The "R Word" Book: Rants, Reactions, Responses and Reflections

With advancing age you are supposedly blessed with more tolerance, understanding, and wisdom. While I cannot confirm that supposition, I can report that I am never at a loss for an opinion on any topic. This book is a compilation of rants, reactions, responses and reflections on a diverse list of topics. Some of the topics include: gun control in the USA, Naturopathic medicine, modern miracles, salt consumption, eating bacon, bicycle fishermen, chain gangs and the war on drugs. The latter portion of the book contains reactions and reflections based upon our three month visit to Thailand and Cambodia. This section includes reactions and reflections on topics such as the Bamboo Train, Chiang Mai, the killing fields of Cambodia, the flying chicken restaurant, 7-11 stores, washing elephants and a host of other bizarre experiences.
