This week in Brenda/Kelly news...

I will admit it. I kind of love Shannen Doherty a lot. And even Kelly has kind of grown on me over the years, if only for my secret, shameful guilty pleasure affection for What I Like About You. (whichbothJasonPriestlyandLukePerrygueststarredonanditwasawesomewhatever)

I don't know who to bequeath this story too. I'm at a bit of a loss. Beal would appreciate it, as would Amanda. And Vic. And anyone born in the late '70s/early '80s. That's a lot of people. Fine. I bequeath this post to an entire generation of females and some gay males. And some straight guys who are awesome. Happy?
