Greta is prettier, smarter and richer. So why are Brandon, Jack and Colin all
panting after Jennifer when Greta can't even get a date? The writers blew it
big time on this one.

I agree. Can't define it either---except that she seems to be looking for a
male to solve all of her problems with life--at the same time, she's like a cat
in heat wandering about Salem and doing nothing of value (doesn't even seem to
spend time with her child.) Guess that's why she's lost my sympathy. She and
Jack need to solve a murder mystery and have some good bedroom scenes together.

I am assuming Jennifer the (Melissa Reeves) Jennifer?
I don't know about what she looks like now, but when she was younger she was
quite attractive.

Is Greta the swamp girl us Australian veiwers are just starting to get to
know?

Far out! We are so far behind you guys. We are watching
scene's when Stefano had some mind controlling device installed into Vivians
mouth. (For heavens sake)!!!
We haven't seen Jack, Jen, Abbey, or Laura for what seems like neally 6
months now. But Billie is blaming
Hope for the loss of her Daughter, Gorgea? Mike is
just about to made "Cheif of staff", Oh, and for the first time this week,
we met the darstardly Dr Craig Wesley's
fat Mrs, whats her name again?

Yep, we are how many years behind do you think? LOL

Yes. But I don't agree with them. The writers screw up an interesting new
character (it might have been fun to see Greta and Sami stranded on an island
together---watch Swamp Girl know how to survive and Sami totally freak!)

However, ain't my story to write, just hate.

NO way. She didn't impress me at all on Fear Factor. This was the only time I
had ever seen a show give a loser (she didn't make the time) a second
(cockroach) and then a third chance (worms). The only reason they did it was
because she is a network gal and they were promoting the show with her as the
star.

I wonder if you could sue them if you were bitten by a snake? But, some of
things they make you you though.

Like lay in a covered coffin-like box with 10 snakes crawling all over you
for 5 minutes or so? Please!!

Nat, I think you've gotta' sign a contract before you go on the show
that says you won't sue Fear Factor if something funky happens to you
unexpectedly. However, I seriously doubt those were posinous snakes. The
propensity for one to bite you with all of the screaming, talking, and
Fear Factor commotion going on would just be too damned high.

I kinda' wish that Jennifer would get a snake bite on DOOL. One that
would change her and get her quit being so friggin' annoying! I can't
stand how she's trying to be Greta's best friend. This is a woman who's
admitted to having a huuuuuge crush on her ex husband. That's just too
damned wierd how they are bestest buddies now, Jen never sees Hope any
more, and Greta is still friends with Jack, whom Jennifer doesn't trust.
The whole storyline needs to be poisoned, tanked, or else revamped
entirely!!!!

Well said. Also it was for Charity and hers was The California Highway
Patrol Widows and Orphans Fund. Rogan knew full well that if she won the
$$$ would help out some needy and well deserving little kids. (Ever
since 9/11 people are a lot more cognizant of kids who are partially or
fully parentless. It's opened the country's eyes. We're also more aware
and respectful of civil servants who die in the line of duty, like cops,
firemen, squad detectives who do drug busts, etc.)

He'd *NEVER* have allowed a regular contestant to have a second and
third chance that way if it meant just keeping the $$$ for themselves.
He looked at her and thought of the little kids.

If you ask me, Ali Sweeney was the biggest wimp that show's ever seen.
When he *OFFERED* her a second chance with the roach, *SHE* tried to
change the whole set-up, and replied "Dude, can I just like eat a worm
instead?". Baldwin and Richardson started laughing and had a cow when
she tried that idea on for size, so Joe said she had to eat three worms.
No one's *EVER* been so haughty as to try to change the rules on the
host of the show since Fear Factor began.

She slipped on the building with her big, unfeminine clown feet,
screamed and fretted like a little girl, and tried to change the rules.
She's a big baby!!!! I'm not saying she didn't give it her all or do
somewhat well, but she *SURELY* didn't take it in stride in the process
of arriving there. She came in 2nd, but not with any type of
professional and mature grace.

