Flex 4 Fun: Amazon Existence Proof

There's a basic philosophical question that is fundamental to so many situations in life:

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody is there to hear it, does it make a sound?
If you tell a joke and nobody hears it, is it funny?
If your children respect you, are they really teenagers?

The equivalent in the book world is:

If your book isn't sold on Amazon.com, has it really been published?

I'm happy to say that Flex 4 Fun now passes this last existence proof; the book is available for pre-order on Amazon.com. The book is at the printers now, supposedly available in hard-copy in mid-September. At Amazon's discount of 34% off the list price of $36, it seems like a pretty good deal to me.

Notice that the Amazon price of $24.39 is just shy of the $25 you'll need to reach for free shipping. Which is probably just the excuse you were looking for to finally pick up When I Am King....

By the way, if any reader is so inspired, it would be great if you posted a review on Amazon (and elsewhere). I know how I feel about my books, but I'm slightly more subjective than you might be. Besides, I already used up my quota of words in the books themselves. It's time for me to shut up and let someone else talk. Briefly.

Women and children overboard

It's the Catch-22 of clinical trials: to protect pregnant women and children from the risks of untested drugs....we don't test drugs adequately for them. In the last few decades , we've been more concerned about the harms of research than of inadequately tested treatments for everyone, in fact. But for "vulnerable populations," like pregnant women and children, the default was to exclude them. And just in case any women might be, or might become, pregnant, it was often easier just to exclude us all from trials. It got so bad, that by the late 1990s, the FDA realized regulations and more for pregnant women - and women generally - had to change. The NIH (National Institutes of Health) took action too. And so few drugs had enough safety and efficacy information for children that, even in official circles, children were being called "therapeutic orphans." Action began on that, too. There is still a long way to go. But this month there was a sign that ...

Austerity-A Fancy Word for Destitute.

The reason for this post is not for the folks who have been caught in the first wave of personal economic hard reality, but the next wave. Regardless of the optimism espoused by grinning leaders and sycophant press, we are entering the final stage of global economic collapse. It began in 2008 and was forestalled for five years with fudge putty, but the weight of global indebtedness cannot be propped any longer and the final crunch is imminent. Austerity measures herald the final throes. Indications of coming austerity. Austerity measures are the final last ditch effort, futile or not! Back in the day many of us old-timers went through periods of "hard-times". In retrospect I realize there is no comparison to yesteryear hard times and today's version. Back then, expectations were never very high for the working class, there were no sophisticated systems or conveniences anyway. In fact the difference between being "set" or not was about having treats or not. Si...
