This blog post is about Friday’s episode where Maya’s father had nothing
but awful things to say about her to Nicole but as soon as he got to the
mansion, he seemed to change his mind after just a little nudging from his
wife.
What is Maya's Dad thinking?
It is possible he is seeing a cash cow in his son turned daughter? He did say he was out of work again and that
his losing jobs was Maya’s fault. Maybe
he thinks he has lost jobs because of her that now she owes him something. I would like to think he is being sincere but the turnaround was just too
fast and too strange including saying, “I came to see my little girl and then
hugging her.
Maya's Mom
What did you make of that? I want to say thank you to the people that are reading my blogs.

The highlight of today’s show has to be Katie and Bill with their
interaction with Liam and Wyatt and the shocked expressions when the boys told
them that Maya is transgender. They
asked the boys, “Do you know what transgender is?” We guess they think they are kids because most
folks do know what transgender is or at least they should.
Rick has his phone set to alert him if there is breaking news about Forrester!
In the meantime, Rick has his woman up at big bear getting all ready to
pop the big question. He has no clue
what is coming but the viewer now knows that Rick has his phone set on ringing off
when there are press hit alerts by his company so that is obviously how Rick is
going to find out. Maya’s transgender
friend was very afraid for Maya. Is Rick
going to flip out mentally and physically and attack Maya?
Could Katie and Bill look any more shocked and a little bit grossed out?
Katie does not want Bill to use this information but Bill is a news guy and
this is big news. The show ends with
Bill making a call saying they have a huge story to break. Funniest line of the day is when Bill said this about the headline and this
being front page news: “Ignorance is bliss even if it makes a man a miss.” Thank you for reading our soap blog. We will keep writing as long as you keep reading. We are not always going to

LGS is astounded that Ridge went right to Eric and Brooke with the news
about Maya. In all fairness to Ridge, he
did try talking to Rick about it but it was obvious that Rick was not going to
hear him no matter what he said. The facial expression on Brooke’s face was priceless. She had a look of
true shock and worry on her face because she has to realize that if this is
true, it would send her son over the edge immediately.

In contrast, Eric didn’t look shocked or dumfounded. He just looked dumb. Maybe he is not quite getting it or maybe he
just doesn’t believe Ridge and thinks this is some kind of ploy for Ridge to
get the company from Rick? Do you think that Eric believed Ridge?
Image captured from B&B aired 5-5-15
Do you think that Brooke believed Ridge? Will they go to their son about this and do what they have to go like Mama
Bear and Papa bear taking care of baby bear?
Our Special project
Before I go I wanted to share my
special project with you. If you have a
minute, please read, this little boy will pull at your heartstrings.
Super Storm Sandy didn’t just
change lives up North. The aftermath of
that storm caused a huge branch to snap in the playground of a day care where
this precious little 2 year old boy was playing. That little boy’s name is Tripp
Halstead. That branch caused traumatic
brain injury as it literally crushed a large section of Tripp’s skull which
damaged his brain.
The doctors really didn’t think he
would survive but he did. After 6
months, and to date, 16 surgeries, this little boy is now 4 years old and
growing, trying to talk, smiling and moving his arms and legs. He is featured in my new book, “The Traveling
Jalapeno’s Meet Tripp Halstead,” which will be available on Amazon soon. I have written a song that offers hope and
inspiration that where there is life, there can be a miracle. Tripp inspired the song and it is called,
“The Little Boy That Could – Tripp’s Song.”
That song was released on iTunes on April 28, 2015. 1/2 the proceeds from downloads are being
donated to Tripp for his nursing care that insurance does not cover. You can get to that download button in the link in the YouTube Video! Help us get this song to #1 on iTunes next
week when it is released by downloading it immediately. For a sneak peek/listen to the song, see the YouTube promo.

LGS has been waiting for the moment when someone who would do something with
the information would have the information that Maya was born a man. You Go Carter for telling Ridge the truth. Now that Ridge knows the truth, perhaps he
can do something to get Rick out of power.
Stefanie was the power behind that company for years and her son is Ridge
but he was only Eric’s stepson and Eric has surely been treating him like
it. Ridge said in today’s episode that
this company should have been his legacy.
That is what his mother wanted for sure.
Now, not only is it not his legacy, he has become a mere employee in the
company.

