Intended more for humor than utility, this book disappoints on both fronts. Only 10% of the tips are actually useful. The rest are highly specialized (how to administer asthma medication to a pet rodent) or of questionable legality (how to electrocute a hotel room intruder). An ordinate amount involve menstrual pads, which I suppose the male author finds hilarious. The book is padded with random trivia and film/book references that do not contribute to the work. Not recommended. ( )
