Customer Reviews

Sentimental and humorous look at living.

A collection of columns from the past that are both humorous, sometimes thought provoking and sometimes sad. The first time you read through the articles, they are fun. But later as you read through them again, many times they evoke emotions that you never expected. Or sometimes they are more timely the second time around. When I first read them, I hadn't experienced the death of a friend. The second time I had and the column brought tears to my eyes. His other book, Dancing Under the Moon, also brings emotions to the surface. Both books can make you laugh outloud at the antics of his dogs and grandkids. They also make you think about your reactions to similar situations and maybe how you could have reacted in a different manner. But no matter how they affect you, they are always entertaining.
