One of them is to ask what your character has for breakfast. So take a character from one of the big four and imagine what they have for breakfast on a regular basis.For example, I think Jock(Dallas) has bacon and eggs with coffee every morning. Every time Miss Ellie  raises the issue of cholesterol he completely dismisses the issue(he reminds me of my grandfather).   What do you think your favorite character had for breakfast? Don't say Sue Ellen would say, "Just coffee." That's the secret of how she always looks so good, even in her 70s: Teresa's coffee.</blockquote>
