fearlesstempThe internet is such a black hole. It swallows up my good intentions and academic drive to succeed. I came here for the specific purpose of digging up gossip about Genghis Khan, and yet somehow I find myself sitting here forty minutes later, typing up an LJ entry, after spending ten minutes desperately searching out General Hospital spoilers (after spending twenty minutes reading a variety of threads on TWoP, and checking my flist, and reading Dwight Schrute's blog), and do I have any new gossip about Genghis Khan? No! No, I do not!
Old gossip about Genghis Khan: I watched his A&E Biography yesterday, and it strongly implied that he and the head of another clan were an item. The Biography special didn't say it straight out, of course; Dramatic Intonation Guy said, "'Genghis and [Other Clan Leader] were said to be great friends, closer than brothers. They slept together in the same bed for one and a half years, making Genghis's wife jealous.' - The Secret History of the Mongols."
It ended like so many love stories do: With one taking over a good chunk of Eurasia, and the other being brought before him to be executed. Genghis, the old softy, had to leave the room while his old pal was being killed. A shocking show of sentimentality, considering he killed his brother over a fish when he was thirteen or so.
ENOUGH ABOUT GENGHIS KHAN!
I really think it's important that more people watch General Hospital and talk to me about how adorable Patrick and Robin are. I don't know why I find them so cute, but I do. I want them to bicker and fight viruses together and I want one of them to fall victim to the man-made mutant strain of encephalitis (these are all words that have often been used on GH recently), and I want the other to stand by all nervous, and wonder Why He/She Did Not Realize How Much He/She Mattered. Is that so much to ask? Is it? I'm being forced to watch Emily pant after Sonny! Give me something, GH! I've given you almost eleven years of uninterrupted viewing! Have you no reciprocal loyalty?

Date: 2006-02-09 06:31 am (UTC)Anyway, here are the spoilers I've found: There's a lot of stuff out there and I can't tell how much of it is accurate - partly because this virus storyline is moving so fast! But here's what I've got (note that I'm including almost exclusively spoilers for the storylines I watch - hence very little Emily or Sonny stuff).
-Sam is going to turn out to be someone's long-lost daughter (of course), and right now the rumors are split between: Alexis's, Holly's (she was on the show ages ago and is coming back in a couple weeks), or Nikolas's twin. I'm rooting for Alexis and Sam as mother/daughter, myself.
-Tony, Danny, and Courtney (huzzah!) are going to die from the man-made mutant strain of encephalitis (MMSOE).
-Maxie is going to have a heart attack becuase of the MMSOE and Nikolas will try to save her! Does this mean impending romance? I think they're running out of actresses for Tyler Christopher or something.
-Lulu will have a crush on Dillon. (I heart Lulu, and I heart Dillon, but for some reason am unsure of them together. But Georgie and Dillon have gotten kind of old for me. I don't know.)
-Carly is going to be purposefully injected with the MMMSOE!
-And Robin will also get the MMMSOE, which will (I hope) lead to many woeful glances from Patrick and angsty scenes with her father, or something. But this is complicated by the fact that Liz will think that Lucky has died at some point next week, and will turn to Patrick for comfort, and there will be kissing! I am hoping this will be used only as a cheap dramatic device to make Robin realize how much she really likes Patrick. Because I've totally gone OTP on Robin/Patrick.
-Oh! I just read something saying that Carly would help Jax raise Courtney's baby (I love this).
-Also, the person behind the MMMSOE may be Helena Cassadine. Awesome!

Eeek about Lulu/Dillon (also, hello, stepsiblings. LOL), but Robin/Patrick/Liz could be interesting. Although it speaks poorly of Liz to be kissing a guy because she thinks her beloved hubby is dead. But there's not much good to say about Liz anyway, so, well, bring it on. LOL
Thanks for these. *g*
