If you are living among the ranks of people who lack for fascinating stories to tell at parties, have been telling the same boring tales and jokes all your life at family gatherings, and are left in the conversational dust by your contemporaries, this is the book for you! Herein is a compendium of short stories covering just about any topic you can imagine. This is a crucible of tales born of comedy, wit, parody, satire, acrimony, hilarity, strange-but-true history, sport memorabilia, political foibles and outright goofiness, about quirky people present and past. Most of them have to do with things you’ve never even heard of, i.e., Ig Nobel Prize Winners, Clark Gable’s sex life, disasters, celebrity foolishness, declassified secrets, afterlife expectations, all 327 love types, et cetera. But you get the picture. The challenge is in your remembering them, retelling these stories in such profusion that will cow your listeners, and automatically raise their opinion of your IQ at least thirty to fifty points. As the center of attention, you can expect your social calendar to increase exponentially. You know that you’ve arrived when you hear somebody comment, Wherever did you get all these stories? It’ll just be our secret (between you and me.) Now, get out there and test your mettle as a raconteur. Victor Kelley