Could Bo and Hope get busted for allowing Jan to live there at the Brady
Home without parental consent? Her dad was out of town, after all, and
her mom threw her out, yet could come back to say that the Bradys had no
right to harbor her daughter without parental consent. I hope that Jan
does not wind up screwing up J.T.'s custody battle. I couldn't believe
that since Bo's a cop he didn't at least check with the Dad (via cell

I believe (and I'm sure Mare will correct me if I'm wrong) that a 17-year old
who is pregnant is considered emancipated.

Ok Karin, here is what I found out. This is in regards to California.

The specific California code, is known as the Emancipation of Minors Law.

The code states:

A person under the age of 18 years is an emancipated minor if any of the
following conditions is satisfied:
(a) The person has entered into a valid marriage, whether or not the marriage
has been dissolved.
(b) The person is on active duty with the armed forces of the United States.
(c) The person has received a declaration of emancipation pursuant to Section
7122 of the California Family Code.

To receive this declaration under Section 7122, a minor must meet all the
following conditions as outlined in Section 7120:

The minor is at least 14 years of age.

The minor willingly lives separate and apart from the minor's parents or
guardian with the consent or acquiescence of the minor's parents or guardian.

The minor demonstrates to the Court that he/she is managing his or her own
financial affairs.

The source of the minor's income is not derived from any activity declared to
be a crime by the laws of this state or the laws of the United States.

A minor who becomes emancipated has the following privileges (among others):

Consent to medical, dental, or psychiatric care, without parental consent,
knowledge, or liability.
Enter into a binding contract (i.e. buy a car, get a loan) or give a delegation
of power (sign a Power of Attorney).
Buy, sell, lease, encumber, exchange, or transfer an interest in real or
personal property, including, but not limited to, shares of stock in a domestic
or foreign corporation or a membership in a nonprofit corporation.
Sue or be sued in his or her own name.
Compromise, settle, arbitrate, or otherwise adjust a claim, action, or
proceeding by or against him or her.
Make or revoke a will.
Establish the minor's own residence.
Apply for a work permit pursuant to Section 49110 of the Education Code without
the request of the minor's parents.
Enroll in a school or college.

It must depend on the state, because under Arizona State law, a minor is
infact emancipated when pregnant.

The reason is more than apparent. The teen herself is in the role of having
to be a decision maker for a child--therefore capable of making decisions
for herself.

Arizona has no emancipation law. That means a minor in this state, including
foster kids, must have a legal guardian until he or she reaches the age of 18.
In the few cases where emancipation has been found to exist, it has been
usually a determination by a court based on circumstances that existed at the
time the person was a minor. For example, if a minor buys a car, signs a
contract, and later tries to get out of the contract on the basis of being a
minor, a court can find that the minor was emancipated for purposes of the
contract. That finding would make the contract enforceable by the seller.

Well, since Lambert's first husband is so crooked and spent all of that
time in jail, it's really very hard for me to believe that Heather hangs
with lawyers and they're really tight buddies, to be quite honest. LOL.
Usually a person in that type of profession feels pity and/or shame for
women who have poor enough judgment to impregnate themselves with a
criminal's baby and isn't buddies with them.

Lawyers and people who raise children that are the spawn of prisoners
usually don't swim in the same school of fish when it comes to where
they hang out and who they buddy up with, you know? Kind of like people
who eat Caviar and toast points for Sunday Brunch and people who live in
a one bedroom rental house and eat Grits and Black Eyed Peas. It's a
different world for each.

Heather Lambert is just not cut from that type of cloth. Losers beget
losers, in other words. I no more believe that she hangs with Arizona's
finest and most law abiding than the man in the moon. Her past speaks
for itself. She's a loser who's married to a hippie, goofball
cartoonist. The proof is at her website. She's not Attorney ilk, period.

