On the shocking season finale of "LIFE OF RILEY MCCARTHY"

For no reason at all, I've decided that this entry should be considered the end of my blog's summer season of episodes, even though it's not a TV series (and thus has no episodes) ... and I'll probably write something new again next week ...

Still, since things will be mildly different for a lot of people next week and because the blog seems to concern itself with one new problem or new boy-issue a week (Points to those of you asking, "Whatever happened to Snapshot?"), I figured that this provides me with opportunity for a wrap-up of this "chapter."

Since my favorite TV show season finales ever were those cliffhanger episodes of "Knots Landing," though, I have decided that the blog's season finale entry should end "with a bang," as they used to say. Indeed, several "characters" are facing major questions.

So, to all you fans (both of you), these and other questions will be answered next season ...

* Will Benjie's move into the new apartment go smoothly, or will tragedy occur on the frightening, "Exorcist"-ish staircase down to the new apartment during the move on Sunday? Will he be able to survive packing the Buford crackhouse apartment with help from his mother?

* Will Lupo and his boyfriend safely transplant themselves down to their new Savannah home, becoming semi-regular players in the drama that is this blog?

* Will Kacoon be able to cope through her son Midget's second week of Pre-K, or will thoughts that her little boy is all grown up drive her further into complete madness? Will she and husband Mike be able to find a new home for their family before her in-laws contribute to her downward spiral into insanity? And what will her hair color be next week???

* Will Vic's change of job schedule and emergency change of medication keep her around and involved in more blog stories next season? Will a change allow her to attend Saturday's Indigo Girls concert, or will those tickets go to waste? Will she ever see lesbian performers in concert, or will scheduling difficulties perpetually keep her from catching dykes on stage???

* And what exactly will happen to British correspondent Miss Gibson and her Nickname-less Mystery Visitor next week?

* Will Jenipher be able to push other people into fits of envy through her island wedding to Gabe in April? Or will her attendance at a Christina Aguilera-Justin Timberlake concert in Milwaukee on Labor Day change her fate forever???

These and hundreds of questions I haven't even thought of will be answered soon.

Tune in next season ...
