Nobody's exempt from pain. Not even self-help book authors! In my book, THE BOUNCE BACK BOOK, I confess how within one year, so many bad occurrences happened, I kept waiting for a Candid Camera crew to appear from behind the planter in my living room!

First, the...

A famous research study was once done on a clique of young goldfish, who were raised in a luxuriously long aquarium with a pesky glass wall smack down its middle.

There's a famous expression: "It only hurts when I laugh."