Now you are just sounding more ignorant. That is not what the website says and
any intelligent person that checked it out will see that. The only adult
rights that someone who is a teenager and pregnant can get is healthcare....
for obvious reasons. They are not emancipated because of pregnancy in CA or
AZ..... like the website stated... AZ has no emancipation laws.....which is the
opposite of what you and your lawyer best friend said. So apologize like an
adult or don't apologize at all...... it shows who you are....and it definitely
shows what you are not (mature).

My best friend is not a lawyer, my friend is. This is the same thing you do
to the other people who have your best friend on killfile--you stretch what

Question #22: Is there a law that prohibits minors from attending R-rated movies?

A: There is no law passed by Arizona or the Federal Government that prohibits
minors from attending R-rated movies. The rating system that you are asking about
is put out by the Motion Picture Association. Theatre owners voluntarily enforce
the guidelines. Currently, about 85% of theatres in the United States subscribe to
this system and will not admit individuals under 17 to R-rated movies without a
parent or guardian present. If you would like more information regarding MPAA and
their rating system, call the MPAA at 220-293-1966 or visit their website

Explain to me how that relates to preganancy or perhaps correct youself and give

It is so interesting how some people on this list can't discuss a subject when
they are wrong. They return to trying to demean people and always......yes
always try to tie it into JN. Some people have a real problem with her and
anyone they suspect is linked to her. I feel so sorry for you, Heather. You
are nitpicking instead of apologizing because you are not a big enough person.
Excuse me for calling your friend your best friend...I am sure he or she will

Arizona state code differs with you. They seem to define emanicaption. Explain to
me how it can be mentioned in the state code but not be a law?

A.R.S. § 25-320 (2001)

EMANCIPATION OF MINOR.
Because § 12-2451 provides that parents owe support to "minor, unemancipated
children," by implication that section
provides that parents do not owe a duty of support to children who are no longer
minors or who have become emancipated,
except in the two special circumstances listed in subsection A of that section.
Guzman v. Guzman, 175 Ariz. 183, 854 P.2d
1169 (Ct. App. 1993).
Child support obligation automatically terminated where child married prior to
graduating from high school; therefore, mother
was required to reimburse father for the monies he paid to her after the child's
marriage to the extent these monies exceeded
what he already owed in child support arrearages. Guzman v. Guzman, 175 Ariz. 183,
854 P.2d 1169 (Ct. App. 1993).

and from

A.R.S. § 25-503 (2001)

M. For the purposes of Subsections I and J of this section, a child is emancipated:

1. On the date of the child's marriage.

2. On the child's eighteenth birthday.

3. When the child is adopted.

4. When the child dies.

5. On the termination of the support obligation if support is extended beyond
the age of majority pursuant to section 25-501,
Subsection A or section 25-320, Subsections B and C.

Thank you for clarifying that, Todd. The original post had the actual
wording...

http://www.lawforkids.org/QA/family/family59.cfm

Question #59: Can foster children petition for emancipated minor status?

Answer: Arizona has no emancipation law. That means a minor in this state,


including foster kids, must have a legal guardian until he or she reaches the
age of 18. In the few cases where emancipation has been found to exist, it has
been usually a determination by a court based on circumstances that existed at
the time the person was a minor. For example, if a minor buys a car, signs a
contract, and later tries to get out of the contract on the basis of being a
minor, a court can find that the minor was emancipated for purposes of the
contract. That finding would make the contract enforceable by the seller.

However, a foster child does have an option other than sitting in foster care
until the age of 18. Child Protective Services (CPS), the legal guardian of
foster kids, has a program called ILS, Independent Living Services. It provides
training in how to manage daily living skills and personal finances for those
foster kids who are eligible for the program. Once the minor completes the
training part, he or she becomes eligible to get a monthly payment to cover
rent and basic living expenses so the minor can learn, while still under the
care of CPS, to manage his or her own life. Talk to your caseworker about your
eligibility for this program.


somehow the link went off.....though the answer is still on that website among
others..........

here is additional info from that site.....

