Over the weekend I read Mark Steele’s book, “flashBANG: How I Got Over Myself”.

I loved the book and thoroughly enjoyed it, but I really just wanted to write something to move the dancing walrus post out of the number one slot on my blog… hence this post.

So, in a completely uninspired act of non-writing, I’m going to copy the book description word-for-word from Amazon.com:

“Mark Steele found himself trying to be a good Christian, but felt he wasn’t making any permanent difference. His life was turning into a flashBANG — something that makes a lot of noise but leaves no permanent indentation. In this hilarious memoir, Steele gives autobiographical accounts of enduring 40 days of facial paralysis, suffering public embarrassment at a Presidential Inauguration, receiving treatments of shock therapy from a first-timer and giving blood in a Mexican hospital. Each story brings Steele closer to the realization that being a Christian is more than just saying you are. In the end, he reveals his secret to living a more meaningful life—how he got over himself.”
