Thank you, Cookie. Nowhere (that I know of) has it been said that Angela's addicted to Soma. But her next-door neighbor maintained that he had seen her looking like a zombie ("Somatose," he said) more than once while she was on the Soma. Neighbor also said he'd seen her fall face-forward into a plate of food after taking Soma.

Varina insists that this neighbor is unworthy of belief. I say the neighbor is too dumb to make all that up on the spur of the moment, with hot TV lights blazing in his face. It is a fact that the neighbor knows Angela personally. We don't.

Angela was reportedly once convicted of forging or uttering false checks. Seems someone wouldn't resort to a felony unless they were desperate for money--like an addict. Of course, that was years ago. But that sort of behavior is certainly common with addicts.

RICCI: I did not at the time in question. I got in a severe car accident about 18 months ago. I was given the proper medication to take on an as-needed basis, and I've just been trying to recover from that.

Comment - Sounds to me like she was addicted. I would bet big 'as-needed' was in actuality 'every night'. And I be she's 'trying to recover' because her doctor is scrambling to get her off them because of his liability of having her on this narcotic for a year and a half.

What could speak more highly of him? Everyone knows if it's tall varina says it's short. If it's hot varina says it's cold. varina is consistant, she is going to argue against anything and everything that is obviously true.

or uttering false checks.

NO ONE uses this term unless they're in law enforcement, an attorney or a news reporter. You've blown your cover.
