sorry, dad.

more things my father was not hoping i would take away from his father's copy of how to win friends and influence people:

"A little iodine that can be bought at a corner drugstore for five cents is all that stands between you and an institution for the mentally ill."

"...and there, suddenly - to my dismay - I saw the majesty of the law, astride a bay horse."

"The man who said that is now dead."

in between all the "blah, blah, be nice to people" stories...those are the quotes that catch my attention.

let's just say it's hard to take this book completely seriously.

actually it's hard to take ANY book seriously, after finishing a chuck klosterman book. i think i accidentally imagine that every author is high while he or she writes.
