hat is the cost of a happy go lucky feeling at the core of your stomach? Apparently it’s $2. I was standing in line waiting to pay for a pouch of peanuts [retail value $0.85]. An elderly woman was standing in front of me. She carefully examined her collection of goodies: a midsize bag of […]
he word admiration is defined as: respect and warm approval; something regarded as impressive or worthy of respect.
