Screaming and crying there was plenty of it. Not by any of the people waiting in line or any of the three bank tellers. Ned was the only one screaming and crying. Mrs. Warren grabbed the gun away from Ned. ''Are you stupid, Ned?''
''I've been out of work and needed the money,'' Ned explained. ''I had watched one of those heist movies and figured this was as good a way as any to get some extra money.''
''You're obviously banned from this bank,'' Mrs. Warren said. ''You better leave because the police are on their way.''
''Thanks, Mrs. Warren,'' Ned said.
''I wouldn't figure you'd last in prison,'' Mrs. Warren said.
''Not at all,'' Ned said.

The secluded Maplewood Campground, nestled deep in the woods, promised tranquility and picturesque views. They had no idea what awaited them beneath the ground.

Self Help: Grifters' Gospel
On Self-Help, Snake Oil, and the Illusion of Change Psychology professionals and students can be imagined on two opposite sides of a line called self-help books: likely a larger group opposes pop-science and step-by-step manuals filled with talk of success, journaling, and not giving a f**k; others love them, but they aren’t many.
