Who among us does not have personal experiences with those small but important little buildings that go by many names - outhouses, privies, porta-potties, johns, loos, cans, crappers, thrones, and many more? And who has not heard or shared their own funny tales about those adventures? Here is a book full of amusing and rhyming poems dealing with exactly that subject, from - How the term "crapper" got its name - To Jose who rents his portable bano to drivers at the world's busiest border - To military colonels using two-story outhouses (hmmm... what does that mean to the privates?).

Who among us does not have personal experiences with those small but important little buildings that go by many names - outhouses, privies, porta-potties, johns, loos, cans, crappers, thrones, and many more? And who has not heard or shared their own funny tales about those adventures? Here is a book full of amusing and rhyming poems dealing with exactly that subject, from - How the term "crapper" got its name - To Jose who rents his portable bano to drivers at the world's busiest border - To military colonels using two-story outhouses (hmmm... what does that mean to the privates?). These and more outhouse tales will likely stir some memories and definitely bring on big-league chuckles (and maybe snorts). Also here is a set of poems by author Tom on subjects other than outhouses that will trigger more laughs. Finally here are some classic centuries-old poems about adventuresome outhouse experiences written by authors James Whitcomb Riley, Robert Service and yes, some tomes Shakespeare himself spouted off. "Never in my life did I realize there was so much to say about outhouses! From drunken damsels to a triad of escaped convicts to the outhouse adventures of Santa Claus, this book of poems is a delight. It transports the reader to another time and (odorous) place in a deluge of hysterical whimsy. I challenge you not to giggle."

Autorenporträt
I'm based in California but enjoy traveling, as you would note from my most recent book, "ON THE ROAD IN 68: A YEAR OF TURMOIL, A JOURNEY OF FRIENDSHIP." This describes my 6-months round-the-world adventure trip to 27 countries during this especially wild year of 1968. Part of that was in the UK, where I was privileged to spend an overnight at the former home of a British icon, Alexander Pope. My host was a fine chap I'd met over in St. Moritz, Switzerland, and you can read his personal tale, and others I met in '68, in my book. In "SAY IT LIKE SHAKESPEARE: HOW TO GIVE A SPEECH LIKE HAMLET, PERSUADE LIKE HENRY V, AND OTHER SECRETS FROM THE WORLD'S GREATEST COMMUNICATOR" I apply the Bard's amazing tips to help people enhance business and personal communication success. As you will see from my two other books, my main business pusuit is as presentations-public speaking coach and professional speaker. On weekends, I become a nature-outdoors activist and author.
