One morning I
was listening to the radio while
driving to work. The D.J. was interviewing
one
of the writers of the book
"The
Warning Lable Book".
I
was amazed at how stupid Corporate
America
thinks we are.
Either
that or maybe it has something to do
with
all the stupid people out there that jump
at
every opportunity to sue somebody.
Which
ever it is, I got a good laugh out of it!!!!
I
thought it would be good bathroom reading
for
family and friends who came to visit me,
so
I went to the bookstore to buy it.
After
reading it, I have to admit, I started
checking
the labels myself. The ones I saw
were,
in fact, what the book stated they were.
Hence,
my dedicated page to the companies
that
hire really expensive lawyers to write
this
stuff , and to the authors of this book
who
have a knack for turning a legal issue
into
a pleasant bathroom experience!
I
am listing a few excerpts from the book
that
I find particularly amusing.
If
you want to read the book in it's entirety,
it
is written by;
Joey
Green, Tony Dierckins, and Tim Nyberg.
