Ten Things I Learned from Soap Operas
- Most people are incredibly attractive.
- Amnesia is a widespread health problem.
- One should approach a sixth marriage with the conviction that this time it's for real. Just like the previous five.
- The leading causes of death among affluent Americans are murder, car accidents, and airplane crashes in remote tropical areas. Death by this third method is rarely permanently fatal.
- Most of the planet is populated by models, doctors, tycoons, and randy teenagers. There are also a few policemen to arrest them and clergymen to marry and bury them.
- You should not be surprised if previously unsuspected children show up from time to time.
- Many people have twins they do not know about. This can be handy.
- When in trouble, lie. You will always get caught at it, but this should not stop you.
- No temptation is ever successfully resisted.
- I really, really need to find a job.
