Cure for a bad mood

Do you ever find yourself in a bad mood, whether due to unruly kids, work-induced anxiety, rush-hour traffic woes, or the like? Well my friends, I have the solution for you, and it's available to those who subscribe to cable TV.

The solution is called Telemundo (Mexican TV network) evening soap-opera dramas in Spanish. It is entirely too difficult to wear a frown when watching a melodramatic male get face-slapped by an obviously furious female. Perhaps he cheated on her? Or maybe she was just cut out of the will? Was she informed that her dress makes her look fat? Who knows! I can't understand a thing they're saying, but boy do they talk fast! Dramatic zooms add to the fun, as do devious old men with long mustaches with one eyebrow raised above the other.

Anyway...

Matt
