By G. Smith, Jr.
Is chivalry close to being extinct? Author Roger Smith thinks so. And The Gentlemen's Guide: A Quick Reference is the solution! In defining "gentleman", Smith does not cater to the definition of a tuxedo-wearing, Ferrari-driving, multilingual man ala James Bond. Instead, he believes a gentleman is defined in terms of behavior that is courteous, mannerly, and poised. Smith believes the average man can easily increase his manners by making simple changes. Excellent manners and thoughtfulness have virtually disappeared in our current culture. But it doesn't take much for a man to restore himself to the good graces of his significant other! Among the suggestions Smith has compiled to help men improve their relationships with wives or girlfriends are the following: - Hold her-that's one thing your arms are for
- Make her lunch-she may not like a sardine and guacamole sandwich, but it's the thought that counts!
- Walk with her-remember it's together time, not a race!
- Kiss her-do not burp before or after
Take this opportunity to find the gentleman inside-your other half will thank you for it!

This book uses the satirical form to skewer a multiplicity of targets ranging from American foreign policy in the Middle East to self-improvement hucksterism. Specifically, the book is divided into four parts that contain 33 exceptionally brilliant essays. Please note that reading these essays may cause your mind to expand and your nervous system to register feelings of enjoyment. However, do not be alarmed if you experience these effects. They are rarely long lasting and real life is the perfect antidote. The Levinson Report proves that imagination is more important than knowledge.
Albert Einstein, scientist It’s a tale told by idiots, full of sound and fury signifying nothing. Just kidding.
William Shakespeare, writer I love this book. Lot of great insight and plenty of yucks. Mission accomplished, Marty!
George W. Bush, moron I vant to be alone, with The Levinson Report. It’s fantastic!
Greta Garbo, actress This book made my day.
Clint Eastwood, actor I laughed so hard I almost plotzed. To tell you the truth I did plotz. Don’t let on to the Arab street.
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, lunatic dictator This book is better than steroids, whatever they are.
Barry Bonds, baseball player The Levinson Report: one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.
Neil Armstrong, astronaut Martin H. Levinson brings over 40 years of experience to his role of chronicler of the human comedy. A prolific writer and an astute observer of featherless bipeds, he believes times like these demand satire.

In 20 years, what smoker will legitimately be able to claim that he or she didn't know cigarettes were harmful or addictive? And how shocked will a jury really be when it hears that a tobacco executive in the 1960s knew about the addictive nature of cigarettes? There's no real evidence that telling kids not to smoke really works. Indeed, studies have shown that it can often have the opposite effect. Children, by their very nature, love to defy authority, and spending millions on advertising to vilify the cigarette could ultimately serve to enhance its appeal. The cigarette is and will continue to be forbidden fruit. Even though the films of Hollywood's Golden Age once portrayed smoking as a normal activity, smoking no longer enjoys such popularity-and for good reason. An estimated 3.5 million people worldwide still die each year from smoking-related illnesses. Through the use of factoids and cartoons, author Gilbert M. Silva illustrates his belief that smokers are victims of what is essentially a ridiculous and deadly activity. The accompanying health statistics and description of consequences caused by the use of tobacco products are indisputable, and they deserve serious consideration. Your body will appreciate it, don't you think? " This is certainly an important topic, and I want to congratulate you on an entertaining and well-produced book." -Diane Scott-Lichter, publishing director, the American Cancer Society

Teachings of the Cat Zen Masters, by Sheryll Dahlke, is a collection of quotes by famous cats, such as T. Furball, Oscar Wildecat, and many others. Felix Waldo Emerson, for instance, says: "There is a cat-like quality in everything God has made." In these pithy sayings, cats live totally in the moment with full awareness. Like a contradiction, they study the Self to forget the Self. They are centered in balance and in time, completely within the activity of the moment-whether playing with a stone or a butterfly. "This little book is a joyous read. You will be given the powerful, loving freedom for you to be yourself."-Juanita "Catastrophe" Tobin, Poet-Blowing Rock, NC. "The enlightened cat is a beautiful thing. We humans can learn a few things from Teachings of the Cat Zen Masters. Enjoy!"-Rita Bayron, Faithful Feline Follower-Coppell, TX.

What in the world is a "proFUNdity"? Well, it's a sentence or two that describes everyday situations (like misplacing your glasses or laughing at the wrong time) in a tongue-in-cheek "profound" style. Everybody experiences frustrating moments at home or work, while shopping or driving, or when dealing with others. In retrospect, though, those moments often make for amusing stories to share with friends. As you will see from the illustrations and the Table of Contents, 101 ProFUNdities emphasizes the humorous aspects of life, even while sounding like it might have been written by a career bureaucrat (it was). Success in understanding and personally relating to a proFUNdity and its plainspoken title/subtitle is where the FUN comes in. 101 ProFUNdities will "capture the fancy" of word-loving adults who have a sense of humor, have "been there and done that", and who enjoy wholesome books that require a little thought. Puzzled by "Purposeful Jerk" (#44) or "Cerebral Perversity" (#73)? Don't worry; there's a "Cheat Sheet" in the back that explains everything. Open to any page and enjoy reading for a minute, ten minutes, or an hour.

By Hugh & Janet Gilmore, Jim Harris, and Mike Todd
Chestnut Hill Local columnists Mike Todd, Janet Gilmore, Hugh Gilmore, and Jim Harris, (L–R), have not only survived in the troubled and struggling newspaper business, they have amassed a devoted following of fans who shower them with lavish presents like scrapple, bowling balls, and money from Nigerian bank accounts. Until recently, their columns were available only to the readers of the Local, but now you, too, can “LOL” as: - Hugh warns of the “Enemies of Reading”
- Janet remembers old friends, old flames and ex-coworkers
- Mike deals with wrens, ferrets, and a pregnant wife in his house
- Jim dispenses dubious advice and rails against the system
They each have their own style and shtick, but they share a love of language and an innate ability to find the humor in everyday life. Not since Ben Franklin dined alone at the Mermaid Inn has Chestnut Hill seen such a concentration of comedic talent. Here, from among their hundreds of articles, hand–picked by a rigorous process of “One potato, two potato,” is a rollicking roundup of mirthful monologues for your gracious consideration.

By Mizencole Nut
The world suffers from an insidious malaise of ill-advised, uncouth behavior. In the name of liberty, the rules of decorum and courtesy have been cast aside like yesterday's coffee grounds or empty mayonnaise jars or maybe washed-up ballplayers. In their ensuing ignorance, the masses are desperate to learn of things civil and considerate. Accordingly, what the world needs now is a set of quick-start instructions on refined behavior. We need an etiquette reboot-and a magnanimous leader. Auspiciously, Mizencole Nut has come to our aid. And he is the man for the task. Cultivated comportment comes naturally to him. It is in his blood. He can tie a Windsor knot in the dark with one hand strapped to a bedpost. He never buttons the wrong holes in his shirts, and he never-ever-puts his shoes on the wrong feet. You can trust Mizencole Nut. He delivers the answers you need to leave barbarism behind. Read him in confidence and rest assured that, although Refined Behavior may not make you a culture expert overnight, delusional lunacy is all but guaranteed in one reading two at most.
