As the World Turns - MESSAGE BOARDS

So they say Anthony will be back on Aug 10 as James Stenbeck - can't wait to see him.

But what will his return mean to a memory free Paul and a distraught Barbara trying to help (and find) her son?

Could the wine journal in the cellar at Fairwinds mean that James has been alive and well and living in the wine cellar all this time? We know about the tunnels under the Snyder Farm - could James have tunnels all over under Oakdale and has been living in these tunnels all these months? Will be interesting to see where he's been and why he-yet again-faked his death (unless Paul will be the only one seeing his ghostly figure).

Let's see how the writers play this one out.

I read something about James return in SOD. Kind of a surprise but seems a tad far-fetched.

I wondered about the wine cellar! Seems no one has been there for like 1 1/2 years or more?? If they had gone down for a bottle wouldn't they see the journal? And who the heck keeps it so dust free if no one has been there?

Since they're really promoing Henry's mama revealing his dad's idenity I was thinking Henry Coleman Stenbeck, possible?

At the end of today's show, Paul found a man in a wheelchair and immediately said, "Dad?". If Paul doesn't remember Barbara being his mother, why does he remember James? Guess Paul isn't "memory-free" after all.

The chip was probably set up to retain the memory of James.

Oh I hope so! I am so ready for Paul to do something good!
