two meals today – so huge for me since I wasn’t eating but a few times a week!
YOU did it!
Congratulations to all contributors!

Survivors SPEAK OUT! Joey Buchanan
SPEAK OUT! – Joey Buchanan
by
Donna O’Donnell Figurski
1. What is your name? (last name optional)
Joey Buchanan
2. Where do you live? (city and/or state and/or country) Email (optional)
Flovilla, Georgia, USA Dekalbfd19@yahoo.com
3. When did you have your TBI? At what age?
Date of accident – July 18, 2012 Age at the time – 46
4. How did your TBI occur?
We were overhauling at a house fire (which means searching for hidden fire). I was standing against a wall, when a full sheet of sheetrock (4 ft. x 8 ft.) fell from a vaulted ceiling, striking me on top of the head.
5. When did you (or someone) first realize you had a problem?
Immediately. I was told that I fell into the wall, then onto the floor. I was asked twice if I was okay. I don’t remember any of that. It broke and cut my nose, and I could feel the blood running down my face.
6. What kind of emergency treatment, if any, did you have?
Nothing major – just a routine X-ray and a cat (CT) scan
7. Were you in a coma? If so, how long?
No
8. Did you do rehab? What kind of rehab (i.e., inpatient or outpatient and occupational and/or physical and/or speech and/or other)? How long were you in rehab?
Yes – cognitive therapy, emotional therapy, physical therapy, and vestibular therapy. I am waiting on a driving exam and endocrinology testing. I am currently in therapy.
9. What problems or disabilities, if any, resulted from your TBI (e.g., balance, perception, personality, etc.)?
I have difficulties with balance, decision-making, and reading and comprehension. I’m more emotional (crying and anxiety). I have headaches, dizziness, and tinnitus. My sorting skills and my ability to multitask (very important for a firefighter) have been affected. I experience depression, fatigue, and pains in my neck, hands, and feet. My motivation is a problem.
10. How has your life changed? Is it better? Is it worse?
The mental and physical issues have been difficult. I went from working two fire-department jobs, homeschooling our daughter, and building a pool house to spending most of my time in bed, due to fatigue, depression, pain, and lack of motivation. My wife and daughter both say that I am much more easy-going. I tell them, “Well, yes. I am not working 120-plus hours per week.” (LOL)
11. What do you miss the most from your pre-TBI life?
My other family at the fire department
12. What do you enjoy most in your post-TBI life?
To be able (when I am able) to be home with my daughter, and the chance of starting a new chapter of my life
13. What do you like least about your TBI?
The fatigue, the lack of motivation, and the pain
14. Has anything helped you to accept your TBI?
My faith in God and the support of family and friends
15. Has your injury affected your home life and relationships and, if so, how?
It has been a mixed bag in my home life. Although I am home, the majority of my time is spent in bed.
16. Has your social life been altered or changed and, if so, how?
Yes. We don’t go to concerts, and we don’t go out to eat. I try to avoid crowds. This is all due to overstimulation and anxiety.
17. Who is your main caregiver? Do you understand what it takes to be a caregiver?
My wife is my main caregiver. In some respects, I became her caregiver when she became ill in 2005.
18. What are your future plans? What do you expect/hope to be doing ten years from now?
I hope to recover as much as possible and to start a group that goes out and assists other first responders when they are injured and have to be home. In 10 years, I would like to be able to travel.
19. Are you able to provide a helpful hint that may have taken you a long time to learn, but which you wished you had known earlier? If so, please state what it is to potentially help other TBI survivors with your specific kind of TBI.
I want people to know that this injury will take much longer to recover from than they could ever imagine.
20. What advice would you offer to other TBI survivors? Do you have any other comments that you would like to add?
Try to keep emotions and stimulation to a minimum in the beginning – it will help in the long run. Find a support group – they have valuable knowledge. Doctors are not always as educated on TBI as they need to be. The sooner you can accept the “new normal,” the easier it will be. Don’t ever give up or stop trying. Find an advocate who will help you in your journey.
Thank you, Joey, for taking part in this interview. I hope that your experience will offer some hope, comfort, and inspiration to my readers.
(Disclaimer: The views or opinions in this post are solely that of the interviewee.)

With a Grain of Salt, Darlings
God, I never thought Id grow to despise a phrase so intensely. Anyway, for those who want to take their Precious Sage with a Grain of Salt, this is the column in particular to do it because were going to be breaking out the Gossip Chips, dippin them into the girly salsa and washing them down with a cold glass of giggles.
AMC
Jeddy Peck (Yes, Virgos, I know its J. Eddie, I just like to call the boy, Jeddy, OK? OK) spoke out in those stilted, Im being seriously monitored by the ABC Gestapo terms about the mutual decision between himself and AMC to drop the character of Jake. The main thing, according to Jeddy, is that he felt the Martins were not getting the attention they deserved. He fussed a bit about this last year and wanted to be released from his contract. AMC refused. Enter new regime. He wanted a firm commitment that they were going to come up with some decent stories for the Martin family, they pussed around about it, he asked to be released and they agreed. End of story. He finishes up taping Feb 3rd and will air for the last time around the beginning of March. There are no plans for him to reprise his role of Cole Howard on Young and the Restless.
Dont look for any kind of on-screen farewell for Jason Olive, who played (yep, past tense) Frank Hubbard. His last scene was on December 23rd when he told Mia he would not interfere in Williams life. Over. Done. Finito.
Look for Edmunds obsession with Marias memories to get even more intense and even weirder.
Kate brought some bad news our way this weekend when she reported with her spoiler commentary that some nimrod at AMC figures its a good idea to create a story that back-burners David Canary for an undetermined amount of time. Looks like Adam is going to be out of the picture for a while.
Despite rumors to the contrary, Cameron has no intention of returning to the role of Ryan anytime soon. He doesnt discount it for the future, but does for the immediate future.
The rumors are getting more and more confusing about Anna. Although the push is growing stronger that FH is relocating to GH in February, AMC tells us that Anna and David WILL have their baby together in the spring after moving a little further down that bumpy road. Whether the migration is temporary (if she is the woman in contact with Ric, and personally, I dont think she is) or all a big ruse in either case, I dont know. She supposedly signed a 3 year contract recently with AMC (as opposed with just ABC), but of course, people are released from contracts all the time. I dont think well know for sure until right up onto time for it to happen. ABC seems to have declared war on viewers, especially online fans, and are determined to undermine any attempt at finding out anything, going so far as to leak out red herrings, bad redirects and outright lies. Believe nothing.
OLTL
Speaking of believing nothing, it extends over into that unsinkable ship, OLTL as well. As many of you know, there was a huge hubbub this weekend when (as the story goes), Catherine Hickland and Ty Treadway both posted on their sites that they had been let go from OLTL and would be leaving in the spring. Not long after that, there were fervent retraction posted, declaring the whole thing a hoax. My impression is that this is more of ABCs spin-doctoring after the fact. Hide and watch. I believe that Lindsay will be gone in March (sent away to St Annes) and Troy will also be written off at the same time. Bookmark this column, loveys, because I find the retraction more suspect than the initial post. Youre going to want to go back and find the place where Sage suspected strongly it was true.
So if its true, what does that take the count up to now? Ty Treadway, Catherine Hickland, Larry Lau, Teddy Sears (Chad Bennett), Steve Richard Harris (NuSeth, already gone as of January 2nd when Jessica gave him the book) and my beloved, adored Barbara Niven. Although it is RUMORED that Ilene Kirsten will leave the role of Roxy to migrate to GH and renew the part of Janine, I think its bull. I believe Roxy will be hanging around quite a while longer. I mean, she just got her hair makeover! The big question is *if* CH is leaving and LL is leaving, the only Rappaport left will be Jennifer (Jessica Morris). Her contract, I have heard, is up for renewal in March and theres not a breath of a word about its impending status. Roger Howarth is a big question mark as again, rumors of his desire to audition for prime time parts may take him to a West Coast relocation, but as I understand it, we have him through at least to Spring.
A really big influx of newbies is coming if the scuttlebutt is to be believed. Both of Todds daddies, Peter Manning and Victor Lord, are rumored to be returning, with Victor being very nearly surefire.
Speaking of daddies, as I hear it, Clint Ritchies return as Clint Buchanan is not involved (sadly) with current stories, but will be on February 19th on the OLTL Fan Fantasy episode. It will be great to see him, however.
If you haven't been over to say good-bye to Barbara Niven, you may do so here. She has left a reply there as well.
The rumors are strong of a (secret) Robin Strasser return as Dorian during that incredible storm in February, but a friend told me its only if she agrees to shut down her phone hotline and not tell a soul. Her departure from the show was under less than stellar circumstances, so Im sure if there is a return, it will be a situation handled with kid gloves on both sides. My friend on the set says there is NO sign of a Dorian return.
The first week of February is going to be a big week as two Buchanan kiddies return. Long gone and oft recast Joey Buchanan will appear on the 3rd and NuJessica will be back on the 5th. Open your minds and watch, then well dish about it when theyve had a week or two to settle in.
Hillary B. Smith had some carefully chosen words for what is coming up: Starting the week of February 3, when the Josh/Michael stuff begins to air, you are going to see a big change. It will be very different, very character-driven material. It's going to be rich. You may like them, you may hate them, but I promise you, it will be rich.
Um, boy, could that ever be open to interpretation! As always, I suppose we will just have to wait and see with minds open and keyboards at the ready.
Lots of Nora stuff coming up as she finds out from Lindsay what happened to Joanna and leaves Troy over it. She doesnt, however, learn about his unorthodox way of dealing with Lindsays blackmail. The big question is whether or not that will continue and if so, where it will lead the hot couple. Once Nora gives Troy the heave ho, she gravitates right toward Bo for couple and Josh Griffith (Head Writer) was freaky vague about what that would mean for Bo and Gabrielle.
Max will have to fight for his relationship with Roxy and in doing so, were going to start to see more sides to him than the one-dimensional Max weve had recently. The question also comes into play about how much of Asas affection for Roxy was an act. He has his own issues as Raes character begins to shift back to using her powers for good instead of evil and return to her right mind.
All in all, that big storm in February is going to have the winds of change blowing at gale force strength.
GH
Yep, I can validate NuEm showing up just in time for Valentines Day, but of course, there will NOT be an instant ZEm revisit. Its going to happen, but will be hard won.
Alexis is going to be backing off of Jason and Brendas case, much to Sonny and Carlys dismay, when she focuses on Kristinas surgery.
Things may get really interesting if Ned challenges Alexis for custody of Kristina. Ned and Flea arent quite finished yet and will be generating some chemistry.
It will soon be shown that Faith is connected with Edward.
The Journey is almost at an end. Nope, no baby (this week, at least).
Billy Warlock is NOT expected to leave GH for reprising the role of Frankie on Days.
AJ does meet the business end of a gun with Courtney on the other end of it. At that time, he admits he is the one who paid off Ida to shift blame to Jason. Maybe she tries to save Jason one too many times!
It might have looked good today when Gia was poking Cameron into a connection with his son, but its not going to break through the docs ironclad walls.
Speaking of Gia, it doesnt look good for the future of Nia. Im hearing they will both be leaving within a few months and NOT together.
No word yet on whats going to happen with Vanessa Marcils (quickly ending) contract. As always, last minute stuff.
Brendas big secret?? She has a child? Noooooo. Just that she wants a divorce from Jason.
Catherines New Years Eve tale isnt over yet as Carlys life begins to show some interesting parallels to the story. Whether or not history is set to repeat itself remains to be seen.
Oddly, Scott and Laura (Summer) connect and even though she comes close to making love with Lucky, she goes to dinner with Scott and he is drawn to her.
See the AMC stuff above for the Anna/Finola Hughes speculation.
Lastly, you may have heard of a Sonny and Brenda wedding. Rest assured its part of the Fan Fantasy episode on February 26th. How this adds up or at least was advertised is that this is a collection of scenes requested by the fans, so unless something changed, it wont be an hour of Sonny and Brenda. Im eager to see them making that fire again!
So thats the dish for the week, darlings!! Ill let you know if I hear anything new and who knows? If all goes well, I should have an Uncensored column and an off topic one as well later in the week.
Be Well, My Loves!!

I think the big ones for me are Vicky/Marley AW and Brad ATWT.
Vicky/Marley AW, Ellen Wheeler really got Marley's heart. Her Vicky was more of a caricature, from what I've seen. Anne Heche, on the other hand, played everything of Vicky, she seemed to make her fly. She was also good as Marley (Marley's rape aftermath scenes were a particular highlight), but it took her several years to make Marley more than Vicky's boring sister with a bad wig. Jensen Buchanan seemed to be a caricature as Vicky and barely there as Marley. JB had little interest in Marley or a dual role, and in the long term this had a debilitating effect on Vicky's character. Marley disappeared and Vicky basically BECAME Marley.
ATWT Brad. Geez louise, talk about changes. Nick K's Brad was a rough around the edges guy who didn't mind taking the morally questionable way but was generally a decent man with scars. John Loprieno's Brad came across as a scuzzy con artist. Austin Peck's Brad was a goofy kid and at other times a self-righteous shouter.
Others...
Sarah Roberts OLTL. She went from being a "punk" and "edgy" scarred young woman to a dreary ingenue who instantly forgave her mother for years of neglect. The only thing they had in common was singing.
Cassie Callison OLTL. This was a big issue for longtime fans when I started watching OLTL 15 years ago. They would complain every time anyone mentioned the Holly Gagnier Cassie. They said she stole Dorian's boyfriend and she went around with her boobs hanging out a lot of the time.
Joey Buchanan OLTL. Chris McKenna's Joey was very earnest. Nathan Fillion was much more humorous, at least until he began to lose his personality. Don Jeffcoat's Joey was a wimp, and a punching bag, the GV Lucky of his day. Bruce Michael Hall's Joey was back to being extremely earnest, and...he had nice nipples. That's about it.
OLTL Todd Manning. This would take all day.
OLTL Tina Andrea's Tina was ditzy but had a strong will and could do anything. Karen Witter's Tina was slightly quirky but much more mainstream. Krista Tesreau's Tina was very weak and dumb.
OLTL
Clint - from Clint Ritchie to Jerry verDorn. I think the differences are too obvious to need description.
Jessica - BW has more of a "sexpot" air than ET ever did.
Cassie - Cusi Cram was the first and just a teen. Ava Haddad came next and Cassie was a likeable young woman. When Holly Gagnier took over, Cassie did indeed become sluttier, crasser and louder. More of a Crassie.
Max - With J DePaiva, Max always seemed more the ladies' man. With Nicholas Walker, he just seemed more serious
Ryan's Hope had quite a few glaring ones:
Joe Novak - Richard Muenz's Joe wanted out of the mob but was torn between his love for Siobhan and his love and loyalty for his uncle. For a long time you didn't even know how extensive his involvement was because they focused more on the romantic story, where he came off somewhat boyish and charming. When Roscoe Born took over, the writing for Joe turned more sinister. His was a slimier Joe.
Frank Ryan - Michael Hawkins was wooden and almost his father Johnny's age yet he was reasonably good looking. Andrew Robinson was a better actor but a miscast as the handsome young politician. Daniel Hugh-Kelly brought the looks and the acting ability to the role. In this case it seemed the character of Frank was written pretty consistently all along and it was more a question of how successfully the actors pulled it off.
Siobhan - Sarah Felder's was more of an in-your-face, rebellious, unglamorous type. Ann Gillespie's was more watered down.
Faith - Faith Catlin was gawky and not beautiful. Catherine Hicks was cute/pretty and girlish. KMG was ice-Faith and hated her sister.
And the famous Mary Ryan recasts were so unsuccessful, they finally killed the character off. By that time, the strong-willed heroine had morphed into more of a workaholic shrew.
I do think Bree was cast as a sexpot but it's so hard to take her Jessica as a serious woman, she has been so victimized and most of her sexuality has been passed off to Tess, where it's cartoonlike. I thought that had changed with Brody but apparently not.
The RH recasts were often jarring.
Pat Ryan:
Malcolm Groome Pat was goofy, edgy. John Blazo Pat was much more quiet and serious, and droll. I liked them both. Then we got the third Pat, briefly, who was just awful, like some Brady sibling with a bad attitude. Then the fourth Pat, who seemed to just be a generic hunk.
Delia Reid Ryan Ryan Coleridge:
Ilene Kristen's Delia was more of a strong force, whereas Randall Edwards's Delia was ditzier and more vulnerable, at least when the show bothered to write for her.
I have never really seen Robin Mattson's Delia.
DAYS
Kate Roberts under Deborah Adair was very much a lady of dignity who took herself very seriously. She worked hard to create a life for herself and she worked to maintain the image, she was careful and smart and confident. That Kate lasted 2 years...Lauren Koslow's Kate is far more sexual, fun, devious and fiery. Koslow's Kate knows what life on the skids is like, loathes the idea of going back to it and will be damned before she hits the skids again.
Essentially, Adair went for understated while Koslow has gone for aggressive. I feel Koslow's interpretation is why Kate is still around...I feel Adair's Kate would have developed into Marlena 2.0 and would have been killed off ages ago. I mean, could you ever believe that Deborah Adair's Kate could have been a hooker? I can't. I remember Koslow having to do a flashback to Kate working as a stripper and she pulled it off perfectly.
Y&R
Jill Abbott changed radically when Jess Walton took over from Brenda Dickson. The magic of Dickson's first run as Jill was long gone when she came back in the mid 80s...she played Jill like a midwestern Alexis Carrington and it just didn't work. Walton's Jill is angrier, harder, sadder, more ferocious and above all wiser. Her Jill is a far more layered character and I found the writing reflected that. Jill was still Jill, but the angles changed.

He was also charged with attempted robbery and grand theft, both with allegations he was armed with a firearm.
Estrada, was also charged with murder, but without the special circumstance allegation. He was also charged with attempted robbery and grand theft, both also allegedly while armed with a firearm. Estrada is also facing a life sentence.
The two other suspects were also formally charged, Leonel Gutierrez, also 18 was charged with attempted robbery and grand theft by embezzlement, both with allegations he was armed.

Young Adult - Contemporary
I have been putting this review off in the hopes that I could somehow formulate a review that would do this novel justice. Dear Martin is one of the best contemporaries I have read recently and it focuses on important social issues that are prevalent in our society today. The other reason this novel is so powerful is because it provides insight into a cultural group that is not part of my own experience.
As race relations continue to be a problem in the United States, novels like this one become an important part of the conversation. Justyce, the main character, fights prejudice and discrimination on almost a daily basis at his elite Atlanta boarding school. He is attending school on scholarship, a fact that the rich white kids often remind him of during classes. While Justyce is doing everything he can to break into the Ivy Leagues, his mother is continuing to hold down the fort in a poor section of the city that is littered with crime and gangs. As Justyce navigates the two social currents of his life, he feels like he will never be accepted by the elite and he will never be accepted in his neighborhood because he is working so hard to break the cycle of poverty.
Justyce's life takes another turn when he has a run in with a police officer who assumes that he is doing something wrong simply because he is a young black male. This experience forces him to reflect on his life and his goals for the future. To deal with his frustrations, Justyce starts a journal where he writes letters to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. He sees this as a therapeutic exercise that will also help him focus on making positive change. In addition to writing to Dr. King, Justyce finds comfort with his two friends, Manny and SJ. These two provide a refuge when the walls of society begin to push in on Justyce.
Manny is also in some ways the opposite of Justyce. He has always had a privileged life. In spite of being one of the few black students at the school, Manny has an easier time of things due to his bank account and the fact that he often goes along with whatever his white friends want. There are some pretty offensive moments in this novel and Manny's reaction to some of them made me cringe, but eventually his eyes are opened to how wrong the others are acting.
One of my favorite aspects of this novel was the relationship between Justyce and SJ. I love how they support and challenge one another. They aren't afraid to call each other out when its warranted. It was also nice to see such a strong and intelligent female character.
Dear Martin is an eye opening read that is still holding onto my mind. The commentary on social injustice, race relations in the U.S., and racism is relevant. This is a novel you cannot simply read; it's one you immediately want to discuss with others around you.
I'm still not sure that this review is truly enough for this novel. Suffice it to say that this one is a favorite.
One Last Gripe: I wish this had been longer.
Favorite Thing About This Book: I liked the interesting narrative style.
First Sentence: From where he's standing across the street, Justyce can see her: Melo Taylor, ex-girlfriend, slumped over beside her Benz on the damp concrete of the FarmFresh parking lot.
Favorite Character: Justyce
Least Favorite Character: Jared
Raw, captivating, and undeniably real, Nic Stone joins industry giants Jason Reynolds and Walter Dean Myers as she boldly tackles American race relations in this stunning debut.
Justyce McAllister is top of his class and set for the Ivy League—but none of that matters to the police officer who just put him in handcuffs. And despite leaving his rough neighborhood behind, he can't escape the scorn of his former peers or the ridicule of his new classmates. Justyce looks to the teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. for answers. But do they hold up anymore? He starts a journal to Dr. King to find out.

Chris McKenna played rogue lawman Det. Harding on The Young and the Restless. While he’s no longer on the show, fans have followed the actor’s career ever since he played Joey Buchanan on One Life to Live as a teenager. Now, he shares some happy news with them.
Chris McKenna: Father’s Day 2024
McKenna took to social media to let his followers and fans know whether or not he and his wife are having a boy or a girl. “My amazing wife and (the less amazing) I have been waiting to announce this. We’re very excited. Baby McKenna coming this summer.”
Pals from Y&R wished McKenna and his wife all the best on the upcoming bundle of joy. “Congrats!!!!!” wrote Sean Carrigan (ex-Ben). Barbara Crampton, who recurs as Leanna Love, chimed in: “Awww! Congrats!!!”
Kelli Goss AKA Courtney Sloane, the policewoman whom Harding killed on her wedding day to Noah Newman (then, Robert Adamson), who became a first-time mom in 2022 and recently had her second child, chimed in: “Congratulations!!!”
Check out McKenna’s post below to see if he and his wife are expecting a boy or a girl. Soap Hub joins the couple’s friends and family in wishing them all the best as they prepare to welcome their firstborn.

Dr. Ben Davidson is a fictional character on the ABC soap opera One Life to Live, portrayed by actor Mark Derwin from February 1999 to August 2002, and briefly in February 2004 and July 2008.[1][2][3][4] Ben is best remembered as the sixth husband of town heroine Victoria Lord, who carried the name "Victoria Lord Davidson" for nine years.
Character biography
Ben arrives in Llanview in 1999 with a tumultuous past, and takes a job as a bartender at Crossroads. It is here that he meets Viki Lord Carpenter. The two become closer, and when Ben's past with the mob catches up with him and he is shot; Viki comes to his rescue.They marry on November 13, 2000.
Ben has a long-standing feud with Asa Buchanan, who he would later learn is his father. Asa has a heart attack during one of these confrontations and Ben is content to let him die, until Max Holden convinces him to save Asa's life. Eventually, after many battles, Asa learns to accept Ben as his son and they are able to get along with one another. Ben's mother Renee Divine Buchanan is initially hurt by Ben's lies, but becomes close to Ben.
In 2002, Ben is pushed out of a second story window at Llanfair by Viki's alter ego, Niki Smith (Viki had been suffering from a recurrence of her dissociative identity disorder). Viki's daughter Natalie Buchanan is initially blamed for pushing him, until Ben's amnesia clears and he remembers that Niki had pushed him. He recovers from the fall; however, shortly after he is accidentally shot by Antonio Vega, who is trying to save Viki from Allison Perkins (who had kidnapped her). The incident leaves Ben comatose. Over time, Viki decides to move on with her life, and begins dating Pennsylvania Governor Harrison Brooks. After a falling out with Brooks, Viki realizes that Ben is the only true love of her life.
In 2004, Viki spends Valentine's Day next to Ben's bed. Viki is ecstatic whenever Ben briefly awakes. Ben tells Viki that he loves her, and after the two share favorite memories, Viki is heartbroken whenever Ben falls back into his coma. Shortly after, Viki learns of the declining condition of her heart, and she will die without a transplant. After Viki is hospitalized, the search for a compatible heart begins. A heart is found, but is contaminated by Llanview Hospital Chief of Staff, Dr. Long, who is selling organs on the black market. However, Ben's condition declines, and he dies in May 2004. Though reluctant at first, Viki accepts Ben's heart.
In July 2008, Viki is involved in a car accident with Dorian Lord and dies; she visits Heaven, where she is reunited with deceased loved ones, including Ben.[1][2] After Ben advises Viki to give love another chance and forgive Charlie Banks, Viki decides to return to her loved ones. Dorian revives Viki with a shot of adrenaline, and Viki later makes a complete recovery in the hospital.[3][4]

MANY celebrities have gotten their start in acting by working on soap operas - and have gone on to become A-listers.
From Demi Moore's role in General Hospital to Brad Pitt's turn as a young basketball player in Another Word, soaps have been a career launching pad for many Hollywood stars.
Here are the actors who got their start in soap operas before breaking into Hollywood films.
DEMI MOORE
After appearing in the 1982 sci-fi horror B-movie Parasite, Demi, 61, made her first big splash in the acting world as investigative journalist Jackie Templeton on General Hospital from 1982 to 1983.
She would go on to star in the upcoming Brat Pack reunion documentary, St. Elmo's Fire in 1985, the year's highest-grossing film Ghost in 1990, opposite Tom Cruise and Jack Nicholson in 1992's A Few Good Men, and alongside Woody Harrelson in 1993's Indecent Proposal.
The actress also had high-profile marriages to Bruce Willis and Ashton Kutcher and always remained at the forefront of culture with her headline-grabbing roles in Striptease (1996) and GI Jane (1997).
BRAD PITT
Before Brad, 60, lit up the silver screen as Tyler Durden in 1999's Fight Club or Rusty Ryan in 2001's Ocean's Eleven, the Hollywood star appeared in the soap opera Another World in 1987 as a young basketball player named Chris.
The same year, Brad would appear in small background roles in the movie Hunk as Man at the Beach with Drink and in the Charlie Sheen-led crime drama No Man's Land as a waiter.
The actor would go on to have a storied career, landing starring roles in huge Hollywood blockbusters like Troy (2004) and Inglorious Basterds (2009) and winning an Oscar for starring alongside Leonardo DiCaprio in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019).
MICHAEL B. JORDAN
Michael B. Jordan, 37, may be known for his role as the hard-punching son of boxer Apollo Creed now, but before he launched to superstardom by taking the lead in the Rocky spin-off series, he played troubled teen Reggie Montgomery in All My Children.
After appearing as Wallace in Season 1 of The Wire in 2002, he starred in the soap opera for 59 episodes, from 2003 to 2006.
Since leaving the soap, Michael has starred in the topical and award-winning Fruitville Station (2009) and took a villainous turn as Killmonger in the second-highest-grossing film of 2018, Black Panther.
JULIANNE MOORE
Julianne, 63, was garnering accolades long before she took home the Best Actress Academy Award for 2014's Still Alice.
The May December star won a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Younger Actress in a Drama Series all the way back in 1988 for portraying Frannie and Sabrina Hughes on As the World Turns.
From 1985 to 1988, Julianne played Frannie and Frannie's identical half-sister and cousin, Sabrina.
Julianne has been nominated for an Oscar five times in her career - for her work in Boogie Nights (1998), The End of the Affair (2000), Far From Heaven (2003), The Hours (2003), and Still Alice.
EVA LONGORIA
Actor-turned-director Eva, 49, may have hit her stride as Gabrielle Solis on the ABC comedy Desperate Housewives, but she got her start playing Isabella Braña on The Young and the Restless from 2001 to 2003.
While the actress made an appearance in another soap, General Hospital, in 2000, it was her role on The Young and the Restless that boosted her acting career.
Recently, Eva landed a recurring role in Only Murders in the Building and made her directorial debut for 2023's Flamin' Hot.
NATHAN FILLION
Before starring as the titular, best-selling mystery novelist Richard Castle on TV series Castle or as captain of the Serenity in the space-western Firefly, Nathan Fillion, 53, portrayed teenager Joey Buchanan on One Life to Live.
Nathan played the character from 1994 to 1997 and briefly reprised the role in 2007 for the funeral of Joey's adopted grandfather.
Since departing the series, Nathan has had roles in Serenity (2005) and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023) and has starred in the police procedural, The Rookie, since 2018.
SHEMAR MOORE
Perhaps the longest-tenured soap opera star on the list, Shemar Moore, 54, starred as Malcolm Winters on The Young and the Restless from 1994 to 2005.
The actor briefly returned to the role in 2014 and again in 2019, the latter to honor cast member Kristoff St. John, who died that year.
From 1999 to 2003, Shemar hosted the revival of the music variety show Soul Train before landing a role in Diary of a Mad Black Woman (2005).
The actor returned to television in the same year and starred as Derek Morgan on Criminal Minds until 2017.
Since 2018, Shemar has starred as Sergeant Daniel "Hondo" Harrelson in the CBS action drama, SWAT.
JOSH DUHAMEL
Before he took on Decepticons alongside the Autobots in Transformers, Josh Duhamel, 51, starred in All My Children as part of the super-couple Leo and Greenlee.
He garnered a Daytime Emmy for the part but exited the show in 2002, leaving his character of Leo to die in a shocking twist.
Josh returned to the role of Leo Du Pres in 2011, visiting Greenlee in a dream.
Josh would go on to star as Danny McCoy in NBC's Las Vegas from 2003 to 2008 and in the Transformers film franchise from 2007 to 2017.

❤️ (Non-work post Friday!) In the Spring of 2018 I was wandering the UES of Manhattan when I bumped into an old college friend. She asked if I was single (I was) and then told me she was introducing me to her best friend - who owned a matchmaking service. My first thought was to say "hell no." I had every app on my phone, and I didn't need a matchmaking service...but I'm also very much the type of person who likes to give everything a shot. I grabbed a breakfast with Lori Glover Zaslow - told her what I was looking for in a partner, and figured "why not!" Within a week I was set up with this girl who lived 2 blocks away from me. We were from the same hometown but had never crossed paths. How did I know she was the one? Midway through the first date, she pulled out her phone and said - "so sorry, I need to check the score of the NBA Finals." 5+ years later and a ten-month old...here we are. Give everything a shot. Step outside your comfort zone. Try something you never ever imagined you'd ever do. Watch what happens. My little testimonial for Project Soulmate below! Happy Friday https://lnkd.in/eTCTTMfU #life #love

“Have you ever seen so many gorgeous blouses?” retired fashion designer Frances Rappaport exclaimed as she sat in her 25th-floor, Central Park South apartment this week, admiring a rack of her colorful silk creations.
The 95-year-old may soon be stripped of that simple pleasure while in her spectacular home.
Rappaport’s three sons are battling in court over their dementia-stricken mom’s $4 million co-op off Seventh Avenue, her home for 45 years.
Michael, 71, the eldest son of late fashion designer David Rappaport and David’s partner-wife, Frances, wants to eject his mom from her three-bedroom spread, according to papers filed in Manhattan Surrogate’s Court.
But middle son Errol, 68, an unemployed, self-described black sheep, wants to keep Mom in her Central Park digs.
“I don’t want to bad-mouth my brother,” Errol said. “I just want justice for my mother.”
David, who died in 2010, named his sons co-executors of his will.
Born in Harlem to Russian Jewish immigrants, David climbed the fashion ladder, taking his multimillion-dollar Italian knitwear enterprise, Damon Creations, public in 1967.
Frances had her own women’s-wear line, Francesca di Damon. Stars like Lucille Ball coveted her intricate blouses and canary-yellow suits.
Michael, a real-estate investor, told a judge last week that he’ll put his mother up in his own Upper East Side penthouse until he finds her a rental.
Errol lives with his mom rent-free and gets a $2,500 monthly stipend while caring for Frances.
Michael, who declined to comment, is also hitting up his late father’s dwindling estate for $133,000 he claims his parents owe him.
“The administration of [David’s] estate brings to mind Marcellus in Shakespeare’s play ‘Hamlet,’ ” court-appointed evaluator Demarest Duckworth wrote in a February 2012 report. “Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.”

Joey Buchanan (born Joe Riley Jr.) is a fictional character from the American daytime serial One Life to Live. The character is the son of original protagonists Victoria Lord and Joe Riley Sr.
Casting
[edit]
The role of Joey Buchanan was originated by child actor Ryan Morris from 1980 to 1985. Morris was then replaced by John Paul Learn from 1985 to June 20, 1990. On September 18, 1990, the role was reintroduced by teen actor Chris McKenna, who portrayed the role until 1993. In 1994, actor Nathan Fillion first appeared in the regular role of an 18-year-old Joey on the episode first-run April 28, 1994.[1] Fillion remained on the series until his on-screen departure on February 14, 1997. Fillion's portrayal of Joey earned him a Younger Actor Emmy nomination in 1998.[2] Following Fillion's departure, the role was recast with actor Don Jeffcoat, who stepped into the role on-screen on October 17, 1997.[3]
In 2000, it was announced that Jeffcoat was cast out of the series after his contract was not extended.[4] Jeffcoat last aired on-air on January 19, 2001. In early 2003, it was announced that Passions actor Bruce Michael Hall would join the cast as the third adult actor to portray the role of Joey.[5] However, it was announced in November 2003 that Hall had been let go from the show.[5] He last aired in 2004. Fillion returned briefly to the role in August 2007 for One Life to Live's 9,999 and 10,000 episodes.[6][7][8]
In July 2009, it was reported that actor Daniel Cosgrove, best known for his role as Bill Lewis on the CBS Daytime soap opera Guiding Light would be cast in the role as Joey Buchanan following the series' September 2009 finale.[9] The reports were confirmed untrue when it was announced that Cosgrove would join the CBS Daytime soap As the World Turns in the role of Christopher Hughes.[10][11]
In the summer of 2010, a casting call went out with the prospect of possibly officially recasting the role of Joey Buchanan.[12] On October 5, 2010, it was announced that newcomer Josh Kelly had been cast as Joey Buchanan.[13] Kelly had a projected on-air debut of November 24, 2010.[13] Kelly reportedly beat out several Daytime heavy-weights including Matt Borlenghi, Brody Hutzler, and Austin Peck.[13] However, two days later, it was announced that the role of Joey had been unrecast and then re-recast the role with former As the World Turns actor Tom Degnan, and that Kelly would be cast in another contract role of new character Cutter Wentworth instead.[14] One Life to Live executive producer Frank Valentini released a statement concerning the change-up, stating:[14]
After auditioning a talented group of guys for the role of Joey, we are excited to announce that not one but two of them will be joining the cast of One Life to Live in contract roles. [W]e have decided that Josh Kelly is a great fit for the other contract role that we have written [...] We look forward to both actors joining the show.
Degnan premiered as previously reported for Kelly on November 24, 2010.[14] Following the April 2011 cancellation of One Life to Live and All My Children,[15] it was announced that Degnan would exit alongside co-star Gina Tognoni, who was portraying Joey's long-time love, Kelly Cramer would exit the series before its January 2012 finale.[16][17][18] Both Degnan and Tognoni exited the soap on August 24, 2011.
Storylines
[edit]
1980–1993
[edit]
Joey is born to Victoria "Viki" Lord Riley (Erika Slezak) mere months after the death of his father and her husband Joe Riley (Lee Patterson) in 1980.[19][20] When Viki later marries Clint Buchanan (Clint Ritchie) in 1982, Clint adopts Joey and his older brother, Kevin Lord Riley. In the summer of 1992, a teenage Joey befriends a closeted gay teen named Billy Douglas (Ryan Phillippe) who had a friendship with the Rev. Andrew Carpenter (Wortham Krimmer). College student Marty Saybrooke (Susan Haskell), who has a crush on Andrew and is jealous of his relationship with Billy, accuses Andrew of molesting Billy. Andrew is later found not to be sexually abusing Billy, which forces Billy to come out of the closet to his parents and to the citizens of Llanview. Joey supports his friend Billy as he copes with coming out of the closet and the homophobia from the town and his disapproving father. Andrew later helps bring the AIDS quilt to Llanview to help the town to tolerate the gay community.
1994–2007
[edit]
In 1994, a young adult Joey secretly romances his former step-grandmother, Vicki's nemesis Dr. Dorian Lord (Robin Strasser). Though initially motivated by revenge against Viki, Dorian comes to love Joey; Viki is outraged when she finds out.[21] During a recurrence of her dissociative identity disorder, one of Viki's alternate personalities, Jean Randolph, holds Dorian hostage in a secret room beneath Llanfair in 1995.[22] One of the conditions of her release is to end the relationship with Joey,[23] which she does.[24]
Joey later becomes involved with Dorian's niece, Kelly Cramer (Gina Tognoni) in late 1995. Ultimately, Kelly leaves him for his brother Kevin.
In 2003, Joey returns to Llanview, having become a pastor in his absence. He soon marries Jennifer Rappaport, but her struggle to fit into her new role as a pastor's wife and her feelings for Rex Balsom destroy the marriage. Joey leaves town for London in January 2004. For two weeks that May, Joey returns while Viki undergoes heart transplant surgery.
Joey returns for two days in August 2007, along with brothers Cord Roberts (John Loprieno) and Kevin, for the funeral of his adopted grandfather, Asa Buchanan (Philip Carey). He and Dorian briefly discuss their past relationship, and the fact that they both still think of each other.[7][8]
2010–2011
[edit]
Joey returns to Llanview for Thanksgiving in 2010, with a woman named Aubrey Wentworth (Terri Conn). Though Kelly finds herself still in love with him, Joey proposes to Aubrey. Clint does a background check on Aubrey, which uncovers her history as a con artist with her professed brother but actual former boyfriend Cutter Wentworth (Josh Kelly). Aubrey learns of Clint's disreputable deeds and blackmails him. Despite Kelly's protests, Joey and Aubrey elope in February 2011. While Kelly insists to Joey that Aubrey's motive for marriage is his families' fortune, her accusations cause Joey to push her away. A devastated Kelly begins a romantic relationship with John McBain (Michael Easton), resigning herself to accept Joey's marriage to another woman. Eventually, Joey discovers that Aubrey's history and true relationship to Cutter. When Joey confronts Aubrey, she admits to her initial transgressions but vows she has fallen in love with Joey. Joey keeps his knowledge of Aubrey's actions quiet as the couple is awarded temporary custody of Joey's nephew, Ryder Ford, while Joey's sister and mother suffered bouts with multiple personalities. Later, Kelly is stabbed by the psychotic psychiatrist Dr. Marty Saybrooke (Susan Haskell) and left for dead, and Joey finally admits to and declares his undying affection for Kelly, while she lays in hospital. Joey and Aubrey soon divorce, in July 2011.
In August 2011, Joey announces that he is moving back to London with Kelly so they can be closer to Kelly's son and Joey's great-nephew, Zane. Before leaving Llanfair, Aubrey gives Joey back the engagement ring he gave her, but Joey declines to accept it and wishes Aubrey well. Joey lets Aubrey keep the ring because he gave it to her in "good faith", despite the fact that she originally married him for his money. Joey and Kelly say goodbye to family members before departing on the episode first-run August 24, 2011.

You know them best as Jennifer ‘Jen’ Rappaport from One Life to Live and Dr. Jake Marshak from Port Charles, and now Jessica Morris and Rib Hillis have tied the knot. The couple were married in a quiet and intimate bohemian setting and ceremony in Topanga, California on Thursday.

