SQUIRREL!
A gift of knowledge and wisdom
"WOW!! I didn't know that!!" - this is what I predict you will say literally hundreds of times as you read this book. In fact, in the humblest sort of way, I am confident that you will learn more from this book about the world we live in and interacting with our fellow human beings than you did in all your years of high school and college. I really wish someone would have given me this book before I left school and entered the real world.
This book is a GIFT from me to you. I have poured out onto these pages just the most Amazing, Profound, Funny, and Fascinating Facts I have learned and experienced during my journey on the planet. This book is a "Knowledge Dump" - from my brain to yours.
This is not my life story. In fact, it is not about me at all; it's all about the world we live in. It's about the Universe, about interacting and appreciating nature and her animals and understanding yourself, your mind, your body, and your fellow human beings.
Why are the sky and ocean blue? How long can honey be stored? Did Albert Einstein believe in God? Why do teenagers become so rebellious? How and when should you start planning for your retirement? Why are 15% of people in our population dyslexic? How long does it take light to travel from the Sun to the Earth? How can you beat the game of Blackjack? Which vitamins should you take? How many possible positions are there in a chess game? How many times per minute does a Hummingbird's heartbeat?
Yes - that was quite Random. I do
indeed have my Squirrel! moments.
I am passionate about giving back. In these pages, I have packaged the answers to so many questions that we all have - and then even answered some you didn't know you had. My goal was to provide you with what I call: "Take-away Value" in Every Paragraph, Every Page and Every Chapter. Please enjoy…
