(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 12/12/2017 11:18 AM EDT As former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton stated, "It takes a village to raise a child" and it certainly seems that way in Reese Witherspoon's (Walk the Line) latest romantic comedy, Home Again.

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 12/6/2017 11:39 AM EDT The Washington Post was pretty much a local paper until it blew the roof off the White House when it reported on the Watergate scandal in 1973.

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 11/22/2017 12:36 PM EDT Not everyone is good in a social situation. Some people can be awkward which makes others feel uncomfortable causing them to treat the social outcast poorly.
