We've all been on the site long enough now to have an input on this one....If Connecting Singles were to become a Soap Opera...what would you give it as a name?

BTW anyone know why they are called "soap operas"...??

No clue on a name, but I found your answer regarding the origin of "soap operas" on google, citing:

"The shows for the most part in the early days were, of course, geared toward housewives, given the fact that they were home during the day. What did housewives do in those days? Laundry. Thus, the soap companies attached themselves to these programs and were usually the primary sponsors, sometimes even getting recognition in the show titles...which would have been something along the lines of "Palmolive presents All My Children" or some such."

You should copyright those before they end up show titles on Jerry Springer.

beautiful, pregnant, AND witty. Find out more about Windygirl tomorrow on Connecting Singles. That's actually a good soap name, too.

"OH Windygirl! How could you do this to me?! He was my mentor! MY TEACHER! And you gave him MY Angus Bacon Chedder and Ranch burger! NOOOOOOOOO!!!"
