'At 28 years old, I found myself living at home, with my 73-year-old father. As a child, my father never minced words, and when I screwed up, he had a way of cutting right through the bullshit and pointing out exactly why I was being an idiot. When I moved back in I was still, for the most part, an idiot. But this time, I was smart enough to write down all the things he said to me...' Meet Justin Halpern and his dad. Almost 1.5 million people follow Mr Halpern’s philosophical musings every day on Twitter, and in this book, his son weaves a brilliantly funny, touching coming-of-age memoir around the best of his sayings. What emerges is a chaotic, hilarious, true portrait of a father and son relationship from a major new comic voice. As Justin says at one point, his dad is ‘like Socrates, but angrier, and with worse hair’; and this is the sort of shit he says... ‘You know, sometimes it’s nice having you around. But now ain’t one of those times. Now gimmie the remote, we’re not watching this bullshit.’ ‘Happy Birthday, I didn’t get you a present... Oh, mom got you one? Well, that’s from me then, too – unless it’s shitty.’ ‘Your brother brought his baby over this morning. He told me it could stand. It couldn’t stand for shit. Just sat there. Big let down.’ ‘The worst thing you can be is a liar . . . Okay, fine, yes, the worst thing you can be is a Nazi, but THEN, number two is liar. Nazi 1, Liar 2.’ ‘Why the f**k would I want to live to 100? I’m 73 and shit’s starting to get boring. By the way, there’s no money left when I go, just fyi.’

This book encourages anyone that may have traveled the same path. Which I'm sure, any one who was given away without turning back has no feeling to what new life is all about. How or where this person might end up. God has given me the strength to look back and be thankful that the family that took me in, did appreciate and did show me what love is all about. Some people can be truly insensitive to others. No fault of yours. So you may have more negative than positive, but patience is a virtue and your time will come. Just believe and put your trust in God because he does answer all prayers.

"Growing up, every time I saw a men's magazine cover that had a headline about '73 Ways to Please Your Girlfriend', all I could think was 'I'm good with one; just tell me one way to please her. Also, I don't have a girlfriend. Is there an article about that?'" Soon after Sh*t My Dad Says began to take off, comic writer Justin Halpern decided to propose to his then girlfriend. But before doing so, he asked his dad's advice, which was very, very simple (and surprisingly clean): "Just take a day to think about it." This book is that day. Crossing the warmth of The Wonder Years with the candour and observational humour of David Sedaris, this follow-up to the hottest comedy debut of last year is a hilarious, toe-curlingly true book about life, and love.

More than twenty years ago, I began jotting down notes of little sayings my father used to teach us lessons when we were growing up. In the beginning, I wrote them down as I remembered them, usually when I was faced with one of life's challenges. I would recall one of dad's sayings and use it to help me make a decision or just get through a tough situation. Relying on dad's sayings usually guided me in the right direction. Over the next few years, I had compiled many of his sayings and began keeping them in a notebook. I developed a desire to write a book of these sayings, in memory of my father, who was a big inspiration in my life. I felt that others might find these pearls of my father's wisdom helpful or, at the very least, entertaining.

Life Lessons from My Father is a presentation of sayings that my father used as he raised the three of us in Mud Town, Topeka's own black ghetto. The sayings were designed to provide us with the personal and social skills that he understood were required for kids like us to function comfortably individually and publicly. He worked, grounding each of us in our own self-esteem. He lived to see the effect of his efforts, and he was pleased. Customer Review Hal Lockard, The Capital-Journal A former Topekan appeased his daughter by compiling an anecdotal collection of his father's sayings and how they applied to everyday situations. The result can benefit parents and children both. Life Lessons From My Father: Things Dad Used to Say by John Fouts Gardenhire, a 1951 graduate of Topeka High School, turns out to be a historic review of one black family's experience in Topeka's "Mud Town." Fouts grew up with a brother and sister under the guidance of Shirley Richard Gardenhire at 807 Wood in East Topeka. His book reveals a lot about the elder Gardenhire's education, occupation and optimistic views on life. The project began with a telephone call from Alissa, his daughter in Maplewood, N.J., who told him, "Dad, I want to talk to you." "And when a kid says that it means either they're in jail or they need money," Gardenhire said. He was relieved to learn that she wanted the two of them to write a book recalling of phrases his father and her grandfather, would say. "She talked, and I wrote," Gardenhire said. The finished product came out in about six months, and 19 publishers rejected it before Xlibris put in print in February. The end result is pared down to about 35 sayings, but he offers an additional 25 or so in an addendum for readers wanting more. It's all good advice. Shirley Richard Gardenhire was born in 1891 in Alma, graduated from Kansas State College in Manhattan and worked for the Santa Fe Railway until retiring. He died in Seattle in the 1970s, and his obituary wasn't published in Topeka. The author graduated from The University of Kansas in 1958 and taught English for many years at Laney College in Oakland, Calif. He moved to Maplewood, N.J., to live near Alissa and his grandson. "If there is any kind of heaven after this, it will be peopled with grandchildren," he says. Among the sayings that are treated with explanatory anecdotes are "Read the newspaper," "Be on time," "Study Latin," "Discipline your children" and "It's a poor dog that won't wag his own tail." It makes for easy reading that can be handled a little at a time or all once. Amazon gives it a five-star rating, and it can be ordered from Barnes and Noble Booksellers or Borders Books and Music. "Its something I hope people not only will enjoy but will learn something from it," he said. It's something expectant fathers might want to take a look at. Publisher
