In this book, author Tom Roush throws himself under the bus for his son Michael's amusement and edification. These laugh-out-loud tales, originally told as bedtime stories, were meant to show Michael that his father was human and fallible, but also that people can learn from their mistakes. Most of the stories are about bad decisions that Tom made as a teenager and the consequences that followed, some so catastrophic that Michael later asked, How did you ever get old enough to breed? This book includes a fraction of more than 160 posts on Tom's blog (tomroush.net). Proceeds from sales go toward scholarships to help: * Techies learn more about SQL (Tom was a SQL database administrator.) * Nurses learn more about palliative care and working with cancer patients (The nurses Tom benefited from most pursued continuing education in these areas.)
