This being Labor Day - and strange that anyone would
celebrate the fact that we are mere slaves working
for the Man for the better part of the year - Genoa
City is closed. It's not so much for the holiday
that things have shut down as it is that so many
apparently have nothing better to do than watch
tennis on TV.
For a publication in need of news, Labor Day
presents a challenge. The GCN does not have a staff
of employees engaged in in-fighting that we can
write articles about. We don't have slimy business
partners willing to expose their former and current
relatives, or how Uncle Mark raped his 8-year-old
granddaughter and then raised the baby as his own
with the complete understanding and cooperation of
his wife, who later encouraged him to knock the girl
up again.
There are no stories of how Liza Van Horne stashed
her daughter in a boarding school and so lost track
of her she had no idea she'd returned an angry
child, trapped her employer's grandson in a
marriage, and then came to mom's place of employment
to celebrate said shotgun wedding.
And so, on a non-news days, we can only report what
may come to pass in the daze ahead.
You don't have to believe it, but we're getting
reports that J.T. Hellstrom is growing tired of his
bitchy wife, Victoria. You can't really blame him.
You knew the marriage wouldn't last. All the talk
about children needing both their parents is just
that, jibber-jabber. Like politics, promises made
are never kept. The birth of Reed Hellstrom, miracle
as it was, will not hold the Hellstrom marriage
together once J.T. the hunkmonkey falls for - wait
for it...
Tyra Hamilton!
The hell, you say? Look, when news breaks we fix it.
The GCN has heard that for whatever reason, perhaps
because Victor Adam Newman will wake up and fire the
punk because as security chief at Newman Enterprises
J.T. poses a huge risk now that Victoria has been
fired, J.T. will start hanging around the Indigo.
He'll take a liking to Tyra when she returns from
New Hampshire and if there's one thing hunkmonkeys
like more than anything it's old women saddled with
11-year-old kids, or however old Sister It is today.