However, the road to their union has had many twists and turns including that in 2019, Jessica was convicted of a misdemeanor charge after apparently biting Hillis’ lip. At the time, he was married to Elena Grinenko, a professional dancer on Dancing with the Stars.
Morris told PEOPLE: “Finding true love is not always easy.” She added, “We complete each other. We have always felt that we were each other’s missing puzzle piece, and when we are together, our puzzle is complete and we are happy.”
Taking to her Instagram, Jessica expressed: “It’s official! I’m so happy to announce that I am now Mrs. Hillis! 😃❤️#newlymarried #newlyweds #wedidit #peoplemagazine #exclusive”
Hillis’ two sons, Magnus and Odin were part of the wedding ceremony as ring bearers. Rib is also dad to twins Hannah and Dane from a previous marriage.
Jessica appeared on One Life to Live from 2001-2005 and made a return in 2008, Rib appeared on Port Charles from 1997-1998.
Share your well-wishes and congratulations to newlyweds, Jessica and Rib, in the comment section below.

Estey shared, “The Coroner informed Lenny that Richard’s death was accidental due to complications from recent falls and heart disease as a contributing factor. The toxicology report was negative other than medication Richard had been prescribed. The family wishes to thank everyone for their outpouring of love and support during this time of great loss.”
Simmons, appeared as himself on GH when he held exercise classes at the Campus Disco from 1979-1983, and them made a brief return to the GH Nurses’ Ball back in 2013. He was found dead at his home on July 13th by his longtime housekeeper, one day after celebrating his 76th birthday.
The LAPD originally reported there was no foul play in his death, but that more testing needing to be done to be conclusive. Previous reports indicated that Simmons had fallen inside his home on July 12, after feeling dizzy, and that he had informed his housekeeper that he would possibly seek medical attention the following day, if he felt unwell.
Richard’s brother, Lenny Simmons, shared how he wants the beloved pop fitness icon to be remembered, stating, “I want them to remember him for the genuine joy and love he brought to people’s lives. He truly cared about people. He called, wrote and emailed thousands of people throughout his career to offer help.”

Now on August 20th, 2024, the highly-anticipated limited series Monsters season two from Ryan Murphy, unveils the premiere date for the story centering around the brothers and the murder case along with its first trailer.

They are currently at the R J Donovan Correctional Facility in San Diego, California.
Along with Chavez, the cast includes: Javier Bardem and Chloë Sevigny as parents Jose and Kitty Menendez, and Cooper Koch as Erik Menendez.

On Monday, during a press conference held by Los Angeles County prosecutors, two of the four suspects in the death of Johnny Wactor (ex-Brando Corbin) have now been officially charged with the murder of the beloved General Hospital actor.
The charges were announced by L.A. County District Attorney George Gascón and interim police chief Dominic Choi. The suspects charged with Wactor’s murder are Robert Barceleau and Sergio Estrada, both 18.
The most serious charge is for Barceleau, who was charged with murder, including a special circumstance allegation of killing in the commission of a robbery, which could lead to a life-without-parole prison term. He was also charged with attempted robbery and grand theft, both with allegations he was armed with a firearm.
Estrada, was also charged with murder, but without the special circumstance allegation. He was also charged with attempted robbery and grand theft, both also allegedly while armed with a firearm. Estrada is also facing a life sentence.
The two other suspects were also formally charged, Leonel Gutierrez, also 18 was charged with attempted robbery and grand theft by embezzlement, both with allegations he was armed. Meanwhile, Frank Olano, 22, was charged with being an accessory after the fact to the killing, along with receiving stolen property and three counts of being a felon in possession of a firearm.

In the realm of daytime television dramas, One Life to Live stands out as a classic. Running for over four decades, it captivated audiences with its intricate storylines, compelling characters, and talented cast.
One Life to Live was a beloved American soap opera that aired on the ABC network from 1968, to 2013. Created by Agnes Nixon, the show was known for its innovative storytelling and progressive themes, tackling issues such as racism, social class, and LGBTQ+ representation.
Set in the fictional town of Llanview, Pennsylvania, One Life to Live revolved around the lives, loves, and scandals of the diverse residents of the fictional town. From the wealthy Lords to the working-class Buchanans, the show depicted the intertwining lives of its characters with drama, romance, and suspense.
Several actors performed on the One Life to Live cast for 20 years or more including Erika Slezak, Michael Storm, Robert S. Woods, Philip Carey, and Robin Strasser.
Other famous actors got their start on One Life to Live before moving on to fame, including Tommy Lee Jones, Laurence Fishburne, Judith Light, Phylicia Rashad, Blair Underwood, Marcia Cross, Roma Downey, Ryan Phillippe and Hayden Panettiere.
During it’s more than 40-year run, the show has had many, many cast members.
Here, we look back at some of our favorite One Life to Live cast members.
Marcia Cross as Kate Sanders One Life to Live Cast
We know and love Marcia Cross for her roles as Dr. Kimberly Shaw in Melrose Place and Bree Van de Kamp in Desperate Housewives, but did you know she also spent time as archaeologist Kate Sanders on One Life to Live between 1986 and 1988.
Do you remember Cross on the show? Let’s refresh your memory. Cross, as Kate Sanders, was marrying the man of her dreams, Cord Roberts, when his “dead” wife busted in on the ceremony to announce she was alive and pregnant with his baby. And yes, this is why we love soaps—it’s all about the plot twists. You never know what’s going to happen next.
Richard Grieco as Rick Gardner
Richard Grieco was one of the hottest actors in the ‘90s playing roles in 21 Jump Street and the spinoff Booker. But before he made it big on those shows he was playing the part of adorable Rick Gardner on the One Life to Live cast from 1986 to 1987.
Bryan Cranston as Dean Stella One Life to Live Cast
You may remember Bryan Cranston from his role mixing up trouble on Breaking Bad — a series he won several awards for. But before he became a household name he was on, you guessed it, the One Life to Live cast. He was on the soap opera in 1985 playing the role of Dean Stella. This actor has a diverse range, in addition to soap operas and drug dramas, he has also appeared in Malcolm in the Middle, Baywatch, CHiPs and Touched by an Angel.
Laurence Fishburne as Josh Hall
We love Laurence Fishburne in The Matrix and Black-ish, but his acting chops were honed as a troubled teen on the One Life to Live cast. He aced the role as a young Josh Hall, a part he kept from 1973 to 1976.
Tommy Lee Jones Dr. Mark Toland One Life to Live Cast
Sure, you know Tommy Lee Jones from the Men in Black franchise and The Fugitive, but let’s go back in time to the 1970s where you’ll find him playing Dr. Mark Toland on One Life to Live cast. Before OLTL, he was cast in the movie Love Story, but he couldn’t find another role, so he took on the soap opera. He played Dr. Toland from 1971 to 1975. Of course, his star soon took off and he went on to be nominated for three Academy Awards.
Judith Light as Karen Wolek
We know Judith Light as Angela Bower, one of our favorite tv moms from Who’s the Boss? We also know her as Claire Meade from Ugly Betty. Let’s not forget her roles in Transparent and as Judge Elizabeth Donnelly on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.
But before all of that, Light starred on OLTL as housewife Karen Wolek (who secretly works as a prostitute) from 1977 to 1983, ultimately leaving the show for her famous role in Who’s the Boss? Light earned two Daytime Emmy Awards for her role on OLTL.
Hayden Panettiere as Sarah One Life to Live Cast
We know and love Hayden Panettiere for her roles on Heroes and Nashville, but she got her acting start playing Sarah, daughter of Tina Lord and Cord Roberts, between 1994 and 1997. Do you remember her nickname on OLTL? Flash! Other tidbits you may recall? She was the flower girl for Todd and Blair’s first wedding.
Ryan Phillippe as Billy Douglas
Do you remember a young Ryan Phillippe playing the groundbreaking gay character Billy Douglas on the OLTL? He was on the show from 1992-1993 and was one of the first gay teenagers on a daytime show—his coming out episode was considered controversial at the time. Phillippe went on to star in hit movies such as I Know What You Did Last Summer, Cruel Intentions and Crash, as well as the series MacGruber.
Kelly McGillis as Glenda Livingston One Life to Live Cast
Most people know Kelly McGillis from her break-out role in Top Gun, but it was her part playing Glenda Livingston in One Life to Live in 1984 that honed her acting chops.
Rainn Wilson as Casey Keegan
We love Rainn Wilson in Almost Famous and, his career-making role, playing Dwight Schrute in NBC’s The Office. But he, too, took a turn on OLTL. It was back in 1997 and he was playing an aspiring standup comedian named Casey Keegan.
Blair Underwood as Bobby Blue One Life to Live Cast
Blair Underwood is known for many great roles including his portrayal in L.A. Law, The New Adventures of Old Christine and, of course, playing Miranda’s doctor boyfriend Robert Leedson Sex and the City. But before all of that, from 1985 to 1986—just before he hit it big on L.A. Law—Underwood portrayed Bobby Blue on One Life to Live.
Elisabeth Röhm as Dorothy Hayes
Did you know that One Life to Live was Elisabeth Röhm first big acting break? She played the role of Dorothy Hayes on the show from 1997 to 1998.
Ironically, she had an on-screen romance with Nathan Fillion’s character, Joey. Rhmlater moved on to the role we all probably know her best for, ADA Serena Southerlyn on Law & Order.
Nathan Fillion as Joey Buchanan One Life to Live Cast
Before he was playing crime novelist Richard Castle on ABC’s dramedy Castle, Nathan Fillion stirred up trouble as Joey Buchanan, son of the popular main character Victoria Lord. One of his more memorable stories was when he romanced a much older woman—his mother’s nemesis.
His mom became so enraged that during a recurrence of her dissociative identity disorder, she kidnapped her son’s lover and held her hostage until she promised to end the May-December romance. Makes sense, right? Fillion played the character of Joey Buchanan from 1994 to 1997, and he developed a very loyal fanbase.
Phylicia Rashad as Courtney Wright
Before her famous stint as Clair Hanks Huxtable on The Cosby Show, Phylicia Rashad played Courtney Wright from 1983 to 1984. Later, Rashad won a Tony for her performance in the acclaimed play A Raisin in the Sun. From soap opera to Broadway, now that’s something.
Roma Downey as Lady Johanna Leighton One Life to Live Cast
In 1988, Irish actress Roma Downey played Lady Johanna Leighton on the OLTL show. She went on to get the lead role in the TV series Touched by an Angel, which ran from 1994 to 2003.
Yasmine Bleeth as LeeAnn Buchanan
One of Yasmine Bleeth’s earliest roles was playing LeeAnn Buchanan from 1991 to 1993. Soon after, she was saving lives in a red swimsuit as Caroline Holden in Baywatch, a role that earned her a spot in People magazine’s 50 Most Beautiful People in 1995.
Erika Slezak as Victoria Lord Buchanan One Life to Live Cast
Born August 5, 1946, in Hollywood, California, Erika Slezak has appeared in the One Life to Live cast from 1971-2013. She’s been in over 2490 episodes. After One Life to Live Slezak made guest appearances on shows like Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and Blue Bloods.
Slezak holds the record for the most Daytime Emmy Awards won by a single performer, with six wins for Outstanding Lead Actress.
Robin Strasser as Dorian Lord
Born May 7, 1945, in New York City, Robin Strasser played the role of Dorian Lord and was on the show from 1979-2013. She appeared in over 690 episodes. She has also appeared in Days of Our Lives, MacGyver and Passions.

Jennifer came to Llanview from boarding school in Switzerland. She almost went back because of her family's fighting, but they convinced her to stay. She then became embroiled in the mess surrounding Colin's death, because he helped her once when she caught her mother having an affair. Colin proceeded to hold this over her head, telling her she was responsible for her parents' divorce. She took a liking to Cristian Vega, who helped her through being a suspect.
But Lindsay, once cleared of suspicion in Colin's death, disliked Cristian and thought him unsuitable for her daughter. With the help of Chad, a bartender at Break Bar, Lindsay set up a website featuring Cristian prancing around in his underwear, and did several other nasty tricks to undermine the relationship. It worked for a while, and Jen moved back in with Lindsay. Eventually, the truth came out, and Jen was furious when she found out what Lindsay had done.
Cristian was working undercover for the police to get evidence to put R.J. Gannon away. Lindsay found out and told R.J. what Cris was up to, and R.J. set a semi-crazy hit man named Keith on him. When Cris evaded him twice, Keith went after Jen. Jen thought Keith was just another friendly student on campus, but she began getting suspicious when he kept on popping up everywhere she went. Cris was alarmed, and decided to break up with Jen to protect her.
Jen knew nothing about any hit man and was heartbroken, thinking Cristian just decided to dump her. Al, who loved her, was standing by her the whole time, and the two made love at the quarry. The sex was a comfort bandage for Jen, but had big meaning to Al. When Keith cornered Jen at the modeling agency in New York City, Cris rescued her and told her the truth, thus Jen left Al and returned to Cristian.
Jen missed her period and thought she was pregnant, thanks to Lindsay changing the results in another attempt to break up Jen and Cris. Since it matched the time she was with Al, she and Lindsay went to the Family Planning Center, and Lindsay arranged for Cristian to be there. Cris was hurt and upset, and left in a rage to find Al. Jen found out that she wasn't pregnant, and blamed Lindsay. However, Lindsay weaseled her way out and got Jen to believe her.
Cris and Al fought and Al accidentally fell over the edge of a cliff at the quarry. Al ended up paralyzed from the waist down. Because it was her they were fighting over, Jen swore she would stand by Al until he could walk again. Unknown to her, Al really could walk, he was just faking paralysis so she wouldn't go back to Cristian and Al could have her instead. She and Al were living at the Carriage house. She was still in love with Cristian, but she was trying to get over her feelings, until Al was not "paralyzed" anymore.
Later, Jen hastily married Rex Balsom. However, the marriage was short-lived because of her affair with Joey Buchanan, a minister in training. Although Jen pleaded for a divorce, Rex refused to grant it-until Kevin Buchanan offered him a bribe. Jen and Joey wed almost immediately after her divorce was finalized, but Jen was not thrilled with the life of a minister's wife. She also wasn't happy to be pregnant, but Joey was thrilled to be a father. When Jen miscarried, she tried to keep the truth from him. He got over the loss, but it only frayed their union even further. She slept with Rex. As hard as she tried to keep the tryst a secret, Joey found out. He realized their relationship was beyond repair and in December 2003, took a leave of absence from the rectory to once again visit Clint in London. The end of her marriage shattered Jen and she took to drinking to cope. Surprisingly, she got support from Rex and they became close again-that is, until she caught him kissing her own mother!
Jen's relationship with her mother remained strained after Lindsay continued her affair with Rex. Jen concentrated on her studies, but she was failing several classes, thanks to her partying earlier in the year. Along with Riley, Marcie, Shannon McBain, and other Llanview University students, Jen was given a second chance to make up her classes from University president Viki Davidson. President Davidson enlisted the students to rebuild the community center that had burned down in a fire. The group of students lived together in Viki's cottage (nicknamed "The Love House") and spent their days working on the community center. The experience brought Jen and Riley closer, and the two embarked on a romantic relationship.
Their romance hit a bump in the road when Paul Cramer blackmailed Jen with a sex tape of her mother and Rex, offering the tape in exchange for sex with Jen. Jen faked affection for Paul in order to get him drunk and get the tape, but Paul caught on and continued to harass her. Later, when Paul turned up dead, Jen topped the list of suspects. Rex was convinced that Jen was responsible for the crime, and did everything in his power to get her off the hook. When a security tape revealed that Rex planted the murder weapon in Dorian Lord's office, he was arrested, and admitted to Jen that he hid the gun to clear her name. Rex's undying loyalty created tension for Jen and Riley, as did Riley's father playing a key role in the investigation against Jen. That didn't change Jen's love for Riley, though, and the two moved in together.
Shortly after Jen and Riley moved in together, the evidence began piling up against her faster and faster. Jen broke things off with Riley, whom she couldn't believe truly trusted her, and began getting closer to Rex again. She found Daniel Colson in the parking garage going through her car, and realized he was planting evidence against her. She tried to get away to tell someone, but Daniel suffocated her, then placed her in her car to make it look like her death was a suicide.

A married veterinarian accused of killing his pregnant girlfriend was sentenced to life in prison after pleading guilty to homicide and homicide of an unborn child.
In exchange for the plea, prosecutors agreed not to pursue the death penalty against
, 31, of Upper Gwynedd Township in Montgomery County.
During today's hearing in Lehigh County Court, Rapoport also agreed to waive all of his appeal rights during today's hearing.The sentences are consecutive. Rapoport's been held in Lehigh County Prison without bail since his March arrest.
Rapoport, who was married at the time of the murder, admitted to killing his pregnant girlfriend,
27, of Lower Macungie Township.
the day before she was to have her first ultrasound appointment.
that Rapoport killed two people - Snyder and his unborn child - and that he knew Snyder was pregnant, according to Martin's office.
Police allege Rapoport carried on a lengthy affair with Snyder after meeting her at the Maple Hills Veterinary Clinic in Lower Macungie Township. But the affair cooled when Rapoport, who is married, learned Snyder was pregnant.
Rapoport put a pistol in Snyder's mouth and shooting her twice, then shot her a third time through the middle of her back, police said. He then wrapped her body in a bleach-soaked Eagles blanket and dumped her along Game Preserve Road in North Whitehall Township. Police said Rapoport left Snyder's car in a nearby dental office parking lot, along with a bottle of bleach and her OB/GYN paperwork.
Snyder was 10 to 12 weeks pregnant with a boy, an autopsy showed.
Police began searching for Snyder when her abandoned car was found in the parking lot with bullet casings inside, blood on the seat and a shattered rear window.
Snyder's roommate, Hilary Schiavone, told police she had last seen Snyder the morning of March 16 and she was going to see her boyfriend, Rapoport, and spend the night with him, court records say.
When police went to Rapoport's home to question him, he initially denied recent contact with Snyder but later admitted he was trying to hide the affair from his wife, Elizabeth Rapoport, records state.
Rapoport consented to a search of his car, which turned up his gun, ammunition and a backpack containing blood-smeared duct tape and a blood-spotted box of baby wipes, records say.
Rapoport told police he planned to use the wipes to clean his car, police said.
Rapoport purchased the duct tape, bleach, a towel and baby wipes at a Target near his home the morning of March 16, records say.

Michael Rapaport gushed about Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston having a “wall of caviar” at their star-studded wedding back in 2000.
“I was at Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston’s wedding. They had a wall of caviar. I still have some saved over,” the actor, 53, spilled on Sunday’s episode of “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.”
Rapaport raved that the wedding was “beautiful,” adding that the caviar wall was “generous” of the newlyweds.
“How have you been on this show 87 times, and I’ve never talked to you about Aniston and Pitt’s wedding?” a stunned Cohen asked his frequent guest star.
The stand-up comedian joked that the now-divorced couple have “dropped it now” – though he’s “still eating the caviar” from the lavish nuptials.
“I was shoving it down!” he exclaimed.
“Billy Preston performed – lot of bucks there,” Rapaport added, before moving on to the next topic.
Rapaport and Pitt have been industry pals for years, first starring together in the 1993 movie “True Romance.” The former also guest-starred on Aniston’s beloved show “Friends” for a few episodes in 1999.
Pitt, 59, and Aniston, 54, famously tied the knot in a Malibu private estate filled with 50,000 roses, tulips and miscellaneous flowers in front of 200 guests on July 29, 2000, according to Brides.
Several A-listers stepped out for the event, including Aniston’s “Friends” co-stars Matthew Perry, David Schwimmer, Lisa Kudrow and Courteney Cox (with her then-husband, David Arquette).
Pitt’s “Fight Club” co-star Edward Norton and his then-girlfriend Salma Hayek also made the cut, as well as David Spade, Dermot Mulroney and Cameron Diaz.

The wedding reportedly cost the couple a whopping $1 million and featured a firework display, several bands and choir performances and Melissa Etheridge singing “Whole Lotta Love.”
Unfortunately, the marriage didn’t last as long as Rapaport’s caviar – as Aniston and Pitt broke up five years later.
“We would like to announce that after seven years together, we have decided to formally separate,” the former couple said in a joint statement at the time. “This decision is the result of much thoughtful consideration. We happily remain committed and caring friends with great love and admiration for one another.”
Pitt went on to wed his “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” co-star Angelina Jolie in 2014 after speculation the two had an affair while he was still married to Aniston. The former lovebirds – who share six kids: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Knox and Vivienne – split in 2016 but remain in an ongoing custody battle.

Joey came into the world in 1980 and was named after his father Joe, who died before he was born. He grew up as a Buchanan after having been adopted by his mother Viki's husband Clint. Joey had a pretty normal childhood and traveled throughout Italy after graduation. Upon his return to Llanview, Joey had a steamy affair and lost his virginity to Viki's rival, Dorian Lord. He fell in love with Dorian and was devastated after receiving her breakup letter, which Viki's alter Jean made Dorian write while she held her captive.
Joey dated Dorian's niece Kelly before having a fling with Cameron Wallace, who was hired by Dorian in an attempt to gain access to the family business, Buchanan Enterprises. He briefly dated Kelly again then took off for Paris, where he later broke things off with her. Though he tried to win Kelly back after returning to Llanview, Joey fell in love with Barbara Graham who was obsessed with his brother Kevin. She later tried to kill Joey but ended up murdering his cousin Drew instead.
Kelly and Joey end up back together and even married. However, after Kelly admitted she was in love with Kevin, Joey tried everything, even hiring a hitman in order to protect her, to hang on to her. Joey eventually agreed to a divorce then moved to London with Clint before his next return to Llanview where he decided to become a minister in training. Joey grew close to a runaway named Flash, and even gave in to a few kisses, before finding out she was actually his cousin Sarah Roberts.
Joey fell for Jen Rappaport who couldn't deal with a life as a minister's wife. Jen became pregnant, had a miscarriage and an affair with Rex Balsom, which ended their marriage. Joey moved back to London and made a few visits to Llanview over the years, his last being to attend the funeral of his grandfather Asa in 2007.
On November 24, 2010, Joey returned to Llanview and stunned his parents by proposing to his girlfriend Aubrey, who had met Kelly on the plane and had no idea she was in love with Joey. That soon became apparent when the two women realized who the other was. Kelly tried to fight her feelings for Joey but ended up admitting she was still in love with him. Though Joey clearly still felt the same about Kelly, he married Aubrey and ignored Kelly's warnings that Aubrey was hiding something.

American philanthropist (1927–2021)
Jerome Lyle Rappaport (August 17, 1927 – December 6, 2021) was an American lawyer, developer, political leader, and landlord. Rappaport is also known for his philanthropy in Boston, Massachusetts, and Stuart, Florida. He was the general partner of one of the most controversial developments of the urban renewal era, the West End Project, from which he created a 48-acre urban neighborhood known as Charles River Park.[1]
Early life and politics
[edit]
Rappaport, born and raised in the Bronx and Manhattan's Upper West Side, was the son of a clothier of Romanian Jewish extraction.[2][3] In 1938 Rappaport was a contestant on the 1938 Whiz Kids program that was hosted on WHN Radio in New York.[4]
Rappaport entered Harvard University at 16 years of age and received a Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Laws degree in 1949, when he was 21. He earned a Master of Public Administration from the Littauer School (today the Harvard Kennedy School) in 1963.[5]
As a student, Rappaport founded the Harvard Law School Forum, which was originally dedicated to the memory of Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. and 102 other Harvard Law School graduates and former students on leave who had died in World War II. The Forum's Friday evening radio broadcasts on WHDH in 1946 garnered positive press and inspired the participation of Harvard's then-president, law school dean, faculty members, and students.[6]
The Harvard Law School Forum Inaugural event was held on March 8, 1946, "War Crime Trials" (Revolution in legal theory or law enforcement?).[7] “Unrest Within the Democratic Party” (Eleanor Roosevelt and others) – May 1, 1961- Part I, Part II;[8] Martin Luther King, Jr., “The Future of Integration[9]” (October 24, 1962 – Part I, Part II); Other famous Forum speakers have included President John F. Kennedy, President Jimmy Carter, Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall, consumer advocate Ralph Nader, and Cuban leader Fidel Castro.
In the early 1950s, Rappaport quickly emerged as one of Boston's best-known political leaders.[10] The peak occurred when Rappaport succeeded Congressman John F. Kennedy in receiving the Massachusetts Jaycees "Distinguished Service" award as Massachusetts' most Outstanding Young Leader for 1952.[11] Kennedy's award was one of many steppingstones on the road to his becoming a United States Senator. Rappaport's acceptance speech in January 1953 was mostly geared towards inspiring wealthier and more seasoned local businessmen to invest everything they could in Boston's then-languishing economic development program, and "to give more time, energy, and thought to community affairs."[12]
Prior to that his efforts helped John Hynes beat James Michael Curley in the watershed city elections of 1949.[13] The following year Rappaport started to become a centerpiece of Boston's political reform movement when he created the New Boston Committee (NBC).[14] Rappaport received national attention while Curley's popularity spiraled downward. The NBC reached its highest point when ten of the fifteen elected officials who served the city from 1952 to 1954 had been endorsed by the NBC. After Curley's unsuccessful attempt to dismiss the NBC, as a reincarnation of the so-called "Goo-goos" that he had rallied working-class Bostonians against for years, Curley said that he quit the 1951 mayor's race because it was "imperative that...all the candidates endorsed by the New Boston Committee be defeated."[15] Six years later, Rappaport was one of the so-called "enemies" Boston's Rascal King aimed to bury through disparaging remarks published in Curley's autobiography, "I'd Do It All Again."[16]
During this period Rappaport also worked in the John Hynes Administration, established a private law office, and taught a political science class at Boston University.[17] He earned public praise for creating the short-lived Greater Boston Area Council (GBAC), which indirectly led to the creation of the Metropolitan Area Planning Council and Greater Boston's first public television station, WGBH-TV Channel 2.[18]
Urban renewal
[edit]
Less than two years after the NBC and GBAC disbanded during the summer of 1954, Rappaport, Seon Pierre Bonan (a Connecticut and New York City-based developer) and Theodore Shoolman (Boston Realtor whose late father had built The Wang Theatre) began a forty-year business partnership by acquiring the rights to redevelop Boston's West End neighborhood, as part of the national urban renewal program launched by the Housing Act of 1949. After a sixteen-year construction phase the West End Project was ultimately completed. It launched a long era of luxury housing construction in Boston that slowed decades of decentralization. Throughout the 1960s Charles River Park symbolized the critical early successes of the "New Boston" - "proof that higher income families could still be attracted back to the city."[19]
In early 1977, Rappaport was approached by Thomas O'Neill III, then Massachusetts lieutenant governor and the son of U.S. House Speaker "Tip" O'Neill, a friend of Rappaport's, to be part of a group to "Help Cuba become more democratized". Rappaport had met Castro in 1959, when the Cuban leader spoke at the Harvard Law Forum, which Rappaport had founded a decade before. Rappaport and his wife, Phyllis, met and talked with Castro and discussed the many housing projects in Cuba. Rappaport and the group accompanying him toured local schools, restaurants and neighborhoods.[20]
Personal life, family and legacy
[edit]
Rappaport was married three times. His first marriage to Nancy Vahey produced six children: Martha, Amy, Judy, James "Jim", Jerry Jr., and Nancy. In 1963, Nancy Vahey Rappaport[21] committed suicide after a two-year custody battle where she tirelessly sought custody for her six children. Rappaport's second marriage was to Barbara Scott Sears. Barbara had three children from her previous marriage to Dick Sears: Rappaport was highly involved in their upbringing and often refers to them as his children. Together Rappaport and Barbara had two children of their own. The marriage ended in divorce after 10 years.[22][23] His third and final marriage was to Phyllis Rappaport, who is twenty years his junior. Her previous marriage was to a man with the same surname pronunciation, but spelled - Rapaport. Phyllis has two children.[24][25] Together, Rappaport and Phyllis have no children.
In 2006, Boston Magazine named Rappaport the 45th wealthiest Bostonian, with a net worth of about $300 million. It also named the Rappaport family Boston's seventh most influential family.[26]
Rappaport donated his former eight bedroom Roxbury, Massachusetts mansion to the Roxbury Latin School. Thereafter, the school briefly used the mansion to house faculty. After years of disrepair, the school demolished the mansion. The school later renamed the school's football field after Rappaport, calling it Rappaport Field.
Rappaport has been commended publicly and received lifetime achievement awards from the American Jewish Committee and Greater Boston Real Estate Board for being an accomplished real estate pioneer and industry leader, a generous philanthropist, and one of the principal architects of the New Boston. He received an honorary Doctor of Laws degree from Suffolk University in 1998, for "his career of outstanding accomplishments and public service and for his role in reshaping the city's West End neighborhood."[27]
His reputation has also been negatively impacted by a chorus of scholarly and non-scholarly opinions about urban renewal and, in particular, his signature development which resulted from the City of Boston's decision to gentrify a working-class neighborhood. The most widely known book on the subject is "The Urban Villagers," Herbert J. Gans critical analysis of the old area's clearance as an alleged "slum" and the West Enders' displacement from their neighborhood. The West End-Charles River Park experience has been covered thousands of times in books, magazine articles, newspaper columns, and undergraduate and postgraduate papers.
Today, urban planning students are asked to consider if the positive value of the Charles River Park development—consisting of 2,300 units of skyscraper housing, 500,000 square feet (46,000 m2) of retail and office space, 3,400 parking spaces, and an affordable housing building for senior citizens—is outweighed by the destruction of the old West End, and the negative experiences of many whom the City evicted prior to this seminal political, economic and urban planning event.[28]
On Rappaport's 88th birthday in 2015, Boston City Council declared that August 15 will be known as "Jerry Rappaport Day." Rappaport was presented a street sign "Rappaport Way" which will be the new name of a street in Boston's West End. Hundreds attended the party at the Four Seasons hotel in Boston to honor Rappaport and his life.
Rappaport died at his home in Lincoln, Massachusetts, on December 6, 2021.[29][30]
Philanthropy
[edit]
In 1997 Rappaport and his wife established the Phyllis and Jerome Lyle Rappaport Foundation.[31] It has since donated more than $30 million to efforts focusing on public policy, health, and the arts.[32] The bulk of the money has gone to the Rappaport Institute for Greater Boston at Harvard Kennedy School and the Rappaport Center for Law and Public Policy at Boston College Law School.[33] Rappaport's wife, Phyllis, chairs the foundation. Rappaport's two grandsons, James Rappaport Jr., and Diego Arambula, along with stepson, Jonathan Rapaport, serve on the board.[34]
In 1993, Rappaport and other members of the community came together and donated funds to build a Jewish temple in Martin County, Florida. Temple Beit HaYam opened September 1993.[35]
In 1993, along with two of his sons and wife, Phyllis, Rappaport founded the New Boston Fund.[36] Headquartered in Boston, New Boston Fund had grown to include fully staffed regional investment offices in the Washington, D.C. area and Florida. The firm's investment activity totaled more than 23 million square feet of commercial real estate and more than 7,500 residential units.[37] The office space was designed by Architect Colin Flavin. Flavin is married to Rappaport's daughter, Nancy.[38]
The Rappaports are donors to Nantucket Cottage Hospital on Nantucket Island, Massachusetts. Rappaport and his wife attend the annual Boston Pops on Nantucket concert at Jetties Beach. The concert is held annually in August to raise funds for the hospital.[39]
In 2000 Rappaport and his wife Phyllis funded the Rappaport Prize at the deCordova Museum to recognize exceptional contemporary artists with a connection to New England.[40] Prior recipients of the prize: Daniela Rivera (2019), Titus Kaphar (2018), Sam Durant (2017), Barkley L. Hendricks (2016), Matt Saunders (2015), Liz Deschenes (2014), Ann Pibal (2013), Suara Welitoff (2012), Orly Genger (2011), Liza Johnson (2010), David Cole (2009), Ursula von Rydingsvard (2008), Maria Magdalena Campos-Pons (2007), Abelardo Morell (2006), Sara Walker (2005), Debra Olin (2004), John Bisbee (2003), Lars-Erik Fisk (2002), Anne Spileos Scott (2001), Jennifer Hall (2000).
In 2004, Rappaport and his wife, Phyllis, along with co-founders Henry McCance, Jacqui and Jeffrey Morby, co-founded the Cure Alzheimer's Fund.[41][42] Cure Alzheimer's Fund is one of the leading Alzheimer's research foundations in the United States. All organizational expenses are paid for by the Founders and the other Board members by allowing all other contributions to be applied directly to Alzheimer's Disease research.[43]
Rappaport and his wife are supporters and contributors to the Martin County Library System, and Martin Health System in Stuart, Florida.[44][45]
Rappaport was also a supporter and donor to the Atlantic Classical Orchestra in Florida. Rappaport served as chairman of the board of directors from 2013 until 2017. In 2013, ACO was awarded the Rappaport Prize for music composition. The prize is given annually to individuals whose work in public policy, the arts, and science is exceptional. The prize for music composition is $100,000.[46] Works that have been commissioned as a result of the Prize are as follows: For the inaugural year (2014) there were 2 commissioned works: Commission I - Garth Neustadter; Commission II - Jeffrey Parola; Violin Concerto, "The Infinite Dance" by the Chinese-American composer Zhou Tian and performed by Caroline Goulding (2014-2015);[47] Concerto for Piano, "The Oneiroi in New York," by Conrad Tao (2016-2017).[48] The final Prize was awarded during the 2017–2018 season to Hannah Lash. Hannah Lash world premiered "Facets of Motion" in April 2018.[49][50]
In 2014, The Rappaport Center for Law and Public Policy moved to Boston College Law School from Suffolk University as a result of a $7.53 million gift from the Phyllis & Jerome Lyle Rappaport Foundation. The gift was the largest in the 85-year history of BC Law and funded the Rappaport Center and the Jerome Lyle Rappaport Visiting Professorship in Law and Public Policy at BC Law.[51]

Click Here For A Photo of P.S. 156 8th Grade Graduation in 1951
It Is With Much Sadness That We Report The Passing of
Sue-Carol Ludacer Nussbaum, '50, who began these wonderful memories
Okay, here goes:
Where are all the train riders? Where are those of us who stood on the platforms of Laurelton and Rosedale stations and waited for the Long Island Railroad to take us to school?. Where are those of us, who had our own culture, the culture of P.S. 156, and Merrick Road, later to become Merrick Blvd? What happened to those of us who made the choice to go to Far Rockaway and opt for the train instead of the bus to Andrew Jackson High School, thus sublimating ourselves to the overwhelming culture of the Rockawayites? Even now, as I log onto the site, it is overwhelmingly of the Rockaways, the public schools they attended, the shops they frequented and the friends they made.
Let's hear about what happened to that vibrant culture, the kids from Laurelton, who went to Chung's Chinese restaurant and Safran's delicatessen and the Woolworths on the corner of 129th street and Merrick Road. How many remember going to Jamaica to the Valencia theater, with it's fantastic sky-like ceiling filled with stars and clouds, or for our first part time jobs in Macy's or the many shops along Jamaica Ave? Who among you remember the "Itch" our Laurelton movie house and meeting friends there? Is anyone as old as I am who can remember when the Bee Line bus ran along Merrick Road, before it became a Blvd, and the city busses ran on it? Does anyone out there remember Walter's taxi or Marder's pharmacy, and who among you can tell me what happened to P.S. 156, where I made my first friends? Where are you all? I remember Laurelton, and my Irish, German, and Jewish friends as the great melting pot of my youth. I remember going to St. Claire's church in Rosedale with my Catholic friends, because Laurelton didn't have one Catholic church.
I brag about my childhood with anyone who will listen, but where have you all gone?
BTW, I graduated from P.S. 156 in June of 1946. I know it's a long time ago, but there must be some of my classmates a) who are still living, and b) who have learned to use a computer. Let's hear it for Laurelton. We were always in the minority, but that doesn't mean we should remain invisible.

Hello Skip, I just came across the Laurelton site on my computer so I thought I'd put in my 2 cents worth. My parents moved to Laurelton in 1936 when I was 14. My dad had a fruit and vegetable store at 224-11 141st Ave. We lived in 5 rooms behind the store (2 brothers and a sister) I graduated from St Mary Magdalene's grammar school and was fortunate to win a 4 year scholarship to St John's Prep (at that time at Lewis And Willoughby in Brooklyn) worth then about $400.00! I delivered clothing from the tailor shop that was just on the west side or the rr trestle on 243st after school on my bike for 5 cents a delivery. That was my carfare to Jamaica and then on the el to Bklyn. I went to Queens College (up in Jamaica Estates) for 2 years until the war interrupted. I joined the Air Force (at that time it was still part of the U.S. Army) I flew a P-51 on escort missions for B-24s over Germany. I was shot down by ground fire while strafing an airfield after leaving the bombers on the return trip and after evading for two days I was captured and spent the last three months as a POW.
I married in 1948 and we had 2 sons and a daughter. I worked for my uncles at a wholesale grocery they owned in Brooklyn and when they retired I bought it from them. My younger son, Steven, worked with me and took over when I retired in 1978. I have had a full and happy life and I thank God every day for the beautiful family he blessed me with: eight grandchildren and now two great-greats! I live in Rosedale now (since 1945) and spend my time reading,playing games on the computer and reminiscing about "the good old days. God Bless America.

I just found your web site but there are no recent posts so want to be sure it is active. I lived in Laurelton from about 1951 to 1975, always at the same house, 225th st between 135 and 137 avenues. I will be glad to share of myself too, if this is still active. I went to PS156, grades1-6, then JHS59, 7-9, then Andrew Jackson 10-12. Bar Mitzvah from Laurelton Jewish Center...will be the 50th anniversary of my Bar Mitzvah soon.
Thanks.

Hi Skip,
My maiden name was Romanowicz and I have a sister Janet and a brother John. We lived first on 233rd Street - next door to the Rothbards and across from the Horowitz family and up the block from the DesGaines on the corner of 233rd street and 139th Avenue in a big corner house with about 100 rose bushes from about the late 1950's. Attended 156 from Kindergarten with Mrs. Rockower and Mrs. Robinson and then through 4th grade (remember learning French with a Queens accent with Mrs. Schwartz). Then in about 1965/66 or so we moved to Long Island but my mother hated the Island and so we moved back to Laurelton - this time on 230th Street between 138-139th Avenue where we lived until 1974.
We had a lot of great times in both houses. Stickball on the corners, stoop ball, hide and seek, listening for Eddie the Good Humour man and the Doogan man to deliver the milk. I remember playing in 156 school yard tag and the huge Great Dane on the corner next to the school. since the Bungalo Bar man always came at dinner time, we were not allowed to buy from him and actually made up a really sad song about his ice cream. I remember playing hide and seek in the backyards and having block parties where the entire block came out and celebrated together.
Like Calvin Polivy, I too remember Lloyd and Dwight Hutchinson and on my corner there were two brothers whose mother taught piano and who we thought was the most beautiful woman in the world. My next door neighbors on 230th street was Isla (?) Bates and her family and we had a lot of good times together. I was really sad when we made the move to Long Island in 1974 and never felt anything but a true Queens Person. I am now back in Queens, Jackson Heights, and love it.

My aunt and uncle, Hilda and Lenny Strauss, lived across the street from Marty, his brother Barry, and mom Annie Lebu. In the summers my Uncle Lenny would get a game of softball going in the middle of the street. Being significantly younger than the Lebu boys (not so much any more), that was the only time I would interact with them. My cousins are Jeffrey Strauss (deceased), Natalie and Diane Strauss. Others in the game and from the block I recall who would have known Marty are next door neighbor Lois Pohl, Larry Rudin, and Joel and Harvey Brind. There was always a lot going on on that block. Great memories.
My condolences to Marty's wife, children and family.

Hi Skip,
I did not live in Laurelton - our school was called St. Albans. Our home street backed up to Andrew Jackson when it was listed as St. Albans. Later years was called Cambria Heights. I too am looking for classmates. So far - none of responded. There were students from Laurelton who attended my High School. Graduated from St. Albans grammar school: High School: 1942 graduated - 1946 graduated from High School. Sure would love to correspond - remember some of the places you listed in your site. Hope to hear from you. First time going on this site so I hope to hear from some old friends.

