I was getting my half hour walk in at the library. I walked every north/south aisle (about 7) and then all the east/west aisles (about 30). While walking I saw this book, The Book of Vice: Very Naughty Things (and How to Do Them). Peter Sagal wrote this book and I liked him from his radio show "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me." I thought the book would be funny. A few lines were funny but overall I found it sad. This book was so sad that I don't even want to gamble, over-indulge, watch porn, swing, lie or cheat. The stories he tells of people who do these things are not happy stories. I thought reading this book would be a little bit naughty but actually it's an indirect sermon on being good; not at all what I expected.
