DO YOU REMEMBER YOUR FIRST LIE?

My very first memory as a human being is when I also told my first lie! It all happened like this: I was playing with my brand new Army jeep in the cotton field in my front yard.

THE RED ROBIN NEVER SANG AGAIN, BECAUSE I KILLED HIM.

IS YOUR GLASS HALF-EMPTY OR HALF-FULL?

When you observe a doughnut, do you see only a hole? Here is a famous little poem, written by James T. Fields, for you. I hope you enjoy it! The Owl Critic "WHO stuffed that white owl?" No one spoke in the shop: The barber was busy, and he couldn't stop; The customers, waiting their turns, were all... Sign in to see full entry.
