I just had to share an interesting experience with you all.  It's a very sad
tale.

	Today on our way home from church, there were police everywhere.  I asked my
sister what was going on (they have a scanner), and eventually we pieced this
story together.  
	There were two young children (12 and 14, and we think related) who had
gotten upset with someone (why or over what we're not sure), and decided to
take matters in their own hands.  They created a bomb out of flairs and
gunpower and a battery, and placed it under this person's Brono.  This could
have turned out much worse, except that the police just happen to cruse by
and catch them placing it under the vehicle.  The kids, seeing the police,
took off running, and the police pursued and caught them.  They ended up
returning to the scene and having to call the bomb squad to remove the bomb.
 When they asked these kids where they learned how to make such a
contraption, the kids told them it was from the tv show McGyver (not sure how
it's actually spelt)!!  The last we heard, the kids were taken home, and when
the police returned to the home later to question them further, both the
children and the mother have "disappeared"  (we heard they hastly put some
clothes together and left).  Now they are looking for this family.

	Can you believe such?!!  It saddens me that things like this have become a
part of our everyday life, instead of the exception.  I have a three yr old
and I often wonder what's in store for his life.  And to think that they
learned all this from watching a tv show!!  Even the news today has become a
source for "how-to's".  
	I am sooo very thankful that Martha Williamson did not follow through with
the original idea for TBAA.  It is the one program that I believe instills
what tv should be all about.  While they touch on subjects such as abuse,
alcoholism, racism, violence, they do not promote it, by showing people how
to go about being these type of people, but instead show how someone can
change from such a life, to a life the way God

hopefully you all got my last message, as a footnote , i think the best 
thing to say t people when they say,about why see tells them she is amn 
angel? is twofold, she has to tell the truth and she knows who she is , 
but also when some people go on about it i say,simply this
Did you ever meet anyone that did not Want to belive in Angels.?
,
that will do the trick, while tbaa is on the lonelyness and quietness are 
not so bad and i forget for a while, 
i being a romantic love shows like tbaa and most people and girl around 
me are not into it here, they laugh instead, well the single ones do.
i am to quiet and conservative i guess, girls today only like guys that 
party and nightclub hard and get drunk all the time,
where as i like going for short walks and talking about tbaa and pride 
and prujudice and other 18Th and 19th centery romantic dramas
wishing you all well

Then it wouldn't have worked.  The people in charge of that show were 
always careful (I'm told) to fudge details so that stupid viewers (and 
yes, I consider anyone who'd take an obvious adventure-fantasy show like 
_MacGyver_ as a bible for bomb-making stupid) wouldn't be able to use 
the info to hurt themselves or others..

And MacGyver was always using his "contraptions" to *help* people and 
was fanatically non-violent, so while these kids may have watched the 
show, they obviously missed the point.

>	I am sooo very thankful that Martha Williamson did not follow 
>through with the original idea for TBAA. 

So am I, because it sounded intellectually insulting and vapid.

>  While they touch on subjects such as abuse,
>alcoholism, racism, violence, they do not promote it,

They don't just not promote it, they actually teach *against* it.

Your comparison makes it obviousl you never watched _MacGyver_, though. 
<G>  He was the most PC character in the history of TV, bar none.   
Whatever those kids "learned" from MacGyver, it was *not* that blowing 
up people is the way to solve your problems. (I've got a friend who is 
fanatical about this show, so I feel obliged to defend it.)

I don't know, though, that our society as a whole has gotten more 
violent. I think it's just, in part, that we hear more about it.  I 
mean, 100 yrs ago you only heard about what happened in your own town, 
maybe in the nearest big city.  Now, turn on the news or open a 
newspaper and you hear about every horror taking place around the world, 
in gruesome, technicolor detail.  Which is why I almost never watch the 
evening news.  The constant blather of disaster after disaster has a 
depressing effect on my attitude toward the world.

TBAA is a nice counter to that.  It shows humans (most of them) at their 
best, facing up to and dealing with their problems in ways that don't 
hurt other people, and reminds all of us that even people who seem 
pretty unpleasant on the surface (some of the barflys in the Wish 
episode) usually have a core of essential decency.  The good people *do* 
outnumber the bad in this world, and if TBAA helps all of us remember 
that, then I think it'll have done a great deal of good.

Subject: Re: TBAA and other tv shows

Since Diana asked about spelling, it's MacGyver.  And oddly enough, one of
the things they were careful to do on that show was to leave something out of
the 'bombs' and etc. so that nobody *could* make a bomb from a recipe they
got on the show.  I used to love to watch that show and try to work out what
was missing.  Which means either the bomb the kids built wouldn't quite work
or they got the actual information somewhere else. Interesting explanation
for them to give, tho.  

