...I'd be better off. Get a grip - get a REAL life - get friends who understand real life...and don't make excuses for any of it...life is NOT a soap opera...GROW UP !!!!!

Cindy and John, thanks so much for sharing that - I thought I was a crusty old bird,, until I saw it! I've been married for 14 years, and I know you will be as happy as my husband and I are - I can see it in your beautiful smiles! Congratulations - you moved me, and I hope everyone else who sees your video will be equally as happy for you.

PLEASE, Salon.com, PLEASE remove that picture! Haven't we all had enough, what with the original pictures published so long ago? Yes, we need to know - do we need to SEE??? Over and over again?? This is not a comic book - we all read English VERY well, thank you - PLEASE just tell us about it, describe it, condem it, yes, yes, YES, but stop the visual ASSAULT!!!

Two years ago, I "found" The West Wing on BRAVO; the first episode kind of ticked me off - all that fast-paced politicalese, legalese, yadda yadda. But, to my surprise, I found myself absolutely HOOKED on the damn thing, after viewing only another couple of episodes - all reruns, all on BRAVO. Now, imagine this - I found to my great surprise that I came in at the middle of what appeared to be the FOURTH Season!! I'd never heard of the show - I didn't know anyone else who had - and I'd been missing Martin Sheen for years!! That was unbelievable to me, and I questioned how it could ever have happened. All at once, it came to me - I have not watched Network TV for years and years. NBC??? Are you KIDDING?!?! Listen, I could barely stand to admit that I watched Cable TV - it's not so hot, either, even with a million channels to surf. But the Broadcast Networks? No way. I told my husband, and ONLY my husband - I still didn't trust that this thing could hold up for much longer. Well, after three weeks or so, I knew I had to see ALL the episodes - I had to figure out all the story lines, all the characters - and I found myself at Ebay's front door. I now own all of the five seasons that are available, and of course, I will be purchasing seasons six and seven, just as soon as they're available. Sure I'm still "hanging in there"...I don't abandon MY ideals so quickly! Imagine a world without The West Wing - how very sad, how very unimaginative, how very hollow...Reality, what a concept.
