Book Reviews of Uncle John's Great Big Bathroom Reader
Book Review: Did you know who "Time Magazine" picked as the "Man of the Year" "in 1938 ? ..Adolf Hitler.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is another excellent edition in this amazing series.I have read and reviewed a dozen or more and have more on my shelf to read.This one was first published in 1998 and this one I just finished was its 6th Printing in 2000.Don't let it bother you that some editions have been around for a few years.The 1st Edition came out in 1988,and it was good then and still a good read today.(See my Review dated November 17,2009.All that I've read have been excellent,and if anything,they keep getting better all the time.
As the years go by,and the new Editions appear,the editors have not allowed the series to become staid.To the contrary,they are continually coming up with new inovations. In this Edition we are treated to an "Extended Sitting Section".Two of them in this case are "The Wolfman at the Movies" and "Who Was Jack Ruby?"
What I really like about these books is that you just never know what to expect as you finish one page and open the next.There are facts that you just never expected.Whether it is;
Infamous U.S, Vice Presidents
World's tallest structures
Puns
Brain Teasers
Forgotten Men
History of The White House
History of popcorn
What player played on all four of New York's Baseball teams
The history of the Jigsaw Puzzle
Things not to do when abroad
Why is the Aspirin the miracle drug
Riddles
Origins of familiar phrases
Who was the heaviest and lightest President
Did you know that the the Irish eat more Corn Flakes than
anyone;and that there are more people of Irish descent in
And how about this?
A "light year" is the distance that light travels in a year.How far is that? Well,light moves at 186,000 miles a second (it's the fastest thing in the universe),and there are 31,536, seconds in a year,so the equation is:
186,000(miles) X 31,560 (seconds)
That comes to about 6 trillion miles.
Now that you understand that,and think that it is "infinite",The U.S National Debt has gone from 1 to over 13 Trillion dollars in just the last 10 years!!!
These days when Nostradamus and the the prophesy of Armageddon in Year 2012,is all over the news;get the real scoop on "Nostradamus Today" right here in this "Great Big " Edition.
Now,on to another Edition.
