Before he goes totally blind, and you heard him say
he will, Adam Wilson should write a book How to talk
With Complete Idiots. Not only because of late he's
been spilling his guts to Sharon Collins, but that
he would waste time working under half-brother and
sister, Nick Newman and Victoria Hellstrom. Add to
that his repeated falling on knee pads before daddy
Victor Newman swearing that if it's the last thing
he does in life he will be redeemed for his evil
doings and, apparently, Victor will bless him
because there's a lot of that going around lately
what with Victoria this week needing daddy's
blessing too.
It's all very strange because outside needing Victor
in his corner why would Adam need to work? Blind as
a bat, he could sit back and collect Social Security
disability. Or he could sit back and do nothing but
live off sympathy and empathy. Close knit family the
Newmans claim they are, with a blind family member,
the likes of Victoria and Nick would be falling all
over themselves to fill Adam's dark world with
light. Gosh, they might even get him a seeing eye
dog except dogs in Genoa City have shorter than
usual life spans. To this day nobody has asked, and
the Abbotts haven't said, what happened to Fisher
the dog. Banging around in the big Carlton home all
alone with her son, Sharon might have used Fisher as
a guard dog so she'll know when creepy people drop
by without calling first.
Granted, Sharon's been way too much a busy girl to
worry about the family pet. Throwing her marriage to
Jack Abbott away, she had sex with the male thing
very married to Jack's former wife and got knocked
up. Then she developed kleptomania, went somewhat
insane, was ordered to a nut house where her baby
was stolen and a feeling sorry for her loss court
shaved a few days off her 30-day sentence. Within
hours of losing another child, her third, Sharon was
out and about and moving in the Carlton home.
Claiming she attends "bereavement" meetings at a
nearby church, yet to actually be seen at said
meetings so that she might learn from others who are
grieving, Sharon doesn't grieve like normal people
which is as it should be because she ain't normal.
She never has been and probably never will be as
evidenced by her employment desire.
For months Sharon hasn't worked. Like so many other
rich people in the city, she doesn't need to work,
and yet there's this image to be cast that rich
people work too. Since moving out of the Abbott
mansion, Sharon was holed up in a very expensive
hotel suite. There was never any question as to who
was picking up the tab for the suite and the
expensive meals taken at the hotel's restaurant. Not
once was Sharon seen worrying, like millions of
Americans, about whether her unemployment benefits
would run out. One thing you'll never see is Sharon
clipping coupons. If things really get bad she can
blackmail Jack and Victor much the way the Bardwells
did, got away with it and a host of other crimes.
Through all her recent hard times, let's not forget,
assuming Rafe Torres doesn't work for free like
all-purpose attorney Michael Baldwin does, Sharon
had money for a lawyer. Coincidently, Rafe was
Adam's lawyer too and to learn that Rafe is queer
nearly caused Sharon to discharge something
reptilian from between her legs. The horror to think she
was in the same room with a gay man.
Back to Adam's book for a moment, since that was the
concept for this column, his confession, that he
seduced Rafe was so, so "wrong" and he knew
straights and gays don't mix, goes to show that the
real queers can't be easily moved away from their
ridiculous and paranoid misconceptions by facts to
the contrary because, well, they're facts, and who
can dispute those?
Idiots can, that's who. It's the logical appeal to
reason that there's no difference between Adam
having sex with, say Sharon, and who wants to bet
that won't happen soon, and Rafe that's doomed to
failure simply because in the world of idiots facts
are lies and truth is always questionable, whereas
hysteria and alarmism resulting in underbelly warts
are the only things to be relied upon.