>what's in store for his life.  And to think that they learned all this from
watching a tv show!!  Even the news >today has become a source for
"how-to's".  

I agree that it is sad to see things like this, but I find it saddest that it
seems to have become acceptable to find a scapegoat like television (or
alcohol, or so many other things) to explain it away when we do something
wrong.  By using TV as an 'excuse' the kids managed to get many people
outraged at how irresponsible TV is instead of being outraged at how
irresponsible the kids were.  Attention was no longer focussed exclusively on
them and what they'd done, it was divided between them and a TV program.  The
information on *how* to make bombs is out there for anyone to find with a
little research.  Now, this would make an interesting TBAA episode, speaking
of eps we'd like to see.  :-)

Then again, this is one of the things I find truly remarkable about TBAA -
the fact that it is one of the few shows I have seen where the characters
always have to take responsibility for their lives, both the good and the
bad.   And when I say responsibility, I *mean* that.  They aren't expected to
beat themselves up over every little 'bad' thing they've done, nor are they
allowed to run and hide from them.  They are expected to take responsibility
(with God's help) to improve things, and to avoid making those same mistakes
in the future.  Even to help other people avoid the same mistakes.  The show
is very realistic in portraying how destructive it can be to avoid
responsibility *or* to dwell on our mistakes to the point of incapacitating
ourselves.  

All IMHO, of course.  :-)

Take care,

Jennie

Subject: Angel Story :)

Hello,

My name is Amber Green.  This is the first time that I have wrote 
anything on here.  I am 19 and have watched the show from the start.  
I am a Biology Major at University at Lincoln.

This is a story that was told to me by a friend:  If you do not 
believe in angels after reading this you might.

A little girl at the age of 2 was digosned with cancer.  When the girl 
was in the hospital at the age of 5 because of complications with the 
cancer.  Her mother was talking to the girl about dieing and not to be 
afraid of it. Trying to explain this to a 5 year old would have been 
hard.  The mother had left the room because the girl was going to go 
to sleep for the night.  The next morning the little girl woke up and 
told her mother that she was no longer scare of dieing.  Her mother 
asked why?  The little girl said that a little girl in a pink dress 
that was an angel talked to me and told me not to be scare of death. 
The mother thought that the little girl had imagined it because of all 
the medicine that she was on.  The next day the little girl died.  At 
the cemetary where they buried her, the mother started to cry more.  
Right next to where her daughter was buried there was a grave stone 
with a little girl's picture on it and she was wearing a pink dress...
Had the little girl in the hospital seen an angel...

Yes, I feel that angels do exist and if you are even so lucky to see 
one on this earth you should feel really honored!!!

Bye,

Amber Green :-)

Subject: Tonight's ep-- nattering as I watch.

They never show the name. How annoying. <g>	

This is a fun ep.  I missed it first time around.  Lots of humor, like 
Ulysses' offering the Secret Service agent his bait, or Andrew's comment 
about Monica saying "Please" to the candy machine.

But *wow*! Monica can sure throw a good body block!  Where'd she learn 
that?  And Andrew wasn't exactly gentle with the gunman when he 
handcuffed him, was he?  I didn't know angels could play that rough! <g>
In fact, I almost didn't recognize him, between his hair being pulled 
back that tight and the way he reacted.

Interesting that watching Ulysses throw the fish back finally cracked 
through her shell, isn't it?

Her motivation's a little cliched (Daddy never paid attention to me, so 
I'm gonna fight to make everybody else notice me) but it also rings 
true.

<sigh>  And how did I know who was gonna get shot as soon as that gun 
went off?  Oh, well, I can forgive them for the predictable plot twists. 
 
Gee, she and Ulysses sure have hit it off, haven't they?

Hmmm... the Senator doesn't even ask how Ulysses is, does he?  I'd have 
expected him to at least ask, wouldn't you?  After all, the man was 
wounded in an attempt on his life.

And now Marty's finally gotten what she always wanted, she can admit she 
needed help to get there.  That's nice.

Hmmmm.... do you have any idea what the odds are that Marty's tissue 
would be compatible with Ulysses'? (Yes, I know, God can do anything.  
But the odds are simply incredible.)

Oh, so if Marty donates a kidney, she can't be bodyguard to the 
president?  That's interesting.  It makes a sort of sense, I suppose.
And it makes her dillema much harder.  Give up her dream or give up her 
friend.  Nasty choice.

