Hahaha, awesome stuff! Finally got to read this little book, it has popped up in different conversations and with different circles of friends and dear friends picked the name of their business inspired by this book! SO clever, SO funny, SO Fresh and it was written in 1979! The author definitely had a great mind and imagination and was a nerd, I think! 🙂 Some excerpts that were too good and I highlighted! 😂“and then, one Thursday, nearly two thousand years after one man had been nailed to a tree for saying how great it would be to be nice to people for a change…”🤔🤦“Mr. L Prosser was, as they say, only human.
