Often weird, but never boring
Cousin Jenny wasn't impressed by my Tarzan yell.
Back in the 1960s, Mom sang her original parody of the Campbell's commercial: "Soup and sandwich, soup and sandwich, go together like blood and bandage." Dad brought home copies of Mad magazine for my sister and me to read. And one time he showed up in a gorilla suit for a huge wedding reception on the south side of Chicago.
So how could I ever not be crazy? You know what they say: the nut doesn't fall far from the tree.

The Dumb Zone: A Snarky Look at Your Obsessive Climbing Disorder

The Death Zone: a 26,000-ft summit with too little oxygen for survival
The Dumb Zone: that delirious, climbing-obsessed space between your ears
This topic is almost too absurd for words -- so I threw in lots of pictures, too.
The Dumb Zone is available in paperback and Kindle formats at Amazon (right HERE). I recommend the paperback, because I earn a higher royalty on it -- and frankly, this "starving writer" thing is getting kind of old.
Still not convinced?
See if you're a match for any of the climbers pictured on my Dumb Zone page (HERE).

Ta-daa! My biggest, baddest Spoofbook
Smartass Answers to Dumbass Questions: A Spoofbook on Everything
Dumbass questions deserve smartass answers!
Why does our dog Rufus lick his privates all the time?
He's trying to freshen his breath.
"Did you find everything you were looking for?"
No, but let's hold up the line while you page a clerk who won't find it, either.
Can I machine-wash extremely muddy clothes?
Yes. You can also spend the next three days shoveling mud out of your washer.
Plus: Inferior Decorating ... The Guys' Crap Roadshow ... Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow ... The Life-Changing Magic of Compulsively Folding Your Socks ... Quantum Physics Made Easy ... and billions of other absurd and pointless topics.
Smartass Answers to Dumbass Questions is available in paperback and Kindle format. I recommend you buy both, because I need the money.

Love to buy stuff online?
Great! I love to sell stuff online. Check out my Spoofbooks and other parodies on the BOOKS page (but of course).
