soapie saga

Soapies are crazy.

No, wait. You knew that already.

For wont of a better intro, today (after taking a walk - bravo Jess!), I flicked on the tv. Only to see Bold and the Beautiful.

In my high school days, I used to be addicted to Bold and the Beautiful. It was the days when Amber was with Rick and she was pregnant, but it wasn't her baby, but it died anyway, so she stole her cousin's baby, incidently born on the same night, in the same backwater town that Amber came from...

But anyway. Walked in. Bold and the Beautiful. Yada, yada, yada.

What I saw on the screen was bizarre. Ridge was getting married to Brooke. Again.

It seems that the whole thrust (tee hee innuendo!)of the show even from way back in 1987 was Ridge and Brooke. Ridge is a fashion designer for the family fashion house with insanely chiseled cheekbones. Brooke is a man-eater who has been after Ridge (and his brother and his father who turned out not to be his father) for the past 19 years.

Ridge has been married eight times. Four of these marriages has been to Brooke, three of these to the ever-so nice Taylor. He's an indecisive fellow, our Ridge.

Ok, I'll get to the point

Ridge should move to Utah, become a bigamist, have his cake and eat it too.
