Looking Too Hard
Have you ever set down your remote control or your car keys in the not usual location, only to go searching for them in that same spot an hour later. You look everywhere for them, right? You get on your hands and knees, looking under furniture, searching between the cushions on the couch… Chances are, in the search for the very item you’re looking for, you’ve picked them up and...

The fact that this writer gets paid for her close-minded opinions astonishes me. It astonishes me...
