Congratulations on your winning work. Way to go. Well, sometimes the truth hurts, but tell a good story so to say and it lifts spirits or as in news it can conquer or divide. Thanks for sharing this bit of wisdom with us and for dropping by my page. Sara K

David. I think I did not quite understand your total idea and yet it looked SO good, especially that last line. Very clever there. Congrats and thanks for your participation.

Thanks for the challenge of the contest. My theme was on people still watching the news for truth(lol). They get upset with the lies(little or large) that are mostly used to persuade or divide. I wish they'd learn to laugh off the 'news sales pitch', and search for truth elsewhere.

I've noticed many people will believe a lie before they will accept the truth. This is cute and more truthful than you'd think. Nice job. It made me smile and I need one today. God Bless, JB
