We all know a great deal about REJECTION and rejection can be very painful. We normally learn about rejection when we are a child, but if we do not learn anything about it as a child, we probably learned something about it when we began dating. Illus: I read this list of the top rejection lines ...read more

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Dec 3, 2019

Thanksgiving In America After Corona

Contributed by Bob Marcaurelle on Nov 23, 2020
