God has, in fact, forbade you to make jokes, Joe. I spoke with him the other day. He says it's nothing personal, but as he put, "Dem's just da rules."
By the way, people, I may not end up using Joe as a broker (because he does Manhattan mostly and I think I'll end up in Brooklyn) but he helped me out by giving me a nice low-down on the whole real estate scene.
So if you need real estate brokerin': Go Joe!
P.S. Or Tracy. But Tracy seems to be constantly drunk, so... I dunno.

Porter,
That explains A LOT.
I mean, a REAL LOT.
Thanks for letting me know.
P.S., If anyone else out there is a broker, and wants to take PTOLEMY off my hands, I'll pay YOU a comission to find him an apartment. He is very embarrasing, and quite difficult to work with.
I would say that was a joke, but we all know that can't be the case. Can it?
Hmmm...

Wait, Wait don't leave Delabarre. Come back... Ok,you can be the lucky Card Girl this time and I'll be the ref for this event instead. For I just happen to have a whistle on hand here. I bet you would look awfully cute in tights and a leotard. I'm sure Porter cares for you,we ALL care for you. Here's my e-tissue,now just wipe those little itty bitty e-tears away. Why should we have Demblowski,when we can have The Great Delabarre instead? You are one cool dude yourself,ya know. How about we just leave Dembloski out of this? Both me and you can run the show instead. Now can we please put the fight ring back in to place where it belongs and get this show on the playground going already. Geez Oh Weez,Already!
I got this in an email - I have no idea who these people are
A new roomie just backed out with two days notice. What a gentleman. So, If you have always fantasized about living in Astoria in a lovely three bedroom at the end the N/W line, now is your chance.
Great neighborhood. Full Kitchen. Shared back Porch. Nice Living room. The bedroom is nice. Hardwood floors. The apartment would be shared with a nice, laid back couple. Please, be sane, reasonable, responsible and have a favorite episode of the Golden Girls. $520 a month plus $520 deposit. Gotta move quick. Everything must go!
Showing the place this afternoon. Possibly tomorrow.
Please e-mail with any questions.

i'm not looking, but i couldn't resist!
my favorite GG episode is "What a Difference a Date Makes":
Dorothy gets a call from an old friend - the man who stood her up for her senior prom. John Nerritti is in town and wants to see her. Despite Sophia's insistence that Dorothy should let the past rest, Dorothy devises her revenge: she'll accept the date, then tell John she forgot about it. But Dorothy's plan to make John crumble backfires. She takes one look at him and is soon sitting in a Medieval restaurant enjoying his company. After asking Dorothy if he can escort her to a prom she's chaperoning the next week, John refutes a misconception Dorothy has held for years: John did show up to take Dorothy to their prom, only to be thrown out by Sophia. Blanche's wedding anniversary approaches, along with her yearly tradition of having her picture taken in her wedding dress. However, to fit into it this year, Blanche must diet. She decides to try the Drink-It-Off plan, one sensible meal and two diet shakes a day. After Rose eats her sensible meal one day, Blanche loses control and calls her a "babbling, bubble-headed, bleach blonde baboon." After a week of suffering for all, Blanche manages to fit in her bright red wedding dress. Rose takes the picture, but notices as Blanche leaves the room that the zipper has split. Snapping a picture of the retreating Blanche, Rose notes, "Baboons never forget." Although it was forty years ago, Dorothy cannot forgive Sophia for what happened on that prom night. If Sophia hadn't sent John away, she may not have gone out with Stanley Zbornak and gotten pregnant. Later, John informs Dorothy that he thinks Sophia was right in throwing out the rude, poorly dressed kid who came to pick up Dorothy, and by doing that, Sophia made him look at himself and change. Considering this, Dorothy apologizes to Sophia, telling her she understands that we make the best decisions we can with what we know. Peace restored, Dorothy "tells Ma" about the prom she finally got to go to with John Nerretti.

