His ability to grasp the weirdness of today's sometimes wacky life experiences, with all its oddities, and then turn them into amusing anecdotes is, to say the least, a true gift. He has gleaned more zany observations in this, his latest book, and hopes that he is able to impart, to the reader, his curious and sometimes wild visions. The slanted use, of the English language, also provides some adaptations to give the reader an opportunity to explore its convoluted use of actions, sayings and views. Humor is extremely subjective and thus some people will not see the funny side of all his deep thoughts and off beat descriptions. Do not be offended by any of these twisted tales as they were merely devised with the single hope of attempting to encourage thinking and amusement for the reader. Therefore, no harm is ever meant or intended. The author assures that, with his range of experiences, each reader will get an ample share of his off -the-cuff satire so dig in and let the good times roll.
