A debut collection of very short, humorous stories; it is the author’s therapy from dealing with a very stressful time when his wife got leukemia shortly before they were laid off from their jobs.
It’s a penetrating picture of the world, not always pretty, as viewed by a rich array of characters, talking animals, and the author’s twisted perception of reality. Rated PG for drug references, cartoon violence, bad puns, and anti-humor. Contains a wealth of hidden trivia.

Humor writer/columnist Richard Bell presents us here with his multi-layered series of short stories. The stories start out innocently enough and some build upon each another in unpredictable ways and with hidden connections. He also presents us with tips to make our lives more interesting.
Follow the journeys of Spud, the evil potato, the author and his misadventures with aluminum foil, a porcupine named Timmy who comes to think he’s a doctor, and young brothers Scooter and Biff, to name just a few who live in his world.
Some of the stories come from Rich’s magazine column entitled Modern Fables in Wassup Local Magazine (Lake County, IL) which he started writing for in 2008. A portion of the proceeds from book sales is being donated to Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science for cancer and Alzheimer's research.
