Do cats absorb wisdom by sitting on newspapers? Are all dogs as dumb as Dave Barry's? Do you ever wonder why video tapes are so hard to open? What do men need to know about grocery shopping? How can a bumblebee fly? Who did a scientific study of belly button lint? Where's the place to get the perfect haircut? You'll find answers to these and other vital questions between the covers of "Now, I'm No Expert" ... and you'll get some chuckles from observations on some of life's mysteries by a newspaper columnist and former editorial writer who has opinions on just about everything under the sun. This writer can find humor in eye surgery and grocery shopping, motor trips and retirement, even obituaries. With cartoon illustrations by the author, this book includes admissions of inexpertness on Cats, Dogs, Body Art, Money, Telephones, Jobs, Perfume, Beards, Gardening, Toilets, TV Ratings, Baby Names, Gambling, Music, Dieting, Fashion, Men, Weddings, and much more. Enjoy a welcome escape from the heavy headlines, a moment to smile about things that bug us from time to time. "I strongly believe in the power of laughter to relieve the anxiety and strain of these stressful times." - Robert L. Haught
