Read any really funny self-improvement memoirs lately? NO? That’s what I thought. Since this is a genre that the author invented, they’re somewhat hard to find. Well I’ve got great news for you. There is a new (74-year old) kid in town who just wrote “Life Lessons, Observations, and Musings of an Elder.” It is a hilarious treatise on life that shares the author’s experiential knowledge via anecdotes and humorous Life Lessons. The book covers a broad series of topics – writing your first book, dating and marriage, divorce (from a non-practitioner’s perspective - caveat inserted to appease the author’s wife), living with a Queen (including her metamorphosis from Queen-To-Be, her royal expectations, and her responsibilities), careers, retirement, aging, life in Geezerville, travel adventures /misadventures and friends. In addition, it is loaded with personal observations about changes, developments and people; and the author muses about hobbies, music, bucket lists, children and giving back. Throughout the book, the author pays tribute to his “Humor Hero”, Dave Barry; provides potential future novel topics to his fellow Geezerville resident, Stephen King; and includes definitions of esoteric $10 words that the reader can employ to become a silver-tongued televangelist, politician, or college professor (all at no additional cost).You don’t have to wait until you’re a septuagenarian to understand life. Think of Life Lessons as a Cliff Notes shortcut now.If you need a good laugh, you’ve come to the right place. The author’s objective is to hear you laughing out there in Readerland, while passing along sage advice on life. Remember, Life Lesson #62 (out of the 98 Life Lessons in the book) is “He who laughs lasts.”Life Lessons, Observations, and Musings of an Elder is Mike Keebaugh’s Latest Bestseller. (This claim is technically correct. Since it is his first book, it is both his “latest”, and it is the “best-selling book” he has written).As the 1970s Alka-Seltzer advertisement implored “Try it, you’ll like it.”