Hi every one. My name is Al Rubinstein I did not grow up in Lauralton, but was around there a lot in that the school that I went to P.S. 135 asked me to leave in the 4 grade around 1973. My new school was for now what they now call special education children. It was more of a wear house for kids that got into fights. A lot of the kids came from Lauralton/ Rosedale area. I got to see the neighborhoods because the bus would go thought the area. I also went to Happy Woods daycamp in Rosedale by or in Brookville Park. Once again the bus would go by the neighborhoods.
The questions that I have are, On Francis Lewis Blvd close to Andrew Jackson H.S. is a water of electrical substation. In the very front was a brick cut out and there was a plack to someone or something. It was stolen and I remembered this because I was the last kid off the bus and the driver had made some comments about the changes to the area. Any one remember the plaque? The second question is was there a Jewish Temple within 4 blocks of Jamaica Ave on Francis Lewis blvd. I have done some research and found out that one of the building up there used to be a VFW.

Dear Skip,,
What a great website. I just spent the better part of an evening reading what people wrote. I wish there were more people from Rosedale who participated.
My name is Fran Solecki nee Rosen and I went to PS 138 and then on to Andrew Jackson.I graduated in 1959 and lived in Rosedale until 2004. I am currently living in Glen Oaks but only until January as I just bought a home in the Sebastian area of Florida. Growing up in Rosedale I lived on 147th Rd. I also remember what a great town it was and how life was much more simpler back then. I remember taking a school bus to school and praying it broke down by the cemetery so we could walk home and skip school. Rode my bike to where ever I wanted to go even to Rockaway Beach down Snake Road. After I married (my name became Pomerance back then) I bought a house in Rosedale on 149th Road and my 3 children went to PS 195 and then Springfield Gardens Jr High and then High School. It was a great place to raise my children. As my children were growing up I joined and became active in the various PTA's and then the School Board and the Ambulance Corp. If anyone remembers me or cares to contact me I would love to here from them. My e-mail is fsolecki@gmail.com.

Greetings Skip,
I was born in Brooklyn Jewish Hospital on March 8,1964 and moved into Laurelton 6 months later. I attended 156 and later Jamaica High. Though now called Kings County (the hospital), I believe that PS 156 was monickered The Laurelton School. Minor changes all in all.I write because of a picture I saw on your wonderful site which literally brought me to tears, and my knees. I remember waking up the morning after the owner of Stanleys was murdered and calling all my friends to meet me at the store. I was horrified to see not just his store but the entire block gone due to a fire that was set to destroy evidence of the murder. It was my belief that the owner was in fact Stanley, a crothcetty old man who always seemed like you were bothering him by coming into his store. He had this 300 year old Beagle that was fat as a pig and always appeared to be on his last legs. But we patronized him daily. Bubble gum, sponge balls, comic books and baseball cards all in abundance. The store was always a mess, but he knew where everything was. If it were still there today, in the same condition it would be a candidate for the shoe 'Hoarders'. I will NEVER forget the feeling I got in my stomach when we all arrived at the store. It was surreal. Almost like a dream. I only heard the store burned. When I got there is when we found out the guy had been murdered. He lived in the back of the store and the belief was that he surprised robbers and they killed him. Back then, however, the neighborhood was predominently black, and the rummor started that there were some kids who didn't like a white man running a store in the neighborhood. What ever the case I want to say to you thank you and bless you for this site. I really have nothing but memories to contribute, and most of the folks contributing are from a time a little before mine, but my k-12 years and then some were spent in this town, and now I can relive some of the memories.
Before I sign off, can you tell me what, if anything, was under the traffic circle on 225 st just north of the LIRR station? I've been told that all the sewage pipes for south Queens meet and becom one large pipe going to Jamaica Bay, but cannot get confirmation. Please post that question so someone who might know can contact me. I live in Ft Worth Tx now but get back to NY every now and again. My email is SUNDANCKIDD@yahoo.com. I welcome any and all emails. Again thank you and god bless.
PS- What is the current function of the old LJC?

Hi Skip,
I registered a week or so ago but I’m not sure I used the right address. I’ll send similar material again.
My parents and I moved to 134-36 233rd Street on May 28, 1928. It was still pretty sandy although the newly arriving residents were busily applying topsoil and sod. Our neighbor, Mr. Paul Johnsen was out front watering his new lawn as we drove up to our new house. At age 3, I remember that moment vividly.
I began kindergarten in 1930 at PS 38. By 1931 PS 156 had been completed and I went there to first grade. My teacher was Bessie S. Lee. Second grade was Mrs. Frank. Other teachers I recall were Mrs. Mormile, Mrs. Sears, Mrs. Cross, Mrs. Wilde and Mrs. Wenhold. Joseph Baron was the principal.
By the seventh and eighth grade I was quite interested in candid photography. I had many pictures of our baseball team, general school activities and teachers in the classroom. Mrs. Wenhold did not approve of me snapping her during a music class while in full throat at all. She confiscated my camera and sent me to see Mr. Baron. He too was an amateur photographer and while returning my camera, suggested I pursue more acceptable photographic activities. To help me along, he gave an application form for the New York City public school photography contest. I entered and won three or four blue ribbons plus a cash award! I’ve always thought Mr. Baron did a superb job in that circumstance as an educator and guidance counselor!
Our class graduated in June of 1938. For many years I had the class picture and the leather bound autograph album containing the signatures of my classmates, teachers and friends. Those were lost on one of the moves I made in the ensuing years.
I began Andrew Jackson HS Sept. 1938 and would have graduated with the Class of 1942 had our family not moved from Laurelton to upstate New York on November 27, 1941, ten days before Pearl Harbor which as it happens, was my 17th birthday! I graduated at the high school I transferred to in Chautauqua County, NY.
Some names I remember who were in my class were; Francis Porter, Lita Friedman (our Valedictorian), Eileen McDonald, Warren Carroll, Philip Spitz, Ralph Barasch, Arne Larsen, Owen Rogde, Bernard Marks and Elizabeth Neidermaier.
Others in the neighborhood were Gus Isler, Gertrude Galligan, Marilyn (Mickey) Barlow, Shirley Feldzenfeld, Alvin Dolan, Carlo Solferino, Sonny Maiello, Alice Muller, Albert and Robert Koehler, Stanley Prudowski, Frank Morris and Eileen Raines. I know there were many more.
Reading some of the entries here on this fascinating site I saw a few mentions of the Valencia Theatre in Jamaica. Many years I wrote a paper on the theatre’s design. It was among the last of the “palace” type theatres, featuring moonlit Spanish gardens beneath a sky full of twinkling stars. The designer was John Ebersole. With the advent of sound and the Depression, movie houses became quite different venues.
As for famous people living in the area, one I haven’t seen mentioned was Ray Collins. During the 30’s he lived on 233rd. He was part of the cast of Orson Welles’ radio program, “The Mercury Theater.” With the advent of television, Ray found his niche as Inspector Tragg on “The Perry Mason – Detective” show.
This site triggers so many memories for me, I’ll not bore you with more of them. Laurelton was a great place to live and grow up. If any of you recall any of the people I’ve listed, or know their whereabouts, I’d appreciate your dropping me a line. Thanks.

Hi Skip – I moved to Laurelton from Astoria in 1959, in the middle of sixth grade. Mr. Gambino was my teacher for the rest of that year. I was a shy kid but Laurelton became my safe haven until we were forced by my dad’s work to move to Hollywood, Ca. in the middle of my junior year of high school (Jackson). I don’t think I ever got over it! I guess I wasn’t the only one who loved our neck of the woods. In junior high I worked at a card store on Merrick Blvd. called The Colony I think and got ‘fired’ because I took to long to help an old lady find a card. I lived on 229th street between The Kerman’s and the Levin’s and across the street from the Narby’s. I was in the band with Mr. Haber and took clarinet lessons from Mr. Pendel (a down the street neighbor). I learned to ride a bike with no hands and thought I was so cool when I could turn corners without using the handlebars! “Meet you half way” was a constant refrain – meeting a girl friend between her house and mine. Susan Gluck, Jill Mendelsohn, Paul Marx, Claire Weitz, Judy Tannenbaum strike clear images in my mind. Teachers like Ms Rosenkrantz, Mr. Meehan, those crazy math teacher-sisters, Sugar and ??, that incredible chorus teacher – we sang Exodus on stage and I thought I’d gone to heaven –some crazy French teacher who made us bring in all our green stamps! – and so many others! I’ve stayed in touch with Susan and a few others but was never part of a ‘crowd’. I hung out with my French teacher, Mrs. Pilgrim, almost every day after high school. I remember ‘Sing’ and how amazing the kids who wrote and choreographed the material were. I lived in southern and then northern California for years and now live in Portland, Maine. It is wonderful to hear everybody’s great memories of what I still consider home! Thanks for creating this site.

Dear Skip,
My family moved to Springfield Gardens in 1945, I was 2 ears old. I started school in 1949, at St. Mary Magdalene's I graduated in 1957. I went to Archbishop Malloy H.S. in the Brentwood section of Jamaica. My phone number was LA 5-3488. I remember hanging with Charlie Gerardi, not with his brother Freddie. We hung out on the corner of 225 st and Merrick road (Ed and Lills). with a bunch of other guys, whose names i cannot remember. I remember the parties at Charlies house, about once a month when his parents would go away for the weekend. Nuff said. I also had Tom Ryan as a friend, also My fires true love Diane Tomanelli, who I dated for several tumultuous years, from about 1960 until 1964, the last breakup.
I would like to get in touch with anyone who remembers me. People like Bobby Hoffman, Bobby Hoffmann, Maureen O'hallorne. I also used to hang out at the rock shop next to the bar on 219 th St. Mr Ted Fredericks owned this shop. We became friends along with his wife and Daughter. Mr and Mrs Fredericks, have passed on in the last few years, but their daughter and I have made contact with each other after 45 years.
If you want to know more about Carol Fredericks, just google her name. I have also gotten in contact with Tom Dunphy,after 45 years also. Tom is retired U.S. Air force, and lives in Nebraska. I hung around most all of Laurelton, and yes I do miss it. All for now,

Dear Skip, I didn't go to FRHS, but some of my most vivid memories are of going to FR to swim, usually to Beach 35th Street, starting during WWII when I was in PS 156. Shortly after the war began, the surf started to wash up oily driftwood and tar balls from torpedoed merchant vessels. U- boats came undersea to within almost shouting distance of the beach. They were especially dangerous before the blackout system was enforced. Background light from the City as a whole as well as from boardwalk shops and walking lights was ideal for forming a silhouette of a ship. Much later, during a 1949 heat wave, I went to sleep at the beach with some other guys. (Most people did not yet have home AC.) One who went was Bob Builder, who is registered on this site. Bad idea! The night was noisy, chilly, and damp.Changing the subject, I also have a lot of memories of biking to Hook Creek Boulevard and the area where there is now a large shopping mall across the Sunrise Highway. The most southern part of this neighborhood was marshland and a place where I went crabbing.( Probably polluted, but what did I know?) In the middle of this unoccupied wasteland was a a 3-story edifice ,The [something] Inn, which was widely regarded as a house of ill-repute. To the east was an airfield used by a an aircraft manufacturing plant that after the war first became a drive- in movie theatre and later the aforesaid shopping mall(where someone was killed a few years ago during a sales day stampede). I also remember making a sharp retort to an inebriated, adult bigot, while riding home on the Q5 bus, during Jackie Robinson's first season at Brooklyn.

I read with interest about Laurelton's history and it brought back a lot of memories. Although I lived in Rosedale, I spent a lot of time there. I'm Gary London. I was born 3/31/45 at Park Hospital in St. Albans. It was very small. My mother had the whole second floor to herself. Her 12 day visit cost ninety five dollars! I think the rates have gone up since.
The day after she brought me home, FDR died. My parents were married in Buffalo where my brother Jim was born in 1936. My father went to trade school and they moved to Queens in 1936 and got a job with Granado Appliance repairing radios. He never worked anywhere else until his death in 1976. They moved to 243rd street in "the back" of Rosedale (south of Conduit Ave.) and stayed there until moving to a two family at 134-38 241 Street, one block from Brookville. Granado, by the way, which was owned by Les Mansley and a long Laurelton staple was supposed to be "Granada" but the sign was incorrectly lettered and they left it that way. The original Granado was on Merrick Rd. I know in the city it is Merrick Blvd. but most of us called it Rd, was near 234th street. Then they moved to the corner of Merrick and Francis Lewis. It was an old supermarket. I being there as a youngster when it was being gutted. Granado stayed there until moving to Valley Stream where it still is in business, being run by Ernie and Greg, Les' sons. A Martin Paint store replaced Granado.
The 241st. house was two family. But the owners lost it and my parents took it over. We had a border living upstairs but the downstairs was too small for a family of four and it became single family in 1950. My brother and I both went to P.S. 38, a half block from home. What a horrible school. They had these old workhorses as teachers and it is
guessed they let the have the end of their careers in a nice lily white school. The principal was the legendary Mertie M. Cool, who weighed over 300 pounds and barely five feet tall. She treated everybody like 38 was a concentration camp. She once bawled out the parents in the audience at a graduation glass for applauding for each of the only 32
graduates. She didn't want to waste the time.I was told after I left 38, that Miss Cool would not accept the grant money from the city to maintain the school. "I'm not wasting my tax money on that place!" What a gem. Coming home from a field trip on the bus, I began singing "Around Miss Cool in 80 days." The teachers all joined in. Among the teachers was Justina Murphy, maybe the most unattractive woman on earth. She had a bad temper and she hated everyone that wasn't in her class. I was in the 7th grade when she taught the 8th (thank God). We were playing a softball game one day and my buddy Dick Schaefer, playing right field ran past the centerfielder who was asleep and made a great rolling catch, costing Murphy's class three runs. She yelled at him saying he had no right to catch that ball! One teacher, Mrs. Houston had us working in the garden all year. We didn't learn anything. The last two years, 7th and 8th, I had Miss Flack, a music teacher. All we did was sing. When we got to high school, one of the Jackson teachers had a bunch of us in her math class.She wondered why we didn't know anything. I remember every week we had a fire drill and an air raid siren alert because Khruschev was going to bomb us! It's amazing we weren't paranoid.
Across from Brookville Blvd was Twin Ponds or "Twinnies" as we called it. I walked through the vacant lot behind my house and crossed Brookville and went fishing. We used to catch lots of carp. It was great. Then around 1954, they widened the parkway and the ponds dried up. They use to ice skate in the winter and Jim's friend Eddie Campbell
fell in one night I remember. The parkway project made things a mess. Two houses were moved from north of Merrick several blocks near St. Clare's church. They were moved on railroad tracks and it took a long time. I still know which two houses they are. I wonder if the current owners are aware of it? They had to build a temporary wooden bridge while the new ones were installed. I remember one day traffic was stopped for blocks. A woman was too scared to drive over it. Another motorist had to take the wheel.
Laurelton was like a small city. I understand the name was for a housing development that never got built. Laurelton's mail was handled up to 232nd Street by Springfield Gardens, higher up by Rosedale. Laurelton was the name of the phone exchange. There was lots of shopping in Laurelton. In fact you could by a new Nash at Herman Motors by the Texaco station on Laurelton Parkway. There was a used car lot on Merrick between 229th and 230th streets. It was run by a bald headed guy. For years I yelled "Hey Baldy" from my Andrew Jackson school bus. He tried to run after the bus but never caught it. I guess he was gonna deny his folicle shortcomings! Homeyer Ford was near 219th Street I think, then there was Laurel Chevrolet.
I made a lot of trips to Laurelton. There was virtually no stores in Rosedale. I walked with my mother and she pushed my old baby carriage to carry the groceries. Right at the corner was Tommy Lynch's custard stand. Us kids were lucky, we could get ice cream without crossing the street. The there was Jo-Art's fruit stand. Joe Cuneo was Italian but he always had an Irish brogue and told everybody his name was O'Riley. I have no idea why. Then came Valerio's beer distributorship. Then we crossed Brookville and walked over the bridge. The Sunrise supermarket was across the street. Things went downhill later when it became Grand Union. Next door was the Diamond ravioli store and
the Laurelton Luncheonette. Melo's cleaners was there a long time. Many of the next stores changed over the years. I remember a toy store. Then came Twin Pond's Bakery and on the corner the candy store. My parents were good friends with the Jack Resnicks who owned it. They moved to run another business but they rented it first to Al Burd,
then Moe and Shirley Weissman and then Manny and Zelda Borenstein. At Manny's & Zelda's it was like the TV show Cheers with egg creams the attraction instead of beer. Many of us spent a lot of time there and a lot of laughs. Dankner's pharmacy was in the next block. My father liked to buy presents there because they gift wrapped everything. Then came the 'second candy store." It was run by concentration camp survivors who used to stand in front of the store so passersby would see the ID's etched on them.
Crossing 233rd street was Kearn's bicycle shop. Mrs. Kearns was quite a card, kind of a 50's Roseanne. I remember her husband went to Basso's next door, bought a rope and hung himself. Next to the barber shop was the Atlantic meat market and Jacob's Deli. the Jacobs were from Germany like most deli owners and had great goodies. Drutt's Men's store was next. Mr.and Mrs. Drutt were like all the older Jewish store owners you see in movies. There were nice people. My mother used to buy shirts in there and they let her pay a dollar a week. I remember across Merrick when they built the bank. It was called Springfield Gardens first. There was another branch on the corner of Merrick and Springfield. Also on that side was Zlotnick's shoe repair. He was a nice man. He always donated an award at PS 38 graduations. The highlight was Whelan's drug store. They had a refrigerated drawer where they had Hershey's bars. There was nothing better on a hot day than an ice cold almond bar, for six cents. Loomis hardware and Wong's take out restaurant were regular stops. The Ridgewood bank was across from Granado and it was help up one day and the cops used Granado across the street as a HQ. I almost forget Eddie's variety store in which he sold a lot of cheap junk.
The next block was a nightmare. That's where the A & P was. Since we had a small freezer, my mother had to shop almost every day. In the A & P, butchers waited on you and the women used to fight like cats and dogs to get waited on. I was happy when my mother chose Dilberts or Bohack instead. There was an appliance store on 229th & Merrick but I can't remember the name of it. There was nothing like stopping in Raab's lunchenette on a hot day. There were the first store to have AC and it used to be freezing there. The Laurelton theater was on that block and we spent many days there. A true legend was Zickerman's Hardware. They had everything, if they could find it. We seldom went beyond the movie theater. I do remember there was a photography store by 225th next to the Chinese restaurant. I ended up working at the post office one year. It was a dump.
The Woolworth's on 229th and Merrick was a regular stop. I can still remember how it smelled. I was happy when Joliz record store opened by the show repair. I think it was 227th and Merrick. Thinking back a few blocks, Laurelton was very small town. When you walked past Schindler's shoe store, the owner would look at your feet to see if you were wearing his product. They had a box you stuck your feet in and it took X-rays to see if they fit right. Not only didn't that make any sense but the government outlawed them for safety.
Then in 1958, Green Acres shopping center was built and our days at Laurelton, except for Manny & Zelda's were pretty much gone. Green Acres was built on the site of Curtiss Field. My brother flew his model airplanes there. Speaking of planes, during WWII, a plan crashed (think it was military) into the farm which later become the supermarket between Laurelton Parkway and 234th St. My grandmother took my brother to see it. This reminds me of the dog kennel by 233rd. I remember when the Rosedale bowling alley was built in 1960. Sadly it's gone. I bowled at Pavillon in VS where Texas Guinan used to have her night club. The alleys in Green Acres and Valley Strean Rec. are all gone too. I have read several time that the first McDonalds was on Brookville and Merrick. That is wrong. It was Merrick and 243rd. It was not an eat in. They tore it down and built the one across the street. That corner for years was O'Connor's tavern. They tried to build a school there before realizing the noise from the airplanes would make it impractical. For years the unbuilt school lay there before finally putting up office buildings. The airplane noise was unbearable. When the wind blew from the south, they flew right over our house. You couldn't sleep, watch TV and talk on the phone. Complaining to a local politician, he told my mother that she shouldn't have moved so close to the airport. She explained that the house was there long before Idlewild. One other memory was not of Laurelton but I bet a few of you went there. There was a Richard's drive-in on Sunrise Hwy in RVC. I think it is where the King Kullen is. They had great hot dogs on a seeded roll. A dog and a milk shake were fifty cents! There were lots of memories and reading this site helped me remember. I hope I help some recall some things too. I'm not far away. I moved from Rosedale to Valley Stream in 1984.

I lived at on 230Th Place & 138 Avenue from the mid 1930s to 1952 when I graduated college and went to Princeton,NJ with my wife to start my engineering life which took me all over the world. My sister lived on 228 Street & Merrick Blvd. where her husband practiced dentistry and raised her family. I went via the LIRR to Brooklyn Tech HS. and later to college at Brooklyn Poly. I now live in Los Altos, Ca. The picture of PS 156 brought back memories of basketball games with buddies like Bob Cousy who went on to Holy Cross and later starred for the Boston Celtics. We played for the Jewish Center vs other teams. There were stables in Rosedale and we rode the horses to beaches since rural life had not yet been taken over by the city.

Hi Skip:
I came across your website looking for an old friend and it brought back to really nice memories. I never lived in Laurelton but came to know it well. My father operated a Kosher butcher shop next to Mulvaney's Tavern from the mid-40's to 1959. Cutler Bros. was it's name and I spent many summer days on a bike delivering orders to his customers. I believe the name of the Italian restaurant was Capri, not Carpi as shown on your site. Good food - they actually bought some of their meat from my father - at least the meatballs were Kosher.

Hello,
My name is Donna Noble. I was Donna Thomas. My address was 219-19 134th Rd. Laurelton, NY 14113. My father was in the Air Force so we lived there only 2 years between 1967 & 1969. I was born 1961. I went to St Mary Magdalene Catholic School. I remember riding the bus on Merrick Blvd with my grandmother. I remember riding the L downtown. I got my ears pierced when I lived in NY. I remember a really bad snow storm I think the winter of 1967 and the snow was above the cars. I live in Colorado and don't ever remember a snowstorm that bad here. I remember the day MLK was shot. St Margaret Teresa was my teacher. I remember lining up in the morning by height when it was time to go in. There were two sets of twins who were shorter than me. One each in my class and one each in the other first grade. I had a friend who lived down the street name Cheryl . I remember two boys in my class. Glen Ramos and Anthony something. I remember the cloak room. I remember milk time. My church had Bingo. I also remember for lunch my mom would put an orange in my lunch and a straw. She had squeezed it so I got juice. Cool. I will talk to my sister when I get home to see what memories she has.
I went on Bing Maps and saw the view of my house.
I can be reached at donna.noble@qwest.com I am also on Facebook. (DMN)

Hello Laurelton "kids" (especially LJC alumni). I am happy to report that I happened to find Rabbi Saul Teplitz living happily in retirement in South Florida. My wife and I visited him, and his wife, a few months ago. Although he did not remember what was served at our wedding in 1957 (neither do I), he is in pretty good shape and it was very pleasant to briefly re-capture a little lost youth.

From Gary L. Schechter, M.D. P.S. 156 Class of 1952.
What a delightful finding!! I was "Googling" my old H.S. fraternity, AZA, when the 156 website came up. Life for me in Laurelton was fantastic. Even when they took a couple of years to put in the sewer system and ripped up all of the streets, we had a blast. P.S. 156 itself was a great experience, but what the people and streets of Laurelton had to offer were equally fantastic. Traveling to Far Rockaway H.S. on the L.I.R.R. daily, living with the real "Fonzees," being able to slip into Manhattan as a teenager, safely I might say, and growing up with the Merrick Road culture, made us all better people as we matured. I could go on, but I would be preaching to the choir.
My family moved out to Merrick in 1954, so I graduated from Mepham H.S., but that did not negate the benefits of growing up in Laurelton. My life has been blessed with education, a professional degree ( I am a retired surgeon), a wonderful family ( 1 wife of 52 years, 3 children all off the payroll, and 7 grandchildren of dubious personalities ), but my story inevitably starts back one way or other to the P.S.156 school yard, Mr. Shields shop class, the matron herding the kids in the movie theatre, or Shary's (?sp) bakery on Merrick Road. What a life. Thanks to you all for putting this website together. What fun to think of those days.

Skip, I was looking for the spelling of Charlotte Russe a delicious sponge cake and whipped cream treat that Woolworth’s used to sell.
I came across your Laurelton site. I grew up in a non-English speaking German neighborhood (children had to speak English and were not allowed to speak German) in Glendale, NY off Myrtle avenue – went to St. Pancreas school and church and yes I remember the Valencia theater. I was 9 years old when we moved to Jamaica. I was one of 6 children and we lived at 69th place. Mrs. Holser was the landlady upstairs. When the 6th child was due, Mom & Dad (a Police Sgt. In NY) had to find a house. The war was over and they finally could buy a home. Mr. Bock was the ice man who lived next door (but we had a refrigerator). The coal man would come and deliver and on our birthday we could have seltzer water and syrup.
During the war with ration coupons, we had to take turn going to the grocery store to buy detergent. My Dad worked down near the slaughter houses in NY, so we were lucky to have meat and he made sure his 3 sisters and Mom and Dad did too.
So many memories – a good childhood in the neighborhood – we would take the trolley on Myrtle Avenue to Forest Park. The Monpoly game never quit on the front stoop and whoever had to go to dinner, someone would fill in.
Thanks for the memories. I now live in So. California, but still enjoy going back to the East Coast.

Skip,
I just stumbled on your website and it brought back nothing but good memories. I grew up in Laurelton...I spent my early years in the Garden Apartments and then moved in my grandparents house at 130-29 233rd Street. My grandparents were the Borucks, who were involved with Temple Beth El. My mother Carol, and my aunt Lois went to PS 38. That's where I went to school until I moved to NJ in 1972. I have great memories of my time in Laurelton. Walking to school, passing all the stores on Merrick Road, getting Egg Creams with my grandfather, going to the bakery(don't remember the name) playing stickball at PS 38, playing punchball wherever we could, football games on the grass at 38. Anytime I go to see relatives on LI, I take my kids past the old house. They say "you grew up there??", and I tell them about how much fun it was. I remember going to see Lew Alcindor(Kareem Abdul Jabbar) play basketball in the school yard. I could go on forever...
Anyway, great job on the website and hopefully someone from the old neighbor remembers me and gets in touch.
Thanks!!

Skip,
My name is Joe Ferrara and I grew up with my sister Pat, and brother Tom at 131-29 227th St. My family moved there in 1953 and moved in 1970. I went to
PS132, JHS59 and Andrew Jackson. My friends at the time were Jay Katz, Stan Marcus, Marty Reich, Mark Sauerhoff, Larry Stark, Rita Smith, Paula Katz,
Johnny Butera, Barbara & Steven Katz, Gary Weintraub, Eddie Rothlein, Kenny Hason, Arnie Feldman, Alex Papako, Michael Fisher, George Burner, Mark Weiner, Bonnie and Andrea Kwardowitz(spelling?), Cynthia Dilbert, Jerry and David Robbins, Steven Kessler, Janet Marcune, and the one I married Claudia Lahti. I know I have forgotten many others but hopefully people will recognize some of the names and reply with their own lists. We hung out by the Depot and Burt and Daves doing nothing and everything. The best times of my life were spent in Laurelton, and you cannot seem to explain it to people today without gettting the "look" like "what are you talking about?".
How can you explain the good old days without sounding like you come from another planet? Yet Laurelton stands out as being the one place that I've ever
heard of that still has hundreds, if not thousands of people still going to reunions of a town not a school. Where growing up was a magical experience
that can never be duplicated. What a wonderfull time and childhood I had there. It has been a great trip back in time to read all the letters sent in. THANK YOU FOR SHARING IT.

Hi Skip,
I remember a few places, like the old laundromat on the corner of maybe 229 or 230th street, south side. I used to hang out there in the 60's with a gang called the Warlords. (probably better forgotten)

Hi Skip,
My parents moved into our home at 135-08 227th St two months before I was born in 1952. We lived there until I graduated from Springfield Gardens High School in 1970. After attending PS 156 from K-6th grade, I was in the transition class at JH 59 when it turned from 7-9th grade to a 6-8 and was in the first 9th grade at the new Springfield Gardens High School. Saturday mornings found me at the Laurelton Theater watching the movie with the matron in the white coat and flashlight keeping us in order. I’d then go to the pizza place on the corner of 227th and Merrick Rd to have a slice and a drink all for a quarter. Mrs. Goldschmidt was my fifth and sixth grade teacher. I now live in Portland Oregon and teach a second/third grade mixed age class of wonderfully diverse children- I have ten languages in my classroom. I’ve been trying to find three friends from my Laurelton days but have been unsuccessful. Does anyone know how I can contact Arlene Gottesfeld, Mary Stabile, and Ellen Shaddock (sp)? Arlene and Ellen lived in Laurelton and Mary lived in Rosedale. I know Mary lived in Mass for a while and I think moved to the South. Arlene lived in San Antonio, TX for many years but no longer lives there- I heard she might have returned to NY. The last time I connected with Ellen she still lived in NY. I’ll be in NY in mid January 2010 so I would love to be able to reconnect with them. Thanks for hosting this site- it’s wonderful to hear about all these Laurelton memories. Take care,

Thanks Skip, I know it must be a hard job to update all the inputs you get. I am lucky I still can see the keyborad , I made it to 80 last March. Some clam diggers from back on L. I. came out for the party.
Again thanks for all your hard work. I had received 4 e-mails that knew about my Uncle and the dog kennel.
I just spoke to my cousin Ernest Engerer jr. he graduated for Jackson. It was his 89 birthday and he is doing great . Lives in Elmont with his wife and now has 7 grandkids all fromhis 4 Daughters. HE IS VERY LUCKY THAT HE DID NOT FOLLOW HIS FATHERS FOOTS STEPS. LION TRAINING IS NOT A LONG TERM JOB.
I know most of the folks came to Laurelton a few years after he went on the road with his circus and cats. His dog kennel caused lots of problems for folks living near by - with the dogs barking and the cats howling in the night . I remember it all . Lucky my Father moved to Valley Stream when I was about 10.
If anyone is in my cousin Ernie's age bracket 89, I can send them a photo from the L. I PRESS showing Ernest Engerer jr. at 18 years of age in the Lion's cage training a cat and it reads "Andrew Jackson highschool student training lions".
Lucky for Ernie, the U. S. Army drafted him , and gave him a better job. Training dogs. End on Story time .

Hi Skip,
This might seem like a strange request but I was wondering if anyone had an ORIGINAL PIONEER 1960 YEARBOOK from AJHS (Jackson H.S) that they would be willing to part with. Unfortunately I was unable to buy one at that time and have been using a "xerox copy" for many, many years. I will gladly pay for it and shipping costs to Florida. Thanks,

I graduated from PS 156, from Mrs. Seligson's 6th grade class, in 1961. Our entire class made "SP" and that was big news. I remember bringing "milk money" and "bank money" and having to freeze for 1 minute when the bell rang outside, before lining up. I remember the strange little garden outside in the playground. I remember indoor recess games, standing on big white circles painted on the black floor. I remember eating lunch in the auditorium with my farmhouse lunchbox and thermos. I really wanted the pink and blue fairytale lunchbox.
At JHS 59 my friends were Rita Simon, Ronnie Kanner, Linda Lee, Susan Bayliss and Raymond Wong. We had bus passes for the Q5 that came in different colors each month, that we saved. Ronnie and I were bathroom monitors, and someone stole our pocketbooks with our collection of bus passes. We lived at 135-25 227 St. The boy-next-door was Neal Dreznin, and I sat on the bar of his bike and we rode all over town. Ms. Schneider, the 3rd grade teacher, lived on our block. There was an ex-jockey who kept a horse, and occasionally he would drive down the street riding a sulky. On our street we had Big Barbara and Little Barbara, Neal Dreznin, David Kaback, David Scher, my family (Reba, Jay and Hope Harris) and more. The boys had endless games of catch and stoop ball. All the kids would play games in the street till the lights came on: I Declare War, Scully, Ringo Levio, Ghost. Then we'd sit on the front porches and play "Cars." Whoever picked white or black was sure to win. In the summer we sold lemonade on Merrick Road, and once we dug up the backyard for a minigolf course, and charged admission to play. I'd like to give a shout-out to Mrs. Rand, the ever-patient children's librarian on 225th St.
Our family was a member of the Young Israel of Laurelton. I remember Good Food grocery, Oscar Krieger's butcher, and the printing store where my mom worked with Connie Najmark. We lived back to back with the Vims, and across from Rabbi Romineck, the Finks and the Benjamins. I remember with fondness these friends from the Young Israel: Paula and Gary Katz, Ruthy & Phyllis Gluckman. Jerome & Barry & Phyllis Schwartz, Rena & Alan Jochnowitz, Eddie Parver, Mindy & Ephraim & Yossi Weinblatt, Joey Mayerhoff, Lisa Benjamin, Danny & Ira & Philip Goldschmidt, Leslie Pearl, Chaim & Meyer Fisher, Esther Fried, Merrill Silverstein, Sally Rottenstreich, Doris & Michael Kreisler, the Breitbart girls, Marilyn & Kenny Povodator, Leslie Pearl and more. We had Brownies and Girl Scouts and Little League and Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts. We proudly marched each year in the Memorial Day Parade. We had backyard BarBQ's with lots of lighter fluid. We had jobs baby sitting, lawn mowing, delivering newspapers, assisting in youth groups and washing cars.
Laurelton was, and is, a beautiful neighborhood, and I have only the best memories.

I was searching the internet for a vendor in Laurelton and I stumbled across the Laurelton website. I grew up in Laurelton, went to 156 and 231 and then off to Jamaica High School. I went to 156 in the early 80's. Also was in the girl scouts for years at the Good Lutheran. I have recently moved to Bellerose, but one thing has remained consistent my place of worship. You know it as the old Laurelton Theater, but from the age of 8 I have attended this church. It kept me off the streets, and I've learned so much at this ministry. God blessed us last year to renovate the building from the middle of 227th to the end of the block (use to be Gordon's photographers). Would love for you to stop by to see the renovation at our Street Festival, Saturday, July 18th, 12:00-6:00pm (flyer attached).
I'm just a proud member that grew up in this neighborhood and love my church and after I saw all of the reflections down memory lane, just wanted to give you an update.

Greetings Skip:
I hope you guys still post on here. My name is Chris DeWald and I used to live at 139-11 Springfield Blvd. Like others , I remember my phone number. It was Laurelton 5-3789. I was born in Jamaica Hospital. I lived above a Dr's office. His name was Irving Yarvin and my mother was the nurse. I attended St Mary Magdalenes and graduated in 1969. Since I seemed to get stabbed going to school either under the train tressels or by Corseys market, my parents moved to Sag harbor. Anyone remember the duck and cover drills? Someone mentioned the Funeral Home across from Bohacks. My father, William, had his funeral service there. I eventually went into the military and am now retired from civil service in Virginia.

Hi Skip:
I was two years ahead of you at PS 156, but left Lauralton in January of 1952 and lost touch with everyone I knew. The recollections of my first three and one half years of grammar school are hazy, but I do remember with affection Bruce Zeitlin, Rosemarie Vacarro, and seeing my first movie, "The Day the Earth Stood Still" in the theatre on Merrick Road. I lived on 244th Street. I'd like to donate something to the web site. let me know how to do that.

Hi Skip,
Thank you so much for your website. You enabled lots of people to reconnect. There will be a Jackson reunion from the '60's Mar. 18-22, 2010 on a cruise starting in Miami.
I started thinking of all the things about Laurelton that I loved. It was the parades that happened at the drop of a hat. We had them for Memorial Day, Labor Day, any time a synagogue got a new Torah, the fourth of July. We always met at P.S. 156 and marched all over town stopping at all the churches, synagogues, civic associations and War Veteran posts. It was the four synagogues, the 10 kosher butcher shops. I loved the Jewish Community House. I became a Bat Mitzvah there. I remember the lessons before it. I loved the Friday night services and the junior congregation. I remember getting kicked out for talking on Shabbat mornings and high holidays.
I remember going to Dr. Fine and Dr. Kaveller (spelling?)Dr. Tesch and my husband went to Dr. Robbins. Did anyone else go to them? Does anyone remember the Laurelton Young Adult Group/ATID? We have great memories of it.
Do you remember the bagel place and the appetizing stores? How about Stanley's toy store? What about the movie theater and ice cream store?
I spent summers at 156 playing kickball and nok hockey.
Thanks for the memories.

Hi---Just found your site and as I was going through it I came upon the street guide and since I lived off Merrick and 227Th, two popular stores came to mind. I think there was the "Laurel Shoppe" on the corner of 227th (North side) and next to it a shoe repair shop where the employee worked by the front window and would "talk to us". Does anyone remember these stores???? This is a wonderful, wonderful site and I could spend hours just remembering all the great things we had back then.

Hi Skip,
Nice board you're running.
My name is Peter McGullam, and I lived on 222nd Street near 131st Avenue from 1960 until the late '60s. I have warm memories of friends and teachers from JHS 59 (James Morris, Mr. Buchanan, who got our chorus on the Dave Garroway show, with Harry Belafonte!) and Andrew Jackson High, not to mention the Epiphany Lutheran Church (Rev. Ted Grant, the Graf family, the Smileys; the James Morris family; the Fensterers), Bob Richter, Idan Simowitz (from Jackson). I count as best friends, to this day, Milton Forrest (from Springfield Gardens) and Fred Schultz (from 225th Street; neighbors were the Brede family.
I've had no luck contacting one friend, a few years older (probably born around 1944): George Morgan, whose family lived on 226th Street near 131st Avenue. He moved, I believe, to Nashville around 1970. If anyone on this board remembers him (he had no siblings), I'd appreciate info. If you remember me, drop me a line!

Hello, Skip very interesting and well done site with lots of history. I am trying to track down Kern's Bicycle shop which is referred to as a neighborhood business a couple times on the site. Does anyone know what its location was? I have an address of 1101 W. Broadway, but I don't see any such address in Laurelton (indeed in Queens, except perhaps for 11-01 Broadway in Long Island City). There is an 1101 W. Broadway in Woodmere. Is it possible Kern's Bicycle Shop was there? Thanks,

Dear Skip,
I am reading the messages on your site. . .and it's like an acid flash. how many people can remember not only their addresses but their telephone numbers!
I was born in 1944 and we moved to 130-28-225th Street when i was 2 months old. I have no idea what class I would have been in because from the first day of kindergarden I knew I wanted to be nothing so much as a truant! The ITCH! The magnificent \VALENCIA! MOVIES to learn all about life!
I know Mrs. Flinka was principal (i think my mother bought her 11 thousand chatchkes -- bribes -- so I wouldn't get expelled).
My friends were judy hertzendorf, joyce sunilla, betty chang (of chang's restaurant). and I remember the schwartz twins, donny and wally? And even though i'd have to look down right now to see what i'm wearing, my telephone number was LA 8 1453.
That attached house, is still the house in my dreams (although i looked in the window recently and i'd bet the farm that is a functioning house of repute that is ill). And who knew that bernie madoff lived on 228th street? feh.
My name was Ronni Warren and i'd kill to hear from anyone who is 65 and still alive. What a great and emotionally charged website. Best,

Hi Skip,
Great site. But I was wondering. One of the options was PS 38 but nothing was listed. I went to PS 38 from the 6th to 8th grade (1955 to 1958) and then moved to Far Rockaway and graduated from there in 1961. There's such an unusual crossover since kids in Laurelton were given the choice - Andrew Jackson or Far Rock.
I would love to find friends from PS 38 like Annette Gissi (who was my best friend all those years) Lois Boruck, Avis Goldstone, Peter Gamar, Carmine Lanzaro, Barbara Ehrlich (sp?), Joel Weinstein, Ruth Sohlberg (sp?), Linda Pearson and many others whose names elude me now.
I lived at 131-12 234th Street. My brother also went to PS 38 but he is three years behind me. His name is Robert Mirsky, AKA Butchie. I now live in Santa Barbara, CA and my named is Eileen Barish, nee Mirsky. Maybe there are some old friends living in California. But I'd like to hear from any of you. Thanks for this posting.