I'm sorry too...A very good episode, Risa, but what about Twice in a Lifetime?
"Buzz Mueller, St. Olaf's heppest cat, comes to visit Rose and rekindles the romance that ended when he left her to join Spike Jones' band. When Buzz asks her to go with him and his band to Europe, she is forced to choose between Miles and Buzz, just as shehad been forced to choose between Charlie and Buzz 40 years earlier.
Meanwhile, Sophia is running around with a new "in" crowd, and when Dorothy questions their activities and gives Sophia a curfew, Sophia protests by moving out.
As Rose struggles with her decision, the ladies discuss the hold a first love can have on you. The following day, Blanche and Dorothy visit Sophia in her new home — a penthouse apartment with a maid — to convince her to move back. When Dorothy still won't agree to let her stay out late with her friends, Sophia refuses to move home. Miles confronts Rose about their future, and she explains that she needs more time. When she asks Buzz for more time, he suggests he go to Europe and come back for her. Realizing he had made and broken that promise before, she breaks it off with him and when a jealous Miles barges in and demands she stop seeing Buzz, she happily jumps into the "jungle cat's" arms. Sophia returns, realizing Dorothy was right, the "in" crowd is too wild, and warns, "If anyone asks, I was here last night."'

purnell, with all due respect, are you kidding me? you would pick a rose episode as your fave? you know that dorothy had all of the juicy plotlines!
besides, if you wanna pick a great rose episode, you gotta go with the MEATY ones, like "High Anxiety"
The ladies must band together like never before when they discover that Rose is addicted to a drug prescribed for her 30 years ago for a back injury. Although Rose at first refuses to think that she's overdone the prescription, or that she could possibly be addicted to the drug prescribed by the doctor, she finally accepts the fact that she becomes a "crazy person" without it. The ladies stay up with her all night trying to help her kick the habit. The sun rises without a pill having been taken, but Rose breaks down later and takes one on the sly. Sophia, meanwhile, has been asked by the owner of the "Little Slice of Sicily" pizzeria to be in a national commercial. Dorothy is also recruited once the commercial's director finds he's got a mother-daughter team available. However, showbiz proves too tempting for Dorothy, who can't seem to stop "improving" her lines. She gets herself demoted to the role of waitress. Then Sophia, after tasting the pizza - or rather, "this slime on a shingle" - spits it out and leaves the commercial altogether: "There are two things a Sicilian won't do. Lie about pizza and file a tax return." Rose finally accepts the fact that she must call a drug rehab center to get over her addiction. She makes the call herself, and a month later comes home free of the "monkey" on her back.

Risa--you know I like you, but if you're looking for a meaty Rose episode, none is thicker than "72 Hours." Get with it.
Rose receives a letter from the hospital where she had her gall bladder removed, stating she might have been exposed to blood containing HIV antibodies and she should come in for an AIDS test. The ladies accompany her to the hospital, where she checks in with a fictitious name — Dorothy Zbornak. A very frightened Rose is comforted by Blanche, who explains that she too had the test and knows what Rose is going though. After checking out fine physically, Rose finds out she must wait three days for the test results and cries, "How am I going to get through the next seventy-two hours?"
Meanwhile, Dorothy is involved with a "Save the Wetlands" organization and the ladies decide to have a celebrity auction to gain recognition and support for the diminishing wetlands.
Rose is unable to sleep so she takes an all-night spin to Alabama and picks up an autographed playbill for the auction. When she realizes that Jamie Farr has not yet sent the dress he promised, she gets hysterical and the ladies realize how traumatic waiting for test results can be. They discuss times when they've had to wait and were afraid, then vow to help Rose through whatever comes along, even though, as Sophia points out, when the disease is so close to home it's scary. The 72 hours finally over, they all go to get Rose's results and find out she is fine. With high spirits, they march off to the celebrity auction together, certain it will be a big success — "Ma stuffed and mailed over five hundred invitations." "Stuffed?" Sophia asks.

oh, it is gotten with - believe me.
purnell, you are my true soul mate - when posting, i debated between "drugs rose" and "aids rose" in my head and hoped you would pick up where i left off, and you did.
is it possible to get a school night slot where we just wax about the golden girls for a half an hour?

Hey, you guys, thanks for all the help. And Shannon is right: the barbeques will commence soon!
Also, Risa and Justin: I read through each and every description posted. I know that they were cut-and-pasted from some GG episode history website, but while reading, I liked to think that you had each typed out the episode descriptions from memory. Oh, and is GG available on DVD?
See you all soon,
Porter
