A curated stream of conciousness humorous blog posts of a dedicated nutter
About the Book
Well.
Here we are.
I've had a blog for years and have frequently done movie and video reviews, song parodies for programmers as well as humorous stream of consciousness posts that have elicited many ROTFL moments for many people.
As a result of multiple request to package them up into a volume I caved in and did it.
I dedicate this book to all those other nutters out there who also see the absurd side of the world.
Enjoy.
Kimbo!
