Costumer Reviews

Tom Friedman's new book is just in time for...um, wait, I knew it a second ago...

Well, whether its on time, late for an appointment, or in completely the wrong place, this book is fantastic. It's a read you won't be able to put down, because you'll want to read about these famous mishaps until you reach the end of the road. It is laugh-out-loud funny, and your favorite famous person is sure to be in there, and doing something forgetful.

My favorite moment was Mick Jagger's, who, when offered $5 million for his memoirs at age 25....had to return the money because he couldn't remember enough about his own life.

Priceless.

I think the previous reviewer must have read a different book. He didn't even get the joke of the title! But enough about his review, and on to mine:

I'm so grateful that I don't have to be defensive about my senior moments any more! This book is full of unique, laugh-out-loud historical anecdotes which prove that if Albert Einstein, Yo-Yo Ma, and the gorgeous, young Marilyn Monroe, among others, can have senior moments, then why not the rest of us?

My favorite is about Oprah Winfrey's knock-out display of modesty in, uhhhh.... What was the name of that movie? Ah well, I guess you'll just have to get the book and find the story for yourself. I certainly can't be expected to remember everything. By the way, 1,000 Unforgettable Senior Moments will make a great little stocking-stuffer-type gift. Or the kind of thing you bring to a party when you're not supposed to bring a present, but still want to.
