ABOUT THE BOOK
Have you started calling your wife
'mummy'? Do your speeches contain one or several Piet Hein-quotes?
Have you started driving a motor cycle because you miss the feeling
of having something between your legs? In that case, you have truly
become an oldish man, and in this book you will be able to discover
which type you belong to.
An indispensable work of reference
for all you men, who have passed forty years of age. Test your
mental condition and get good advice on how you can share your
incredibly large knowledge about almost everything in a considerate
manner.
The book also contains a catalogue
of inspiration on 99 subjects about which you can complain. Ranging
from public opinion poll firms that call you in the middle of your
favourite TV-show to ask you about your attitude towards liquid
margarine, to the wellness-hysteria, where even the smallest sink
on a roadside inn is appointed "luxury spa". In other words, enough
material for several weeks of grumbling.
Read the fascinating tale of the
function and history of the nose hair trimmer, and have a look at
the oldish man's want list, which can be used year after year.