Well, at least they mentioned that she was tissue-matched.  And I'm not 
at all surprised that Ulysses told her not to do it, but this being 
TBAA, it's almost certain she won't listen.  Eventually.

Oh, ****! Andrew in a white suit and a glow is *not* a good thing to see 
at this stage.

"My own personal angel.  And a woman.  Why?"  I love that! That is 
absolutely appropriate for Marty!

"I'm just an angel, Marty, I'm not God." And *that* is very Monica.

I love that little shrug Andrew gives before he leaves the room.  That 
"I'm not gonna be needed, and I'm *glad*" shrug.

Uh-oh.. is Hammond gonna turn out to be a jerk after all? (Silly me, 
this is TBAA!<G>)  Ooo... he's offering to "pull strings" for her.  And 
she's turning it down! Talk about rearranged priorities! <g>  Hmm... 
wouldn't she make a dynamite security officer? HEY, TBAA! How about a 
spin-off?  ;>

<sigh>  Good ep.

Wonder if they'll ever do a show where the human doesn't come around, 
and they (and the angels) have to live with the consequences? I could 
see Monica really beating herself up over failing her assignment. In 
fact, that would be a good place for the episode to start... the 
assignment having something horrible happen because they wouldn't listen 
to Monica, and Monica going all depressed over it.  Like in the bar, 
only worse. Then the rest of the episode could be Tess and Andrew (and 
Sam, and all sorts of other people) trying to convince her she's not a 
failure as an angel because she "lost one".

<duh> I'm slow tonight.  I just realized they *did* do this, sort of.  
In the John Ritter episode, where he played a teacher who was kidnapped 
by an ex-student.

But then, that wasn't really a failure, because it turned out all right 
in the end, didn't it? <g>

> Altho my favorite comment is the one I stated earlier:  Andrew to

Yes, I liked that line.  Also the look he used with it. <g>  John has 
such an expressive face, doesn't he?  And the symmetry of Monica at the 
beginning and  Andrew at the end asking "What good is going fishing if 
you don't catch fish?" was nice, too.  Judging by Tess's comment about 
having "all day", I'd guess our trio got a day off as a reward for 
succeeding with the assignment, wouldn't you? <g>

OK, I'll shut up and let the rest of you talk now. Probably. ;)

I guess that makes two of us "slowpokes", as I forgot too. <g>

Yes, I liked that line.  Also the look he used with it. <g>  John has=20

I just love all the expressions John gives to Andrew!! Especially the =

to her and the look on Andrew's face when she sort of added him after =
the fact.  *priceless*  I mean, I love Andrew and all, but it tickles me =
good when Monica or Tess "one ups" him, both his expressions and =

at the end, Monica had to "learn" that lesson first, but then it was her =
turn to "teach" it to Andrew (who is suppose to have more experience =

OK, I'll shut up and let the rest of you talk now. Probably. ;)
Awww come on, chat away..... it's not like there is a whole lot of =
talking tonight.  I wonder where everyone is?

The entire Promised Land pilot happened because the human didn't listen
to Monica.  (THERE!  I worked PL back into the list!  Bwa-ha-ha-ha!<g>)

Also remember the father/son on death row.  The father rejected Tess in
the past.  We didn't get to see it, but she told the story.

I've seen the TBAA shirts and coffee mugs for sale too, and the best part is
that the place that's selling them is from Minneapolis, MN!  So it would
probably wouldn't be all that far for me to try and find the place!

                                                                            A

Ok, so I'm a Dukes of Hazzard fan and I'm really excited about this Friday's
reunion movie.  I found a transcript where John was on AOL and he made the
following comment about Della:

Question:  When you worked on "Touched by an Angel," was Della Reece as nice
as she comes across on the TV?

SchndrJohn:  Yes, Della Reece is a very sweet lady with a wonderful voice and
a very calming spirit about her. I'm glad that you noticed that and believe
that her personality is one of the highlights of that show. And I love the
show!

Just thought y'all might be interested!

>The first time I saw this episode I didn't recognize Andrew either, I think
this was the first time I saw him with his hair pulled back.  And the
funniest comment was my Mom (who generally hates guys with long hair) saying
she thought he looked better with his hair pulled back!!  Sometimes I wonder
if I truely am my mother's child??!!  (I prefer men with their hair down :)). 

John/Andrew could be dressed like a punk-rocker, sport a mohawk, and have
his nose pierced, and he would *still* be adorable!!!  :)--

Love to All. . .and miles of smiles !   :)
