I don’t understand why CNN took legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin back. I guess there is a serious articulate lawyer shortage in Washington, D.C. and New York.

Were You Love Bombed?
Dear Chump Lady, A good friend shared with me the moment that catapulted her into chumpdom.

Hers began by her sharing how a […]
Chump Lady Defends Her Potty Mouth
Dear Chump Lady, Why do you use foul language? My wife cringes when I use bad language (she is a linguist). It detracts from your heartfelt advice. I bought your book on Amazon and it is right on. Do yourself a favor and cut out the potty mouth. Your truly, Jim Dear Jim, Thank you […]

Acts of Chump Rebellion
Every liberation campaign begins with an act of rebellion. Today’s Friday challenge is to tell Chump Nation about that first moment you un-chumped. Maybe you’re one of the quick learners and you filed immediately. Most of us, however, did not detonate the nuclear consequence right away. Instead, there were uprisings and skirmishes. Periods of lucidity where you […]
