And it's all tied up so neatly...

Have you ever marvelled at those succinct little plot synopses in the TV listings page? They are particularly a hoot when the author has to tackle the long list of improbable events that comprise a single episode of a daytime soap opera. Here's my attempt at summarizing a little drama that played out on the Web today:
"When Carol makes fun of Kris and Steve's canned food drive, comparing the husband and wife team to Barbie and Ken, Jay calls Carol a fool, a hypocrite, and a disgrace to the real estate profession. Carol's boss Glenn fires her and apologizes to Kris but leaves the offending post for the world to see as proof of his passion for transparency."

You guys packed a lot of drama into one day. I know this was not an entirely laughing matter, but when you distill it down to two sentences, it seemed appropriate to file it under the "humor" category. Glad you saw the spirit there.
