eBook Review: An Idiot’s Guide To The Galaxy by Kevin Haggerty

Today, I’m honored to be included on a list of select people who picked up a preliminary copy of a new eBook that is being released today.  In An Idiot’s Guide To The Galaxy, Kevin Haggerty utilizes his wit and humor to pull the reader into his take on the everyday idiot.

At first, I wasn’t sure what I was getting into when I agreed to read Kevin’s eBook.  I mean I don’t consider myself an idiot, and I’m not one to call others on the carpet for their idiotic behavior.  But I learned right off the bat in Chapter 1 (An Idiot’s Guide to Driving) that I might actually be more of an idiot that I first imagined.  Oh well.  As I read through the remaining chapters, I realized that in one way or another we’re all idiots.  While An Idiot’s Guide To The Galaxy brings this fact to light, it also encourages the readers to hold each other accountable to overcoming the idiotic things in our lives.  You have to check out Kevin’s new eBook.  Click here to get more info.  By the way it’s FREE – how can you go wrong!

I could have added a chapter titled “An Idiot’s Guide to Yard Work and Home Improvement”.  I can’t tell you how many times I’ve shocked myself, inflicted myself with poison ivy, run over things with the lawn mower, and damaged formally perfect drywall, piping, etc.  Just this weekend, I decided to prune my raspberries wearing short sleeves and shorts.  You should see the scratches up and down my arms and legs today.  I must be an idiot too!

What have you done recently that qualifies you to be an idiot?

    Shouting hello across a parking lot to a stranger because I saw only the top of her head and thought she was someone I knew. When the woman looked up, I said, “Oh, you’re not Dawn. Well, hello there anyway.”

       Funny.

    Oh boy Jon. I’m sure I’ve done lots of stuff to qualify me as an idiot.

    Speaking the wrong words to my wife would probably be my top one.

    I, too, review Kevin’s book–and posted it without a link to his site. Idiot much? Yep!
    (I won’t even talk about last Fall, and my whole blog debacle–’cause that just about makes me public idiot #1).

      I read your review this morning.  You write some great stuff.  And I think your “debacle” last fall was part of a learning process.  Hope things are going well for you and your family!

        Thanks, Jon! So do you, my friend.

        Learning process, indeed.

        Things going well. Health issues could be better, but I’m not complaining. God uses/allows things to keep me in that place of dependence upon Him.
        How about you? How are the migraines/strength/energy levels?

          I must be an idiot – I spelled write as “right” above.

          Anyway, things are getting better.  I haven’t had a serious migraine since February.  I had one minor one the day I left for vacation two weeks ago.  I just saw my doctor last week, and he reduced a medication.  I think my energy is finally starting to return.

          Hope you’re feeling better soon!

            I saw that, but refrained from commenting. :-)

            Glad to hear it. My wife used to have migraines, and they suck! (can I say that here?)

            Getting there.
