Fantastic. Glad I finally picked it up and got through it. Would very much like to read biographies on Burnham and Olmsted after this…

Finally reading this after everyone told me to four years…
The average human lifespan is absurdly, outrageously, insultingly brief: if you live to 80, you …
So refreshing reading this, when all the books I’ve been recommended recently have been about min-maxing your productive potential, and this book flips the question: what are you doing all of this min-maxing for? Why is this important? What IS important to you? How would we all approach life differently after really contemplating (and I mean REALLY) the finality of our lives? Will be thinking about this book for a long time.
As women everywhere will attest, when it comes to understanding female sexuality, most guys know …
Should probably be recommended reading for penis-havers. Kerner lays forth in his book that PIV intercourse shouldn’t be the be-all and end-all, and that cunnilingus should be an integral part of sex, which he calls “coreplay.” Standing ovation from women everywhere! Something women obviously know, but many men are still unfortunately in the dark about.
“QUESTION: ‘Sometimes when I’m in the middle of going down on a woman, I feel like it’s never going to end. Is there any rule of thumb as to how long a cunnilingus session should last?’ (Jack, 32) ANSWER: Yes, there’s a very precise answer as to how long a cunnilingus session should last—as long as it takes to bring her to orgasm.”
And the crowd goes wild!!!
Enjoy a couple more highlights from this book that had me dying of laughter:

“Take one small lick for man, one giant lick for mankind. Cunnilinguists of the world unite. The revolution is upon us. Vive la Vulva!”
“Grab your dusty college Shakespeare off the shelf, commit a few lines to memory, and then use your tongue to iambically stimulate her clitoris. Your performance will surely garner a standing ovation.”
How will I ever think of Shakespeare and cunnilingus the same after a zinger like that?! The two will forever be indelibly linked in my mind.

Enjoyed this book about actor Sam Heughan’s adventure traversing the West Highland Way, and his journey in becoming an actor. There were quite a few memorable points that were touching, hilarious, somber, and hopeful. A couple of my favorites:
The moment Sam launches a surprise fart attack on his fellow actors while in full Batman costume. The lows Sam recounts in his failures in making it in Hollywood (twice). The elation upon Sam finally attaining a breakout role as Jamie Fraser in Outlander. Getting caught taking a silly mushroom selfie by a fellow hiker on the West Highland Way. Sam recounting the hilarious image of being strapped to the top of a taxi and simulating horseback riding due to a film production’s low budget. The account of Sam losing the only recording of his father’s life story, recorded right before his father lost his life to cancer, made poetic because his father chose to remove himself from Sam’s life.
The best way to get through this book is by listening to the audiobook, as Sam Heughan narrates it himself! Was a lovely read to help me get through Droughtlander.
