Back in April, ABC announced that it was going to cancel the long-running daytime soap operas All My Children and One Life to Live. While clearly devastating news, I haven’t been home during the day in about, oh, 22 years, so I did not feel this news pertained to me, nor did I think I’d be talking about it now, a month later. However, this has apparently come as quite a blow to someone in my apartment building.
When I first saw this flyer (poster? aggressive propaganda?) taped to the wall in my front entrance earlier this week, I thought it said “Save Seals.” I like seals, so I guess I was fine with it. The acronyms were unintelligible to me, and I didn’t really give it much thought after that. But yesterday, coming home from what was once again an awesome Zumba class, groceries in hand and struggling to find my keys, I gave the sign a second glance. “Save Soaps AMC and OLTL!” I went back and forth about publishing this phone number, but ultimately determined this person is asking for it.
