Did you know...
... that today{11th July} is Advice-to-the-Lovelorn Day? In 1896, the
first advice-to-the-lovelorn column was published in the "New
Orleans Picayune." Known as the Mother Confessor to Millions,
Dorothy Dix's column ran in 300 newspapers for 55 years.
Trivia buffs: As the forerunner of today's popular advice
columnists, Dorothy Dix was America's highest paid and most
widely read female journalist at the time of her death.

"There isn't a single human being who hasn't plenty to cry
over, and the trick is to make the laughs outweigh the tears."
