Some Thoughts On The Dummies
The other day my wife and I were walking our dogs, and we saw an old clapped out motorcycle go by with a couple on board, the man who was driving was wearing a tuxedo and a helmet, the passanger, a woman wore a wedding dress and no helmet.
I noticed all the For Dummies books today at the local Barnes and Noble and the thought occured to me, that the Dummies press puts out a fine series of books on many useful subjects. Everything from Photoshop to Guitar to Juggling. You name it and Dummies has a book for it, or so it seems. NOT QUITE whatI think we really need are a series of Dummies books with lessons for life with titles like Marriage For Dummies, How Not To Get Pregnant For Dummies, How To Raise A Kid For Dummies. Think of it, the perfect wedding gift, the entire 10 volume set 1. Dating For Dummies, 2. Pre-Marital Sex For Dummies, 3. How To Get Married For Dummies, 4. Honeymooning For Dummies, 5. Setting Up House For Dummies, 6.How Not To Get Pregnant For Dummies, 7. How To Get Pregnant For Dummies 8. How To Raise a Kid For Dummies, 9. How To Have An Extra-Marital Affair For Dummies, 10. Divorce For Dummies, maybe they allready have that one. We could even have a Dummies book on how to dispose of the body when you finally shit the bed.
No home library would be complete without them. Kind of like a modern set of encyclopedias and farmers almanac rolled into one. And thats not all, the skys the limit. The list would be ever expanding, How To Do Hard Time For Dummies, you know with helpful tips on things like the best lubricants.
This has the potential to be the most profitibal series in the history of publishing, when you consider all the potential readers that qualify as DUMMIES. I wonder if the current and previous Presidents have ever read the How To Be Chief Executive For Dummies? They sure have the qualifications to be readers. Maybe we should have Voting For Dummies. Perhaps we would get better results. Seems to me there is an inexaustable supply os stupidity floating around this planet. It seems to have a half life like carbon 14. That is, stupid things that were done 1000 years ago are still effecting us today.
Lets get these books published. What we need are more Dummies Books and fewer Dummies.
This could go on for ever but it's late and I'm tired.zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