He was right to quit and he did it very professionally and
eloquently. As he told Eric, it is his prerogative
to have Rick in charge but it is also his choice to not work there
anymore. What do you think Ridge will do with the information? Will he use it to take over the company with
the Spencer’s or will he go quietly with it to Eric and Brooke and tell them
what is going on? Is it too late for
Eric to save the company since it was his bad judgment that put Rick in charge in
the first place?
Image captured from B&B aired 5-1-15
Did anybody notice Brooke holding Eric’s hand today? Looks like she will be heading over to a more
age appropriate man, when she is with Eric, she is the young chick. Our special project

LGS was loving the scenes between Pam and Charlie. Pam asked Charlie to help her discover what
Maya’s secret could be. When super sleuth Charlie puts 2 and 2 together and tells her what he thinks after they find the
estrogen, Pam refuses to believe that Maya was a male or that she is transgender. The facial expression this actress made were/are priceless as seen in these
photos. The question remains, how it is
that Charlie has once again solved the mystery?
It was Charlie that figured out that Quinn has pushed Ivy off the bridge
in Paris. It was Charlie who figured out that Wyatt was
the jewel thief and once again Charlie has solved this mystery.
Perhaps they are not paying him enough at Forrester Creations as he is the only one
with some common sense.
Image captured from episode aired 4-28-15
Will Charlie come forward and tell Wyatt what he suspects even though Pam
told him not too? LGS thinks he will come forward and tell somebody of authority soon. Our Special project

Before she played the character of a newly revealed Transvestite, the
actress Karla Mosley was doing commercials.
This commercial for the Cold sore virus caused by Herpes Medication
Abreva is one that is still playing and active today. You can see her taking a swing in this commercial like a professional
boxer. Perhaps this is where Bell came up with the
idea of her to portray a Trans on the show? Nah, we doubt it but this guess is as good as any when it comes to trying to figure out what the BELL FAMILY is thinking with their story-lines.
LGS thought this was going to be a highly emotionally charged story-line
but at this point, it is a dud. Carter is now aware that Maya was a man so he
has to come to the conclusion that he was sexual with someone who used to be a
man. Will Carter be okay with it and
still want Maya back proving to her that he was always the man she should have
stayed with? When supposedly was all
this surgery done and who paid for it since she was living on the streets and
into criminal activity?
Isn't funny how when Maya was going through the story-line of working on
the sitcom with Carter, and when she went to bed with him, there was never any
flashbacks or thoughts of her worrying about how different it would be to be
with a man.

In fact, the writers are trying to make the viewers now believe that the
baby she mourned for was someone she was just a guardian over. Guess what viewers, Guardians are not able to
sign adoption papers and give somebody else’s baby away. That would have had to have been done by the
bio-parents. Just more floored thinking
and writing by the B&B staff.
Image captured from B&B YT channel episode aired 4-3-15
LGS depends on B&B to be the one soap that never makes any sense and
writes exactly what they want whether or not it could ever be feasible to the
viewers. If this was supposed to be such
a teaching storyline, when are they going to get on with it? All the viewers are getting is a lot of
whining and blackmail. MOVE IT ALONG
B&B! Your big reveal is a big bust.
LGS would rather watch Karla in this Abreva commercial or Quinn making sharp objects and planning revenge
on Brooke than see anything that has to do with Maya/Nicole and their bad hair
pieces. I want to say thank you to the people that are reading my blogs.

There seems to be a lot of confusion going around the internet right now
where people think they heard Karla Mosley say in the interview she did with
Brad Bell that she is transgender. In
fact, what Karla said and I quote, “Why me as a CISGENDERED woman,” so that is
where the confusion is coming from.
Image captured from B&B YouTube Channel air-date 3-18-15
The word Cisgender is not widely used and she says it quickly in the
video we have embedded in this blog post but she most definitely says, “cisgendered.” Karla Mosley is happily married to a man and
she is a woman, born a woman and remains a woman in real life. The definition of Cisgender is a word that applies to the vast majority of
people, describing a person who is not transgender. If a doctor announces,
“It's a girl!” in the delivery room based on the child's body and that baby
grows up to identify as a woman, that person iscisgender.
We would love to hear what the viewers are thinking about all of this
right about now?
