How to Not Make the Same Mistake Once

by Barry Farber

Barry Farber never gave a single thought to educational theory until, at the age of twenty-two, he saw how the U.S. Army taught new recruits not to stand behind a bazooka when it was being fired. In this book Barry Farber, host of a nationally syndicated radio talk-show, arms everybody with the weaponry to avoid "stupidities" which--though not as lethal as standing behind a firing bazooka--daily sabotage and destroy mankind's perpetual quest for success. How To Not Make The Same Mistake Once is a modern Aesop's Fables for grownups, hammering home its many "morals" with a chilling effectiveness, tempered by Barry's warm southern charm. Unlike Aesop's, however, every one of these enjoyable "fables" is true! Read just a few of these tales and you will be sure not to make those same mistakes once. But read these fables and you will be in the habit of spotting stupidities of all kinds on the way in. Like Slow moving missiles, foolishness will become easy to duck, dodge, and avoid during your march to the winner's circle.
