[QUOTE="Karin, post: 86982, member: 57167"] Thank you for the feedback on my story [B]Ms Southworth.[/B] :) I'm sorry you didn't like the last scene. I had a feeling you wouldn't like it, as you've given me [I]many [/I]hints that you would like to see Bobby and Pam have another baby in this story so to have the subject brought up and dropped must have been somewhat disappointing to you. I think Pam went to one or two DOA meetings but she didn't like it much, which is why she says that she can't just do that. It's not her thing. Then as for the ring shopping, personally I see nothing wrong with a man and a woman picking out rings together. But maybe that's just me. Actually no we didn't write this scene when we were teenagers. It's an add on scene from later on... Interesting opinion. So I guess that means that you think that Italian men are not masculine enough for you...Because well there are some cultures where the men don't let you carry anything! :giggle: That is probably true. I guess we've never really seen Bobby and Pam out shopping on the show. So maybe it was just April he went shopping with, but after all they were on their honeymoon and abroad so maybe that's why... I can understand that, yet sometimes when you haven't watched something in let's say 10 years time it is possible that you will re-evaluate it when you rewatch it. I guess that's why I love re-watching some of my favorite show every decade or so as I always discover something new and I've noticed my opinion and ability to understand the characters sometimes change with age too. :) Anyway here's tonight's [B]update: [/B] The man who had been following Jenna was sitting in a meeting with the chief editor of the Dallas Morning Newspaper. “Kurt, how many times do I have to explain this to you, we want a real story. People are not interested in if the water birds have moved or that the neighbor’s cat got saved from a tree. This paper wants something juicier,” the editor explained in an annoyed tone of voice. “I know and I’ll surprise you this time, I’ve got an amazing story for you,” Kurt said. “So what do you have?” The editor asked. “An article with photos of Jenna Wade,” Kurt replied. “Jenna Wade?” The news paper man asked. “We’re talking about [I]the [/I]Jenna Wade who is related to the Ewings right?” “Right,” Kurt confirmed. “Well that’s not bad, where did you get the information from?” “It’s from a reliable source,” Kurt smiled. “Let me have a look at the article,” the chief editor said, in a much more keen voice.

I’m loving it!” The chief editor grinned thinking of all the extra copies they were going to sell with that kind of story. “So do we have a deal?” “Okay you’re hired!” The chief editor agreed and they shook hands on it. “Just one question, how do you get hold of all this information?” “Oh you know a good reporter never reveals his sources,” Kurt smiled, thinking that it was a good thing for him that Lucas Krebbs was such a blabbermouth.
