Synopsis

Quips, criticism, observations, common sense or nonsense... you decide! My desire is to encourage people to think instead of to agree, and to trust their own eyes and ears, instead of someone else's. When I set out to critique Ben Franklin I thought it would be a lonely task, after all, Ben's a historical giant and one of our most sacred cows. It didn't take long to discover he's been criticized by many people before me... it also didn't take long to realized that Mr. Franklin was indeed a great man! Chapters begin and end with an interesting quote related to that chapters' content. The rest are my thoughts, based on 54 years of life. This book is for you if you're interested in an atypical view about; the sexes, race, space, war, religion, business, politics and other perplexing subjects. I've tried to write in a humorous, distinctive style and present a unique perspective reflective of to my background and experiences. The book also contains more than twenty original color photos I've taken in NYC, Las Vegas, Indiana and elsewhere! I've been married for twenty-six years, raised children, seen much of the world and am in regular contact with people from all over the planet. I belong to no political party and am neither conventionally independent, Tea Party or Libertarian... instead, in politics, religion and life, I still find myself un-affiliated!
