My mom has watched one life to live since way before I was born. Interesting to see how character's lives go faster (I was born the same year a character on the show was...she's in her 30s now, I'm 24). I still bet dollars to doughnuts the "world" is gonna explode when the last episode airs.

I am puzzled as to why people watch soapies (see, I'm not being sexist) but I fail to see why women can't be more like a man (guess which show) and watch the footie like I do.
PS I got some beaut new boots but my wife didn't notice them so I took off all my clothes (except my new boots)went in and confronted her. She still didn't notice them so I said "look at what my dangly bits are pointing at"....she said "you should have got a new hat".

My husband's grandmother said, "They discontinued my shade of lipstick and my favorite shampoo. They no longer have the shows i like on TV and my hairdresser has retried. Pretty soon I will be discontinued!" (She was 92 at the time.)

Aw I love older folks like this! Sounds like someone with a great sense of humor!!

Bruno, we don't have "footie" here, but I park my lady bee-hind on the couch every Sunday during the NFL season.  My years in the UK taught me the glories of football and Formula 1 (which, unfortunately, is on TV here in the US at very inconvenient times).  I've been a baseball fan since I was 8.  I'm currently watching the NBA finals.  I've discovered a real appreciation for ice hockey.  I love my sports, but I want my soap back, too. :'(

The biggest, most-crazed fan group of soap watchers I've ever met were all guys from my college dorm.  They all watched "Days" every day and got mad if anyone called or interrupted them during the show!  Not that they didn't watch sports, too - but that soap ruled their schedules.
