I saw this in the bookstore yesterday on the bestsellers shelf. What a perversion! Just another indicator how modern society is moving down the toilet swirl.

Was it on the Non-Fiction rack?

What gets me is the lack of qualification for a bookstore to advertise something as non-fiction.

Take for instance Amazon, at this second, the second place book on the bestsellers list under the categorization of history -> United States -> Civil War is Shaara's The Killer Angels. I wonder if I go into early 1900s if I will find the movie Titanic?

Yes it was! But even as fiction, it is sacrilege.

What do you expect from an MTV Comedy Producer http://www.amazon.com/Seth-Grahame-S...ntt_dp_epwbk_0.

The fact that he was the coordinating producer of 2 episodes of History Mysteries in 2001 on the History channel is pretty disturbing.

This from a channel that regularly shows UFOs, ghosts, & monsters as "History".

We need to bear in mind that the merchants exist to make money. There is nothing wrong with that, but it is the prime motive.

Sic caveat emptor! The words still ring true.

Got no problem with that, just classify your categories accurately and don't false advertise.

This vampire culture spreading in the US is getting old. These kids and promoters need to be slapped around, or maybe even have an appointment with a wooden stake.

Society is not swirling in the toilet; it's down the drain. No upbringing,liberal society. No Butt-Whoopins when needed. I currently dont't have the energy to get started on this and don't want to offend any screamin' Libs (it's 0110 and 0430 will soon be here); But maybe later.
