Life on the Periphery - An Ordinary Man's View of the World by Louis Bruno

I run into people all the time who seem to be experts on all subjects. They know the best place for Chinese food and pizza, the best doctor, lawyer, mechanic, and barber. They understand global warming, the economy, politics, and Shakespeare. If they were on a game show, their subject would be “everything.” This is not to imply that these individuals do not have a working knowledge of all of these subjects. In fact, I am quite certain that these folks—who have dead-end jobs and are constantly in a state of financial woe—are well versed in all of life’s nuances. On the other hand, I am just trying to make it through the week without wearing my underwear on the outside of my pants. —Louis Bruno