Hi,
I lived in laurelton in the 40's thru 60's. i lived on 232 st off merrick road. My memory is waning with the years but some of my happiest years were spent there. There is a site that is trying to make a store map of these times and there are a few things i can add. I went to bassos deli where they were yankee fans and listened to a cleveland yankee game there. We also bought our christmas trees from basso and i remember fondly we as a family walked it home and mom made us hot chocalate with marshmellows. Something not mentioned was across merrick road from 232 was a tomato farm with horses and we played ball there and picked tomatoes. Later stores were added and no one mentions this lot or farm. There was a haberdasher store there owned by my next door neighbor and a chinese restaurant where i would get a 60 cent lunch paid for by my press route which I had running the length of 232 street 98 papers i was never so rich again.
I was an acquaintence of jacky kerns and remember his father a jovial looking character who i felt was always in his cups. My good friend was charlie sterry whose father owned sterrys bar where we would go and listen to him sing vaudeville and irish songs while playing the drum sticks on a wooden piece of bar. My bedroom was on the ground level and I would often hear mr sterry whistling at night walking home after the close of his bar for the night. I went to ps 156 and then on to woodrow wilson hs while most went to andrew jackson. Since the city bars closed early we would often go to bars in nassau like the trees lounge in valley stream which I believe was made famous years later by steve buschemi. We would sometimes go to tony's and get a 60 cent small pizza which I could eat myself. My brother worked for a while in the italian shoemaker mentioned and always hated that the guy would spit on the floor. When I walked to the movie I passed a chinese restaurant that had a beautiful fish tank with some kind of small eel looking fish that would come out from hiding every so often. As a kid I was fascinated by it. Inside they had flags and posters of free china during the war. Everyone was patriotic and many windows had blue stars in them.
I remember there was a canteen around the corner along merrick road that I was too young to enter at the time but remembered the teenagers hanging out at. I remember vj day when everyone went up to merrick road and the streets were jammed with celebration. Iremember trudging thru knee high snow in the blizzard of 47 i think, to ps 156. Schools were not closed for snow in the city.
More thoughts float in and out but that's all II can do for now. Keep up the memories. Keep up the good work. Fondly,

Thanks a big bunch for keeping this web site up. It allowed Tom Smith to find me a few months ago and last month when my wife Liz and I were in Palm Beach, FL on vacation:
1. We contacted and visited Warren Colozzo and his wife Adele. Warren and I had not seen each other since our grade school graduation June, 1949 - almost 60 years ! We both are fine and reminisced an entire afternoon away. Warren is retired after a career as a professional roller-skater (it all started at the Elmont Rink after WW II, owner of some roller rinks, PanAm, and then the Palm Beach County police.
2. The next day we visited with Ada Mae "Bunny" Wayne, married name Weinberg. Unfortunately Bunny's husband died last year. She is permanently down in Del Ray Beach now, after leaving Chicago. Two children, two grandchildren. Another visit packed with laughs.
All the best,

It's a small world! Tonight I was at a party in Simi Valley California. A girl asked me what part of NY I was from, the accent is so recognizable! I said Queens she asked where, I said Laurelton, she looked at me and said her parents owned the Jewish Deli on Merrick and Francis Lewis!!!! Unbelievable! I spent many a wonderful lunch and dinner there! We enjoyed talking about the old neighborhood. Back then she lived in Valley Stream, but the restaurant was in Laurelton, next door was that little Italian pastry shop. I e mailed her the web site and I hope she enjoys reading all about Laurelton memories. Thanks

Recently found the Laurelton web site. Lot's of fun going back in time, and stirring up old memories. My name is Laurie Kerner Beller, I graduated Andrew Jackson in 1964, was very active in Sing. I lived in Rosedale, but most of my friends were Laureltonians. I went to a 60's reunion a number of years ago. First a tour of the school, and then in the evening , an event at Huntington Town House. I thought it was very disorganized, and it was hard to connect with people. Hopefully at some point there will be another. Jackson was such a large school, it was hard to have a one on one at the function. The Town House is huge, and the affair was a bit disorganized. If anyone is out there from this time frame, please respond. Thank you, L.

The Store Map---1950's early 60's:
Dilbert's was a grocery store on the North side of Merrick, I think between 226th and 227th- not between 230th and FSB. My older brother Barry worked there for a time. It was owned by a local family who had a son about our age-cannot recall his name now. They later opened a branch in Rockville Center. I think Dilberts was on the same block--if not next door--as Handler's Candy Store--owned by parents of Sigma Phi, Alpha Pi brother Artie Handler, also his younger (??) brother Howie. They lived behind the store and we spent hours hanging out there. Right around the corner on 226th Street was Tom's barber shop.
A door or two west of the Laurelton Theatre was also a barber shop opened by a barber who once worked at Tom's and struck out on his own--I can see his face but cannot remember his name. Very handsome distinguished looking guy with perfectly coiffed gray hair. The beauty parlor on that block was owned by the Myer's family--their son Barry is one of ours. I think he lives somewhere in Fla. now.
I also worked at the Busy Bee, along with lots of others (Stan Officina, Larry Frank, etc.)--Northeast corner of FSB & Merrick across from the Ridgewood Bank--behind the counter as a soda jerk and short order cook and "making" the weekend newspapers (loved it--everyone in the world came in sooner or later--to grab a an egg cream, cherry coke, lime ricky, malted, ice cream, milk shake, burger, fries and chat, then hung out on the corner in front, just like in legend, plotting their next move, waiting to see and be seen and doing "Doo-Wopp" under the street light). I remember other stores on that block did include the 4 Star bakery and a kosher sit down deli--can't remember the name and, of course, Stanley's toy store and hobby shop on the corner of 230th Street. Remember the owner so well. Kindly guy with dark hair. Heard he was killed in a robbery there a long time ago. Anyone have confirmation or details of that rumor??? I think there was a travel agency next door to the Ridgewood Savings Bank.
And who can forget Mulvaney's Tavern. Hate to admit how many wasted nights there were on that shuffle board machine, drinking beer and whatever after a long day at one of the local race tracks or a hard day of poker games. Gosh, some of us were real bums, weren't we??
On corner of 231st Street and Merrick---Northwest side on the corner was indeed Korn's where we bought all our Boy Scout gear, baseball mitts, jeans and khaki pants. Next to that-towards FSB I think was some kind of furniture store. Then Dial Drug Store owned by ????--where Michael Ginsberg and I think, Larry Frank. worked as a delivery boys.
Across the street, near Capri, was Feldman's Butcher Shop, an old fashion biz with saw dust on the floor where I worked awhile for a buck an hour and nickel tips as a delivery boy--on a broken down old bike with a huge basket. Also worked as a bus boy at Capri. Mamma used to fix the greatest dinners
for the waiters, bus boys and kitchen staff every night before the dinner crowd came in. Terrific. Never had it better!!
Gosh, what age does to you. Took for granted I would remember with precision all those places and people forever. Now, cannot dredge it all up without help. Anyone???

Hi Skip
A few Laurelton Buddies from the 1960's got together and came up with names of our fellow classmates in PS 156. We all graduated in June, 1965. Can you please post this message we would like to see what old classmates will get in contact with us.
Thanks,
Kurt, Mike, Glen
The Decade Was The 1960's...........The Place Laurelton, Queens. We had great times and we were to young to figure out that town would be home even though most of us moved away. Remember Weekends at The Laurelton Movies......Our First Library Cards at the Queens Public Library Laurelton Branch? Most of us had friends that are like family and the relationships are still going strong all these years later...........
PS 156 - Remember the class trips to Museums, Ferry Rides and The World's Fair? The weekly class punch-ball game! The Friday afternoon free time to make models and listen to records. These things don't happen anymore......But PS 156 made us some great memories. Unfortunately all school pictures are gone a casualty of the move out of Laurelton in 1970's. If anyone has the class pictures from 1965 graduating class, please post them.

Does anyone know anything about the “Gypsy Lady” who always dressed in black (heavy makeup and loads of jewelry) and walked up and down Merrick Road? I remember being with friends and we all stared at her when she passed by. Whenever I watch the movie Sunset Boulevard I have flashbacks of her!

Skip,
Good old Laurelton and Springfield Gardens. I graduated from St. Mary Magdalenes in 1957. When I was 14, I worked in the Laurelton Bagel Bakery. It was before they opened the retail store. The only way to get to it was down the alley behind Wong's Garden on the corner of 225th Street. Carmines Pizza was on the southwest corner of 227th Street, on the same block as the movies. A slice of pizza was 15 cents and a soda was 10 cents. You would get it in a cone shaped paper cup with a metal base.
We tried to save some money in the Ridgewood Savings Bank, on the southwest corner of Merrick Road and Francis Lewis Boulevard. It was always cool inside. You had to be on good behavior because Mr. Gatty, the tall thin security guard would be watching you through those black framed eye glasses. When it was your turn, you would give your green pass book to Mr. Quinn, the cashier. You gave him some money and he would write the amount in the big book and in your pass book. Then stamp it with the ink pad. Besides normal saving accounts, we had special "Christmas Club" accounts, where we would save money all year and take it out in December to buy Christmas presents.
It looks like a number of people walked many of the same streets in good old Laurelton and Springfield Gardens. I grew up at 231-18-129th Ave. It was about four blocks north of Merrick Road, two doors off Francis Lewis Boulevard. Casual Clothes was on the north side of Merrick Road, between FSB and 231st Street. Mr. Silvers candy store was on the north west corner of 225th Street. If it was Saturday, (movie day) back in 1957. I would be heading up FSB, first past the little record store and the barber shop and then past the luncheonette on the corner. First it was called Pollicks, then it was Lil Eds, then Bert and Daves. I would then head west on Merrick Road, past Safrans Kosher Deli, ( checking out the hot dogs permanently being grilled in the window.) Then past Stanleys Toy store on the corner of 230 St. One more block to Woolworths, ( going in one door, past the soda machine, and out the other door. Cross the street and another block.
First stopping at Raabs to meet up with the gang. Also to check and see if anyone had one of those colored flyers the movie gave out. If you matched the color with the one hanging up in the ticket booth, you got in for free. Never in my life did I ever get one. Now to the candy store to get some treats for the show. You never got any in the theater, it was way to expensive. Now past Wedgewood Studio and we are at the itch. The affectionate name for the Laurelton Theater.
Lets see, the theater had a marques that overhung the sidewalk. The ticket booth was on the left. You bought your ticket and went through the glass doors. Up the inclined vestibule to the one open door where they collected the tickets, (usually all the way on the right). Now, on the right were the seats. The first section was the smoking section, then the large middle section and then on to the childrens section. The Matron made you go to the childrens section.
On the left was the soda machine then the candy counter. The Bon Bons and other ice creams were on the left, then the candies and then the popcorn. The popcorn was never fresh popped; it came in large plastic bags that were stored in the room to the left of the screen, in front of the childrens section. Then it was put in the glass box with one light bulb to heat up the popcorn. Ten cents for a bag. To the right of the candy stand was the door to get into the stand, then the water fountain, then the large stairway upstairs.
Upstairs was a long hallway. Nothing on the right side. On the left was first the girls bathroom, then Mr. Bells office, (the manager), then the projection room, with the bright arc lights of the projector and large metal containers the film came in. Walter Nathan was the projectionist. He had two sons, Alan and David. Finally the boys bathroom all the way at the end.
Now if you really wanted a treat, take the Q5 bus into Jamaica and walk down Jamaica Avenue to the Valencia Theater. What a grand place that was, with the suits of armor, ceiling full of clouds and stars and an upstairs balcony. Dont forget the pond full of gold fish. After the movie you walked down to the end of the block, made a right, then a half a block to the bus terminal. If you had any money left, you played a couple of games in the arcade at the terminal. Then outside to catch the Q5 bus that took you back to Laurelton.

I was searching the internet for a vendor in Laurelton and I stumbled across the Laurelton website. I grew up in Laurelton, went to 156 and 231 and then off to Jamaica High School. I went to 156 in the early 80's. Also was in the girl scouts for years at the Good Lutheran. I have recently moved to Bellerose, but one thing has remained consistent my place of worship. You know it as the old Laurelton Theater, but from the age of 8 I have attended this church. It kept me off the streets, and I've learned so much at this ministry. God blessed us last year to renovate the building from the middle of 227th to the end of the block (use to be Gordon's photographers). Would love for you to stop by to see the renovation at our Street Festival, Saturday, July 18th, 12:00-6:00pm (flyers attached).
I'm just a proud member that grew up in this neighborhood and love my church and after I saw all of the reflections down memory lane, just wanted to give you an update.

Sadly, I cannot claim to be a "landsman" from your hometown. I came across your site and was so intrigued by the number of people who took the time to reminisce about growing up in Laurelton that I printed out 23 pages of the individual comments from people.
Reading these items I was impressed by the main theme: the school that all remembered. I suppose the reason this was noted is that I am a retired school principal and some 15 years after leaving the classroom, I still have a lot of the teacher in me. When I read how many remembered their teacher with love and appreciation I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride. Hey, I too am a teacher as if this would let me also reap some of the affection even if only by association.
The mention of Jewish classes brought memories of my going three times a week to our local chader. There was no mentioning of the darn hard work preparing for bar mitzva. One or two mentioned the synagogue and how one is now a church. Here too one of the oldest synagogues was sold to a church group and here too the Mogen David was left in place.
The snarly store keeper had a counterpart here for there were some stores that welcomed the big penny and nickel spenders while other stores were shunned by us.
As a matter of fact I have been assembling a printed record of my growing up in Ottawa which in many respects resembled your town and indeed every town that is remembered how it was 60-70 years ago. Time kindly erases many of the things that at the time they took place, seemed to be very unfair, terrible and never-ending.
I have a wonderful wife; we'll be 53 years married in August. Our daughter is a Family Doctor and she has two daughters who are the pride and joy of their Bubby and Zaideh.
I do have an active hobby that I started only a while back. I collect pins and so if anyone reading this wants to be kind to a Canadian reader of Skip's Web Site, a pin from your city, town or whatever will be terrific ! With best wishes for a continued success in this project' There is a Jewish comment that is applicable here: Yasher Koach!

Skip,
I enjoyed your site very much, it brought back fond memories. We moved to Laurelton in 1953, when I was 7. We first lived in the garden apts. I don't remember the address Then we moved to 130 -?- 223St. I went to St. Mary Magdalene's and graduated in 1960. I remember Mr. Silver's candy store on the corner of 224 or 225 Street, the library where I loved to go into Adult area where I could curl up in a big leather chair and read.
Going to the movies on Saturday and being there for 2 features, cartoons, newsreel and coming attractions. I never heard of it being called the "itch. Their was a great Jewish deli near Francis Lewis Blvd. I remember getting the best Sundae at the soda shop at the corner of Frances Lewis Blvd. and down from there on FLB was a record shop. There also was a clothing store around there called "Casual"
We used to fish in Twin Ponds with bamboo poles and we used worms to fish with. There were always these beautiful gold fish in the ponds, but of course we never caught one. In the winter we would ice skate at Twin Ponds. We too would walk to Green Acres and when I was older we'd go to the Sunrise Drive In.
It was a great place grow up. All the kids on the block, boys and girls, would play punch ball, stick ball, touch football. Having parties in someone's basement. It was great place to grow up.
We moved from Laurelton in 1970 and I always missed living there.

Hi Skip, I lived in Laurelton from 1948 to 1967. I am fascinated with the recent Bernie Madoff story and its Laurelton connection. Does anyone know where Bernie lived and went to school? The only Laureltonites I keep up with now are my siblings and a few woman I went to JHS 59 with. The rest are all wonderful memories. Thanks if you know any info about Madoff. I am just very curious because someone said he lived near my house on 229th street and I don't remember him.Thanks,

Dear Skip
I just discovered your website and boy what memories are there. I was born at Jamacia Hospital (the one that has been torn down) and raised at 131-66 222nd Street. We were the only Chinese family besides the Chang's who owned the House of Chang on Merrick Blvd and also in Valley Stream. Two doors down was a kid named Bobby who was mentally challenged but was great. He would stand next to a great Maple tree all day long watching us. Next door to me were the Kopetski's and upstairs were the Mauceri's. On the other side were the Grace's and across the street were the Anderson's. On the corner were the Lenihan's. Around the corner were the LoMaglio's (Phyllis, Judy and MaryJane). We all grew up together. Some of us went to St. Mary Magdellan's; the others went to public school. Tragedy did strike the Lenihan's as their oldest daughter Mary Ellen was killed hitchhiking to D.C. back in 1969.
I remember getting the mail at the post office for my Dad every day during the summer. Dad and I used to walk past the bagel store and go to the local pizzeria. 25 cents bought you a slice with soda and then we would go next door for a cherry ice. Don't remember the names of these places but do have those nice memories. Woolworth was my favorite store to do some Xmas shopping and Bohack's supermarket was right on the corner of 222nd Street. There was a funeral parlor right across the street from there too as I recall. My dentist was Dr. Desiderio and his son, Mark went to St. Mary Magdellan's with me. Hope some of the old gang reads this. Please email me. Would love to hear from you.

Hello Skip;
I'd like to share my Laurelton Experience
I grew up on 217 and 131st ave, about 1/2 block off Springfield Blvd. My phone number was LA7-7487. I went to St. Mary Madeline Catholic School until they shut their doors in '73. I then went to p.s. 132 but after getting into a few scuffles, my mother had me and my brothers bussed to p.s. 188 in Kingsbury. I then attended JHS 172 then Martin Van Buren in Queens Village where I graduated in '84.
I do recall going to the movie house in Merrick Road many times. My parents would drop us off on Sat afternoon I think so they can spend some time alone. The major feature would be preempted with a Bug Bunny cartoon. I can't remember all the movies but Willard (yuck) and Jaws is what sticks out the most.
I recall Twin Ponds bakery. The candy store on Merrick road where we would get candy necklaces and whistle pops, Keyfood on 225 and Merrick, the bike shop, Ridgewood Savings bank on 229 (I think) where I had my very first, passbook savings account, and Woolworth five and dime are the places I recall the most. I've always loved to walk and made many foot trips to Green Acres, Woolworth's, the movies and friends homes. Today I live in FL and unfortunately the only walking around here is from the front door to the car or for leisure.
A dark moment in Laurelton;
I was wondering if anyone knew an African American paperboy in Laurelton named Ricky, (don't know his last name). He was about 11 or 12 in 1972 when he was hit by a car while riding his bike to deliver papers. He used to hang around my older brothers and of all their friends, was the nicest to me. I was very young and although I really liked him, I didn't know too much about him. I was wondering if anyone here also knew of him or kept in touch with his family. Any information would be great.
Does anyone recall, the O'Leary's (John, Rose, Teresa, Cathleen and Timmy) the Vetirosa's (sp?), (Annette, Diane, Billy), Nepaletano's (Kevin, Frances, Kathleen, Danny, David), Linda Taylor, or the O'Mara's?
It's great walking down memory lane.

HI Skip,
I came to the Laurelton sight just by chance and enjoyed very much reading about the beautiful town. I work in Valley Stream and often pass through Laurelton and Rosedale. My dad, Ray, opened Dairy Mart, at 230-04 Merrick Blvd in December 1952, (LA 8-9557). It was between 230th Street and Francis Lewis Blvd, second store from the corner of 230th. The dairy and appetizing store had the best pickled lox and catering in town. My dad even candled his own eggs in the back room for a long time. There were two great high school students working for him over the years...Marsha and Moose (Ronnie).Those two taught me how to run the register and from time to time I helped out in the store. It was always fun.
Dad and Shep used to buy overstock containers to pack their appetizing in. I remember one time a customer asking for some more of the delicious pineapple ice cream, that turned out to be frozen potato salad.
Dad stayed there for over 10 years and then moved on, but made some everlasting friends. His partner at that time was Sheppy who stayed in the Laurelton location for a while longer until he was held up and robbed. He later closed Dairy Mart to open Sheppy's of Merrick. By the way, the Dairy Mart name was never changed to Sheppy's.
The store next door to Dairy Mart was Utopia Kosher Meats, and there was a Paint store directly next door on the other side, right on the corner, for awhile.
You have my permission to contact me and include this in the Laurelton sight, if interested.

Dear Skip,
Many thanks for your kind words about my memoir. I have been reading all the Laurelton web sites with much pleasure and I think I can add some information to some of the queries about the Laurelton movie theater. I moved to Laurelton in 1931 when I was 10 years old. At that time my parents did not think I was old enough to go to the movies. (How things have changed!) I began to go to Saturday matinees (double feature, cartoons, and a "chapter") when I was 13 (1933-1934) so the date 1932 for the building of the theater may very well be correct. The admission price was ten cents. There was never an organ (only fancy palaces like the Valencia in Jamaica had organs), there was always a "matron" in a white uniform to keep order, there was a small stage behind the screen (my sister Sena vouches for this), and you could stay all day and watch the whole program over again if your mother didn't send somebody to get you out of there!
The Laurelton Theatre was already known to us as "the Itch" and I would like to say something about that. Like many slang terms the origin of this usage
is unknown, so people make up plausible explanations (like the programs were so long you were itching to get out, etc) which then become what language scholars call "folk etymology." I have not been able to find out anything about this usage from any of the sources I presently have available to me. If someone does know of a slang dictionary or a book of English usage that has some information I would be really happy to know of it (English is my
hobby, as you have probably already figured out).
Laurelton was not the only theatre to be known by that name. It was part of a chain of small neighborhood theaters in Queens and Nassau County, some of whom were also known as "the Itch." I was once visiting a small town in upstate New York and heard someone refer to their neighborhood theater as
"the Itch," so apparently it is (or was) a slang term for any small neighborhood theater, used to distinguish it from any large, expensive movie palace.
And now for the good stuff! The OWNERS of the Laurelton Theatre and the chain of which it was a part LIVED IN LAURELTON. They were two families
named Kerner and Baker; I believe they were brothers-in-law. I did not know them personally, but I did know their three handsome sons, Marvin and Arnold Kerner and Stewart (Stewie) Baker, who were local heart throbs not only because of their good looks but because of the ineffable glamour of their
"Hollywood" connection and also because if you were good friends of theirs they could get you into "the Itch" for free! Sadly, that never happened to
me.

Thank you so much for the Laurelton page! I went to P.S. 156 from 1962-1965 for the 4,5 and 6th grades. I've happily reconnected with one classmate
and would welcome hearing from others who had Mrs. Schwartz, Miss Trustey and Mrs. Parver.

Hello Skip,
This is truly a wonderful website. Thank you Skip. My memories of Laurelton (156 class of '63?) include many of those already mentioned. I lived a few houses behind Stanley's (230th and 133rd) and remember well the store, "Stanley" and the fire.
In perusing the memories already posted I did not find any about "Twin Ponds." I remember going with my friends "fishing" at Twin Ponds - a ridiculous notion since no fish could possibly live in these fetid waters. However that did not stop us. We took crude fishing poles (bamboo sticks with some string and a wire hook) but did not use bait since there was nothing to catch. We sat and waited for what I do not know. Eventually we "caught" up some weeds from the bottom of the pond, called it a great catch and walked home.
Also, no one ever mentioned Schultzie's candy store on 228th and Merrick or the candy/malt shop at Francis Lewis and Merrick. Was that Dave and somethings? Burt and Dave's maybe? Help me someone!
I have a fifth grade class picture circa 1961 of Ms Miller's class at 156. I will dig it out and submit it to you for inclusion on the site.
Keep up the great work.

Hello Skip,
My name is Larry Schwarz and I live in South Jordan, Utah( a bedroom suburb of salt lake city) I just discovered the Laurelton website. I lived in Laurelton as a very young boy from birth in 1952 to fall 1958. We lived at 130-28 229th street. I have very fond memories of those years. The house we lived in was actually owned by my grandmother. As my grandmother was getting ill in the late 1950s she sold the house as she needed the money for her care. My parents wanted a house of their own so we moved to North Woodmere.
I remember Woolworths, Raabs lunchonette, The jewish deli, Schultzes candy store, Marders pharmacy, Teddys lunchonette. Many memories. My grandmother was Elizabeth Urdang, and my parents were Charles and Geraldine Schwarz. I don't know if these names ring a bell. On a recent trip to New York I rented a car and drove down 229th street. Laurelton is still a very well kept up neighborhood.
I would like to help, share my memories with others. If there is a reunion I would try to fly in for it. I also remember a little ice cream stand at the corner of Merrick rd and the cross Island. I think it was actually in Rosedale. My father took my brother and I there for ice cream often. It was loud as it was right under the landing approach to Idewild ( now known as jfk).
Please let me know if I can do anything. Finding that website, what a pleasant stroll down memory lane. By the way, is it possible somehow to go into the house at 130-28 229th street ( with current owners permission of course) I would love to see the house again. I have very vivid memories still and even after all these years could describe the layout of the house. Best Regards,

Dear Skip,
If you ever decide to have a contest for the oldest memoirs I am probably in danger of winning it. My name is Annette Henkin Landau. I moved to Laurelton in 1931 when I was 10 years old. (All you geniuses from PS 156 can do the arithmetic yourselves.) I lived at 226-31 Mentone Ave. with my parents (Ben and Bess Henkin) and my siblings, Howard and Sena (now Blatman). Our cousins, the Goldbergs (Lenore, Irwin, Joel) lived next door. Our houses were (and still are) attached to each other but not to anyone else. We all went to PS 156. I remember the Principal, Mr.Joseph Baron, Mrs.Hedderman, Mrs. McArthur, Mrs. Weinberger, Mrs.David, Ms.Vaillant, Ms. Mulhall, Ms. Merriam, & the Domestic Science teacher, Ms.McKay. I graduated in 1933, went to Jamaica H.S. (Andrew Jackson did not yet exist), and graduated in the first graduating class of Queens College in 1941. I grew up to be an English teacher, a librarian, a sometimes published writer, and a mother of three.
I married Philip Landau in 1942. He lived at 227-04 138th Ave., went to Far Rockaway High School and NYU. He died in 1987 after having famously managed he Sherry-Netherland Hotel in Manhattan for 35 years.
Some time in the 1980's New York magazine ran a contest about growing up in New York neighborhoods. I submitted an article called "Growing Up American: Laurelton in the 1930's." It got an honorable mention. I always thought I had had a magical childhood in Laurelton (I am so pleased that so many other Laureltonians did too), and I still like the article, so I am attaching it
to this letter in hopes that you won't think it too long for the Laurelton website. (It runs about 6 pages, but it does concern material that seems not to have appeared before.)
I moved to California a few months ago and would be happy to hear from Laureltonians past, present, and future.

Hi Skip,
I am a Laurelton girl from the 50s. Actually my parents moved to Laurelton in1946 when I was one year old. I have a younger sister named Andrea. We lived at 130-12 220th street. Our phone no. was LA 5-3331. We went to PS132. Lots of kids went to 132 from Laurelton. But we were from the edge of Laurelton, not the middle like most of the other bloggers. I remember Mrs. Flinker the principal. My teachers were Mrs. Shapiro, Mrs. Fleck, Mrs. Barruco, Mrs. Powell, Mrs. Donahue and Mrs. Hart who shared my fourth grade year because Mrs. Donahue went on a lengthy well earned vacation. My favorite of all was Mrs. Ganz, my fifth grade teacher. She must be a bright light on the other side of the veil because she loved us all so much.
My class was the first to ever go to JHS 59 as seventh graders. We spent the first quarter of that school year at PS 132 and then we were moved into the brand new school. Does anyone remember Mr. Haber? He was the girls' heartthrob. I also loved Mr. Austern, Mrs. Hughes and Mr. Ross who was energetic and funny and made history come alive. My mom sent me to The Mary Louis Academy after 59 because she was afraid that I was too shy for Andrew Jackson.
Okay so here were the Merrick Rd. stores from my end of Laurelton. We had Bob's delicatessen with the best potato salad I ever ate. Our pharmacy was Nemo's which had a cubbyhole in it where your taxes could be paid. We had a little bitty Bohack, a butcher in a separate building, a Chinese laundry and a candy store where we bought birthday presents and our school supplies.
Someone said there was no Catholic church in Laurelton. On our end, we went to St. Mary Magdalene. Was that not considered Laurelton? That's where we made our communion and were confirmed. Indeed, most of my classmates were Jewish so on the Jewish holidays, there were only three or four kids in each classroom. Shortly after, the Jewish fall holidays were made into school holidays which made a lot of sense.
My friends on our end were Linda and Sheila Heifetz, Patricia and Anna Mary Mechella, Geraldine Hertzberg, Lynn and Barbara Hochman, Kenneth Messina and Cynthia Brody. I knew Steven Taub and his sister Linda but they moved in the second wave. The Girardi boys were Charlie and Freddy. Carol Ann Smiley and her brother Johnny lived nearby. Diane DiPaolo and her big sister Marie Ann lived across the street.
Funny how I can remember things from long ago but I can't remember where my glasses are today. Blessings and good luck to all the wonderful people of Laurelton. I live in Las Cruces, New Mexico now, where the streets have names, not numbers, and the kids never go outside to play.

Born in 1976, Kevin lost his father at a very young age. Eventually Clint Buchanan married Viki and adopted all her children and raised them as his own. Although Kevin's first relationship was with the niece of mob boss Carlo Hesser, his first love was with Lee Ann Demerest. Together they had a child, Duke, but found that their young love couldn't survive. LeeAnn took Kevin's son and moved to Texas.
College years weren't kind to Kevin. While dating the daughter of District Attorney Hank Gannon, Kevin was accused of raping Marty Saybrooke. Although, Marty finally admitted that Kevin didn't take part in Todd Manning's gang rape, his relationship with Rachel dwindled.
Wanting to follow in his parent's footsteps, Kevin became a reporter and took off to London on his first big assignment in 1995. Upon his return to Llanview, Kevin became an investigative reporter and soon found himself competing with rival Cassie Carpenter. Although Cassie was married to Andrew Carpenter at the time, the two couldn't fight the passion brewing between them and made love! Cassie soon left her husband and she and Kevin married. Developing into quite the ladies man, not knowing she was a crazed woman, Kevin had an affair with nurse Barbara Graham! After Cassie found out, Barbara almost killed her causing Cassie to go insane. Her mother Dorian Lord had their marriage annulled, shipped Cassie to a hospital in Switzerland and has hated Kevin ever since!
Just when Kevin fell in love with a beautiful woman named Grace, she became the victim of a drowning accident leaving Kevin to grieve another loss. Having been the best friend of Kelly Cramer, Kevin and Kelly found comfort in each other, which ultimately made Kelly's ex-boyfriend, Kevin's brother, Joey jealous and running right back into Kelly's arms!
During a drunken night in 1999, Kelly and Kevin almost made love, but thought it was best not to tell Joey. Although Kelly and Joey married, Kevin couldn't fight his feelings for Kelly. With Kelly feeling the same, she ended her marriage to Kevin's brother to engage in a relationship with Kevin. Having hurt Joey badly, he moved to London, and Kelly and Kevin soon moved to Texas to be closer to Kevin's son Duke.
In 2003, when Kevin returned to Llanview 'before' Kelly, it became known that their marriage had been in trouble and Kevin spilled the beans that Kelly had had an affair in Texas. Just as Kevin was about to divorce her, Kelly got pregnant. Although told that she could die if she gave birth, Kelly risked her life to have Kevin's baby. Little did Kevin know, Kelly had lost their baby at a hospital outside of Llanview, and sought the help of her brother Paul Cramer who miraculously found her another baby to pass off as Kevin's!
Kelly brought the baby home and presented Kevin with a son. It wasn't until their marriage ended and Kevin won custody of the boy that Kelly realized the baby needed his real mother. Pine Valley's Babe Chandler! Although it broke his heart, Kevin accepted the truth and gave the baby back.
Though Kevin and Kelly continued on and off to maintain an unhealthy relationship, their biggest challenge yet would come when Kelly slept with Kevin's son Duke in the heat of the moment after Kevin viciously told her they were over! Duke ended up dying in a tornado and Kelly ended up pregnant with Duke's baby! It took Kevin a longtime to accept this but eventually realized that he wanted to help Kelly raise baby Zane as his own.
With all the bad memories of the past lingering in Llanview, Kelly and Kevin moved to London in November 2006 to make a fresh start!
In August 2007, Kevin return to Llanview for Asa's funeral then headed back to London, where Bo and Nora visited him, along with Matthew who they tricked into going, in October 2009 while trying to prevent Matthew from having a life-threatening surgery.
Kevin returned to Llanview briefly for his father's wedding to Kim. His sister Natalie later visited him in London to vent about her issues with Marty and John. Kelly arrived next, and Kevin gave her advice about her lingering feelings for Joey.

The Carpenters
Here it is! An extensive OLTL family tree that dates back to day one! With more than 30 years of history behind the show, the family ties are extremely tangled, as you'll see. Hopefully, this in-depth document will help sort it out. In the meantime, there are almost certainly some oversights. If you notice any errors or omissions, feel free to send me mail and tell me. The family tree has been updated and improved! It will also be easier to update as the tree branches out over time. To use the tree, simply follow the numbers that appear in parentheses beside characters' names. If you are looking for a specific character, check the index at the bottom of this document. Enjoy!
Thanks to Joey Argetti for filling in some longtime blanks!

SHIRLEY SERCHUK
The family of Shirley Serchuk announces with profound sadness her passing on May 11th, 2022. Meme was born to Joseph Stark and Rella Herman Stark in Brooklyn, NY, was their youngest child, and last of her generation. Predeceased by her husband Hyman Serchuk, her parents and siblings Libby & Sol and her precious son, Robert Jonathan Morris. She is survived by her daughters, Andrea Ribner (Michael Landau) and Cindy Morris, her stepsons, Peter Serchuk (Michele), Steve Serchuk (Nancy), and Fred Serchuk (Sandra). Her grandchildren, Jordan, Jennifer, Jessica (Ryan), Joni (Brian), Erica, and Robbi (Matt), Justin (Jess), AJ (Cailey). Big Meme leaves behind her pride and joy, her great-grandchildren Tatashaints, Mamashaints, and Tatie, from whom she schlepped much nachas. Also, nieces, nephews, and many, many friends who are family. Services were reluctantly but respectfully held at Gutterman’s Memorial Chapel followed by burial at Wellwood Cemetery.
She was our best friend, confidante, senior advisor, maven, and CEO. Shirley was always wise and loving, loving, loving. Mom was our sun and we were her planets. Our universe is forever broken. Her constant guidance led us and many friends and family to make what would become fateful decisions at life’s crossroads, twists and turns.
A Life Recipe from Shirley’s Kitchen: Ingredients:
An ounce of Pleasure
• An ounce of Love
• An ounce of Contentment • An ounce of Happiness
• An ounce of Family
Instructions:
Never wait to say I love you, I love you, I love you
Always ask: How are you? How is your family? How is business?
See the world with your glass always full. Not half empty or half full.
Stay positive throughout life’s challenges.
Mom highly recommends you try it.
Had you met Mom in the lobby of the Empire State Building, when she was employed on the 78th floor, by Floor 35 she would have known your life story, been your new best friend, and given you her strong (unsolicited) advice on how to resolve your problems. She advised all to “Never put the bar too low. Always reach extra high for your life’s goals.” Mom always made friends with everyone and loved them regardless of their status in life.
As an avid bookworm, she loved reading all the best sellers from the New York Times on her Kindle, and downloaded hundreds of books. She loved all things antique, including clocks, depression glass, and all manner of dishes, serving platters, silverware and barware in order to serve 45 persons per day holidays. (This included all two-day Jewish holidays; Mom was capable of shopping, cooking, preparing and serving up to 90 people.).
Our parents and grandparents were founding members of the Ozone Park Jewish Center, and Mom has been a continuous member for more than 75 years. She was extremely proud of her Jewish heritage and supported many Jewish philanthropic organizations and the Cystic Fibrosis (65 Roses) Foundation.
Meme could make any dish from a rock. It could be chicken, meat or fish and she cooked it into something delicious, and delectable. Well known for her matzo ball soup with sinkers, (just kidding, Ma!—they were always floaters!), and her homemade gefilte fish, fresh caught from Lake Superior, chopped liver and brisket. Mom had an incredible palate and the ability to taste anything then go home and duplicate the recipe.
During the 2020 COVID pandemic, Mom had to endure strict lockdown procedures. We were unable to see her in person, hug or kiss her, but Mom adapted and used modern technology to avoid isolation and separation from us. She learned to FaceTime, and meet on her iPhone. She joined the Facebook Yiddish Group and added her interpretations, meanings and idioms to the chat. Her responses were hilarious and spot on accurate. Mom never got COVID, however she broke her right hip during the lockdown. Please advocate for the best healthcare for your older loved ones whenever necessary.
We felt lucky to have celebrated her 95th birthday party, with 40 of her closest friends and family. We played games, distributed “Famous Facts about Shirley” questions, generally teased and roasted Mom to uproarious laughter. And sang, what was to be her last, “Happy Birthday, Dear Shirley.” We are very sad that the Save the Date Poster we wrote: Coming Soon: Shirley’s 96th Birthday: March 23, 2023 will not be celebrated with a party in her honor.
Meme had a presence in all of our lives, including her nieces and nephews, Fredy Selss (Fred), Randy Brooks (Bonnie), Jon Brooks, Ronni Greenberg (Bruce), Jane Berger (Stu) and their children and grandchildren, and her adored cousins, Harold Goodman (Fern), Robin Ingram (Steve), and their families.
Meme will be forever missed. To all who knew her, we’re sure she made you smile and laugh.
Our family would like to thank Mom’s wonderful caregivers throughout her years. Mom always appreciated their kindness and attentiveness. And always said “Thank you.”
As gracious, generous and giving as she was in life, she was blessed to have
the words of the Shema on her lips, as she passed away. Her last word in this world was “amen”. She passed away while holding both her daughter’s hands. She will always be our “conduit” to eternity, never to break the electricity we held between and within us.
In honor and memory of our dear Hawaiian Girl, we feel very blessed to answer and all say, amen.
Donations can be made in memory of our beloved mother, grandmother and great-grandmother to:
Window Fund, Ozone Park Jewish Center, 107-01 Crossbay Boulevard Ozone Park, New York, 11417.
Our synagogue thanks you, as a once thriving congregation it has shrunk due to changing demographics. A break-in last year caused major damage, and dry rot was discovered around the stained glass windows of the sanctuary. Fortunately, our Grandmother Rella’s window suffered no direct damage. We have taken on this mission to fund the repairs, in honor and memory of our Dear Mother.
Our family continues to lovingly support our synagogue with our membership, in honor of our multigenerational heritage and history. Three generations of names of our beloved family adorn the sanctuary, the lob- by and other places of honor in the building that our family’s blood, sweat and tears assisted in erecting about 75 years ago.
Our family thanks you in advance for your thoughtfulness and generosity.
Finally, we will miss our “Shirleyisms” that our family has joyfully heard and cherished all through the years: “I love you. I love you. I love you.” “You are my heart of hearts.” “Are you hungry?” “Did ya help?”
Of great comfort to us, is the feeling that Mom is reunited with our Brother Robert, her parents, siblings and husband, and all whom she dearly loved.
We thank all who predeceased her for their “patience” while waiting for Mom.
We will selfishly miss her.

