WRITING THE BOOK IS THE EASY PART
For what may be obvious reasons, whenever anyone — former employee, man on the street, historic novelist — enters our office with the bright idea of talking to someone who could help them with a book they've written, the neophyte author is sent along to my desk.
With one book out of print and two still floating around, I have become the designated book publishing guru.
The easiest part of doing a book is actually writing it. For those so inclined, the writing of the book should come naturally, or not at all.
The first piece of advice a lot of writers get is to look at the top-seller books and write one just like it only slightly different.
Then you too can be a top-selling author, make a lot of money and rest on your laurels on some sunny verandah sipping a cool glass of fresh lemonade.

BELL THE CAT
The first time I met John I delivered a big roundhouse punch into his belly. He never knew it was coming.
He had just transferred into our Nutley catholic elementary school that morning. Sister Genevieve had introduced him to the class.At ten o'clock recess, outside in the playground next to where we could look down into the cafeteria kitchen window and watch the old fat ladies with silver hair in buns getting lunch ready for the kids who got to stay for lunch, where we could smell the smells of cooking vegetables and meatloaf and whatever kids who ate in school ate:
POW! Welcome to the second grade, kid.

ARE YOU TIRED?
We've got the web site for you, TIRED.COM
You send an anonomous email and get it off your chest.
For instance, someone might send an email saying:
I'm tired of being chained to my computer,
of my trackball arm throbbing day and night
of going nearly blind reading small print online
and I'm tired of writing blogs that nobody reads
and the same for everything else.
I'm tired and I really need a long rest
Starting here
Starting now
And no one, as far as we know, according to the Wall Street Journal article, will ever read it.

THUNDER ON THE MOUNTIAN - VIDEO
Thunder on the Mountain Video - Bob Dylan in all his hats!
At first you say, what is this sh*t, then you watch the video and it's almost funny the way the old Dylan and the new Dylan and the young dylan and the Rolling Thunder Review Dylan keep smashing into one another.
And you don't have to be Hoot Gibson to know that the song is not in sync with any of the video.
So if you want to see rare Dylan get thee to the Morgan Libary in NYC before the exhibit there closes! Make sure you sit through his ad lib lyrics based on the pet store signage.
The Slate explanation of the Dylan video.

Why not everybody can be a stand-up comedian.
