Wry Humor

Book excerpt: The title Wry Humor: Reflections as a Side Dish says it all. Each essay takes a slice of personal experience observations and nonconventional themes. They are meant for people to reflect upon their surroundings, people and their pecularities. The writings require that we tread carefully among the wonderful nature that we seem to carnage or even destroy. Humans are having a difficult time dealing with each other while mutilating the environment. Mother Nature has wonderful healing properties and drawing attention to human involvment needs to be outed and subtle irony may help to disclose and adjust our insight on our unrealized and skewed behavior. The Human race has come a long way. Machines are on the foremarch and gadgetry and greed has taken over. Human interactions have been diverted to the inane. Meaningful attention to important issues that compromise our existence have been diverted to trivia - largely labeled each day as "Breaking News." Perhaps the book title Wry Humor and insightful reflections may help people to realize that addiction to trivia may prove dangerous to our survival.