All The Tropes

One Life to Live is a daytime Soap Opera that premiered on ABC in 1968.
The series originally focused on the wealthy Lord family and the blue-collar Riley family of Llanview, Pennsylvania. Heiress Victoria Lord (played by Erika Slezak since 1971) became the centerpiece of the show, later marrying into the Buchanan family, which has served as the series' core ever since. Over the years, Viki has suffered breast cancer, heart disease, a stroke, being shot, and most famously, Dissociative Identity Disorder.
The late 1980s brought a series of outlandish storylines. Viki's near-death experience took her to heaven, depicted as a spaceship inhabited by her departed relations. In 1988, Clint Buchanan fell off a horse and was transported to 1888, where he met his own ancestors, all lookalikes of his 1988 family. Most infamously, in 1989, several characters became trapped in Eterna, a secret city inside a mountain. In 2008, to celebrate the show's 40th anniversary, they 'revisited' two of these storylines. Viki again suffered a near-death experience, but this time Heaven was more like an office building, where she was taken by elevator to be briefly reunited with friends and loved ones. Show creator Agnes Nixon also made an appearance during this segment. In addition, Bo Buchanan (Clint's younger brother) and his nephew Rex Balsom were struck by lightning and transported back in time to 1968's Texas, where everyone believed that Bo was actually his father Asa and that Rex was actually Bo.
In the early 90s, OLTL returned to more socially-conscious storytelling. One story told of a gay teen who confronted homophobia in Llanview. Another featured Marty's brutal gang rape at a fraternity party. This story introduced OLTL's most controversial character, Todd Manning, who led the gang rape. Much like Luke Spencer on General Hospital, the character was kept on the show due to female fans' attraction to him. Todd was discovered to be a long-lost Lord heir, and became a central character, driving away many viewers.
Created by Agnes Nixon, OLTL shared its universe with Nixon's other soap, All My Children, and has had many crossovers with same, most recently a baby-switch story in 2004. One Life to Live aired its last episode on January 13, 2012, and the characters of John McBain and the Mannings migrated to General Hospital.
Tropes used in One Life to Live include:
AB Negative: Tina and CJ, among others.
Absurdly Youthful Mother: Greg has to be at least in his early 40s to have been a practicing neurosurgeon for as long as he's explicitly stated to have been. The actress playing his mother is in her mid/late 40s. And he has a 15 year old sister, who's actually Greg's daughter.
Armored Closet Gay: Daniel Colson.
The Baby Trap: Stacy to Rex.
Big Fancy House: The Buchanan mansion, Llanfair and La Boulaie.
Big Screwed-Up Family: Several. But notably the Lords, the Cramers and the Buchanans.
Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: The main character Viki's dad, Victor Lord. Originally seen as simply a domineering and Overprotective Dad during his original run on the show, it was revealed in the 1990s, presumably after his death, that he was a pedophile who molested Viki as a child. He briefly was revealed to have had his death faked in the early 2000s with Mitch Laurence's assistance, before dying again, during which we got to see the real Victor Lord in all of his ugly True Colors.
Bound and Gagged: Hardly uncommon on any soap, but a notable example came in 2003 with Mitch's kidnapping of Blair, who is next seen tied up in her underwear while Mitch calls her husband. She spends a good part of the following episode tied up and blindfolded.
The Cast Showoff: Several actors on One Life to Live. For instance, the original actor who played Jessica, Erin Torpey, has a nice singing voice, so they had Jessica in a band at one point, and also had her sing on a few other occasions. Evangeline Williamson got to sing a lot in the show, because her actress Renee Goldsbury is a real life singer/song writer, and was on a Broadway musical. And Blair Cramer, is also shown singing on a number of occasions, because Kassie De Paiva is a singer and has albums out.
Cliff Hanger: Victor Lord, Jr. is still alive and is somehow being held by Allison Perkins.
Convenient Coma: Evangeline Wiliamson. Went into a coma for three years after being exposed to a gas leak. She soon went off life support.
Crossover: Mostly with All My Children, but with other ABC soaps as well.
Damsel in Distress: Natalie used to often suffer from this back in the day, to be saved by John. This has not happened so much recently, however.
Downer Ending: Bobby Ford and Cole Thornhart are fighting to get out of Heaven to be with their loved ones, Bobby does the chivalrous thing and lets go on to other side. But as soon as Cole and Starr arrive in Port Charles, they get in a car accident and Cole and Hope are killed.
Dynamic Entry: Shaun comes to save Starr, Hope, and Todd from drug dealers. This is also a Crowning Moment of Awesome.
Except the actor who plays Shaun sucks and his delivery of the line was more like "I'm Shaun" which didn't sound right and wasn't as cool.
Another example occurred when Sam burst into a hotel room where Echo had been holding Dorian hostage, in a Spider Man costume, and taking Echo down with toy web shooters. Did we mention the kid is seven?
Earn Your Happy Ending: In 2001, Jessica Buchanan's life got flipped turned upside down. First, Allison claims she returned the wrong baby after baby Jessica (Natalie) was kidnapped. Then it's revealed Jessica and Natalie are half twins when it was discovered her father was Mitch Laurence and not Clint Buchanan. Then after developing DID to repress childhood sexual abuse, her alter falls in love with a man and gets pregnant by him, just as she comes around to loving the guy... he dies in a freak accident. That freak accident was caused by her aforementioned twin sister's deception. She lapses into her DID again and imprisons her sister, and she's pregnant again. Unfortunately this baby doesn't survive, so ANOTHER alter steals her teen cousin's baby. Eventually, the ruse is lifted and she loses another child. She gets institutionalized (a recurring theme) and finds love with another crazy. Mitch escapes and fucks that up by erasing her mind to when she was a teenager. Her new beau can't cope and thus sleeps with said twin sister. She comes back though... mid coitus with the town pervert who impregnates her. Despite this she attempts marry him, until the ugly truth comes out. You guessed it, DID time. She hooks up with the town pervert and begins to like him, but Jessica takes over again and it's square 1. Just as Jessica and the town pervert begin to fall in love, Mitch returns and kills HIM, somehow a DNA test is found and it's revealed that Clint's her biological father all along. Did I mention she lost a kid before all this too?
Evil Old Folks: Victor Lord was one very vicious old man. Also, Echo Disavoy.
Flashback with the Other Darrin: Lampshaded when during ex-husband Asa's "funeral" Blair (played by a Caucasian actress) flashbacked to her own wedding to Asa... which occurred when Blair was being played by an Asian American actress. Cue the confused look into the make-up compact.
Hannibal Lecture: Mitch is the master of this. Everything he does is passive-aggressive, which makes him all the scarier.
Hurricane of Puns: Justin greeted Matthew's return to school with a hurricane of Incredibly Lame Puns (including one on the figurative and literal meanings of the word "lame"); think Ignore the Disability done deliberately.

At BravoCon 2023, fans wanting an update on The Real Housewives of New Jersey got their fix during a November 5 panel discussion called "In a Jersey State of Mind." Held at Caesar's Forum in Las Vegas, the sitdown featured Michael Rappaport as a moderator. Rappaport had a question for Jennifer Aydin that hit close to home: "How's the pool house doing?" he asked.
To back up a bit, during Season 9 of RHONJ, Dr. Bill Aydin’s time in the pool house became a hot topic. More recently, in Season 13, Jennifer shared why it upsets her that her husband so often hangs out there. “This is the thing: You come home, you go straight to the pool house,” Jennifer said to Bill during a session with a psychologist. “You go in there, and you stay in there until three hours, and you come in once we’re all done finished eating dinner. That irritates me. When I see his car in the camera, I’m like, ‘Uh, what about a hello?’”
On Part 2 of The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 13 reunion, Jennifer shared Bill’s perspective on the issue. “He explained the pool house to me,” she told host Andy Cohen. “He said, ‘Look, Jen, I’m all day with patients. I’m on, on, on. When I walk into the house, I know there’s you, there’s a nanny, there’s your dad, there [are] four kids, now there’s a dog. I need to unwind a little bit.’”

So, how are things in the pool house today? Back at BravoCon 2023, Jennifer said: "A lot's going on in the pool house, but let's keep it PG." She went on to say that she and Bill hang out in the pool house together these days. "I take it over from him most of the time," she says. "He comes in there, he finds me in there ... It's our little getaway."
Jennifer Aydin shares the latest on her marriage with Bill Aydin
When Rappaport asked how difficult it was for the couple to deal with difficulties in their marriage publicly, Jennifer shared: "For me, going through it publicly was OK because I got to show everybody that marriages can survive when you have lived through something that can traumatize you. It's all about forgiveness and seeing the bigger picture."
She continued: "What was hard for me was that ... I wasn't able to control my emotions while we were filming and I was breaking down a lot as you guys saw. One of the reasons I decided to share my story is that there's power in a story."
She added that she received tons of messages from fans who could relate to her situation.
After Bill admitted to having had an affair, Jennifer said: "I trust him 100 percent, so it's not about trust. It's about building the trust back."

The Royal Palace of Mendorra (2008)
One Life to Live locationCreated byAgnes NixonGenreSoap operaTypePrincipalityNotable locationsRoyal Palace
Hohenstein FallsNotable charactersHohenstein royal family
Mendorra is a fictional European monarchy from the American soap opera One Life to Live. The principality is supposedly located near Germany.
Production[edit]
In 1990, the series filmed locations in Austria that served as Mendorra, in "one of the last great location shoots in One Life to Live history".[1] The wedding of Bo Buchanan (Robert S. Woods) and Sarah Gordon (Jensen Buchanan) was filmed in the same church used in The Sound of Music.[1]
The Middle Falls at Letchworth State Park in Rochester, New York were used as the fictional Hohenstein Falls of Mendorra in 2008.[2][3] The 2008 storyline includes a redo of the "famous" and "unforgettable" 1980s plotline in which Tina Lord (Andrea Evans) survives a plunge over the Iguazú Falls in Argentina.[3][4]
1986–1990[edit]
United States Ambassador to Mendorra Charles Sanders (Peter Brown) arrives in fictional Llanview, Pennsylvania in 1986. In 1987 he romances Dorian Lord (Robin Strasser) seeking access to her money. Discovering the ruse, a vindictive Dorian reveals Charles' past affair with a member of Mendorra's royal family. Charles is removed as Ambassador; distraught to discover that her daughter Cassie (Holly Gagnier) is having an affair with Dorian's boyfriend Jon Russell (John Martin), Dorian secures the post for herself, and leaves Llanview for Mendorra.[5] Geoffrey McGrath (Don Fischer) is soon revealed to be Charles' son, the product of his royal affair.
In 1989, Tina Lord (Andrea Evans) is nearly killed in Atlantic City seeking to get her hands on the stolen Crown Jewels of Mendorra when she faces many past enemies that abduct her and plan to execute her in an electric chair.[1][6]
Tina's niece Megan Gordon is saved from a fire by her new boyfriend Raymond Hohenstein (Robert Westenberg) in 1989 following an explosion; seriously injured, Raymond admits that he is the Crown Prince of Mendorra. When Raymond loses his eyesight, Megan travels to Mendorra with her physical therapist sister Sarah (Jensen Buchanan) to aid him in 1990. Dorian (Elaine Princi) and Cassie (Ava Haddad) appear just as the sinister intentions of Raymond's younger brother Roland Hohenstein (Joseph Kolinski) are revealed. Hoping to secure the throne for himself, Roland first tries to use Raymond's blindness to replace him as heir; when that does not work, he kidnaps Megan and Sarah. Knowing Raymond cannot ascend the throne should he marry a commoner, Roland vows to kill Megan unless Raymond weds Sarah. Sarah's boyfriend Bo Buchanan (Robert S. Woods) and his nephew Cord Roberts (John Loprieno) infiltrate the place with the help of Dorian, Cassie and Debra Medina (Lucinda Fisher), a dancer in the Mendorran Ballet. Bo manages to switch places with Raymond, and in this disguise marries Sarah himself. Bo, Raymond, Megan and Sarah—Raymond with his sight restored and Sarah still in her wedding dress—all don skis and escape down the mountainside. Roland catches up to them, and in a final confrontation is killed by Raymond in self-defense.[1][7]
2008[edit]
The Crown Jewels of Mendorra are stolen in May 2008 upon their arrival in Llanview for display,[8] and Tina reappears in town on June 11, 2008 as the Crown Princess of Mendorra.[9][10][11] She acquires the jewels which she had arranged to have stolen, but is soon on the run with them from the sinister U.S. Ambassador to Mendorra Jonas Chamberlain (Kevin Spirtas), who apparently wants them for himself.[12][13] Tina finds refuge with her estranged daughter Sarah Roberts (Justis Bolding) and Sarah's boyfriend Cristian Vega (David Fumero),[14][15] but Sarah's roommate, Llanview police officer Talia Sahid (BethAnn Bonner), inexplicably aids Jonas in kidnapping Sarah.[16] Tina, Cristian and his brother Antonio Vega (Kamar de los Reyes)—a Llanview Police Detective and Talia's lover—agree to accompany Jonas back to Mendorra in order to make an exchange: the women for the Crown Jewels.[17]
In Mendorra, Tina gets the royal treatment from her palace staff and is reunited with her husband, Crown Prince Helmut Krakoff, really her longtime cohort, con man Cain Rogan (Christopher Cousins), in yet another disguise. He has been accepted as the Crown Prince even though he cannot seem to prove a relationship to any member of the royal family. Meanwhile, the real mastermind behind the kidnappings reveals himself to his daughter Talia: villain Carlo Hesser (Thom Christopher).[18] Talia despises Carlo, a longtime enemy of both Tina and the Vega brothers; Cain is anxious to keep the jewels they have worked so hard for, but Tina is desperate to exchange them for Sarah.[19]
Carlo, bent on revenge for Tina's part in the death of his son Johnny Dee (Anthony Crivello) in 1990,[20] exposes Tina and Cain's fraud publicly and reveals Jonas as the true heir to the throne;[21] he adds that, per Mendorran law, Cain and Tina will be beheaded for their treason.[22] Carlo and his minions first drag Tina, Sarah and Cristian to the river above the treacherous Hohenstein Falls. Tina is horrified as Carlo reveals his intent to send Sarah over the Falls to her death, deliberately echoing Tina's own nearly-fatal plunge over the Iguazu Falls in 1987.[23] Cristian manages to escape Carlo's guards and swim to Sarah's raft; Tina watches history repeat itself as Sarah and Cristian go over the Falls on July 22, 2008.[4][24]
Carlo intends to marry Talia to Jonas, the new ruler of Mendorra; she protests and stalls, but goes through with the royal wedding on July 31, 2008 to save Antonio and her friends from harm—not knowing that Jonas has already stabbed Antonio and left him for dead.[25][26] The Vega brothers turn up alive,[26] Cristian saving Tina and Cain from the executioner's axe and Antonio overpowering Jonas and leading a newly married Talia to safety. When Carlo, Jonas and their men catch up, Talia brokers a deal with Carlo: she will stay if the others are allowed to leave. A presumed-dead Sarah reappears, and with several people's lives at stake, a furious Antonio is forced to leave Talia behind.[27][28] The rest of the group escapes, but duplicitous Cain later parachutes from the plane with the Crown Jewels, not knowing that Tina has already switched the gems with fakes.[29]

Synopsis
“Almost everything about this world remains to be discovered,” Lahl said. “Until someone is willing to pursue the matter vigorously, the few scraps of information I’m carrying will mean very little.”
Rakesh was beginning to feel as if he was being prodded awake from a stupefying dream that had gone on so long he’d stopped believing it could ever end. He’d come to this node, this cross-roads, in the hope of encountering exactly this kind of traveller, but in ninety-six years he’d learnt nothing from the people passing through that he could not have heard on his home world. He’d made friends among the other node-dawdlers, and they passed the time together pleasantly enough, but his old, naive fantasy of colliding with a stranger bearing a surfeit of mysteries — a weary explorer announcing, “I’ve seen enough for one lifetime, but here, take this crumb from my pocket” — had been buried long ago.
A million years from now, the galaxy is divided between the vast, cooperative meta-civilisation known as the Amalgam, and the silent occupiers of the galactic core known as the Aloof. The Aloof have long rejected all attempts by the Amalgam to enter their territory, but have permitted travellers to take a perilous ride as unencrypted data in their communications network, providing a short-cut across the galaxy’s central bulge. When Rakesh encounters a traveller, Lahl, who claims she was woken by the Aloof on such a journey and shown a meteor full of traces of DNA, he accepts her challenge to try to find the uncharted world deep in the Aloof’s territory from which the meteor originated.
Roi and Zak live inside the Splinter, a translucent world of rock that swims in a sea of light they call the Incandescence. Living on the margins of a rigidly organised society, they seek to decipher the subtle clues that can reveal the true nature of the Splinter. In fact, their world is in danger, and as the evidence accumulates Roi, Zak, and a growing band of recruits struggle to understand and take control of their fate.
Meanwhile, Rakesh and his travelling companion Parantham gradually uncover the history of the lost DNA world, a search which ultimately leads them to startling revelations that encompass both the Splinter, and the true nature and motives of the Aloof.

The time has finally come.
I have finally finished Greg Egan’s Orthogonal trilogy.
There really ought to be a fanfare for such an announcement.
The other books: Clockwork Rocket and Eternal Flame. Spoilers for these two naturally follow.
At the start of his one, Egan himself has written that you just won’t really get this book without the previous two. I don’t think I’ve ever come across the third book in a trilogy that said that so bluntly, and I really appreciate it. Because it is SO true: if you don’t understand how light and time work in this universe (and look, I don’t understand it, but I get how it’s different from ours), let alone the society and what the folks are doing on this mountain-turned-spaceship, you will be so lost you’ll end up in Antarctica instead of Bali.
As the second book was a few generations after the third, so here. The ship is sailing happily through the universe, and folks are still working on how to save the homeworld. Not that everyone especially wants to save the homeworld, from which they are now several generations distant – and will never see themselves anyway. So, classic generation ship angst, really. That’s one issue. Then, there’s what turns out to be a logical consequence of the bizarre universe Egan has set up where light travels at different speeds and some parts are orthogonal to others: that time is affected, too. Specifically, that it should be possible to set a receiver for messages from the future.
Because that couldn’t possibly turn out badly.
So now there are two issues dividing the crew of the Peerless. And just to add to the problems, while the earlier issue about children has been solved – the females no longer need to either die to become their children, or starve to prevent that from happening, and they’re not overpopulating – there are some people who aren’t happy with the solution: especially some brothers who don’t want to be compelled to care for their sister’s children. So life is definitely not rainbows (which they’ve never seen) and roses (which they don’t grow).
I love that Egan tackles such weighty topics as democracy, needs of the few vs needs of the many, the importance of choice, the place of parenthood, and so on – all in a book that literally has vector diagrams in it as it explores the outcomes of a thought experiment in physics.
From a narrative point of view, the most gripping part is when four people travel to an orthogonal world to see whether it would be habitable. Again, this is an exploration of the consequences of ‘orthogonality’; time is literally going in the opposite for this world from how it is experienced by the travellers, so what could that possibly look like? What does that, what can that, mean for free will? (A whole bunch of headaches is the answer. Mostly metaphorically.) This bit is also a deeper exploration of the characters, as they interact only with each other, in very trying circumstances.
As with the other two books, I admit that I skimmed bits of the physics explanations. Including the diagrams. I read it well enough to get the point Egan is making, but I would in no way attempt to explain it.
I have a couple of thoughts that are spoilers, so don’t read the rest if that’s a problem… but if you’ve read the first two, I think you definitely need to see how the story plays out.
Continue reading →
Another in my long slog towards Reading Everything By Greg Egan, Dammit.
When I started this last week, I was completely thrown: it was familiar. Like, I had definitely read this before. Yet I had definitely got it from the TBR shelf, so… wha? I thought about it, and I didn’t remember the ending, but let’s be honest – that’s not exactly unusual for me. So I read a few more pages – still familiar. I read ahead 20 or so pages – getting less familiar. Eh; I decided just to keep reading, and see what happened. Turns out that at some point, I read the first 50 or so pages, and then gave up. I have no idea why I would have given up at that point, because it’s not even like this is a particularly hard book as Egans go.
That is to say, if you don’t like entire pages of dense scientific discussion and you’re not the sort of person who is happy to skim that to get back to the plot, do not read this book. It’s ok; it’s no reflection on you; it’s just not going to be a happy match-up between the two of you and it’s not worth your time getting annoyed.
Even more than any other Egan until the Orthogonal books (The Clockwork Rocket and Eternal Flame), half of this book is unashamedly working through a scientific revolution. In a society where things just are the way they are and curiosity isn’t rewarded – cooperation and teamwork are, hormonally – one misfit manages to co-opt a fellow worker into being curious about the way weight changes in different parts of their habitat, and… from there, you get an explosion of scientific discoveries. How does that even work? What sort of questions do you even need to ask in order to discover basic principles of gravity, for instance? Egan throws himself, and the reader, into these issues – without forgetting that they occur in a vacuum, and therefore also incorporating discussions of social change and disruption and, because this is Egan and it’s just what he does, a bit of gender role discussion as well.
Seriously. This man.
The other half of the book is a slightly more straightforward SF plot, where the far-future equivalent of a bored early-20-something seems to handed the puzzle of a lifetime and he sets off on a joyride around the galaxy, complete with sidekick. Well, not quite, but close. You could definitely take these chapters and have a fairly good SF novel, anyway, about the differences between living in the disk of the Milky Way and living in the bulge, and how you might go about being a detective with all sorts of cool gadgets (wait til you read about the telescope they construct). The reference to the sidekick is a little unfair; Parantham is not just along to have ideas bounced off. He/she is an undeveloped character in many ways; not descended from DNA but rather – to put it crudely – from AI, Parantham allows Egan to suggest issues around body perception and suchlike but doesn’t do that issue justice. The not-quite adolescent, Rakesh, verges on petulant and annoying and just manages to avoid being such, most of the time. Their interactions are interesting enough and certainly add a different dimension to the novel overall.
In the end, I enjoyed this. It’s not Egan’s greatest, by any stretch. It’s a clever way of thinking through some scientific issues, and it has some nice character moments. Probably not the place to start with reading Egan, though.
SPOILER –>
I really thought this was going to end with Rakesh helping the people of the Splinter, and with a discussion of the role of the Aloof. As the pages kept turning and there was no actual contact, I just could not figure out where Egan was going with it. When I got to the last page, I admit I was flummoxed at first. But then I realised: Rakesh had been interacting with much later generations of the Splinter. They weren’t happening at the same time, at any point! Not that Egan had ever suggested they were, of course. I quite liked this.
The same caveat applies to this book as to every other Egan novel. If you are neither inherently fascinated by mathematics and physics taken past the bleeding edge, nor willing to tolerate possibly pages of physics discussion that you don’t get, then don’t read this novel. It’s not the book, it’s you – and that’s ok, it’s just not worth your while getting frustrated.
That said, if you’re willing to dive in, I think this is another of Egan’s awesome novels. Spoilers coming.
The premise is that at the end of the 30th century, there are some humans we would see as ‘normal’ – called fleshers here; there are more ‘people’ who inhabit the polises, which are basically massive computers – so yes, they’re virtual, from our current perspective. And there are also gleisners, who inhabit robot bodies. The plot is driven by the perspective of a couple of polis citizens; indeed it begins with the creation of an ‘orphan’, a citizen in a polis created with no input from any parental guidelines but by the polis itself, basically to test new possibilities. This orphan, who becomes Yatima, is a primary protagonist.
Some reviewers over on goodreads have been frustrated by the lack of fiction, or plot, in this story, and I can see where they’re coming from. However, there is a plot, and even if sometimes it takes something of a backseat to the ideas – well, that’s kinda the deal with an Egan story. But it’s not superfluous in any way. So what is it? Well, a gleisner astronomical survey indicates that two neutron stars are about to collapse into each other, several million years earlier than they ought to. They’re frighteningly close to the earth, and it does indeed do very bad things to the planet when the gamma rays etc get here. From this, eventually, there is a diaspora as people (broadly understood) attempt to understand this event and how to survive future ones and also, just Going Out into the universe as humanity has always dreamed of doing. Interesting things are discovered, of course.
This brings me to a rant about the blurb. It suggests that Yatima is searching for a world where no “acts of God” will occur. Um, no. If anyone is searching for that it’s Orlando, a flesher who goes into a polis after the catastrophe. But even that does absolutely no justice to anyone’s motivation. So… all I can think is that the blurber had no idea what to say about the book, and was told to focus on the plot (which they didn’t understand) rather than the ideas. This is my contempt you’re feeling right now.
And then there are the big questions Egan plays with. Some of these are things he’s actively working through over the novel, while others are things he simply takes for granted. For me, as always, his approach to gender is the most striking on a plot level. Because it’s one of the issues he simply takes for granted. Humanity living in a software-created virtual world? Why on earth would they keep to rigid binary (yes I know, all the caveats about it not actually being binary) understandings of gender? So most of the polis citizens are referred to as “ve” – and things happen to “ver” while belongings are “vis”, which is very neat. There are some who are gendered; Orlando, perhaps understandably, can’t shed his original gendered self perception; there are some polis-born citizens who also insist on it, and they’re regarded as frankly a bit weird. I adore this aspect.
The virtual nature of much of the story could lead to a complete divorcing from the physical, which is an issue I’ve been thinking a lot about since reading Nike Sulway’s Tiptree speech: the issue of divorcing matter and mind. However, I think Egan does a good job here of not doing so – and indeed of interrogating the issue. The polis inhabitants do still interact with matter, and it is important to them; there are discussions about the importance, or not, of interacting with the real and whether postulating crazy things like more dimensions than we can see or interact with is just offensive. Most polis citizens respect the material world even if they experience it differently from fleshers. And the diaspora, even if it takes places as (basically) flying computers, also interacts with the real and physical in important, fundamental and profound ways. So, go you, Egan, for not just going the lazy cyberpunk route.
Did I mention that this book takes place quite seriously over about two millennia, and then speeds up at the end to encompass even more time? What a head spin.
Some of the physics stuff he discusses: astronomy – especially the neutron star bits; extrasolar planets; alien life, including evolution and non-carbon-based possibilities; wormholes; quarks, leptons, fermions etc; and the possibility of other universes and how they would interact, or not, with the one we inhabit.
On that note, I can’t help but feel that this must to some extent be Egan’s answer to, or take, on Flatland. Indeed he references the idea of “flatland” at one stage. Because some of the characters are forced to interact with beings existing in 5 dimensions, and how are you going to do that? So that’s a really nice aspect for those who have read that somewhat obscure adventure into dimensional maths.
Some of the other ideas that Egan confronts: human evolution, both ‘natural’ and deliberate, and what that will mean for the various branches communicating with each other; the place of art and of mathematics; cloning, and its possibilities; parenthood and the nature of being an orphan; individuality and community.
I told you this was a dense, complex, and – I mean it – ambitious work, right? You can get it from Fishpond.
The following will include spoilers for The Clockwork Rocket, which I discussed over here.
A universe where parts of the spectrum of light travel at different speeds. A race where mothers cannot exist. Vector diagrams. They’re overused, but I’ll use them anyway: Egan is nothing if not ambitious and audacious.
A warning: the same issues that pertained to Clockwork crop up here. It is most definitely not a book that will work for everyone. You have to fall within a fairly specific range of readers: either someone who really enjoys thinking about physics and won’t be weirded out by the bizarre physics Egan is working through here; OR someone who is willing to skim over the vector diagrams and other physics-lecture bits, and just enjoy the story. Personally, I’m the latter. And the only reason I was willing and able to push through the physics was because I trust Egan to give me a really worthwhile story between, or around, it. I kind of imagined that I was listening to a really, really interesting person who occasionally meandered into talking about stuff I didn’t get, but was bound to get back to the good stuff eventually. And I was right.
The point of the Orthogonal series is to explore two central ideas: how the universe might be different if the speed of light isn’t constant; and how society might be different if mothers didn’t exist – or rather, they cease to exist at the point of childbirth. The story revolves around these two issues, and does so in occasionally remarkable ways. The physics aspect is very much an intellectual exercise; if there is commentary on modern science, aside from the obvious bureaucracy-getting-in-the-way, I missed it through not understanding enough of it. The biological/social aspect, though, includes a huge amount of commentary on modern Western gender relations, and it’s confronting, frightening, and sometimes scathing. I loved it.
Clockwork ended with a crew aboard the Peerless – a mountain launched into space – setting out with the objective of experimenting and thus hoping to find a solution to the probable destruction of their home world by an oncoming storm of meteors. This is only possible because of the different way light and time work in their universe; by moving away and then retuning home, much more time will have passed for them than on the planet. Because of the discoveries and attitudes, I’ve seen this book described as mirroring the Newtonian/seventeenth century European scientific revolution, which I think makes some sense but I wouldn’t push it too far. Along with the very pressing problem of saving the world, the crew carry in their bodies another issue – an issue that was only just being recognised as an issue: the fact that a mother’s flesh splits into her (usually four) children at ‘birth’. Mixing up the historical periods, this might be seen as somewhat comparable to the long period between Mary Wollstonecraft (late eighteenth century) and the suffrage movement of the early twentieth century (…. would that make Yalda both Ada Lovelace and Millicent Fawcett?? I am loving this idea, daft as it is). Women are starting to think that there might be alternatives to simply living with their co and eventually becoming their children.*
To continue this intriguing historical comparison, Eternal Flame is scientifically moving into an Einstein/Hubble frame of thinking, and socially (I can’t believe the gall of this sentence) into the second-wave feminism of the 1970s (I wish there was an author in the story that I could tag as Joanna Russ, but there’s not). In physics, in particular, there are astounding discoveries being made about the properties of light and heat which are beginning to have profound ramifications for how they think about solving their problem (problems actually, since they also left their planet with no way of getting back with the solution…). Socially, the crew has pretty much always accepted women as being just as worthy in science and other jobs as their male counterparts – not least because many of the crew, especially in the sciences, were women. However, biology is still an issue. The original women used a drug, holin, in order to delay the onset of fission (birth). By this stage – three generations later – still use holin but are also basically starving themselves, for two reasons: both to delay birth, and in the hope that their fission will result in two, rather than four, children. Because the Peerless has experienced a population explosion, and they cannot support every pair becoming five. So (to get back to my comparison), the right of a woman to decide when to have children is one of the big issues – as it was with the introduction of the pill and the controversy over abortion (which I know is still ongoing).**
There are three narrative strands going on here, which frequently intersect but deal with different issues for the ship. I assume they’re meant to be of equal importance, but I’ll be honest and say the one that dealt the most with pretty full-on physics definitely took a bit of a backseat for me, even though I could see how vital it was to the story’s point. Carlo is investigating biology and fertility; both the fact that animals appear to exchange information somehow via infrared… something… and the fact that some animals seem to have adapted to biparous fission very easily. Tamara is an astronomer who observes a massive object outside in the void, and develops an audacious plan to use it somehow. Carla, a physicist, is investigating the properties of light and energy and challenging a lot of preconceived notions in the process.
The novel as a whole does involve a lot of physics-lecture stuff. There really are a lot of vector diagrams, and graphs demonstrating energy levels, and… other things. The biology doesn’t get quite the same treatment, perhaps because it’s not quite so radically different from our world. However, the science is not the be-all of the novel – if it had been I probably wouldn’t have persevered. There’s a bit of action, with an excursion out to the Object Tamara observed and some other dangerous moments for characters I had grown fond of. There’s some great character development, in particular as different people consider the biology issues for themselves and reflect on what it means for them individually and as a society; a few make very surprising decisions that are nonetheless entirely consistent. Being set on a spaceship, large as it is, means that the story is necessarily constrained; keeping the focus on three main protagonists helps with it not feeling claustrophobic but rather focussed, which is also aided by making them active in such different spheres. The physics and biology dominate, as discussed; there are also undercurrents of the frustrations of bureaucracy and the impact of history – after all, this is a generation of people working towards solving a problem for a world they have never known.
If you want to be read a science fiction series that will really challenge you scientifically while also (largely) being very readable, coming complete with a compelling storyline, this is it.
You can get The Eternal Flame at Fishpond.
*I’m well aware that this is grossly unfair and generalising to the women before Wollstonecraft, and in fact Egan does not make it nearly so clear-cut; as with real European history, there have always been women who bucked the trend in this world, too.
**I have no idea where Egan could go with this historical comparison for the next book. Still, it was fun while it lasted.***
***I’m not suggesting Egan did this deliberately. I’m quite sure he didn’t.

Total Affect Protocol: an implanted chip which means that ultimately there's nothing a human being can experience which needs to remain ... ineffable, mysterious, incommunicable. Nothing is beyond discussion. Nothing is beyond analysis. Nothing is 'unspeakable'. A lot of people find that prospect threatening.

