And The Best Blog Is: : Word of Mouth! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780964192768)

Little kids go through a period when their every utterance is either "Why?" or "No!" I got over "No" fairly quickly but never "Why?" But ... why would anyone go three months without bathing just to live like they did in Tudor England? (And it turns out that the Tudors were a lot cleaner than we might have thought.) Why would any man be looney enough to go around "marrying" trees? Some sort of bark fetish? No, turns out he's an ardent ecologist. And in my humble opinion, bat shit crazy. Why can you buy kosher marijuana in New York, but not Los Angeles? Because NY has the highest Jewish population of all American cities. And I didn't know that either. I like the quirky because human behavior fascinates me. A passing mention of something that strikes me as odd or funny or educational puts me on the prowl to find out more. For instance, how did that gun turn up in an old suitcase underneath our house? Who put it there and why? The purpose of Word of Mouth, the near-daily blog I write has always been to amuse, educate and to make the reader curious enough to seek out their own truth even if it's no more than copying a recipe to try it or visiting a local or distant place they've never seen. This book is a compendium of incidents that intrigued me and the answers I found. Enjoy! Murphy lives 20 minutes south of LAX (for convenience in evading the police) with her husband (Richie, ) two cats (Streak and Fred) a cockatiel (Lady Bird) and a drinking problem as yet unnamed.
