An L.A. Christmas...

Twelve Actors Serving
Eleven Cell Phones Ringing
Ten Tourists Swooning
Nine Commuters Cursing
Eight Earthquakes Shaking
Seven Surfers Surfing
Six Pools-a-Sparkling
Five Golden Rings
Four Hiding Agents
Three Yachting Surgeons
Two Mouse Ears
and a Seagull in a Palm Tree!

...Thanks Carolyn for the laughs!

Simple Formula for a Riveting Soap Opera Plot

Flipping back and forth between soap operas for two minutes yielded this simple formula:

"Go away. Wait! Come back. I must protect my baby. I promise I'll never change. That's what you did the second time I almost died and was in a coma. Don't leave me. I'm trusting you for the millionth time even though I know you'll just leave me for her. Why did you stab me? I'm doing this to protect you. You say you love me so it's ok. I'm very rich and attractive and still depressingly unsatisfied with life so I feel sorry for myself because I'm still completely helpless even though I'm the founder of a prestigious company that needs my attention right now so I can't begin to tell you how complicated it is to be so beautiful. You have to trust me. Look me in the eye and tell me you love my cleavage."