"I want you to find out who killed my mother, Ms O'Connor. Will you do that?"
Helen Sharp's voice was unsteady with anger; she seemed almost as psyched up as if she'd come here to confront the killer, face-to-face. Under the circumstances, though, the very act of insisting that there was a killer was like shouting a defiant accusation from the rooftops -- which must have taken some courage, even if she had no idea whom she was accusing.
I said carefully, "The coroner returned an open finding. I'm not a lawyer, but I imagine Third Hemisphere would still settle out of court for a significant -- "
"Third Hemisphere have no case to answer! And sure, maybe they'd pay up anyway -- just to avoid the publicity. But as it happens, I'm not interested in legalized blackmail." Her eyes flashed angrily; she made no effort to conceal her outrage. No doubt her lawyers had already given her exactly the same advice; it didn't look like the idea would ever grow on her. She was thirty-two -- only five years younger than me -- but she radiated so much stubborn idealism that I found it hard not to think of her as belonging to another generation entirely.
I raised one hand in a conciliatory gesture. "Fine. It's your decision. But I suggest you don't sign anything that limits your options -- and don't make any public declarations of absolution. After six months paying my expenses, you might change your mind. Or I might even turn up something that will change it for you. Stranger things have happened." Though nothing much stranger than a next-of-kin declining to screw a multinational for all it was worth.
Sharp said impatiently, "The TAP implant was not responsible. There's no evidence to suggest that it was."
"No, and there's no evidence to suggest foul play, either."
"That's why I'm hiring you. To find it."
I glanced irritably at the north-facing window; the allegedly smart pane was ablaze with sunlight, rendering most of the office almost as hot as the sweltering streets of Kings Cross below.
Grace Sharp had been dead for a month. I'd been following the case informally, like everyone else in Sydney, out of sheer morbid curiosity. On the evening of January 12, she'd been at work in her study, apparently alone. The immediate cause of death had been a myocardial infarction, but the autopsy had also shown signs of a powerful adrenaline surge. That could have resulted from the pain and stress of a heart attack already in progress -- or it could have come first, triggered by an unknown external shock.
Or, the Total Affect Protocol chip in her brain might have flooded her body with adrenaline for no good reason at all.
Sharp had been sixty-seven -- in reasonable health for her age, but old enough to blur the boundaries of the possible. Forensic pathologists had struggled at the inquest to allocate probabilities to the three alternatives, but there'd been no clear front-runner. Which was no doubt distressing for the relatives -- and no doubt left them vulnerable to the fantasy that there had to be a simple answer out there somewhere, just waiting to be found.
Helen Sharp said, "The media consensus is that my mother was composing a poem just before she died -- and she thought a word in TAP so 'powerful' that it killed her on the spot." Her tone was venomous. "Do they seriously imagine that ninety thousand sane people would put something in their brains which was capable of doing that? Or that the manufacturers would sell a device which would leave them open to billions of dollars worth of compensation claims? Or that the government licensing authorities -- "
I said, "Licensed pharmaceuticals have killed plenty of people. Implants are even harder to test. And 'fail-safe' software written to the most rigorous military specifications has crashed aircraft -- "
She seized on the analogy triumphantly. "And how do you know that? Because the aircraft's black box proved it! Well, the TAP implant has its own black box: an independent chip which logs all its actions. And there was no record of any malfunction. No record of the implant triggering an adrenaline release at any level -- let alone a fatal dose."
"Maybe the black box glitched, too. You say it's independent -- but if there's enough connectivity to let it know everything the implant does, the combined system might still be vulnerable to some kind of shared failure mode that the designers never anticipated."
Sharp clenched her fists in frustration. "That's not -- literally -- impossible," she conceded. "But I don't believe it's likely."
"All right. What do you think happened?"
Sharp composed herself, with the air of someone weary of repeating the same message, gathering up her strength with a promise to herself that this would be the last time.
She said, "My mother was working on a new poem that night -- the black box makes that clear. But the time of death can't be determined precisely -- and it could have been as much as fifteen minutes after the last recorded use of the implant. I believe she was interrupted. I believe someone broke into the apartment and killed her.
"I don't know how they did it. Maybe they just terrorized her -- without laying a finger on her -- and that was enough to bring on the heart attack." Her voice was flat, deliberately emotionless. "Or maybe they gave her a transdermal dose of a powerful stimulant. There are dozens of chemicals which could have triggered a heart attack, without leaving a trace. She wasn't found for almost nine hours. There are carbohydrate analogs of stimulatory neuropeptides which are degraded into glucose and water on a time scale of minutes."
I resisted the urge to cite the lack of evidence for an intruder; it would have been a waste of breath. "Why, though? Why would anyone want to kill her?"
She hesitated. "I'm not sure how much you know about TAP."
"Assume the worst."
"Well ... it's been wrongly described as just about everything from 'telepathy' to 'computerized Esperanto' to 'the multimedia standard for the brain'. Sure, it began with a fusion of language and VR -- but it's been growing for almost fifteen years now. There's still a word for <<dog>>" -- she sketched the angle-brackets with her fingers, and I picked up on the convention later -- "which might as well be hundo -- and another for <<your beloved golden Labrador standing on the beach shaking the water from its coat before licking your face>> ... which will evoke all that and more in all five senses, if you let it.
"But at the leading edge, now, we're creating words for concepts, emotions, states of mind, which might once have defied description altogether. With TAP, ultimately there's nothing a human being can experience which needs to remain ... ineffable, mysterious, incommunicable. Nothing is beyond discussion. Nothing is beyond analysis. Nothing is 'unspeakable'. And a lot of people find that prospect threatening; it turns a lot of old power structures on their head."
If that cliche came true every time it was invoked, power structures would be oscillating faster than mains current. Helen Sharp was pushing seven on my paranoia index; on top of all her understandable grief and frustration, she belonged to a technosubculture which was poorly understood by the mainstream, frequently misrepresented -- and which clearly liked to think of itself as a "dangerously" iconoclastic elite.
I said, "I know there are people who find TAP users ... unacceptable. But what's going to drive them to extremes like murder, all of a sudden? In fifteen years, has anyone, anywhere, been killed simply for having the implant?"
"Not to my knowledge. But -- "
"Then surely -- "
"But I can tell you exactly what's changed. I can tell you why the conflict has just entered a whole new phase."
That got my attention. "Go on."
"You know it's against the law to install a TAP implant in anyone younger than eighteen years old?"
"Of course." The same restriction applied to all neural hardware, other than therapeutic chips which restored normal function to the injured or congenitally disabled.
"Early in March, a couple here in Sydney will commence legal proceedings with the aim of ensuring that they're free to install the implant in all their future children -- at the age of three months."
I was momentarily speechless. These plans had clearly been kept within a very tight circle of supporters; the saturation media coverage of the inquest hadn't mentioned so much as a rumour. After a month of intense journalistic scrutiny, I hadn't expected the TAP-heads to have any surprises left.
I said, "Legal proceedings on what basis?"
"That they're entitled to raise their family using whatever language they choose. That's guaranteed in Federal legislation: there's a 2011 bill which brings into force most of the provisions of the 2005 UN Covenant on Human Rights. They'll be seeking a ruling from the High Court which invalidates the relevant sections of the New South Wales criminal code -- which is far more difficult, from a legal point of view, than trying to defend themselves against a prosecution after the fact ... but it does save them the trouble of having to find a surgeon willing to risk martyrdom."
Sharp smiled faintly. "The same Federal law was invoked about a year ago, by a signing couple who were being pressured by Community Services to give their son a hearing implant. The parents won the first round -- and it looks like there isn't going to be an appeal. But a pro-implant case was always going to be much harder, of course. And signing is positively respectable, compared to TAP."
"I assume the police know all this?"
"Of course. They don't appear to be particularly interested, though -- and I wasn't able to raise it at the inquest. Legally speaking, I suppose it really is just static."
"But you think -- "
"I think a death widely attributed to the TAP implant would transform the prospects of the challenge succeeding from merely poor to ... politically impossible. I think there are people who'd consider that to be a result worth killing for."
Sharp fixed her gaze on me for a moment, and then nodded slightly, almost sympathetically -- as if I'd just uttered a word which expressed all the conflicting emotions running through my head: <<Neural hardware in the skull of a three-month-old child -- just to indulge its parents' whims -- would be an obscenity. But ... if the ubiquitous hearing implants which grant English-before-sign are no "whim", why is one which grants TAP-before-English? And if Grace Sharp was murdered to sway the odds against the challenge, her self-righteous killers belong in prison, regardless -- and my own knee-jerk revulsion at the prospect of infant TAP-heads only goes to show that it could easily have been a powerful enough motive.>>
She said, "And I think you're going to take the case."
I started work that afternoon, reviewing the technical literature on the TAP implant -- the closest thing to an objective account of its capabilities I was likely to find. Like most people, I imagined I already understood all the salient features -- but it turned out that I'd swallowed more misinformation from the nets than I'd realized.
The two chips -- the implant proper and the black box, both less than a millimetre wide -- sat at the back of the skull, sharing access to a fine web of conductive polymer threads which wrapped the brain, making billions of quasi-synaptic contacts with the visual and auditory cortex, and Wernicke's speech area in the temporal lobe. Other threads penetrated deeper, some as far as the limbic system. TAP could always be spoken or written, but bandwidth requirements made modulated infrared the medium of choice, so the implant was linked, via the spinal cord, to bioengineered IR transceiver cells in the skin of the palms.
Merely installing the implant didn't grant instant fluency in TAP; the language still had to be learnt. A complete, "preloaded" vocabulary would never have worked; the precise meaning of most words in TAP could only be encoded in context, once the implant resided in a particular user's brain. The implant's own electronic neural net was ninety percent blank at installation, containing only a specialized language acquisition system and a simple "bootstrap" vocabulary. And though the learning process left its mark mostly within the implant itself -- along with some relatively minor changes to the regions of the brain where a second natural language would have been encoded -- it was meaningless to talk about either brain or chip "knowing TAP", in isolation. An experienced user who exchanged his or her old implant for a new one straight from the factory would have been dragged back almost to square one (in practice, all the data from the old hardware would be copied to the new) -- but equally, an experience-enriched implant placed in a novice's brain would have been as unusable as a slice of someone else's cerebral cortex.
These observations applied strictly to adults, of course. Despite several dozen theoretical papers -- most of them cautiously optimistic -- no one really knew how a young child's brain would interact with the implant.
A TAP user could interpret a standard VR sensorium -- but there was, deliberately, no provision for interacting in the conventional way with a nonexistent environment. Immersive VR implants temporarily paralysed the organic body and diverted motor impulses from the brain into a fully computerized somatic model: a virtual body which could function as part of the virtual environment -- subject to the environment's rules. In contrast, a TAP user's idea of interaction was more along the lines of rethinking the whole sensorium and spitting it back out, or responding with something entirely different -- arguing with the whole premise, instead of passively accepting it. A VR user had little choice but to suspend disbelief, or quit -- a full-sense environment, surreal or not, was always compelling -- but a TAP user could deal with the same kind of information with as much or as little detachment as he or she desired. Words in TAP -- which included the entire sensorium-descriptor vocabulary of VR -- could evoke images ten thousand times more vivid and precise than the densest poetic English ... or they could be held at arm's length and scrutinized dispassionately, as easily as any English-speaker could contemplate the phrase "a flash of blinding radiance" or "the overpowering stench of ammonia" without experiencing anything of the kind. In the jargon of the implant's designers -- English words, predating TAP itself -- every TAP word could be scanned (understood analytically), or played (experienced subjectively) -- or interpreted in a manner lying anywhere at all between those two extremes.
In one respect, though, TAP could be more immersive than the most authoritarian VR: it could induce emotional states directly. VR was confined to pure sense data (albeit often manipulative in the extreme), but in Total Affect Protocol there were words for <<fear>>, <<euphoria>>, <<sadness>> (or rather, nuanced subtypes of these crude English categories) -- and the implant could reach deep into the limbic system and trigger these states as easily as any VR chip could generate the illusion of an unambiguously blue sky.
The user's power to keep the language at a distance remained, of course -- and the TAP word for <<crippling despair>> could only induce the "referent state" if a conscious effort was made to play it. And though TAP's formal grammar ruled out nothing, low-level filters stood guard against potentially stupefying linguistic singularities -- such as <<the desire to play this word forever>> -- or anything physiologically dangerous.
Still, although the literature was blithely reassuring on this point, in the end it came down to a question of trusting the manufacturers and the regulators. I didn't doubt that, in theory, a TAP chip could be designed which was no more likely than the unmodified human brain to strike the user dead if the word for <<fatal adrenaline rush>> accidentally came to mind -- but whether or not Third Hemisphere had achieved that level of safety -- for every conceivable user -- was another matter.
Grace Sharp had been the oldest of the ninety thousand TAP speakers on the planet, and reputedly one of the most proficient -- but whether proficiency implied more risk, from a greater vocabulary, or less, due to better control of the language, I couldn't say.
By half past seven, I'd had enough of wading through papers on distortion-free affect-compression algorithms. I closed the office and headed for the station.
I could still smell the day's heat wafting up from Victoria Road, but there was a faint hint of a breeze from the east. The gaudy advertizing holograms never looked quite as tacky at dusk as they did at dawn, although the colours were just as washed-out; maybe it was really all down to the mood on the streets. A few sweat-stained commuters were still on their way home, radiating palpable relief -- and a few freshly laundered revellers were already arriving, full of hopeful energy. Somehow, dawn in Kings Cross never looked hopeful.
I passed a gaggle of saffron-robed monks from the Darlinghurst Temple, out hunting for alms, on the other side of the street. James didn't seem to be among them -- though it was hard to tell: they all looked interchangeable to me, and my strongest memories of him didn't encompass the terminal, shaven-headed stage. Even when I recalled the night he announced that he was leaving me and Mick for a life devoted to selfless contemplation -- "There's no point arguing, Kath," he'd explained, with an expression of transcendent smugness, "I'm not enslaved by the illusions of language anymore." -- even then, strangely enough, I pictured him as he'd looked ten years before. Buddhism had been growing ever more fashionable throughout the country for most of my lifetime -- taking the place of retreating Christianity, as if the "vacuum" left behind needed to be filled by something equally absurd -- but in the last ten years the Federal government had started supporting the monasteries in a big way, with a program of "community spiritual development" grants. Maybe they were hoping to save on social security payments.
I hesitated outside the station, thinking: A single TAP word could capture this moment -- perfectly encoding my entire sensorium, and everything I'm thinking and feeling. A word I could speak, write, recall. Study at a distance -- scan -- or play, relive completely. Inflect and modify. Quote exactly (or not) to the closest friend or the most distant stranger.
I had to admit that it was a deeply unsettling notion: a language which could encompass, if not the universe itself, then everything we could possibly experience of it. At any given moment, there were "only" ten to the power three thousand subjectively distinguishable states of the human brain. A mere ten thousand bits of information: quite a mouthful, encoded as syllables -- but only a millisecond flash in infrared. A TAP user could effectively narrate his or her entire inner life, with one hundred percent fidelity, in real time. Leopold Bloom, eat your heart out.
I boarded the southbound train, the skin on the back of my neck still tingling. The carriage was packed, so I stood strap-hanging with my eyes closed, letting the question spin in the darkness of my skull: Who, or what, killed Grace Sharp? Work was never something I could switch on and off -- and unless I reached the stage where part of me was thinking about the case every waking moment, the chances were I'd make no progress at all.
Helen Sharp believed in some faceless conspiracy against TAP as a first language, driven by sheer linguistic xenophobia -- though the real opposition might also be motivated, in part, by perfectly valid concerns about the unknown developmental consequences for a child growing up with TAP.
The serious media favoured a simple failure of technology; several worthy editorials had rewritten the Sharp case as a cautionary tale about the need for improved quality control in biomedical engineering. Meanwhile, the tabloids had gleefully embraced the idea of the <<death>> word, quasi-mystical enough to give their anti-tech subscribers a frisson of self-righteousness at the poetic justice of a TAP-head thinking herself into oblivion ... and their pro-tech ones a frisson of awe at the sheer Power of the Chip.
And it was still possible that Grace Sharp had simply had a heart attack, all by herself. No assassins, no fatal poetry, no glitch.
So far, I could only agree with the coroner: I wasn't prepared to rule anything out.
By the time I arrived home, Mick had already eaten and retreated to his room to play Austro-Hungarian Political Intrigues in Space. He'd been running the scenario for almost six months, along with a dozen friends -- some in Sydney, some in Beijing, some in Sao Paulo. They'd graciously let me join in once, as a minor character with an unpronounceable name, but I'd become terminally bored after ten minutes and engineered my own death as swiftly as possible. I had nothing against role-playing games, per se ... but this was the most ludicrous one I'd encountered since Postmodernism Ate My Love Child. Still, every twelve-year-old needed something truly appalling to grow out of -- something to look back on in a year's time with unconditional embarrassment. The books I'd read, myself (and adored, at the time) had been no better.
I knocked on his door, and entered. He was lying on his bed with the headset on and his hands above his head, making minimalist gestures with both control gloves: driving a software puppet body which had no sense of touch, or balance, or proprioception. He was moving its limbs with actions which had nothing to do with moving his own ... but he was seeing and hearing everything through the puppet's eyes and ears.
Most of the studies I'd read had suggested that the earlier a child took up VR (headset-and-glove, of course, not implant-based), the fewer side-effects it had on real-life coordination and body image. The skills of moving real and virtual bodies didn't seem to compete for limited neural resources; they could be learnt in parallel, as easily as two languages. Only adults got confused between the two (and did better with VR implants, which let them pretend they were using their physical bodies). The research suggested that an hour a day in VR was no more harmful than an hour a day of any other equally unnatural activity: violin practice, ballet, karate.
I still worried, though.
The room monitor flagged my presence. At a convenient break in the action, Mick slipped off the headset to greet me, doing his best to hide his impatience.
I said, "School?"
He shrugged. "Bland-out. Work?"
"I've got a murder case."
His face lit up. "Resonant! What class weapon?"
"Unkind words."
"¿Que?"
"It's a joke." I almost started to explain, but it didn't seem fair to hold up the other players. "You'll quit at nine, okay? I don't want to have to check on you."
"Mmmm." Deliberately noncommittal.
I said calmly, "I can program it, or you can stick to the rules voluntarily. It's your choice."
He scowled. "It's no choice, if it makes no difference."
"Very profound. But I happen to disagree." I walked over to him and brushed the hair from his eyes; he gave me his I-wish-you-wouldn't-but-you're-forgiven-this-time look.
Mick said suddenly, "Unkind words? You mean Grace Sharp?"
I nodded, surprised.
"Some guru last week was prating about her TAPping herself to death." He seemed greatly amused -- and it struck me that "guru" was several orders of magnitude more insulting than anything I would have dared to say in front of my mother, at his age. At least put-downs were getting more elegant; my generation's equivalents had relied almost exclusively on references to excrement or genitalia. Mick and his contemporaries weren't at all prudish -- they just found the old scatological forms embarrassingly childish.
I said, "You don't believe in the <<death>> word?"
"Not some banana skin land mine you make yourself, by accident."
I pondered that. "But if it exists at all, don't you think it'd be easier to fight if it came from outside, than if you stumbled on it in your own thoughts?"
He shook his head knowingly. "TAP's not like that. You can't invent random words in your head -- you can't try out random bit-patterns. You can imagine things, you can free-associate, but ... not all the way to death, without seeing it coming."
I laughed. "So when did you read up on this?"
"Last week. The story sounded flash, so I went context mining." He glanced at his terminal and made some slight hand movements; a cluster of icons for Universal Resource Locators poured into an envelope with my name on it, which darted into the outgoing mail box. "References."
"Thanks. I wasted the whole afternoon -- I should have come home early and picked your brains instead." I was only half joking.
I sat on the edge of the bed. "If she didn't stumble on the word herself, though ... I don't see how anyone could have spoken it to her: as far as the police could tell, she'd had no visitors -- or communications -- for hours. And if someone broke into the apartment, they left no trace."
"How about ... ?" Mick gestured with one gloved thumb at the shelf above his bed.
"What?" I parsed the clutter of objects slowly. "Ah."
He'd set up an IR link with his friend Vito, who lived in an apartment block across the park; they could exchange data twenty-four hours a day without either family paying a cent to the fibre barons. The collimated beam of the five-dollar transceiver passed effortlessly through both their bedroom windows.
"You think someone outside the apartment ... shot her in the palm with a <<death>> word?" The notion conjured up bizarre images: a figure taking aim with a gunless night-sight; Grace Sharp with outstretched arms and infrared stigmata.
"Maybe. Split the fee, if I'm right?"
"Sure. Minus rent, food, clothes, communications -- "
Mick mimed violin playing. I feigned a swipe at his head. He glanced at the terminal; his friends were losing patience.
I said, "I'd better leave you to it."
He smiled, held up his hand in a farewell gesture like a diver about to submerge, then slipped the headset back on. I lingered in the room for a few seconds, feeling profoundly strange.
Not because I felt that I was losing touch with my son. I wasn't. But the fact that we could comprehend each other at all suddenly seemed like the most precarious voodoo. Natural language had endured, fundamentally unchanged, through a thousand social and technological revolutions ... but TAP made it look like some Stone Age tool, a flake of crudely shaped obsidian in an era when individual atoms could be picked up and rearranged at whim.
And maybe in the long run, all the trial-and-error and misunderstandings, all the folk remedies of smiles and gestures, all the clumsy imperfect well-meaning attempts to bridge the gap, would be swept away by the dazzling torrent of communication without bounds.
I closed the door quietly on my way out.
The next morning I started going through the transcripts of the inquest -- which included a 3D image of Sharp's study. The body had been found around 8:20 AM by a domestic aid who came three times a week -- Sharp, although generally fit, had suffered from severe arthritis in her hands. Paramedics had removed the body before the police became involved, but they'd snapped the scene first as a routine procedure.
The apartment was on the 25th floor, and the study had a large window facing west. The curtains were shown fully open -- although there was nothing in the transcripts, one way or the other, about the possibility that the man who'd found the body, or even the paramedics, might have opened them to let in some light. I grafted the image into the local council's plan of the suburb, and did some crude ray-tracing from where the forensic software suggested Sharp had been standing before she fell. A bullet would have left directional information -- but a burst of IR could have come from any location with a clear line of sight. Given the uncertainty in her position, and the size of the window, the possibilities encompassed the windows and balconies of sixty-three apartments. Most were beyond the range of cheap hobbyists' IR equipment -- but I looked up skin-transceiver sensitivity, attenuation in the atmosphere, and beam spread parameters, then started checking product catalogues. There were several models of communications lasers which would have done the job -- and the cheapest was only three hundred dollars. Not the kind of thing you could buy from an electronics retailer, but there were no formal restrictions on purchase or ownership. It wasn't a weapon, after all.
The world's greatest TAP poet, shot by a word? It was a seductive idea -- and I was surprised that the tabloids hadn't seized on it, weeks ago -- but in the cold light of morning, I was finding it increasingly difficult to believe that Grace Sharp had died from anything but natural causes. The building had excellent security; the forensic team had found no sign of an intruder. The testimony of the black box wasn't watertight, but on balance it probably did exonerate the implant. And Helen Sharp herself had been convinced that the <<death>> word was impossible.
I spent the morning slogging through the rest of the transcripts, but there was nothing very illuminating. The experts had washed their hands of Grace Sharp's death. I didn't blame them: if the evidence supported no clear verdict, the honest thing to do was to say so. At most inquests, though, someone managed to slip a speculation or two into the proceedings: a pathologist's gut-level hunch, an engineer's unprovable intuition. A few lines I could wave accusingly in their face when I cornered them in their office -- prompting them to spill the whole elaborate, unofficial hypothesis they'd been nurturing in their head for months. But there wasn't a single foothold here, a single indiscretion I could pursue; every witness had been cautious to a fault.
So I had nowhere else to go: I steeled myself and went trawling through the archives for the enemies of TAP.
Media releases (mainly from politicians and religious figures), letters and essays in edited publications, and postings to net forums gave me about seventeen thousand individuals who'd had something disparaging to say to the world about TAP. The search algorithm was multilingual, but I didn't trust it to pick up irony reliably, so even this crude first grab had to be taken with a mountain of salt. Twelve percent of the forum postings were anonymous -- and the random sample I inspected made it clear that they came from the most vehement opponents -- but I put them aside; textual analysis of a few gigabytes of invective could wait for barrel-scraping time.
Clustering software picked up some fairly predictable connections. Two-thirds of the people I'd found were officially speaking on behalf of -- or explicitly mentioned their membership or approval of -- one of ninety-six organizations: political, religious, or cultural.
The software drew ninety-six star-diagrams. The biggest cluster was for Natural Wisdom: a quasi-green lobby group set up for the sole purpose of opposing the use of neural hardware. Most members were European, but there was a significant Australian presence. Second largest was The Fountain of Righteousness, a U.S.-based fundamentalist Christian coalition; they had half a dozen local affiliate churches. Cluster size didn't necessarily measure the strength of opposition, though; the Roman Catholic church ranked a mere thirtieth -- but only because it was so rigidly hierarchical, with a relatively small list of appointed spokesmen. Most Islamic authorities weren't keen on neural hardware, either -- but many predominantly Islamic countries had simply outlawed the technology, largely defusing it as an issue. Islam's best showing was for a UK group, and that was ranked fifty-seventh.
I cut the data set down to Australia only. Nineteen organizations remained -- and the top six rankings stayed the same, for what that was worth. There was something of the flavour of a witch-hunt to this whole analysis; I wasn't publicly accusing anyone of anything -- I wasn't libelling Natural Wisdom as murderous thugs for daring to speak out against the implant -- but this kind of crude fishing expedition always made me feel distinctly uneasy.
Still, if these were the people who'd feel most threatened by the prospect of children growing up with TAP ... who among them could have known about the impending High Court challenge?
I scanned the membership databases of legal and paralegal associations, and the mailing lists of relevant journals, scooping up anyone who gave an address care of Huntingdale and Partners -- the firm who were preparing the "infant implant" brief.
There was zero overlap with the anti-TAP set -- which was no great surprise. I imagined the police would have gone at least this far, and they'd had better resources: they could have pulled the whole Huntingdale workforce from taxation records, with no chance of so much as a clerical assistant falling through the cracks.
I gazed at the screen, dispirited. All I had to show for a day's work were sixty-three apartments with a view of Grace Sharp's study, and seventeen thousand people who'd done nothing more incriminating than put themselves on the record as opponents of TAP.
The only thing left to try was intersecting the two.
Finding apartment numbers to match the physical locations in the building plans was the hardest part; architects and developers didn't have to file anything so petty when they had their projects approved. I was actually beginning to contemplate doing the necessary legwork myself, when I discovered that someone had done it for me: an ad hoc consortium of sellers of insurance, fire-alarms, security equipment and climate control had commissioned a database for the entire metropolitan area, to help them target their junk mail. The suburb I needed only cost fifty bucks -- complete with email tags.
I cross-matched with the anti-TAP set.
A single name appeared.
John Dallaporta belonged to none of my organisational clusters, and I had only one piece of data on his attitude to TAP: a short essay he'd written, seven years before, decrying the implant's potential to "erode the richness of our ancient and beautiful tongues" and "invade the still, mysterious spaces of our minds". The essay had appeared in a secondary English teachers' netzine; I summoned up the whole issue, and flipped through its innocuous contents. The majority of the articles dealt with working conditions, and concerns arising out of new technology; there was also an earnest -- almost painfully respectful -- discussion of strategies for coping with parents who forbade their children contact with the filthy/sexist/atheistic/elitist/ superstitious/obsolete works of Shakespeare, et al. Not the kind of venue you'd seriously expect to lead you to a man who slaughtered his ideological enemies.
I reread Dallaporta's essay carefully. It was passionate, but hardly inflammatory; he sounded very much like just one more plaintive, insecure technophobe letting off steam, to a no doubt largely sympathetic audience. I was inclined to be sympathetic, myself -- in all honesty, the implant made my skin crawl -- but there was a self-serving undercurrent which detracted from the force of his arguments. Certainly, portraying English as an endangered language was ridiculous, when more people were speaking it than at any other time in history.
And though I could picture Dallaporta outside the court with a placard, once the challenge to the implant legislation began, I found it hard to imagine the author of these moderate words killing Grace Sharp in cold blood -- and harder still to imagine him discovering the means to do it.
I was growing tired of desk work, but I spent the next few hours studying the fragmentary portrait of the man offered by the net. He was forty-seven years old, divorced five years, with two daughters in their mid-teens. Presumably his ex-wife had custody of both children, since all the data suggested that he lived alone. He'd been a teacher in government high schools all his working life; in his late twenties, he'd published some poetry in literary journals, but unless he'd adopted an undocumented pseudonym, there'd been nothing since. He seemed to belong to no organization but the State School Teachers' Union, and if he subscribed to any religion, no marketing demographer had yet managed to pin it down.
So much for the electronic profile. I didn't believe for a moment that he could have killed Grace Sharp -- but I wasn't prepared to rule it out until I'd met him in the flesh.
I found a calendar of events for the Laurence Brereton Memorial High School. There was a parent-teacher night in three days' time.
I arrived late enough not to have to loiter outside for too long before catching sight of a few departing parents, still wearing their name badges. I got a good look at the style and the materials used -- but I was even luckier than that: one man dropped his badge into a recycling bin right before my eyes. I'd come prepared with a variety of cardboard samples, safety pins and clips, but all I had to do was fish out this discarded one, match the font on my notepad's printer, and spray my own -- borrowed -- name onto the blank side.
No one challenged me as I entered the crowded hall and walked straight past the desk where parents were queuing up to register their attendance and collect their badges. I spotted a row of work stations dispensing guidance; I walked up to one and tried to make an enquiry, but it was too clever by far: the only entry point was "parent's name" -- apparently all it needed in order to highlight every relevant teacher on a personalized map of the hall. I stood back and watched other people use the software, until Dallaporta's name appeared.
It seemed an odd time of year for an event like this; Mick's high school had held an orientation night before the start of term, but they hadn't yet invited me back. The buzz of conversation around me sounded remarkably amiable, though; maybe it was a good strategy to drag the parents in as early as this, and try to nip any problems in the bud.
John Dallaporta was tall and slender, clean-shaven, slightly balding. He was being talked at loudly by someone's proud father -- and though his eyes were glazed, and his smile a little wooden, he didn't strike me as a man who'd been sleepless with guilt for the past five weeks.
When the father departed, I approached purposefully. Dallaporta offered his hand and said smoothly, "Good to see you, Ms. Stone." He hesitated. "I'm sorry, but I don't think I -- "
I smiled disarmingly. "No, you don't teach my daughter. But I wanted to speak to you, and this seemed like too good an opportunity to pass up. I hope you don't mind."
"Not at all. But I should explain: I'm not the head of department this year. It rotates between the senior teachers, so Carol Bailey -- " He glanced around, then pointed her out. "Do you see -- ?"
I shook my head apologetically. "It's not a departmental matter. I just wanted to meet you. I read an essay you wrote, a few years ago: The Bit-Stream of the Rose. And I liked what you had to say there, very much. So when I realized you were teaching in my daughter's new school ... "
Dallaporta eyed me curiously, a little bemused, but he betrayed no obvious unease or suspicion. "That's so long ago now, I'm surprised you remember it at all. Let alone the name of the author."
"Of course I remember! And I just hope the rest of the department share your values on those ... issues. I used to teach English, myself. I know the kind of pressures you're facing. And of course I want my own children to be technologically literate -- but some of us have to take a stand, or who knows what 'technologically literate' will mean, in twenty years' time?"
Dallaporta nodded affably, but now I could see muscles tightening at the sides of his jaws -- the ones which contract when you're trying too hard not to let anything show. Proving what? Nothing at all -- except that he had stronger feelings about TAP than he cared to discuss with a total stranger in a crowded hall.
I kept pushing. "When I started high school, myself, if you didn't have your own PC on your desk at home, you were marginalized. These days the work stations come for free -- if you sign up for a thousand-a-month worth of 'vital' net access. And any child who can't interview Afghani nomads for a geography assignment -- or get a live feed from the latest Venus probe via JPL -- might as well quit and go work at McDonalds. When does it stop? When my grandchildren are twelve, what will 'entry level' be, for them?"
Dallaporta laughed, not quite naturally. "I wouldn't dare hazard a guess. But I have faith in people. In common sense."
I made direct eye contact, trying to decide if he was genuinely rattled -- or just didn't trust himself to get on the soapbox, even for such an obviously sympathetic listener.
"Common sense? I hope you're right. I've heard some rumours lately which don't bear thinking about -- "
Dallaporta blanched visibly. Meaning he knew about the court case? And now assumed that I had some connection to whoever had given him the news? I offered him a conspiratorial smile: Relax, I'm a friend, we're on the same side.
I said, "Look, I didn't mean to take up so much of your time. But it was so nice to meet you, finally." I held out my hand, and Dallaporta shook it, slipping back onto autopilot with obvious relief.
I walked out into the warm evening. There was a real Lydia Stone, with a daughter who'd just started Year 8; Dallaporta might check the records, but I didn't think he was likely to confront the girl's teachers and ask them to sketch an identikit for comparison.
I glanced up at the washed-out sky, at the handful of visible stars -- and thought once more: this moment would be a single word, in TAP. <<The scent of cut grass from the playing fields, the rumble of suburban traffic, the melancholy yellow lights of the hall beside the darkness of the empty classrooms.>> A moment skewered like a butterfly? A ten-thousand-bit digital corpse of the world, shedding dead pixels in the mind's eye? Or a moment captured like a mood perfectly evoked by a phrase of music? No one had ever felt the need to murder a composer, just to safeguard the languages which couldn't compete on equal terms with fugues and sonatas. No one had ever taken a human life just to stop eccentric parents bombarding their offspring with Bach and Mozart in the womb. What made TAP so much more threatening? The fact that it could evoke images and emotions beyond the reach of any symphony? The fact that it was so much better?
I'd actually meant most of what I'd said to Dallaporta -- but the more I thought about the issues, the more ambivalent I became. No one was trying to "force" TAP onto anyone, except their own children -- and to raise a child at all was to impose a set of choices, one way or another. Actively or passively. Consciously, or through sheer conformity or neglect. The prospect of TAP-heads meddling with their children's brains -- just so they could share an artificial language -- still filled me with instinctive, visceral outrage ... but was it any more virtuous for the rest of us to insist that no child be given the implant until their brains were fully formed in the ten-thousand-year-old mould of our own Stone Age preconceptions? Weren't both sides just attempting to shape future generations in their own image?
And putting aside prejudice, instinct, and nostalgia ... which first language really would provide the best tools for dealing with the modern world?
That was a good question. It just wasn't the one I was being paid to answer.
I planted a dozen small recording devices in pay phones near Dallaporta's apartment, and the school. Which was highly illegal -- but both less risky, and more likely to succeed (if he was actually guilty of anything), than trying to bug his home. I'd sampled his voice at the parent-teacher night, so the bugs could discard everyone else's conversations. I cycled by and queried them daily.
I finally tracked down Tom Davies, Grace Sharp's domestic aid -- a TAP-head himself. The curtains of the study were always left open, he said. Grace liked to work looking out across the skyline; she'd chosen the apartment for the view.
I couldn't help asking, sarcastically, "Wouldn't it have been cheaper just to visit some rich friend's apartment -- and memorize the TAP words for everything she saw?"
He laughed. "Of course. And she could have written scenery in her head to put any ten-million-dollar harbour view to shame."
"So why didn't she?"
"Do you know how Grace defined 'reality'?"
"No."
"The ten thousand bits that are left when you've argued everything else out of existence."
After weeks of persistent harassment, I persuaded Maxine Ho, one of Third Hemisphere's senior engineers, to talk to me off the record. She stuck to the official line, though: the <<death>> word was impossible. Whatever Grace Sharp had imagined, or whatever TAP sequence some would-be assassin had confronted her with, all the safeguards operated on a separate level, independent of the language protocol -- and when the implant had been examined after the autopsy, there'd been no trace of damage or corruption to the relevant hardware or software.
"Of course a neural implant can kill you. A pacemaker can kill you. A work station can kill you. Any piece of technology can fail. But if someone died sitting at a work station -- and when I took it apart there was no sign of a loose wire or a break in the insulation -- I wouldn't say: 'She must have been running the legendary <<death>> program, which instructed the machine to electrocute her.' I'd go looking for another cause of death."
It was a specious analogy. Perfectly functioning TAP implants routinely sent signals to the hypothalamus, which in turn stimulated the adrenal gland; perfectly functioning work stations weren't set up to dispense electric shocks at any dose.
Still, I thought she was being basically straight with me. If she believed that the implant had failed at all, she believed it was a one-in-a-million glitch: less a design flaw than a tragic proof of the intrinsic unpredictability of any real device out in the real world -- the kind of thing which would have been excused as "natural causes" if an equally robust biological system had failed.
On March 5th, the High Court challenge to the implant restrictions became public knowledge. The case wasn't scheduled to be heard until September -- but the reaction to the news was immediate.
Helen Sharp had been right about one thing: her mother's death was seized upon by almost every commentator as proof that a successful challenge would amount to the legalization of infanticide. Not that Their Honours could be influenced by emotive editorials -- perish the thought -- but even if they weren't, it was clear that the Federal government would be ready with the necessary amendments within days of any decision which put the State criminal law in doubt. I set my knowledge miner digging, but reasoned debate about the merits of the case -- the actual merits, not the legal ones -- could barely be found outside obscure neurolinguistics journals. (TAP speakers' netzines were in TAP, and I had no translation software.)
The night the news broke, Mick declared, "I want one."
"Then you'll just have to wait six years, won't you?"
"Not if they win."
"If they win, you'd better start mowing lawns and washing windows. Six years should do it either way."
He accepted that without protest -- but then asked innocently, "So what's your favourite medium?"
"Text. And I know: I'm a boring old fart, but you're still not -- " He wore a pained expression -- and not just because "old fart" was cringe-inducing baby-talk. I'd missed the point.
"I'm sorry. What were you going to say?"
Mick spoke carefully. "How'd you like it if every time you picked up a book, you had to swallow everything the writer said? If you couldn't stop mid-sentence and think: 'This is ... bullshit.' If you lost the power to argue in your head with every word."
"I'd hate it."
He said, "That's where VR's heading. Without TAP."
I was taken aback by the bleakness of this forecast -- but it rang true. Without a language as powerful as the medium, there was little room for argument, little room for doubt. Just unearned suspension of disbelief.
I reached over to the cable which snaked from his headset to the work station, and looped it absentmindedly around one finger. I said, "If it's as bad as that, then stop using it. It's your choice."
One look answered that; he didn't need to elaborate. Why should he be forced to abandon his own favourite medium? Why shouldn't he have the chance to salvage it, reinvigorate it, instead? Present at the birth of spoken language, would I have fought to abolish it, like some fanatical Zen terrorist afraid of its power to deceive? Or would I have fought to enrich it, to balance that power with scepticism and analysis?
I said lamely, "There's more to life than VR."
Mick grinned triumphantly. "Exactly. But there isn't more to life than TAP."
I took on other cases: runaway children, minor computer fraud -- routine work, but at least it gave me the satisfaction of swift results. Helen Sharp could no longer afford to keep me on full-time -- and I'd virtually run out of productive ways to spend her money, anyway. If her mother had died from some unrepeatable glitch, biological or otherwise, nobody would ever prove it. So I offered no false hopes, and worked on the assumption that in a few more months, she'd come to her senses and tell me that the case was closed.
Then, in the middle of April, one of my pay phone bugs finally spoke.
I was dutifully cycling past, checking them all in the pouring rain, though I no longer seriously expected anything. When my notepad chimed the code for success, I almost dropped it into a storm drain.
Playing back the recording on the bike, in the rain, would have been impossible. Playing it back on a crowded train would have been stupid -- I didn't have the headphones -- but I was tempted. By the time I reached the office, I'd convinced myself I'd hear nothing but a service call: Dallaporta complaining that his home connection was out of order.
I was wrong.
Dallaporta whispered urgently, "You have to help me. I need your advice." It was a monologue; he was leaving a message. "I didn't get rid of it, on the night. I thought: it's not illegal -- so why not keep it, just in case?" My skin crawled. He didn't elaborate, but I could guess exactly what he meant: Just in case it becomes expedient, at some time in the unforeseeable future, to kill another prominent TAP-head.
He inhaled deeply, as if trying to calm himself. "That was ... insane, I know. I wasn't thinking straight. But now ... I can't just throw it in the river! What if the police are watching me? What if they're going through my garbage?" That was unlikely, but I was grateful for his paranoia -- and his incompetence: whispering into a public phone with (I imagined) a hand shielding lips and mouthpiece wouldn't have done him much good if he had been under police surveillance.
"I've wiped the code, now." Shit. "I followed the instructions, I'm sure it worked. But I have to get rid of the machine. I need to know the best way -- the safest way -- to do it. Please. Call me back at the usual place."
I decoded the number he'd called, from the tones -- but it was a commercial message rerouting service -- and one that was far too classy to be bribed or hacked.
I sat at the desk, still dripping, trying to decide what to do next. The humidity control system in the north window was pumping water vapour into the room; I'd never get dry unless I went and stood out in the hall for an hour.
Everything I had so far would be less than useless to the police; the illegality of the phone bugs aside, every connection between Dallaporta and Grace Sharp's death remained pure speculation. And I wasn't even sure I had enough to convince Helen Sharp, who didn't believe in <<death>> words. Nothing Dallaporta had said proved that he'd been talking about an infrared communications laser -- and the crucial data it had transmitted was probably lost forever, now.
But it sounded like I still had a very slim chance to photograph "the machine", in situ.
The message had been left at 6:23 that morning. I glanced at my watch; school would be out in two hours. I had no way of knowing how long it would take for Dallaporta's backers (Natural Wisdom? The Fountain of Righteousness?) to come to his rescue -- assuming they didn't just decide to abandon him -- but I couldn't risk waiting another day.
I knew I'd be cutting it fine, but I didn't seem to have much choice.
There were six hundred apartments in Dallaporta's building -- and the sheer weight of numbers had its advantages. I stood across the street behind a bus shelter and waited for someone to approach the main entrance. When a young man appeared, key in hand, I dashed across the road and caught up with him, breathless, soaked, umbrella-less, fumbling. He let me through without a moment's hesitation. I hung back in the lobby shaking water from my coat so I wouldn't have to talk to him in the elevator; I hadn't had time to prepare any plausible lies, and if he'd so much as asked me how long I'd lived in the building, I probably would have been struck dumb.
Dallaporta's apartment, 1912, had a reinforced security door with an impressive-looking deadlock. I found a utilities room at the end of the corridor, and picked its lock easily enough. There was a hatch in the ceiling -- and even a ladder standing in a corner of the room. I rechecked the plans of the building on my notepad: not every apartment had a ceiling hatch; 1911 did, 1912 didn't.
I climbed into the ceiling and crawled across the dusty beams as quietly as I could, hoping I hadn't lost my bearings. I lay above apartment 1911, just listening, for almost five minutes -- then I realized I'd never be certain it was empty. A baby sleeping, an adult quietly reading ... I didn't even know who lived there, I hadn't had time to find out.
Cursing silently, I crawled back to the utilities room, brushed myself down, and went and rang the bell to 1911.
I rang three times. No one was home.
I retraced my path, lifted the hatch, lowered a rope into the apartment. My forearms ached as I descended; I hadn't done an illegal entry since before Mick was born. The old buzz was tinged with new anxieties: I was too old for this cat-burglar shit -- and I couldn't afford to lose my licence. But I felt a kind of defiant euphoria, too -- because everything was harder, because I had so much more to lose.
And it would all be one word, in TAP ...
The balconies of the two apartments were separated by less than a metre, but they were flush with the outside wall of the building -- no overhang at all. I climbed up onto the waist-high foot's-width concrete guard wall, steadied myself by pressing up with my left hand against the balcony's ceiling -- then with the right, reached across the naked brickwork of the outside wall and into Dallaporta's balcony. I was lucky; I was on the side of the building facing away from the wind.
I moved a foot across, too, embraced the brickwork tightly, shifted the centre of mass of my body a few crucial centimetres -- fighting down momentary panic -- and within seconds, my right hand and foot were lodged securely between Dallaporta's guard wall and ceiling, and it was far easier to go forward than back. I jumped shakily down onto his cluttered balcony, just missing a pot plant. I glanced at the street, nineteen storeys below -- and pictured Mick at my funeral, still refusing to talk to his father. There was a chance that someone had seen me cross, but there was nothing I could do about that -- and the downpour seemed to shift the odds in my favour: I could barely make out Grace Sharp's building at all, through the curtain of rain.
A sliding glass door separated the balcony from the apartment. It fitted loosely between a ceiling track and a guide rail buried in the concrete floor; it was probably designed to be lifted right out, for ease of replacement -- but only when it was unlocked. There was no question of trying to pick the lock; there was no keyhole -- just a catch operated by a lever on the other side of the door. By pressing on the glass with both gloved hands, though, I could get enough purchase to raise and tilt the whole door slightly. After almost ten minutes -- with my wrists going numb -- I managed to work the catch free.
I opened the door a few centimetres, then paused at the threshold, scanning the room for burglar alarms. It was clear.
As I moved into the apartment, I heard footsteps in the corridor, then a key going into the lock. I retreated to the balcony, but it was too late to start climbing back the way I'd come; I would have been in full view. I slid the door closed -- I couldn't re-lock it -- then dropped to the floor behind a pile of junk.
I heard at least two people enter the apartment, then turn left into the corridor which led out of the living room. I took a button-sized video camera, and stuck it to the frame of Dallaporta's bike, which was leaning against the wall of the balcony. I checked the image on my notepad, then tweaked the direction until I had a clear view of most of the room.
I dropped out of sight again just in time. The intruders -- a man and a woman, neither of whom I'd seen before -- returned, carrying a cardboard carton about thirty centimetres long. I zoomed in; the labelling suggested a presentation bottle of Scotch. Dallaporta's friends clearly didn't share his paranoia; they knew the police weren't watching the apartment. He wanted the laser to disappear -- and they'd obligingly turned up to remove it.
The woman said, "You think he wiped it properly?"
The man hesitated. "I wouldn't count on it." I wondered why they hadn't automated the process -- but then, it would have been impossible to predict exactly when the opportunity to use the code on Grace Sharp would arise, or how many attempts it would take to hit the target.
"Well, I'm not walking out of here carrying incriminating -- "
The man groaned -- but he opened the carton. I recognized the laser from the catalogues I'd scanned; most of the bulk was in the precision optics, which doubled as a kind of telescope for checking alignment -- the unit was meant for inner city rooftop-to-rooftop communications. There was a small device about the size of a matchbox plugged in to the data port; the man hit a button on the side of the box, and peered at a tiny LCD display.
"Hey, the Jackal got it right. I'm impressed." He laughed. "'I thought: Why not keep it, just in case?' The poor cretin really thought he had the <<death>> word -- and he could go on playing kill-the-TAP-head for as long as he liked."
The woman said dryly, "Don't be so ungrateful. If he'd known what he was doing, he wouldn't have done it at all."
They left. I pocketed the camera and crossed back to 1911 immediately, not wanting to be in sight when they reached the street. In the ceiling, I had to force myself not to rush; if I was careless, I could still get caught.
In five minutes, I was out of the building. I circled the block, then spiralled out through the surrounding streets, on the slim chance of catching sight of them again.
After half an hour I gave up, and went into a coffee shop to replay the video. I should have been jubilant: I had a clear shot of a communications laser, and a soundtrack with two people discussing the killing of TAP-heads.
The only catch was, it didn't sound like they believed in <<death>> words any more than Maxine Ho or Helen Sharp.
I invited Helen Sharp to my office. I showed her Dallaporta's essay, and the geometry of the buildings. I played back the phone call, and the scene in his apartment.
I said, "You're the TAP expert. You want to tell me what's going on?"
She sat in silence for a long time before replying.
"There is one possibility."
"Which is?"
"My mother had the earliest model implant. Right to the end. She never had an upgrade -- she didn't trust them to transfer her vocabulary properly. She was afraid she'd lose everything she'd learnt."
"And you think ... the old models did have a <<death>> word?"
"No. But they could be microprogrammed externally."
"You've lost me." That wasn't quite true, but I wanted her to spell it out. I wasn't sure how much I really did know about the implant -- how much the glowing technical reports might have misled me.
Sharp looked terrible -- the fact that she'd just laid eyes on the people who'd arranged the death of her mother was finally sinking in -- but she explained patiently: "The basic hardware of any neural net computer is just ... a big array of interconnected RISC processors. The chip is mass-produced as a commodity -- hundreds of millions of them a year -- and used in tens of thousands of different devices. All the specific characteristics are added by the microcode: low-level instructions which customize the processors to make them behave in certain useful ways. The main software then takes that level for granted -- as if it's all hardwired into the silicon. But it's not.
"When they released the first consumer model of the TAP implant, Third Hemisphere were worried that there might be some undiscovered flaw in the microcode. If they'd had to take all the implants out of people's skulls to correct it, that would have been a PR nightmare. So they left a routine in the microcode which gave it the power to accept updates in infrared -- to modify any part of itself, given the right sequence of external instructions."
"So there was a special TAP word which could get at all the infrastructure? A word which said: <<Replace the old microcode with X>>?"
"No! It wasn't a TAP word -- it was a reserved sequence, right outside the language protocol! It was meaningless in TAP, it could never have been spoken. That was the whole point!"
It seemed like a minor distinction to me -- but I could understand why she attached so much importance to it. The language itself hadn't killed her mother. The poet hadn't died from a word, after all.
I said, "If that's what happened, though ... why didn't the engineers who examined your mother's implant find any evidence of it? And if you knew all this -- "
Sharp snapped back angrily, "I didn't know she still had the old microcode!" She looked away. "Nine or ten years ago, Third Hemisphere tried to persuade her to accept a new implant -- for free. They'd finally discovered a bug in the original microcode -- a minor one, nothing dangerous, but they wanted everyone to start using the later models. They were confident enough about those that they weren't externally programmable anymore.
"She wouldn't accept it. She didn't want a new implant, she didn't want surgery. So they offered to update the microcode, to fix the bug -- and close the trap door in the process, because I think that was also making them nervous. TAP users could never have spoken the code, even if they'd wanted to -- but every consumer device on the planet was starting to put out a flood of infrared. There was always a tiny risk of triggering the modification program by accident.
"I thought she'd had the new microcode for the last ten years. She told me she'd accepted the offer. The records Third Hemisphere supplied to the coroner stated that she had -- and the engineer's report confirmed that."
I said, "But if she'd actually refused it, like she'd refused the new implant -- because she was afraid it might affect her skills with the language ... then Dallaporta's message might have done it all in one hit? Opened the trapdoor, undermined the black box, triggered a massive adrenaline release -- then overwritten the evidence by substituting the version she was meant to have had all along?"
"Yes."
"So who'd know enough to program all that?" Natural Wisdom? The Fountain of Righteousness? Hardly -- though they could always have brought in outside expertise.
Sharp was adamant: "Only one of Third Hemisphere's own software engineers could do it. Someone who'd been involved in the TAP project from the start."
"But they'd have nothing to gain, surely? Why discredit your own work, your own product?"
The product belonged to Third Hemisphere, though -- not to any group of employees.
And people did move on.
I scanned fifteen years' worth of implant manufacturers' publications; they were full of PR releases gloating about heads successfully hunted.
In March 2008, a firm called Cogent Industries had poached a software engineer named Maria Remedios from Third Hemisphere. That in itself proved nothing, of course -- nor did the fact that an earlier article named her as a senior participant in the TAP project.
Cogent did have something to gain, though. They specialized in Virtual Reality hardware -- both immersive neural implants, and headset-based units. Third Hemisphere wasn't so much a direct competitor as the source of an entire antithetical philosophy: VR was sold to publishers and advertizers as the path to unconditional suspension of disbelief; TAP was about questioning everything, analysing everything. The day every VR user spoke TAP, the most ingeniously crafted -- and manipulative -- VR experience would disintegrate into a laughable trick with smoke and mirrors. And if that wasn't exactly an imminent threat, Grace Sharp's death had certainly made it more remote than ever.
They could have chosen Dallaporta by the same means I'd used to find him myself: a search for passionate opponents of TAP who also happened to have a clear view of Grace Sharp's study. And whoever had made contact with him could have claimed to be a member of Natural Wisdom, or some other anti-implant group; he'd hardly have cooperated if he'd known the truth. When they'd told him about the High Court challenge -- no doubt conjuring up images of a whole generation "lost to TAP" -- Grace Sharp's death must have begun to sound like a necessary evil. One old woman, for the sake of all those children. Death by her own obscene technological perversion of language. Nothing more than poetic justice.
And Maria Remedios? Had Third Hemisphere treated her badly, left her holding a grudge -- or had her new employers pressured her into it? Even if she'd had grave second thoughts about TAP -- and recoiled at the prospect of the implant being given to children -- helping to murder an innocent woman seemed like a grotesquely disproportionate response. She could have joined the public campaign against the implant; as one of its creators, the media would have given her all the coverage she desired. And though Dallaporta might have caved in to "moral" arguments offered under false pretences, Remedios could hardly have failed to understand that Cogent's motives were entirely commercial.
Nine tenths of the picture seemed to have fallen perfectly into place -- but it was clear that I was missing something crucial. And too much even of that nine tenths was still pure guesswork. For a start, I had to establish solid evidence of a link between Dallaporta and Cogent Industries -- which was going to be tricky, since he didn't even know it existed, himself.
I checked the faces of the man and woman I'd seen in Dallaporta's apartment against all the trade magazine shots of Cogent's employees.
No match.
I fed the Cogent employee names, along with my seventeen thousand TAP-haters, into the cluster analysis software -- looking for a connection, however tenuous.
There was none.
So much for the easy options.
I sent Dallaporta a message, via a rerouting service, asking if we could "continue our discussion". The real Lydia Stone was ex-directory -- and using a different number than the one she'd given the school would only prove that she was exercising suitable caution.
Three hours later, Dallaporta called me back. He was polite, but very nervous. I said I had some news which would be of interest to him; he didn't actually scream at me to shut up in case the line was being bugged, but his body language made it clear that if I so much as mentioned TAP he'd hang up immediately.
I said, "Can I meet you somewhere? We really need to talk, face to face."
He hesitated. He badly wanted me to vanish from his life -- but he needed to know what my "news" was. Why had I taken an interest in him? One old essay was hardly enough to explain it, so ... how many people in the anti-TAP crusade knew what he'd done? And what did I know about Grace Sharp's death which no one had bothered to tell him?
Of course he was paranoid. The inquest was long over, the laser had been magicked away -- but the fact remained: he'd stood on his balcony on a summer evening and shot a perfect stranger dead. Nothing could ever be the same again.
He said flatly, "Tomorrow night, at the school. Nine o'clock."
I rehearsed the story in my head as I crossed the football field -- which was brightly floodlit for some reason, though there wasn't a soul around. A friend of a friend in a certain law firm had heard that Helen Sharp had discovered something in her mother's computer files -- something which had prompted her to start proceedings to try to gain access to Third Hemisphere's records.
I was sure that Dallaporta would pass the rumour on to his benefactors; the hardest part would be ensuring that he didn't mention "my" name. So long as he remained tight-lipped about his source of information, they'd have to take him seriously.
Helen Sharp was preparing a forged -- paper -- letter from her mother to Third Hemisphere, explicitly stating that she did not wish to accept the microcode update. I was confident that we had enough leverage now to persuade Third Hemisphere to play along, and bury the bait in the appropriate warehouse.
Maria Remedios would know at once what the "evidence" had to be. Cogent, acting on her advice, would try to arrange its disappearance. This time, they'd be caught red-handed.
At least, that was the theory.
Dallapporta had said he'd be in the "Resources Centre" -- which these days apparently meant a large room full of work stations. I'd found a map of the school in an online brochure, so I knew exactly where to go. The door was open, though the lights were out -- and as I approached the threshold I could see that all the machines inside had been switched on and connected to some net service or other. More of Dallaporta's paranoia? Maybe he thought this was an ideal source of interference for the police surveillance teams who were following him everywhere -- though the sound from most of the work stations was turned down to a whisper.
I peered into the greyness of the room, dazzled and distracted by the multitude of images: swarms of tiny red and silver fish weaving through a coral reef; a polychrome computer animation of air flow around some kind of zeppelin; a portrait of a Florentine prince sprouting a speech balloon full of modern Italian; a dead silver-haired twentieth century guru emitting platitudes about the nature of truth. An old music video was playing by the door; the singer droned: "This is the way, step insi-i-ide."
I smiled uneasily at the coincidence and walked into the room -- resisting the urge to shout a greeting, mocking Dallaporta's elaborate "precautions". It seemed far more diplomatic to play along. I stage whispered, "It's me. Where are you?"
No reply.
It was hard to get my eyes accustomed to the darkness with forty or fifty bright screens in view; I had no reason whatsoever to look at any of the images -- but it was remarkably difficult to keep looking away. I walked slowly towards the far end of the room, irritated but prepared not to show it. I called out again, a little louder; there was still no reply.
An animated supernova erupted just ahead of me -- and the sudden blue-white radiance revealed a man slumped in a chair beside the screen. I moved closer, and inspected the body by the light of the dying sun.
Dallaporta had a small-calibre pistol in his hand, and a neat hole in his temple. I put two fingers to his neck; he was certainly dead, but still warm.
I felt a flicker of guilt break through the numbness of shock -- but this wasn't the time to agonize over the way I'd treated him. He'd killed Grace Sharp, and he hadn't been prepared to live with that. If the fear of whatever I'd been about to tell him had been enough to drive him to suicide, he would have done it sooner or later, regardless.
I took out my notepad to call the police.
Then the supernova faded, and a new image took its place.
An apartment building, swept by rain. The camera zoomed in on a figure climbing between two of the balconies. The magnification kept increasing, relentlessly -- and by the time the woman turned and showed her face, it filled the screen.
My stomach tightened. I glanced back to the neat, too-professional hole in Dallaporta's skull, reassessing everything. But ... who could have videoed me? If Cogent's people had known I was on the balcony, why had they walked straight in?
The image changed again. Me, planting one of the phone bugs.
I laughed in disbelief. They'd all but slaughtered this man in front of my eyes -- and now they were trying to blackmail me into silence with a couple of petty misdemeanours?
"There are small traces of your skin under his fingernails." The voice came from a metre behind me; I started, but I didn't actually jump. "Not enough for him to have left a mark on you, but enough for DNA analysis."
I turned around slowly. The man was about my age, and only a little taller. He wasn't pointing a gun at me, but he looked suspiciously relaxed.
"The police will find out that Helen Sharp hired you -- but they'll have no grounds for a warrant to compel you to supply them with tissue samples. Not if they don't see this." He gestured at the screen.
I said, "And why would they imagine I'd want to fake this man's suicide? Breaking into his apartment proves nothing -- "
"I think that depends on whether someone tips them off about the hundred thousand dollars in your Swiss bank account. Grace's close-knit linguistic community must have done a little whip-around, and bought themselves some justice for the man with the <<death>> word."
That shut me up. If the account really existed ... that was breathtaking. Had Cogent been watching me all along, setting this up?
He smiled. "If you're good, you can keep the hundred grand, of course. No tax; the whole thing's organized beautifully through a holding company in Macao."
I didn't have the presence of mind even to be tempted; I was still trying to come to terms with the whole Byzantine scheme.
I said, "Forget it." I walked straight past him, towards the doorway. I reached it, heart racing, then turned and looked back; I couldn't see him anymore, but I didn't think he'd moved a centimetre. Killing me would create too many problems, too many holes in their beautifully scripted VR experience -- and the odds were stacked against me even if I did go straight to the police.
I said, "So what did you expect me to tell Helen Sharp? 'Screw your mother, the case is closed -- and please don't ask any questions, I'm late for my flight to Macao'?"
"You'll think of something. Believe me, you don't want to fight us."
I laughed angrily. "One pissy little VR company, and you think you can pull all the strings?"
The man said, "I'm not working for Cogent. They have no idea you've even taken an interest in them."
I peered into the darkness between the rows of screens. "Some VR industry consortium, then." For some reason I'd started shaking; I think it was rage. "You're still not above the law."
"Oh, there's more to life than Virtual Reality." He sounded amused.
"Yeah? Who, then?"
There was silence for a while, then I could see him approaching. "I can't tell you that. But there are some people you can meet -- if you want to -- who might help you put your doubts to rest."
"Who?"
"Maria Remedios. And her daughter."
"I thought you didn't work for Cogent -- "
"She works for Cogent. I don't. Though you could say it's my job to watch over them both."
The further we drove from Dallaporta's corpse, the more compromised I knew I'd become -- but I couldn't walk away from a chance to learn what it was I'd missed all along. Even if the revelation was intended to guarantee my silence.
"Remedios was one of the first volunteers to test the TAP implant," the man explained casually. "First she'd helped design it -- and then she got to experience the results first hand. I think she must have found the reality exhilarating, in a lot of ways -- but very frustrating, too."
"Why frustrating?"
"Even with neural hardware, learning an exotic new language is always difficult. For an adult."
I didn't reply. He continued, "She managed to find a good neurosurgeon willing to give her daughter the implant. Not here, though. Overseas. Which simplified things, really -- it was easier to turn a blind eye."
That chilled me. "And you let her go ahead and do it? Just so you could see the results?"
He laughed. "Well, not me personally. But that was the general idea."
And the results? I thought back to some of the more pessimistic technical papers I'd read on the subject. Maybe natural languages -- which had co-evolved with human intelligence -- were crucial for the early stages of intellectual development ... and even if relatively "artificial" latecomers like sign made perfect substitutes, maybe TAP was just too different to perform the role of organizing the neural structures which made higher thinking possible. And maybe the fact that so much of the language was encoded in the chip, instead of the brain, meant that vital conceptual networks were missing -- or at least, inaccessible to other regions of the cerebral cortex which needed them in order to mature.
It still made no sense, though. If the daughter was living proof that the implant would do unspeakable damage to the infant brain, why not just publicize that fact? Why had Grace Sharp died to win a court case which could have been won by simply disclosing the truth?
Maria Remedios lived in a modestly comfortable house on the north shore. My escort had phoned ahead; she was expecting us. As I followed him down the hallway, she met my eyes; there was unconcealed shame in her steady gaze -- but a strange, almost proud defiance behind it. I looked away, confused. If she'd crippled her own child with the TAP implant, no wonder she'd left Third Hemisphere -- but why was she so beholden to Dallaporta's killers that she'd let them use her to manipulate Cogent? Had they threatened to imprison her? To put her child in an institution?
We ended up in the living room, but Remedios didn't invite us to take a seat. The man said, "So, what's she been up to? Still spending every last waking moment on the nets?"
Remedios shot him a poisonous look, and didn't bother replying. I thought he was being cruelly sarcastic. Then he turned to me and explained, "Incoming data only, I'm afraid. We wouldn't want her airing her grievances to the world."
Remedios left the room. I heard her say, "Jane? Ms O'Connor's here." Then she returned, with a young girl in blue-and-white striped pyjamas, maybe eight years old.
Jane greeted me and shook my hand solemnly -- or mock-solemnly. One look at her knowing grey eyes, and I knew I'd made exactly the wrong guess about the implant's effects.
"I was hoping I'd be allowed to meet you," she said. "Uncle Daniel's been complaining about you for weeks." She glanced at the man, without obvious malice -- more like a chess player regarding a formidable adversary. "And he doesn't often let me have visitors."
I didn't know what to say. "Uncle Daniel" interjected helpfully, "I think Ms O'Connor is still in the dark, Jane. She doesn't understand -- "
"Why anyone would want to keep me prisoner? Why anyone would go to so much trouble to keep other children from growing up with TAP?" Her tone went beyond precocity; she didn't come across as some child actor mouthing an adult's lines. Every word simply negated the implications her appearance would normally have conveyed.
And her bluntness was unnerving, but it cut through my own diplomatic hesitancy. I said, "That's right. I don't understand."
Jane smiled calmly. I don't believe she was resigned to her situation -- but she was patient. Very patient.
She said, "With the implant, you can play words -- or scan them. Experience them, blindly -- or understand them, completely. Uncle Daniel's not a big fan of understanding, though. He thinks there are certain words which should be played and not scanned."
"What kind of words?"
She raised one hand, palm towards me. It was an ironic gesture; she must have known I was oblivious to IR.
"If I play this word ... I feel a boundless sense of loyalty and pride towards my team ... my city ... my State ... my nation!" Her face shone with fervent, agonized, almost hysterical joy; she looked like nothing so much as one of the flag-waving school girls they'd whipped into a patriotic frenzy as ornamentation for the 2000 Olympics. "But if I scan it ... " Her expression faded into one of faint amusement -- as if someone had just tried to dupe her with a very old, and very obvious, scam.
"This word plays as what many religions call 'faith'." Her face was radiant, but tranquil now. "The peace that defies understanding." She smiled apologetically. "Except, of course, it doesn't. Scan it, and the mechanics are transparent: one foot down hard on an entrained neurochemical feel-good pedal -- with cognitive, aesthetic, and cultural echoes linked to the context in which the training was acquired."
I glanced at Remedios; there were silent tears moving down her face. They wouldn't lock up the mother, or institutionalise the daughter. They'd kill this child, if they had to. That was the only reason she'd helped them program the death of Grace Sharp.
"Now, this is what the Buddhists call 'enlightenment'." Jane closed her eyes and smiled serenely. "Similar raw pharmacology, but the higher-level components are different. There's a kind of heavily self-affirming cognitive myopia: every mental tool which could expose the true nature of the state is explicitly negated."
I thought of James, lost in wordless tranquillity. The package he'd swallowed whole, the mind virus fine-tuned by centuries of evolution, declared: Language is dangerous, language deceives you ... because language could have shown him the way out of the hole he'd dug for himself.
"And this is ... sexual love, desire? Call it what you like, but if you scan it -- "
Something cut her short. Maybe it was a look from her mother. Or maybe it was the expression on my face.
Jane continued smoothly, "There are others. I won't list them all -- but growing up with the implant makes them obvious. And Uncle Daniel's friends don't believe that a subculture with that knowledge would be ... conducive to their idea of social cohesion. They feel very strongly about that." She turned to face him -- and her expression now contained more pity than anything else. "And I do understand. Because I've found the word for their affliction, too. I've found the word for the love of power."
By the time I got home it was almost midnight. Mick's room was in darkness, but he was still playing the game; I sat down beside him and removed the headset gently, then reached over and logged him off.
He opened his mouth to apologize, or invent some excuse. I said, "Just shut up and listen."
"What happened? I was worried." I hadn't told him everything -- but he knew I'd gone to meet someone connected with Grace Sharp's death.
I tried to speak calmly. "I've screwed up the case. Badly. I've made some stupid mistakes, and now I'm going to have to drop it. Okay? That's all I can tell you. And we're not going to talk about it again."
He stared at me, incredulous. "Why? What did you do?"
I shook my head. "I said, we're not going to talk about it."
He started blinking away tears. I took him in my arms; he didn't fight me, but he said angrily, "I don't believe you!"
I said, "Sssh."
Later, I lay on my bed in the dark, rolling between my thumb and forefinger the smooth cold object, like a small ceramic bead, which Jane Remedios had slipped into my hand.
If she'd managed to copy her implant, this chip would encode her entire TAP vocabulary. And to an adult it would be useless -- but a newborn child who started with the knowledge it had taken her eight years to acquire might surpass her in half that time.
They'd be watching me closely -- but they couldn't be watching everyone. I believed I could pass the chip on to someone willing to use it, if I was careful.
So I lay in the dark, and tried to decide.
Between the silence of power and mystification, the unearned suspension of disbelief, the way things had always been -- and the torrent of understanding which would sweep it all away.

