This is a great book for anyone in the post-college drudge of learning to be a 'real' person. Chapters like "How to buy groceries" and "It pays to live beneath your means" will be beneficial for anyone coming out of The 115.
Cheap Ways To. . . is just what it seems. Sections titled "Cheap ways to Get legal help" may come in handy. Other chapters include ". . .to get a masters degree. . . .to plan a creative date. . . .to take a ski vacation." This one is more laughable, but still with good intent.
Anyhow, both books just came in the mail from Amazon and I've been reading through them off and on. Don't forget boys and girls, Dream Theater just released a new album today called Train of Thought. I haven't heard it yet, but reviews say it's one of DT's best ever. If you're into progressive rock at all, this is an interesting sidenote.
Neal Morse is known in the progressive rock world "as the composer and vocalist for the leading progressive rock band, Spock's Beard. Or as the composer, vocalist and keyboardist for the progressive rock supergroup, Transatlantic (comprised of members from Dream Theater, The Flower Kings, Marillion and Spock's Beard)." (taken from) Neal Morse.com ) Anyhow, he recently put out an album entitled "Testimony". On it, he tells the story of his life as he lived it before and after he became a follower of Christ. (For those of you not familiar with Morse, this is the equivalent of the Eagles becoming Christians and deciding to put out an album full of songs that speak to their conversion.) FYI I don't know if the Eagles are Christians or not, I just picked a random succesful band. Anyhow, Mike Portnoy, of Dream Theater brings in the drums on "Testimony". Portnoy is known throughout the drum world as the leader in progressive rock drumming and I have been thoroughly obsessed with him for several years. I'm glad to see good composition coming to the Christian scene.
-Peace out-
