101 Things NOT to Do Before You Die

Is the title of quite funny book by Robert Harris.  I got the book from Rebecca as a reward for helping her move.  I mostly just read books on my Amazon Kindle now but when I’m flying I need some printed material because they won’t let you turn on electronic devices during take off and taxiing.  At Newark the line to take off is sometimes an hour long so you need a book.  Opportunity for Amazon get the airlines to exempt Kindle from the devices restrictions.

101 Things NOT to Do Before You Die is a list book with each suggestion on one or two pages.  It is at various points clever, funny and thought provoking.  In fact it is the kind of book I would write if I could write.

Exerpt: #93 Don’t let the pessimists get you down: “History shows that things get better not worse over time.”  This could be the Maxim of the Week on my blog.

Robert Harris has a web site that is worth visiting.

  1. I went to Amazon and bought this book on your recommendation. Thank you for sharing it. I also read mostly on my Kindle, but have been known to carry a paper book around occassionally, and I think this would be a good one to share with the rest of my family.