Greg Egan is an Australian bestselling science fiction writer and a retired programmer born on 20th August 1961. Egan graduated from the University of Western Australia with a Bachelor degree in mathematics. In 1983 he released his first writing, and most of his early writing featured strong elements of supernatural horror. His genre of specialty is hardcore science fiction genres with quantum ontology and mathematics themes inclusive of the essence of consciousness. In addition to the above themes he also specializes in other topics such as posthumanism, genetics, sexuality, simulated reality, artificial intelligence, mind uploading and some perception of rational realism being greater than religion. He is also popularly known for the way he deals with complicated technical things such as epistemology and inventive physics in precisely defined manner.
Awards
Greg Egan has won several awards including Hugo Award, and eight of his published novels have been shortlisted several times for the same award. Other awards claimed by the Australian author include John W C Memorial Award and Kurd Lebowitz’s-Preis Award (2000) for the novel Distress for being the best Fiction novel of the year. Greg Egan is also a multiple winner of the Seiun Award. Additionally, his novel Teranesia was listed the winner of the Ditmar Award in the year 2000 for being the best book of the year, unfortunately, the author rejected the award.
Books Written
Greg Egan writings include nine published novels; the first book Unusual Angle published in 1983, followed by Quarantine of 1992. Zendegi is the last on the book list and was released in 2010. In 2011, Clockwork Rocket was published and was the first book of the orthogonal trilogy. In 2012, The Eternal Flame was released as a sequel to the series and in 2013; The Arrows of Time was released as the last book in the trilogy.

Riemannian 10j Symbols & Asymptotic of 10j Symbols in conjunction with Dan Christensen.
The novel Axiomatic inspired the filming of a short movie that commenced airing in 2015.
Description of 2 Early Books
Quarantine: novel themed in hard science fiction genre and focuses within a detective fiction framework. The book explores the impacts of Copenhagen view on Quantum Mechanics which the author admits that the concept was chosen for its entertainment value rather than its likelihood probability of being true. The novel storyline is set shortly( 2034-2080) when the solar system has been covered by an impermeable dome known as the Bubble. This bubble-like shield permits no light to enter through the solar system, and as a consequence, the light from neither the star nor the stars can be seen in the sky.
In the novel, constant human observation of the universe resulted in a decrease of potentiality and diversity of the universe. For example, by making the world uninhabitable by beings, those have always relied on the stars as their home. The novel suggests that the bubble was formed to act as a barrier to prevent humans from causing massive destruction to the entire of the universe by observation processes.
The protagonist is tasked with a case to investigate the case of a missing lady from the psychiatric institute which lands him to Ensemble- an organization developing a wave function to collapse the Eigenstate mod. The Eigenstate mod makes a person to stop being an observer “via” quantum mechanics and consequently exist in a superposition of several states simultaneously.
The story narrator/protagonist is forcefully put under control of Ensemble through a force installment of a “Loyalty mod” which makes him loyal to the organization. The narrator later meets the “Canon” a group of other Ensemble Loyalists who have secretly discovered that their “masters” have failed to specify what the canon should be loyal to, except the organization name itself. Now working with the canon, the narrator successfully manages to steal the Eigenstate mod.
The hope of the entire humanity relies on one rogue member of the canon who infects the whole humanity with the software to bring freedom to the rest of the humanity. In a way, the author tries to put out the idea of what we become when we try to change ourselves.
Permutation City is the second book in the Subjective Cosmology series by Greg Egan. It is a science fiction book that describes the events that take place in the mid 21st century when medical and computer technology have advanced such that it is possible to scan a human brain and create a copy of a brain that runs as a copy of the original person. However, due to its high nature, this process is almost inaccessible to some people. An insurance salesperson Paul Durham provides protection to copies produced. In 2050, he begins to promise immortality to the copies in a virtual world known as Permutation City. This world will have limitless supplies and will never be shut down. In this way, Paul bases his claim on a theory that the entire universe is made from arbitrary bits of info drawn from distinct places and time and placed in an organized manner by an observer. Through his theory, he claims that this would be achievable mainly through a computer program.
With the aid of Maria Deluca, a software programmer, Paul Durham manages to create Permutation City with success, and after 7000 years he manages to reawaken Maria’s copy. The duo manages to discover that the planet they created has formed intelligent life form- insect-like organisms. They try to approach the creatures but the creatures do not agree with their story of having been built by a computer program. Permutation City, therefore, is at risk when a copy of the universe begins to reprobate the permutation city computer program and redesign it in relation to Lambertian theory of life. Now Durham must work against time to create a copy of the Permutation city to save the city and the residents in an almost impossible ordeal.
Surprisingly reclusive, camera-shy, and a non-participant in science fiction conferences, Greg Egan is a quinquagenarian Australian author with an exclusive focus on the science fiction and fantasy genres. His work encompasses various aspects including but not limited to metaphysical science like ontology, sexual orientation, intelligent machines, philosophical aspects of naturalism and consciousness and post-humanist, simulation hypothesis, and mind uploading.
Greg Egan is the kind of writer who prefers to keep quiet and let his accomplishments speak and front for him. The bibliography of Egan is extensive and comprehensive. His work ranges from series of books (trilogies) to standalone books and novellas to collections to anthologies to tens of short stories. What’s more, he has also teamed up with other famed writers and co-authored academic papers.
Greg Egan: Private Life
You might not know how Greg Egan looks like because there are no archived photos of him. However, read on about his personal life and you will be content with who this man of letters is. Meet Greg Egan. His birth name is Gregory Mark Egan. Incidentally, he has truncated his first name as Greg and adopted his family name in his work. Egan was born on August 201, 1961 in Perth, located in Western Australia. He is an alumnus of the University of Western Australia; he graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from the said institution in 1982. Other than writing science fiction, Egan is also a computer programmer.
Greg Egan: Formative Years and Early Publishing Career
Greg Egan, whose niche is mostly science fiction, debuted in 1983 with the book titled An Unusual Angle. He has been publishing consistently since then, albeit within the confines of both science fiction and fantasy.
The Clockwork Rocket: A Summary
Greg Egan has authored two trilogies namely Subjective Cosmology Cycle and Orthogonal; the latter has an omnibus. Incidentally, these two trilogies have all the hallmarks of a series. However, Egan discredits the opinion that it is a series. Even then he accepts that, thematically, it resembles a series. Most sources have shelved it as a series.
Among the most famous works of Greg Egan is the Orthogonal. The first book in the Orthogonal “series” of books was published in June 2011 titled The Clockwork Rocket. This book is shelved as science fiction. Yalda, who is a female character, is the featured protagonist in the Clockwork Rocket penned by Greg Egan.
The book is set in a planet located in a far-flung universe where the fauna and flora contained therein are different– biologically, physically, socially, and the law of physics– from those in planet Earth. The most notable aspect is that, unlike Earth, there is neither sunlight nor natural heat in that universe; this prompts them to produce their own light and heat. Unlike earthlings, the inhabitants of that universe also give birth through binary fusion.
Egan traces Yalda’s life from her formative years to her position as a scholar. A similarity between that universe and Earth is the possibility of an impending doom. The turning point in this book is the odd meteors (Hurtlers) which Yalda has sighted hurtling towards their planet. It is obvious that their planetary system and their world in particular are facing a dangerous situation. The inhabitants are angling for saving their world; however, the problem is Yalda’s civilization lack the wherewithal to tackle the issue. In their alien wisdom, their best bet is a super-fast spacecraft bound for other advanced civilizations out there in the cosmos. The space trip will transcend generations but their subsequent descendants will acquire scientific knowledge and go back to save the other aliens.
The Eternal Flame: A Summary
The second book in the Orthogonal “series” published by Greg Egan was published in August 2012 titled The Eternal Flame and it is classified under the science fiction. This book is a continuation on the aspects contained in the Clockwork Rocket. The featured protagonists are Tamara and Carlo, an astronomer and biologist, respectively.
Peerless, which is the name of the spacecraft carrying the astronomers look for advanced extraterrestrial know-how, can pass through the cosmos within a time-frame transcending generations and still manage to go back just two years later. But the alien astronomers overlooked two things–the fuel needed for the space voyage and the overpopulation in the spacecraft. These two aspects overlooked put a damper in their mission.
Greg Egan: Awards Won and Nominations
Sci-fi author Greg Egan has won several awards and been nominated for other impressive ones. In 1995, Greg Egan won the John W Campbell Memorial Award, under the Best Novel category, by virtue of his 1993 book titled Permutation City; this book was also nominated for the Philip K Dick Award under the Best Book section. In 1995, the 1994 short story titled Cocoon was nominated for the Hugo Award under the Best Novelette category.
In 1996, a short story titled Luminous which Greg Egan had published in 1995 was nominated for the Hugo Award in the Best Novelette group; furthermore, the short story was, in 1999, nominated for the British Fantasy Society awards in the Best Collection group. Oceanic is a short story published by Egan in 1998 and, in 1999, it won him a Hugo Award in the Best Novella category.
The Planck Dive, which was published in 1998, made Greg Egan a nominee for the Hugo Award in the Best Novelette category. The 1999 short story titled Border Guards also featured among the Hugo Award nominees in the Best Novelette category. Another work which has also been nominated for a notable award is the 2002 standalone novel titled Schild’s Ladder; this was among the nominees for the Prometheus Award, in the Best Novel category.
Greg Egan: Current Life and Opinion Articles
Needless to say, little is known about the personal life of Greg Egan. This is because he has never appeared in the news, stays away from conferences involving science fiction writers, and gives scant credence to book signings. However, according to his opinion articles, it is known that he was living in Perth by 2005, practices vegetarianism, and has been actively lobbying against the immigration detention policy practiced by the Australian Government.

As with all reviews on this website, our goal is not to provide a complete overview of the book; rather, it is to examine how the book relates to the meaning of life.
Permutation City is described as a post-cyberpunk and/or hard science fiction novel that was released in 1994 and written by Greg Egan. The book explores topics such as the nature of life—the difference between artificial and biological life, and what will happen once we're able to make Copies of ourselves that could potentially live forever. Other topics explored include god (the need, or lack thereof for a creator), the meaning of life, and the origin of the universe.
On those notes, in this blog, we'll primarily focus on parts of the book that discuss the meaning of life.
What happens when you can essentially copy yourself, make an exact replica in the digital world? Is it still "you," do you continue, or does the Copy become a different individual? Is the Copy even alive? After all, if one can computationally model fusion power, digestion and metabolism, etc., they are just models and there is no consumption or output produced. So as Egan would ask, if you model the human brain mathematically, does any thought occur? Egan's character, Paul Durham, would go on to ponder, There were questions about the nature of this shared condition which the existence of Copies illuminated more starkly than anything which had come before them. Questions which needed to be explored, before the human race could confidently begin to bequeath its culture, its memories, its purpose and identity, to its successors. Copies, again, are digital representations of human beings after they have been scanned. To answer the question, one of the characters, Maria, would reason that Copies are intelligent, as to whether or not they are the same person, there is no right or wrong answer, it is just a matter of semantics, not a question of truth.
Egan also creates "The Church of the God Who Makes No Difference." Back in April, we blogged about Kurt Vonnegut's book, The Sirens of Titan. In Vonnegut's book, there is "The Church of God the Utterly Indifferent." Egan's church, The Church of the God Who Makes No Difference, is very similar, and is about a god that exists but does not make itself know to the beings in the universe and does not interfere with the natural order of the universe. One has to wonder if Egan was paying some tribute to Vonnegut here. Vonnegut's fictional take on religion takes a bit of a harsher tone, stating: there is nothing more cruel, more dangerous, more blasphemous that a man can do than to believe that—that luck, good or bad, is the hand of God! Luck, good or bad is not the hand of God. Luck is the way the wind swirls and the dust settles eons after God has passed by. Note the word "dust" here, as this is an important concept in Egan's book.
Maria's mom, Francesca, would go on to say: Even though I know God makes no difference. And if God is the reason for everything, then God includes the urge to use the word God. So whenever I gain some strength, or comfort, or meaning, from that urge, then God is the source of that strength, that comfort, that meaning. And if God—while making no difference—helps me to accept what's going to happen to me, why should that make you sad? This results from Francesca arguing with Maria on the topic of getting scanned to become a Copy. Maria just can't wrap her head around why anyone would want to die, and Francesca has no interest in continuing life beyond its natural cycle.
What is the dust theory? Dust theory postulates that all possible realities not only exist, but are equally real and mathematically self-consistence. Furthermore, these realities spontaneously emerge from that mathematical self-consistency. Max Tegmark also quoted the dust theory in his creation of the mathematical universe theory.
What does this have to do with the meaning of life? Step back for a few minutes and read Stephen Hawking's chilling take on the subject if you haven't already. If all realities, if all lives we could live, have lived, exist within the multiverse, can life have any real meaning? All lives in the multiverse (all other "yous") are as equally valid as the one you're living now. In one universe you're the sultan of Slowjamastan, in another you hold the record for organizing the largest Smurf meeting in the world (and you did it during COVID), and still in another everything appears to be exactly the same as it is now, except instead of having 150,000 hairs on your head, you have 149,999. But, at least you're not bald—yet. Hawking's answer is ironically—unequivocally, yes! Life still has meaning in the multiverse. Sure, you're still just a hollow being with no soul, no ghost in the machine, just an automaton imitating an autonomous being. But that is okay, just because free will doesn't exist, doesn't mean you can't find meaning in this universe. The meaning is found in this universe being personal to you, and you alone (not your copies in the multiverse).
Back to dust theory. Paul's believes that when a Copy dies, is turned off, or deleted, consciousness still persists. Having done a number of experiments on himself, Paul attests to have experienced this—experienced this 20+ times! That is, he is currently Copy number 23 or 24 ... or something like that. Who's really counting anyway? Doubly so if you're slightly psychotic. He is so sure his theory is correct, that he builds a virtual reality universe (the TVC universe) using cellular automaton, then kills himself. As Maria would think to herself after finding the body: Durham had believed that his Copy had achieved immortality—and provided the dust hypothesis. The whole purpose of his own life had been fulfilled by the project's completion. What had she expected him to do, after that? Carry on selling insurance?
What Maria didn't realize at the time is that when Paul created the virtual world, a world that could last for eternity, a Copy of her would be awakened in that reality. When Maria was awakened, she was angry at Paul and thought the following: Francesca was gone. Aden was gone. All her friends. All the people she'd ever met: in the flesh, on the networks. All the people she'd ever heard of: musicians and writers, philosophers and movie stars, politicians and serial killers. As Egan would clarify, They weren't even dead; their lives didn't lie in her past, whole and comprehensible. They were scattered around her like dust: meaningless, disconnected.
Later Maria would go on to reason that despite her anger, being able to interact with the Autoverse, and a new species that she was responsible, in part, for creating, could give her new life some meaning.
Maria, like Paul, a few other rich people, and a couple of Solipsist Nation stowaways are condemned to eternal life; and what does one do if condemned to live forever? Two stowaways that cannot interact with anyone else, only each other, face that dilemma. If there are only a finite number of possibilities, possible lives to live, then living forever eventually becomes meaningless. Peer (one of the stowaways) reached such a conclusion, Immortality would have been meaningless, trapped in a "machine" with a finite number of possible states in a finite time he would have exhausted the list of every possible thing he could be. Only the promise of eternal growth made sense of eternal life.
For Peer, he'd spend centuries studying physics, or making tables, or drawing beetles—and in doing so, he found fulfillment, found happiness. He programmed himself to do so, to be happy no matter what he was doing and to eventually move on to find something new to give fulfillment and to give his life meaning. From the narrator, The random stuttering from pretext to pretext which granted his existence its various meanings. Eventually, Peer realized that he would run out of things to do, and eventually start to repeat things over and over again. So he gives up, and decides that all the lives he lived could now become a nation of people. The Solipsist Nation, could become a nation on its own with more than one person—his happiness would become the happiness of his parthenogenetic offspring (of sorts) and through that happiness he could live forever, not as an individual, but as a nation of people.
Peer: We'll leave this place. Launch a universe of our own. It's what we should have done long ago.
.
.
.
Kate: We'll create them? Run the ontogenesis software? Adam-and-Eve a new world of our own?
Peer: No. I'll become them. A thousand, a million. Whatever you want. I'll become the Solipsist Nation.
Kate: Become? What does that mean? You don't have to become a nation. You can build it with me—then sit back and watch it grow."
Peer: What have I become, already? An endless series of people—all happy for their own private reasons Linked together by the faintest thread of memory. Why keep them spread out in time? Why go on pretending that there's one 'real' person, enduring through all those arbitrary changes?
.
.
.
Kate: You can't become the Solipsist Nation. That's nonsense....
Peer: They'll be happy, won't they? From time to time? For their own strange reasons?
Kate: Yes, But—
Peer: That's all I am, now. That's all that defines me. So when they're happy, they'll be me.
Maria would also ponder if living forever was the right pathway forward. After all, she struggled with coming to terms with her mother's death and unwillingness to become a Copy so many years ago. She thinks, Maybe the time came, for everyone, when there was no way forward, no other choice but death. Maybe the Lambertians were right, maybe "infinity" was meaningless ... and "immortality" was a mirage no human should aspire to.
The Lambertians were the species Maria was partially responsible for creating. Evolution in the Autoverse did the rest. Once the Lambertians reached a certain level of intelligence and number of individuals, the Autoverse began to overtake Permutation City. Though the members of Permutation City try to talk to the Lambertians and tell them that they were their creators, The Lambertians do not believe the idea was logical. So the intelligent design story is dismissed. Consequently, the TVC universe begins to erase Permutation City, as the idea of needing a creator is neither needed nor logically self-consistent. Eventually, most members of Permutation City would be able to escape to a new TVC universe that does not contain the Autoverse.
Paul decides to opt out, to end his life again, to end the cycle. But Maria talks to him, wanting him to continue, so Paul reprograms himself not to want to opt out anymore, to continue living with Maria. Onward and upward. This, of course, got Maria thinking if Paul reprogrammed himself, how much of the man she'd known remained? Where does one draw the line with self-transformation, when does one change so much that they are no longer the same person they once were? Of course, people are not static things, they are self-conscious processes unfolding in space and time.
Overall, if you're a fan of science fiction, Permutation City is a must read, if not only for the fact that it explores our future, the importance of meaning in that future, new theories, god, and immortality. If you read the book, let us know what you thought and what we missed by commenting below.

Novels
Note: Some third-party bibliographies have incorrectly described three of my novels as being part of “The Subjective Cosmology Cycle”. In fact, there is no such thing. The description of these three books as belonging to some kind of “series” is a misunderstanding; I've mentioned in interviews that they have some thematic similarities with each other that I noticed in retrospect, but they were certainly never conceived of, nor published as, a series.

