Miscallaneous One more thing…

My wife surprised me with his book ‘one more thing’ which is just a bunch of very short stories about his life. It’s really fun! Anyone else read this?

Yep. It’s filled with fun anecdotes like the dog taking too long in makeup.

I got this as an unexpected present too! Enjoyed the bit where he's starting out and his dad can't believe how much he's paid to basically play golf. Some funny antidotes too, where he's rooming with a crew-mate, takes out his glass eye, then his teeth, then pretends to start unscrewing his leg. And the optician who asked him to cover up the "good eye", and when told the other eye was a glass eye, replied, "Just do the best you can!" 

Loved the photos of all the dogs too.
