      J.B. and L.H. just have a chemistry that I have rarely seen...gay or straight! They are the ones that make you pull for Bette and Tina. Just to finally see a couple make it would be wonderful. I hope they can actually work throught their issues this time. Jodi and Better are just better off friends..Jodi will then be free to be with all of her women.