I'm what you might call a physics groupie. I hang out with physicists on a regular basis and I read the physics and astronomy articles in Science News first. I have to admit, though, that the last formal physics course I took was way back in high school, during the dark ages, when it was still possible to think of the atom as a miniature solar system. I mention this by way of admitting that I may not be the ideal reviewer for Greg Egan's fine new novel The Clockwork Rocket, the first volume in his Orthogonal series. I mean, forget about Clarke, forget about Clement, heck, forget about Robert L. Forward and Stephen Baxter; this is real hard science fiction, multiple diagrams, equations and all. Egan doesn't just play with the net up, to quote Gregory Benford; he teaches you the physics of tennis while he's at it.
The Clockwork Rocket takes place in a different universe than ours, one with decidedly different physics. To quote Egan's website, it is a Riemannian universe, one described by "geometries that we'd normally think of as kinds of space, whether flat or curved, where all the dimensions are treated as fundamentally the same. In contrast, in the Lorentzian space-time of our own universe, one of the dimensions, time, is singled out for special treatment." If you want to know exactly how the physics of a Riemannian universe might work, Egan spells it out in detail in the text, on his website, and in appendices at the back of the book. More immediately to the point, however, the novel concerns a group of alien scientists, who live in the Riemannian universe that Egan has created and who must figure out the relevant physics for themselves in order to preserve their species from extinction.
Egan doesn't immediately announce what he's doing at the beginning of the book, although the jacket copy gives away some of the more spectacular differences between his universe and ours. This is, for example, a universe where light does not have one speed and the stars in the sky all have multicolored trails because the various spectra reach the viewer over a period of years. It is a universe where "the creation of light is accompanied by the creation of kinetic energy," rendering all matter inherently less stable; a person who works too hard at physical labor may quite literally burst into flame and a meteor strike on a large planet could turn it into a second sun. It is also a universe where a spaceship traveling at near light speed can, from the viewpoint of several generations of crewmembers, return to its home planet hundreds of years after it was launched, though only a few years will have passed for those who stayed behind. Egan has extrapolated dozens of other large and small differences between our Lorentzian universe and his Riemannian one, concerning everything from how life might evolve and metabolize raw materials, to how a rocket engine would work, to how two materials in close proximity might wear on each other, all given this radically different physics.
The story concerns an intelligent alien species who are in some ways very different from us, but in other ways quite similar. Protean in form, they are able to sprout arms and legs in a variety of different combinations as needed. With training, they can learn to produce images, even writing on their bodies and absorbing those images from each other through close contact. They have two sexes, but the female of the species reproduces by splitting into four parts, essentially dying as a person to produce offspring. Children tend to be born in paired couples who then go on to reproduce together themselves, but it occasionally happens that an odd number of children are born or one of a pair dies. The resulting solo is often considered strange, a sort of pervert, and is pressured to pair up with another solo of the opposite sex. Women are larger and stronger, but men of necessity do the bulk of both the long-term planning and the childcare. In a sense, although nearly every woman's life is cut short by reproduction, it's mostly just men who die. As one might imagine, the existence of hollin, a medication that can defer women's reproduction almost indefinitely, is controversial, considered quite literally a life saver by women who want more out of existence than just reproduction, but viewed as something akin to blasphemy by (generally) male conservatives. Given the form of reproduction Egan has postulated, hollin is a necessary element in the text for a variety of plot-driven reasons, but the sometimes violent male reaction against it also signals the author's concern with our society’s current debate over abortion and birth control. This in turn serves as an avenue of engagement with the text for the audience; even creatures as strange as these have concerns that parallel our own, both literally and emotionally.
As the book opens, society is in the throes of an industrial revolution. A variety of purely mechanical, clockwork technologies have been created, but there is nothing comparable to workable electricity. Yalda, Egan's protagonist, is a solo, and worse yet a solo female with no interest in reproduction, who'd rather discover how machines work than farm. Her father, a relatively enlightened sort, encourages her to go to school where she blossoms, despite gaining a reputation as an oddball, and is eventually sent on to university. There she finds a complex and exciting world of new ideas and changing customs, not to mention some very real danger. Yalda, who remains somewhat naïve and unworldly, is taken under her wing by an older scientist who is herself a solo, and she is introduced to other well-educated women at the proto-feminist Solo Club. Although it is illegal, these women take hollin to prolong their life spans by staving off spontaneous asexual reproduction, which can occur under crowded urban conditions. Solos are the subject of considerable prejudice and when the son of a civic leader attacks Yalda she is imprisoned and tortured for fighting back. Radicalized by this experience, Yalda studies hard, develops her own revolutionary theory of rotational physics, resists attacks on her work by hidebound colleagues, and finally gains a university teaching position and the respect of a new generation of scientists. Her growing concern, however, is with the Hurtlers, fast moving meteors which have begun to speed through the solar system in increasing numbers, and which, Yalda realizes, herald an impending catastrophe for her world. The daring plan that Yalda and other scientists come up with to buy the time with which to find a solution to this problem is to build a giant rocket that can approach the speed of red light, the slowest form of light in the universe. They will return home only a few years later, from their world's perspective, but generations will have passed on the ship, during which the crew may invent the science to save their world.
As a reviewer I have on more than one occasion used some variation on the phrase "This novel is not for everyone," and this is certainly the case for The Clockwork Rocket. It's hard to imagine any other writer in our field feeling comfortable stopping his or her narrative periodically, heck, frequently, for physics lectures, and this may derail readers whose sense of wonder isn't satisfied by such things. When Egan does this, however, the story takes on some of the feel of a Platonic dialogue, with Socrates deducing a wide range of brilliant ideas and the other characters periodically answering back, "Well, so it would seem," or "This cannot be disputed." In some ways Egan's method is reminiscent of the clumsy infodumps found in science fiction of the Gernsback era, but there's a key difference here. Unlike the typical Gernsback-era writer, Egan knows exactly what he's doing. The characters who lectured on and on in the early Amazing stories are mostly telling each other what they already know in the most clumsy manner imaginable. Their purpose, transparently, is to let the reader in on some super-scientific idea of the author's, but they're invariably talking nonsense. Egan's characters, however, given the scientific premise that underpins the novel, appear to make sense, though what they're saying may be hard to follow. In fact they come very close, I think, to recreating the kind of dialogues that actually occur between brilliant scientists. One can imagine Einstein conversing with his students in this manner as they walk the tree-lined sidewalks of Princeton, changing the world as they go. Yes, these scientific discussions stop the action of the story dead in its tracks and they violate all traditional rules of good narrative, but, if you can follow the science, even a little bit, even though it’s not real, oh my!
Many science fiction writers have used the generation starship trope, so many that at least one scholarly book has been published on the subject. The hollowed-out asteroid as generation ship is also nothing new, but I doubt that anyone has ever attempted to launch what is essentially a hollowed-out asteroid (actually in this case an entire mountain) from the surface of a planet. In our universe such a thing would be entirely impossible, of course, but Egan's Riemannian physics makes it feasible. Egan also devotes a great deal of space to describing how his starship might be constructed, again including technical details, but also paying attention to the practical needs of his crew, needs that are in some ways identical to but in other ways differ significantly from our own. This detail exemplifies one of The Clockwork Rocket's greatest strengths. On one level we have all of the sophisticated and abstract scientific data describing Yalda's universe and its many (from our point of view) oddities, but on another level, we have a great deal of attention paid to more visceral matters. What kind of closed environment will allow aliens with their particular nutritional needs to produce enough food to survive? How exactly will they limit reproduction on board the starship? How do you run a sophisticated machine with millions, perhaps billions of cogs and springs, but no practical understanding of electricity (and, yes, we have a small steampunk vibe going here too, though it's less than you might expect).
In The Clockwork Rocket Greg Egan has brought together a number of science fiction’s standard tropes—the depiction of a truly alien species, the creation of a universe with physics different from our own, the bildungsroman of a genius inventor, a race to avoid the end of the world, and a generation starship—in a way that is both novel and satisfying. The physics is decidedly heavy and the dozens of diagrams and equations will be off-putting to some readers, but others, I'm sure, will find them endlessly engaging and I can easily imagine the development of a blog or two devoted to arguing over their intricacies. Beyond the science, however, as is often the case with Egan's best work, this is also a gripping and, I suppose the appropriate word is "human" story. We come to care deeply about Yalda, an ugly duckling who, if she never becomes a swan, nonetheless triumphs beyond all expectations. We also care about her friends, her society and, indeed, her entire fascinating, down the rabbit hole Riemannian universe. Book two of Orthogonal will presumably be dominated by the generation starship trope, but Egan has done the ground work necessary to set up any number of engaging variations on the scientific discoveries he's already revealed and surely still more surprises are in store. I don’t know whether or not I'll be able to handle the physics, but I do look forward to them.

2013 novel by Greg Egan
The Arrows of Time is a hard science-fiction novel by Australian author Greg Egan and the third part of the Orthogonal trilogy. The novel was published by Gollancz on 21 November 2013 with a cover art by Greg Egan and by Night Shade Books on 5 August 2014 with a cover art by Cody Tilson.[1][2][3] The novel describes the return journey of the generation ship Peerless, which has been launched in The Clockwork Rocket[4][5][6] and traveled into the void in The Eternal Flame,[7][8][9] and the reverse enabling the construction of a device to receive messages from the own future as well as the journey to a world where time runs in reverse. The universe of the novel is therefore based on a Riemannian instead of a Lorentzian manifold (which describes our own universe, where time only flows in one direction or the corresponding region being hidden behind an event horizon otherwise), changing the rules of physics. The details are described by Greg Egan on his website.[10]
Plot
[edit]
Valeria watches the launch of the Peerless from the home world, waiting for its return. Six generations later, a suitable time has come to turn the ship around. A solution for the home world is in sight. But the crew is split into two fractions, one wanting to continue the mission and one instead wanting to find a new home in the orthogonal cluster. After a vote is held, the Peerless turns around and (with an inverted arrow of time) begins the long voyage home. Agata talks with Medoro about the new possibility of using the inverted light of orthogonal stars to send messages back in time, but a discussion only parts the Peerless further. After a vote in favor of the system, a bomb kills the group responsible for its construction, including Medoro. Some strongly against it like Ramiro are imprisoned. Meanwhile, the discovery of an inhabitable world called Esilio in the orthogonal cluster seems to pose a solution to the conflict, but time is running backwards there. A journey to Esilio is planned. Examining light bent by the gravity of its sun could also verify Lila's theory (corresponding to General relativity).
Agata, Ramiro, Tarquinia and Azelio fly to Esilio with the Surveyor using an orthogonal course just like the Peerless. Twelve years will pass for them while only four years will pass on board the Peerless. After reaching Esilio, Lila's theory is confirmed. On the surface, they have to deal with many odd consequences of the opposite arrow of time, including having to detonate a rock to enforce their own onto the soil to make their plants grow. Agata finds a message carved into a stone in the crater, which is from the ancestors giving them their gratitude from when Esilio flew past the home world. They fly back with the knowledge of the ultimate success of the grand mission of the Peerless.
When approaching the Peerless, they learn of the successful construction of the messaging system. Everything about their journey is already common knowledge. Contrary to expectation, the system has blocked any new innovation. But it will completely shut down in a while with no hint at a reason sent back before. The crew discusses about a manual shutdown or manipulation being better than a complete destruction of the Peerless by a collision (if it could be averted at all) and build probes to obstruct the orthogonal stars in front of the cameras. After their arrival back on board, they learn about the still ongoing division of society with some thinking the shutdown will be a trick. Agata and Ramiro both learn of a plan to destroy the cameras (which use light from the entire othogonal cluster, rendering bare obstruction impossible) by detonations from space by Giacomo, who used the messaging system he despises nonetheless to plan ahead knowing about the probes of the Surveyor and Agata's condition (whose future self still doesn't agree to the current plan) to even abandon it in the last moment if she finds a less dangerous solution. Ramiro admits to Agata to have send Tarquinia to carve the message on Esilio, which therefore isn't from the ancestors and doesn't guarantee a safe future. Shortly before the disruption, Agata realizes that flooding the cameras with ordinary light can also cause a signal loss and heads out into space to move the bombs. The disruption takes place with only minor destruction and Agata survives injured. Tarquinia admits to Agata and Ramiro that she just couldn't uncarve the message on Esilio, which therefore was in fact from the ancestors. Agata tells them about the destruction of the messaging system having lifted the block on innovation with the recent one explaining how their entire existence is even possible.
One year after the departure of the Peerless from the home world, Valeria is woken up by screams as the sun has turned dark. Together with Eusebio and Silvio, she is brought to Clara, a traveler from the Peerless taking them into space. The Peerless flew another loop to arrive three years earlier (and also passed by itself on its former course). The sun (which in this universe is a burning rock) was extinguished and gigantic thrusters based on the eternal flame are now build on it to accelerate the entire system (through gravity) onto a parallel course with the Hurtlers, rendering them harmless. The destroyed Gemma will continue to provide light. Clara also shares insight into their society where males and females have been fused together and which prefers to stay on the Peerless and the far side of the sun. Valeria plans to come for a visit, but is saddened by the fact that she wouldn't be able to express her gratitude for past generations. Clara thinks that there will surely be a way.[11][12]
Background (literature)
[edit]
Due to Greg Egan begin very popular in Japan, the novel was released by Hayakawa Publishing in Japanese as アロウズ・オブ・タイム (arōzu obu taimu, direct transcription of the original English title into Katakana) in 2017. The translation was done by Makoto Yamagishi (山岸真) and Toru Nakamura (中村融).[13][14]
The novel was a Locus Award Nominee for Best SF Novel in 2014 and reached the 14th place.[15]
The messaging system also appears in the short story The Hundred Light-Year Diary[16] by Greg Egan published in 1992, where a time-reversed galaxy from the future phase of contraction of the universe (a theory known as Big Crunch) is discovered. Both stories deal with free will and the consequences of knowing ahead.[11] In particular for The Arrows of Time, the main mission of scientific research would still be necessary nonetheless since otherwise a result would be sent back in time just because it already had been received without there ever being proof for it.
Background (mathematics and physics)
[edit]
The consequences of the sign change in the metric on the laws of physics are explained in detail (with illustrations and calculations) on Greg Egan's website.[17] The correspondence of the principles presented in the novel with those in our universe are explained in the afterword of the novel.
The novel adapts one of the most famous experiments in physics, which is the verification of General Relativity through deflection of light by the sun during the Solar Eclipse of May 29, 1919 known as Eddington experiment.[18][19] While in our universe, Newton's theory predicts light (if it had rest mass, which is not actually the case[20]) to be bent half compared Einstein's theory,[21] in the Orthogonal universe, the roles are reversed and Vittorio's theory corresponding to the former predicts light (which in this case does indeed have a rest mass[22]) to be bent more than in Lila's theory corresponding to the latter. Calculations and illustrations of this effect are shown on Greg Egan's website.[23]
The Dirac equation provides two important concepts for the novel.[24] As it is constructed as a square root of the Klein–Gordon equation (a relativistic generalization of the Schrödinger equation), the energies of its solutions are affected by the same problem as the square roots of positive numbers, which is the ambiguity of the sign.[25] This led to the theoretical discovery of antimatter in 1928[26] before the first observation of a positron (the antiparticle of the electron) in 1932.[27] But as negative energy poses certain problems in further calculations, the negative sign is often shifted to time using the uncertainty principle of energy and time.[25] This interpretation in quantum field theory of antimatter traveling backwards through time is known as the Feynman–Stückelberg interpretation.[28][29] In the novel, matter and antimatter particles are called „negative“ and „positive luxagens“ as a result.[30] Ordinary matter and antimatter colliding results in their total annihilation,[31][32] which happened with the Object in the prequel The Eternal Flame.[33] It doesn't happen with matter of the orthogonal cluster any more as the Peerless has turned around and hence inverted its own arrow of time. The problem that is now the opposite to that of Esilio and hence it should actually be the other way around is explained in the novel by distinguishing between the actual arrow of time and the arrow of entropy decrease, which are opposite to each other for the orthogonal cluster (hence entropy increases, violating the second law of thermodynamics).[34] The Dirac equation furthermore describes particles with spin 1 / 2 {\displaystyle 1/2} , including electrons.[26][35] It is based on the metric of spacetime and therefore different in the Orthogonal universe as explained in the prequel The Eternal Flame and on Greg Egan's website.[24] As a result, electrons don't exist any more and neither does electronics, which uses them in form of electric currents to transmit information. In the novel, an alternative technology called photonics is used, where photons are used instead, and which also exists in our universe in the form of optical fibers for example.[36][37] (Although different, as photons don't have a rest mass in our universe,[20] but have in the Orthogonal universe.[22])
Reception
[edit]
Karen Burnham, writing in the New York Review of Science Fiction, says „the scenes of them dealing with the counter-intuitive behavior of the time-reversed planet are appropriately mind-bending“. She finds that „ultimately, the plot of the trilogy is always about physics and the concerns over free will and its limitations; it is never about the threat that the Hurtlers posed to the homeworld.“ She also thinks that „it is a fair criticism that some of the physics dialogues in the trilogy are dry, and if the reader doesn't have a solid grounding in the physics of our own universe, it can be a challenge“.[11]
Andy Sawyer, writing in Strange Horizons, says the novel is "an intellectual quest which involves us, the readers" and "it is as valid an apothesis as anything which involves the physical or the spiritual, made rarer because it celebrates curiosity, knowledge, and understanding." He writes about the diagrams in the novel, which many readers "now find alienating", that they make Egan "a rewarding writer rather than a simply difficult one". The scientific discoveries bring „joy involved with really good hard SF: the conceptual breakthrough and the collision with the sublime“.[12]
Other reviews have been published in Interzone, #251 in March/April 2014 by John Howard and Analog Science Fiction and Fact in January/February 2015 by Don Sakers. A french review by Éric Jentile was published in print in Bifrost, #88 in October 2017.[3]

https://scifi.stackexchange.com/questions/3917/is-exponential-population-growth-in-the-amalgam-addressed-in-greg-egans-books
|
Egan tends to make a couple of assertions about advanced cultures, one of which is that among civilized people, exponential growth is considered uncouth. As far as I know, he has never described exactly how the greater society deals with the rare iconoclasts who like to double their numbers every twenty years, but we just don't see any such clades in the Amalgam.
There have been exceptions in some of his other works, when people increase their numbers without limit when they can also increase their resources without limit, but that usually hints at an Aesop about unlimited greed, as in Permutation City.
(In Vitals, Greg Bear draws a nice parallel between individuals who want to live forever, and cancerous cells: they gobble up lots of resources, multiply all they want, don't contribute much and don't really have a viable long-term plan -- even if they think they do.)
Egan starts from the observation that there's a finite amount of available energy in the universe, and hence a finite amount of computation that will be able to take place. So exponential growth must come to an end: if not voluntarily abandoned, it will come up against a physical limit to growth fairly soon. The only question is what the eventual steady state will look like: a co-operative sharing-out of the universe's resources, a destructive tooth-and-claw battle over them, or some mix of the two, in different regions of space and time?
These facts will be obvious to all intelligent and well-informed beings, and in the Amalgam stories Egan chooses to write about a co-operative galactic society. The actual mechanism by which this co-operation is achieved is not really the point of the stories: no doubt as with any kind of collective action problem it has to be approached by a combination of education, enforcement and engineering.
You can explore Egan's views in detail by reading this Usenet debate from 2007, in which Egan argues with a couple of people who consider the co-operative steady state to be not just difficult to achieve but impossible due to Darwinian natural selection.
Egan knows that something like the Amalgam is far from the only possibility:
Periods of stability, periods of change, periods of expansion, periods of non-expansion, can all have their place, and can all co-exist. The only thing that is likely to be physically impossible is endless exponential growth.
But he is optimistic:
I expect an intelligent post-human society to be aware of this high school mathematics, and to have noticed that needing something the universe can't give them—exponential growth—is a really dumb strategy. I expect they will be smart enough to realise that writing extremely efficient software is a far better use of their time and energy than acquiring new computational resources at the absolute maximum physically possible rate.
I've never read the stories in the topic, but from your question it sounds like a large number of the people would be in electronic form at any given time, traveling through space between planets. Even at the speed of light it would take approximately 4.5 years to get from Earth to the next nearest star system, assuming there was a colony there or some other reason to visit it. To visit planets near the galactic core (starting from Earth) it would take about 27,000±1,000 years traveling at light speed. Roughly double that to visit the opposite rim of the galaxy.
If the author of the stories present a [near] instantaneous method of transmission between planets then this answer is moot.

The novel “The Eternal Flame” by Greg Egan was published for the first time in 2012. It’s the second book in the Orthogonal trilogy and is the sequel to “The Clockwork Rocket“.
The generational starship Peerless is traveling in space in search of a technology that can save its crew’s homeworld. The advantage is that the time on the starship flows much slowly than on the planet. The problem is that it doesn’t carry enough fuel for the return trip and to make things worse there’s the problem of the limits of the resources for the crew survival.
While the scientists within the crew are looking for the solutions to their problems, the astronomer Tamara discovers an object in space. An expedition could find new fuel but involves several risks. Meanwhile, new biological studies risk creating a rift in the small society that lives on the Peerless.
“The Eternal Flame” is set several years after “The Clockwork Rocket” so the characters are completely different and is set in space, mainly on the starship Peerless, instead of a planet. The consequence is that the story is independent from the first novel but skipping it means losing all the bases of the Orthogonal trilogy.
This is especially harmful because it’s set in another universe with different physical laws. In “The Clockwork Rocket”, Greg Egan started illustrating those laws through the scientific discoveries of various characters. The author has put online a page of his website that explains the physics of that universe but it’s not like reading a novel.
Another problem is that the characters belong to a species with anatomy and physiology completely different from humans’. Again, in “The Clockwork Rocket” the reader slowly discovers the characteristics of this species, fundamental influences to their society and therefore also in the development of the story in “The Eternal Flame”.
This second novel in the Orthogonal trilogy directly continues the story begun in “The Clockwork Rocket” although it leaps forward in time. Greg Egan is one of the most important hard science fiction writers and the Orthogonal trilogy is in many ways an exploration of that universe.
Honestly sometimes you may be the impression that the story proceeds precisely in order to explain in detail the physics of the Orthogonal universe. As in “The Clockwork Rocket”, Greg Egan uses several graphics to accompany the characters’ discoveries and their theories. Therefore you need to have a certain level of knowledge of physics and mathematics to avoid getting lost but with this author that’s normal.
The story is, however, much more than the the physics of the Orthogonal universe. The social problems of the planet were important in the first book, so are those on the starship Peerless in the second book. The resources are limited and scientific research are also used to find new ways to support the crew during the long journey.
Among the many problems of the small society existing on the Peerless, Greg Egan focuses on women’s rights. Their species reproduces through fission so a woman dies when her children are born. For this reason, it’s men who take care of children and it’s them who have the equivalent of the human maternal instinct.
In their traditional society, women are considered incapable of taking care of a child, of course someone else’s, because according to the stereotype they lack the instincts they need. On the Peerless the needs and the presence of progressive people have started to make changes to their society and yet there are still many people linked to traditional values.
New discoveries in biology also lead to clashes between progressives, who accept gender equality, and traditionalists, who want to keep on controlling women especially in their reproduction. As in the first book, in “The Eternal Flame” Greg Egan is inspired by the human social problems to tell the story of a very different species.
Just as on Earth, on the Peerless there are people who reject the social implications of new scientific discoveries but are ready to take advantage of their practical benefits. Also from the emotional point of view, despite the profound differences this species feels the same emotions as humans and this greatly helps to understand the characters actions.
Because of its features, “The Eternal Flame” has often a slow pace, with many conversations among the characters and their discussions that often concern scientific theories. Instead , in other parts of the novel there’s action at a much faster pace. There are many characters so only a few are well developed but I think Greg Egan did overall a good job.
In my opinion, “The Eternal Flame” is a very good novel that continues at a high level the Orthogonal trilogy. If you liked the first book I strongly recommend to get this one as well.

Why do we read hard science fiction? I know what it is: in a hard SF story the characters are bound by the laws of the universe, the threat they face is shaped by the immutable rule of nature. In other words, science is king, physics or chemistry or, just occasionally, biology provides the threat faced and the solution, if any. It is science fiction at its most intellectually austere, leaving little room for romance or colourful adventure. Most hard SF takes the form of a puzzle to be solved, but the puzzle depends on the state of our scientific knowledge. So you wonder, why not, in preference, read a science text book? Or, if the puzzle is what appeals, why not try a good detective story?
Such questions seem particularly apposite when considering a new novel by Greg Egan. Egan is, without doubt, one of the best hard SF writers working at the moment, but unless you are already convinced of the beauty of mathematics, there are long stretches when this novel is going to seem no more lyrical, visionary or startling than a text book. The longest and most exciting section of the novel involves two characters from a largely non-scientific culture slowly deducing the laws of gravity, of planetary motion, and eventually of relativity. If you are already up to date with the state of scientific knowledge, there is nothing challenging or speculative in any of this. Indeed, if you are already conversant with all of this, the chances are that you'll be jumping ahead of the plot: okay, if they've deduced that about spin, then the next thing they'll need to work out is... Of course, if all of this math is a mystery to you, then you'll be delighted to discover that Egan has the enviable ability to make even complex ideas seem accessible without recourse to a single equation (and only a couple of fairly crude diagrams). One of the joys of the novel is that it can leave someone with only a woolly grasp of how numbers work feeling empowered, as if they can at last understand how such complicated scientific ideas are put together. But you have to ask yourself how many people like that would be reading Egan in the first place.
There is a suggestion that Egan might recognise this dilemma also. Most of his invention, his interest, is poured in to those sections of the novel that deal with this modest mathematical advance. This is deliberately small scale stuff, it all takes place within a small fragment of rock known as the Splinter, and the creatures, though they are not fully and clearly described, seem to be insectoid both in size and appearance. But this is balanced by an encompassing story that is large scale, colourful space opera, a rich stew of sweeping vistas, technological wonders and breathless action that deliberately counterpoints what is happening in the Splinter. But where the story of the Splinter is told with care and detail and patience, the space opera is careless, ill-plotted, and fails to resolve any of the numerous threads of plot it sets up. The space opera serves, in the end, to provide a certain amount of context for the situation the Splinter is in, that is all.
There was a planet upon which there was an advanced but not yet space-faring civilisation; the planet faced certain doom; the civilisation devised an ingenious but desperate attempt to preserve life. Millennia later, the Splinter is just one of what we might call lifeboats surviving the wreck and now orbiting a black hole. Such is the background we eventually learn in the space opera; the rest is fluff in which Egan himself has no obvious interest.
The space opera starts off full of promise. There is a galaxy-wide civilisation, known as the Amalgam, which occupies all but the galactic core. Here, in the galaxy's central bulge, is the territory of the Aloof, who have no interaction with the Amalgam. The only time citizens of the Amalgam are permitted to enter the territory of the Aloof is when they take the perilous journey as unencrypted data across the core. Then one traveller is wakened mid-journey, shown a meteor with traces of DNA, and sent on her way again. Once back in the Amalgam, she goes to a bar, seeks out a complete stranger, Rakesh, tells him her story and he decides to investigate. Which is, when you think about it, about as inept and unlikely a way to open a novel as you can get. It is, on the very first page, our first suggestion that Egan isn't really putting his full heart and soul into this part of the novel.
Rakesh, with a partner, Parantham, sets out for the forbidden territory of the Aloof. Except that this is neither as perilous nor as challenging as you might expect. Not only do the Aloof create no obstacles, they guide them straight to their destination and provide every tool and piece of information that might be required. In other words, apart from the fact that they never appear, the Aloof behave exactly opposite to the way we have been told they behave. What is being set up, therefore, is a classic series of science fiction mysteries: why did the Aloof stop the original traveller? Why did she approach Rakesh? Why did the Aloof allow Rakesh and Parantham into their territory? Why are they being so helpful? Will the result of this quest crack open at least part of the age-old mystery of the Aloof? Before we are very far into the novel, however, it becomes apparent that neither Rakesh, Parantham, nor their author has any interest in even asking these questions, let alone answering them. Instead we get a straightforward journey to their destination, a little exploration when they get there, and nothing more. That even Egan is growing bored with this uneventful adventure is evident in the fact that the chapters concerning Rakesh and Parantham become noticeably shorter and further apart as the novel progresses; you half expect them to disappear completely before the book actually ends.
In contrast, the chapters concerning Roi and Zac and their fellows inside the Splinter become steadily longer and more frequent. Although they start out in a distinctly low-key, low-tech, colourless manner, the interest is all here. The inhabitants of the Splinter follow a tightly regulated, narrowly focussed existence, but when Roi encounters Zac he is separated from the herd and following his own idiosyncratic researches in the zero-gravity core of the Splinter. Roi becomes fascinated by Zac's endeavours and she decides to join him, and between them they effectively invent mathematics and astrophysics. The more they discover, however, the more it becomes apparent that something is wrong. Gradually building a team around them, they explore the nature of their world, venture daringly out onto the surface, and eventually embark on a bold attempt to change the orbit of their own world in order to avoid a cataclysmic collision with a rock that is spiralling in to the black hole.
It is classic hard SF: the quest to understand the rules governing the world, and then to find a way of applying those rules in a fresh way to avoid disaster. As in much hard SF, characterisation is minimal. Despite the fact that one is female and compassionate, and the other is male and obsessive, there isn't really much that distinguishes Roi from Zac; while the other creatures in the Splinter are little more than names. Though the nature of their culture, not quite a hive mind but certainly collective and communal in everything it does, goes a long way towards excusing such a lack of individuality. And we learn only as much about their environment as we need to understand the science. Even when, late in the novel, Rakesh ventures into a habitat that is clearly the twin of the Splinter (one of the real disappointments of this novel is that the two arcs of story never actually intersect), he does so in the form of one of its native inhabitants which somehow prevents us getting a clear view from outside: these are never characters in a landscape. Nevertheless, as we slowly come to understand the world and then discover the peril it faces, this is a gripping novel. It is just a pity that Egan felt that the story of the Splinter on its own wasn't enough to sustain a full novel; or at least that he couldn't find enough to do in the parallel story of Rakesh and Parantham to give each half of the novel equal weight.

Generally I like my SF hard, even diamond hard. I don’t disdain fantasy; some of my favorite stories are fantastic. (As I’ve said often, Terry Pratchett’s Discworld series is my #1, my proverbial desert island companion.) But I definitely lean towards harder SF.
Growing up it was, of course, the Holy Trinity, Asimov, Clarke, Heinlein, but there was also Clement, Niven, and many others who stirred a large measure of science into their fiction. More recently the list of hard SF authors includes Forward, Steele, Stephenson, and a particular favorite of mine, Greg Egan.
I can safely say his Orthogonal series is as hard as science fiction gets.
I can equally safely say it may be too hard for many readers, even fans of SF. It might even be a bit hard for fans of Egan’s work — I’m an avid fan, but I found it a bit challenging. For one thing, it’s “hard SF” in the usual sense, very science-y, but the science itself isn’t easy.
In fact, to help readers make sense of the book, Egan offers a large amount of support material on his website. Getting everything from the book that Egan put into it requires some level of familiarity with that material.
I do have vaguely mixed feelings about niche stories, and Egan’s work tends to be niche in general, and extremely so in some cases. That niche being theoretical physics in all its foundational and mathematical glory. (Not surprising; Egan is a skilled mathematician.) The Yin-Yang tension here is that art should be as accessible to all as possible, but extreme niche art has strong appeal to those in the niche. Ultimately I think if an artist accepts the consequences of niche work (poor sales), there is good value for both creating and enjoying niche art.
Hell, this blog is pretty niche (my other blog even more so). Niche is fine, but it has caveats. And now I’m going to stop saying niche, because I’m starting to feel like a Knight of Niche (bring me a small exotic cactus).
§
The Orthogonal trilogy takes place in a radically different physical reality than ours, and its characters are non-human in the extreme. The three books take their civilization from the equivalent of a pre-Newton view of reality to a modern science on par with, or in some ways slightly better than, ours.
Egan details their advances in great,… um, detail. So much detail.
But it’s important because the physics of their world gives them a way to gain the time needed to figure out how to save their civilization from an imminent existential threat. Recently they’ve begun to observe what they name “Hurtlers” in their skies. They come to identify these as high-velocity objects from outside their system (outside their galaxy, as it turns out).
The Hurtlers have been few and small, but seem to be increasing in number and size. One strikes Gemma, one of the other planets in their system, and sets it on fire — it becomes a new sun. They realize that a large enough Hurtler could do the same to their world. It would be a decisive end to their species.
§
Egan has designed an interesting species. They’re something like people-sized amoeba with male and female kinds. They have a basically bipedal shape, but can reform their bodies as needed. It’s a native ability, not due to any special self knowledge.
Their reproductive cycle is striking. Women are larger and stronger than men, and families begin with mated pairs. When they decide to have children, a reproductive act in which the man issues a binding promise to the woman causes her to first reabsorb her limbs, features, and brain; and to then fission into four children, two pairs of mated female-male “cos” — both of whom eventually reproduce.
The wife is lost in the process; the husband raises the kids. Men have all the child-raising feelings and innate abilities, whereas women, who are never closer than aunts, tend to be the leaders, teachers, and world-builders. That women are lost during child-bearing is seen as unfortunate but just the way life is. Much of the social tension comes from those who rail against the hand nature dealt — women who want to go on working; men who don’t want to lose their wives.
There’s an interesting naming convention, reminiscent of Latin names. For instance, the first character we meet is Yalda, a female “solo” — someone born without a co. That’s not common, but it happens. It’s perhaps analogous to, but the opposite of, identical twins for us. Normally Yalda would have a co named Yaldo. She does have a brother-sister co-pair, Lucia and Lucio.
In reproducing by fission, it would seem there is no chance for genetic mixing. But it turns out traits (and diseases) can be passed — with light. I’ll come back to that.
If Egan was more into social issues, this alone would be a great canvas for stories about gender, and Egan does explore it, but these are just the characters that populate his larger story about a universe with a major physics twist. For one thing, the speed of light depends on its frequency. More importantly, Special Relativity works backwards!
§
In our reality, the faster something moves, the slower its clock appears to run to observers. Those last two words are important; our local clocks always run at one second per second, but observers in motion relative to us may see our clock tick differently (slower).
The canonical example is the Twin Paradox in which one identical twin, say Roberta, takes a fast spaceship to a distant star and then returns to Roberto, her twin who stayed back on Earth. Their ages originally matched, but now Roberta is younger than Roberto. (See: the posts in the Time & Twins section of the Special Relativity series for details.)
In the Orthogonal reality, a fast-moving clock appears to tick faster, not slower. What’s more, speed can be infinite; it isn’t limited to light speed (which varies by frequency, anyway). It’s possible to go fast enough that your motion vector is orthogonal to your previous vector through spacetime. This effectively stops time “back home” — allowing a journey of any length without time passing for those left behind.
At the turnaround point, deceleration and acceleration back along the flight path makes you not orthogonal with Homeworld, and so time does pass there. Once re-acceleration is complete time freezes back home until you return, decelerate, and re-enter the original vector (hopefully bearing gifts).
So the opposite of the Twin Paradox happens: the travelers age as much as needed (some 12 generations), but only four years pass back home. The trip gives the travelers time to figure out how to deal with the Hurtlers and return in time to save the species.
§
They need to figure out more than the Hurtlers, though.
The generation ship they launch, the Peerless, uses a large fraction of its fuel accelerating to orthogonality with Homeworld. Most of the remaining fuel is allocated to running the ship for the unknown generations — there is none for slowing down, let alone returning.
The story wouldn’t be much fun if they failed, so it’s no spoiler to admit they don’t. Here it was never more true that “the journey is the reward.” (A big, very detailed, reward if you find strange physics rewarding.)
They do solve the fuel problem by finding a way to implement something mythical from their sagas: the Eternal Flame — a source of energy that doesn’t burn up.
Along the way they discover they need to address their population problem. A wife and her co become four children and a father. Two become five. The father dies of old age (“goes the way of men”) but each child-pair repeats the growth cycle. They explore a number of interesting paths; the ultimate solution is a game-changer.
The first book is called The Clockwork Rocket because this civilization doesn’t have electricity. They don’t even have metal. Their constructions are made from different kinds of rock. For example, clearstone is analogous to glass or clear plastics, and hardstone is analogous to metals. Their rocket, as did early airplanes, works entirely with mechanical linkages. (As their technology improves, they’ll discover photonics.)
They power their rocket — which is a mountain, by the way; their Everest, Mt. Peerless — with sunstone, a volatile form of rock that, when powdered and combined with “liberator” (which they get from plants), provides their power source. It can light lamps, heat, do work, or fuel rockets. If not carefully managed, it explodes.
So their mission is to figure out how to survive in the mountain (which is filled with tunnels and chambers huge and small) long enough to figure out the Hurtlers problem, figure out the fuel problem, and maybe figure out how to deal with going against time’s arrow on the way back.
Things get especially interesting when it turns out the Hurtlers, because of their unusual origin, act like antimatter. They’re even more dangerous to Homeworld than imagined. It isn’t just their high velocity that’s a killer.
§
To enable this reality, one thing Egan does is make a key change to the spacetime metric — the view-independent way we define length (space) and time. For us that metric is:
Note the minus sign for the time dimension. It’s this Minkowski space +++- signature that’s behind the effects of Special Relativity.
Egan’s Orthogonal reality has no minus:
Making spacetime Euclidean, not Minkowskian, turns out to have a number of unusual effects. The books are an exploration of the consequences of the ++++ spacetime metric signature.
A key consequence is that it’s possible to accelerate to infinite velocity in a finite time. In our reality, constant acceleration approaches light speed asymptotically. In the Orthogonal universe, there’s no asymptote, acceleration rotates your spacetime vector linearly, and that vector can tip all the way over to horizontal — to being orthogonal in time with your original vector.
Obviously this requires knowing about how light behaves, spacetime diagrams, Lorentz transforms, and how Minkowski space differs from Euclidean space. It’s hard for me to judge how readable, let alone enjoyable, the book is without at least some foundation physics. It’s definitely for us geeks.
§ §
As such, I can only recommend it provisionally. Huge thumbs up on the reality, aliens, and ideas, but be warned Egan leans hard into the deals. The books have a lot of diagrams. A good starting place is his essay, Plus, Minus: A Gentle Introduction to the Physics of Orthogonal. It’ll give you a good idea if you want to try the books.
That said, wow, the ideas are great and why I like Egan’s writing so much. (Likewise Neal Stephenson along almost exactly the same lines.) I’ve only touched on some of them. I haven’t mentioned how (or why) plants emit light, or why rock burns, or that light works both ways in time so messages from the future are possible.
I’ll also mention I found the third book less satisfying on several counts. I didn’t care for the characters, for one thing. (Each book deals with different generations along the trip.) The major problems have been solved by then, and much of the story is about politics in the mountain, fighting factions, and some truly weird physics (the future messages stuff).
Parts of the third book are very much like scenes in the movie Tenet — situations in which time is running both ways. I find the notion so incoherent it got in the way of my fulling enjoying the movie or those parts of book three. (In fact, I think both the movie and the book illustrate just how incoherent the notion is. Egan does go further than Tenet does in trying to account for it.)
But wow, what a cool universe and aliens!
§ §
As a hard SF aside, George O. Smith (1911–1981) wrote a series of short stories about communications engineers using vacuum tubes and other 1940s electronics to build and maintain a Solar system-wide radio network. Those were also super niche, but as an electronics hobbyist, it was my niche.
Of course, IN SPACE, vacuum tubes are just… tubes.
Question: Is science fiction rife with trilogies because it has a Holy Trinity?
Stay orthogonal, my friends! Go forth and spread beauty and light.