Question #56: I live in Arizona, is there no possibility of me requesting legal
emancipation without parental consent?

Answer: Arizona law makes your parents responsible for your well-being until
you turn 18 years old.

The only exceptions to this are if you are legally married (if you are under
18, parents must approve of you being married) or join the military (parents
must usually give their approval if you join the military before you are 18).

In cases where parents are not providing for your well-being (like cases of
abuse or neglect), the state government can sever a parent's rights. This means
that due to evidence of abuse or neglect of a child, the state declares that a
parent is not fufilling their legal responsibility to provide for a child's
well-being. In cases such as this, a parent's rights over a child may be
severed.

This is not emancipation though, as the child is taken care of by the Arizona
foster care system until they are 18.


Again, Todd, thank you for being mature enough to tell me the err. I am sorry
if my post led to confusion.

Try this one - it's from the law site:

http://www.lawforkids.org/QA/family/family39.cfm

*Question #39*: Is it true once you become pregnant you are emancipated?

Answer: No. Your parents are responsible for you until you are 18 years old
even if you become pregnant and have a child of your own.

In Arizona it is very hard to become emancipated. In fact, there is no law
telling you how to become emancipated in this state.
However, you may become emancipated if you get married or enlist in the
military.

Emancipation in this area is a question of fact. A court would have to look
at all of the living circumstances before deciding if you were emancipated
or not.

Answered in my previous post. As it stated in my previous post Arizona has no
emancipation laws... These are legal laws to deal with support or
contracts..which it mentioned in my other post. That way the state can say who
has to pay what. It isn't truly an emancipation law per se just a financial
responsibility statute. As you can see it says nothing about pregnancy here
either.

The term emancipation is defined in Arizona code, therefore Arizona does have
emancipation laws. It defines 5 ways in which a child is emancipated.

Saying Arizona has no emancipation laws, implies that there is nothing in the code
that deals with emancipation. Maybe you should learn to state you intent a little
clearer.

The codifying of the term "emancipation" in state code makes it law. You are right
there is no process in Arizona for defining the process or the legal rights.

Say I went to court and said I no long have to pay child support for my 16 year old
daughter because she is married and therfore emancipated.

According to you the Judge would say - No there is no emancipation laws go away.

According to Arizona State code the Judge would say - Yes State law defines a
person emanicpated on the day of their marriage.

You see the judge needs the "law" to back him up on his decision. As in "Guzman v.
Guzman".

I agree that Mare initially reflected the incorrect URL; however, she did

If you want to play that way....then this starts with Bonbon asking me to
correct her if she is wrong. Either that was bait (which is childish) or
seriously interested. Keep up your silly argument if you want.....I am just
telling you 2 things......believe it or not.....there are no emancipation laws
in AZ and pregnancy has nothing to do with emancipation. Keep playing your
games kids......maybe when you can admit to being wrong, for once, people can
have mature discussions with you....until then live in the dark.

Please remember that there was NO original question. I simply said
(paraphrased), ...correct me if I'm wrong (and I know that Mare will), I
believe that you become emancipated if you become pregnant when you are 17.

I said "I believe." I'm beginning to believe if I didn't post any opinions

My perception of your post was that you brought up a subject. Then you go

interpreted that as a query in that you said you "believed", but wanted

I'm a real Sam Spade according to Dana and Co., didn't you know? I have
links, spies, and minions according to Dana and all of her disciples. If
Mecca were a person instead of place, I'm sure that's what they'd call
me. They act like people come from miles to worship at my feet or
something. Minions, spies, and links. I wonder if they realize how nutty
and petrified they all sound, Mare? I control no one, yet Dana and Co.

as we know it with all of my "Spies, Links, and Minions". Talk about a

You said "one of my best friends", Heather. If someone called her your
