I bet you were slapped around a lot as a kid for being anal. The
bullies had to love seeing you coming because you made the perfect
target to demonstrate why others should respect their bulliness.

"Despite the monitor showing a flatline for days, we're optimistic that
the patient's heart will start beating again any moment."

"It's sort of been flat for awhile. But we're hopeful that the stock

People can believe all sorts of things. They might even spin
circumstances to make things appear better than they are. Don't make it
