Imaginary advice columnist Waldo Mellon offers humor and wisdom as a balm for the anxieties of life. Dear Abby, Dear Ann Landers... make room for Dear Waldo, the imaginary advice columnist of the woes and foibles of human existence from screenwriter Steve Adams. "Dear Waldo, "My moron brother Lance is obsessed with the idea that there's millions and millions of other planets with life on them. How do I break the news to him it isn't so? "Sincerely, "Bruno" "Dear Bruno, "Before I answer your question, I'd like to point out that there is no such thing as a moron or an idiot or an imbecile.
