When I think of the cold shoulder, its like the service…

“When I think of the cold shoulder, its like the service line being cut off during a phone call. The receiver says hello? hello? Are you there? If not, hang up and try again. If they don't pick up after the 3rd ring, then just wait until they call. After all, it was their line that was cut.” quote by Asnea Hu
