How ironic that Phyllis would find attempted murder
a thrill when it was she who ran down Paul Williams
and Christine 'Bug' Blair? Unfortunately, the
victims survived albeit Paul was temporarily left
with a malfunctioning penis. If she looks hard, for
the next cover Phyllis can feature an arsonist like
the one who turned Sasha Green into a crispy
critter.
For Phyllis, the decision to put a crazy bitch on
the cover was an easy one. Besides, the woman has
been drug-free for two weeks. Wouldn't that be the
cutest message? Done drugs? Tried to kill someone?
Then you too can be on the cover of a fashion
magazine. Ah, but Nick wasn't convinced. He doesn't
like reporting fashion, which is what fashion mags
do, he wants to set fashion trends! Might we suggest
then that Nick put on a dress. It could be said that
step-son Daniel Romalotti - with plenty of dresses
in his closet - would be a better cover choice, but
then I'd have to get into how Daniel took some
"courses" which made it possible for him to become a
photographer and artist overnight.
Getting back to the point, there is one you know,
Nick and Phyllis were torn. With the clock ticking,
whatever would they do? Hire an editor-in-chief to
make such decisions? You mean, run an ad and conduct
interviews? The hell you say. This is Genoa City.
Job interviews are for fools like Adam. It's so much
easier to just pick the first person who walks in
off the street.
And there she was! Nikki had a plan. She even solved
the can't find a photographer problem in less than
an hour. Damn, how does she do it? Because she's a
"genius". Gosh, why don't we hire Nikki? No
experience? Surely you jest. We don't have
experience either and we own the magazine. Okay
then, where did she go? Hello? Ma? Could you swing
back by the office? No, I can't tell you why on the
phone except it's important. Ah, you might want to
walk over. 'Cause your ass is fat! You're looking
like an old cow.
So it was that Nikki Newman Chow became
Editor-In-Chief of the magazine. No mention of
salary was made, the job is only temporary, but you
know that once Nikki gets her ass inside the door
it'll take a crane to haul it out.
In a related development, can you believe Sharon
volunteered her services at the local food bank? How
touching. How insulting that rich designing women
with their mansions and their meat-eating husbands
engaged in blackmail and other crimes would give a
single shit about the poor, homeless, hungry people.
As expected, there was no discussion between Sharon
and her "I've lost everything" wailing husband
sitting on the biggest stack of Newman money ever
about why there are food banks. No mention of using
some of that money to establish a clinic where those
without health insurance could obtain free medical
care. Nothing but a throw-away line, Sharon's
fleeting concern for the downtrodden was designed to
make her look like McCain/Palin rolled into one. We
know people are hurting, we know the economy is in
shambles, don't you worry about a thing. Sharon will
be signing autographs today at the food bank.
