Aprašymas

For the millions of Baby Boomers out there, here is the ultimate trip down memory lane to bring back all those childhood memories, some good, and some great. It will keep you busy and let you forget about your aches and pains for a while. Let’s face it: The economy is not in great shape. There are layoffs, bank closings, foreclosures and general gloom and doom thrust at us at every twist and turn. Good grief, don’t watch the evening news or you might go postal on the television set. Every day you hear stories about folks cutting back. No more cable television; cutting back on cell phone minutes; not eating out or going to the movies. What in the world are people to do for relief?
Well, I’m here to try to help soothe your worries and stresses. What better time to fall back on the best, most reliable form of entertainment known to man since the beginning of time? No, I’m not talking about the world’s oldest profession (unless you live in Nevada); I’m talking about spending the evening curled up with something inanimate…a good book. For far less than the price of takeout pizza, Chinese, or a movie, if you go alone and skip the popcorn and drink, you can laugh until you cry and cry until you laugh, traveling down Reminiscent Lane with the smart aleck himself.
The Smart Aleck Chronicles gives us a look at life in the 1960s through the eyes of the man who was there, every step of the way. Throughout all of his hilarious adventures, he remains the quintessential smart aleck.
Travel back to elementary school in the turbulent 1960s when a well-rounded education included learning to pitch pennies, curse, and discovering girls had cooties. Before the invention of cell phones, when the world was a softer and gentler place, better known as the Silent Ages. During the time when the basic food groups were grease, fat, and sugar.
Discover why the smart aleck used to pee outside, in the ocean, in the pool, and in the spit sink at the dentist office, and throw-up in Sunday school.
Follow him to riotous Sunday dinners, to the eye doctor, Halloween trick-or-treating, Christmas with all the trimmings, delivering newspapers, driving a real train, and on family vacations, to name a few.
No matter what age you are you too can enjoy and likely relate to The Smart Aleck Chronicles. Filled with tales of the “good old days gone by,” you’ll laugh until you cry or wet your pants, whichever comes first. But believe me, you will laugh out loud.
So curl up with a great book, a box of tissues, and a roll of toilet paper and enjoy. You have to see the pictures; they alone are worth the price of admission.
