Okay, here it is, the BIG update. I'm sorry I haven't put one up in so long but I've been feeling poorly. Jill was approached by Michael Crawford, attorney (who was sent by Katherine Chancellor to ruin her settlement with John). He told her of the plan to hurt her and she hired him anyway. She is still trying to get into Brad's pants (or any other young guy she meets). Lauren has finally learned the truth about Shawn Garrett!!!!!!!! Lauren accidentally found her way into Shawn's apartment while he was out and discovered his radio (for the bug in her apartment). He walked in on her and showed her a radio transmitter which, when he activates it, signals a henchman of his to do something planned to Paul. The first time he threw a brick through Paul's office window. Shawn told Lauren that if she tells Paul anything or tries to warn him or do anything to defy him (Shawn) that Paul might get very hurt. He told her that she would ANYTHING that Shawn told her to. In a fit of desperation Lauren tore up the apartment and found his bug and disposed of it. This may spell trouble for Paul. Victor found the chemist that helped Jack with the stolen perfume formula but got no concrete proof out of him. When he confronted Jack with some facts and some crafty lies, Jack threatened to sue Mergeron if Victor kept pushing the issue. This made Victor so angry he belted Jack in the face (and left a beauty of a bruise!). Still outraged, Victor talked Nikki into quitting her modeling job at Jabot. When faced with this, Jack squealed to her about Victor and Ashley's night together in Corsica. This devestated Nikki (although I don't know why considering that she had hopped into bed with Jack just two months before). Now she is having Ashley over with Matt for dinner. Won't that be fun! In response to the inquiries about Jack and Terry Lester, Terry Lester had asked CBS for more money and more time off from Y&R to do other projects. He has done several TV movies and was even on $25,000 Pyramid! He settled with CBS and is back, as is Jack, obviously. Next update on 10/23 (Hopefully). -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Howard Moskovitz AT&T Info. Systems attunix!howard

I just read this weekend that Terry Lester (Jack) re-signed with Y&R for a deal worth one million dollars. Is that the highest daytime soap pay, or does anyone know of someone making more? Denise University of Illinois The Super Computing Illini

Terry isn't about to leave Y&R, it's his meal ticket; remember that he has been with the show since day 1. That's almost 20 years!!!!! -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Howard Moskovitz AT&T Info. Systems attunix!howard

please tell me WHERE WHERE WHERE you got the idea that Terry Lester has been with the show for 20 years?????!!!!!! he's only around 30 or so..... do you mean in a capacity other than acting, perhaps??? but not for 20 years.... Y&R hasn't been on for that long!!!! i started watching it when i was in the 5th grade, and i am now a junior in college, and the Abbott family didn't show up till i was in high school.... -- Laurah Limbrick @ Johns Hopkins University csnet: ins_alal@jhunix.CSNET arpanet: ins_alal%jhunix.csnet@csnet-relay.ARPA ins_alal%jhunix@hopkins.ARPA uucp: {decvax,ihnp4,allegra}..!seismo!umcp-cs!aplvax!aplcen!jhunix!ins_alal bitnet: ins_alal@jhuvms "...now hounds of love are hunting I've always been a coward and never know what's good for me..."

I agree that Y&R hasn't been on 20 years (close, though) and that the Abbott family (including Jack) didn't show up for a few years, but if Terry Lester is "30 or so", I'm a variable precision logic. At the very least, he's 36, but my guess is 38. Denise University of Illinois The Super Computing Illini
