Book Description
Fact: Chocolate contains the alkaloid theobromine, which in high doses can be toxic to humans, and in even small amounts can kill dogs, parrots, horses, and cats. This means that despite its name, the Kit-Kat candy bar is not a recommended snack for your kitty-cat. I wonder how many cats have died because of this confusion. Fact: The most germ-laden place on your toilet isn't the seat or even the bowl--it's the handle. The solution: Don't flush. Let the next guy worry about it. There are "just the facts"--and then there are just the facts that will frighten the bejeezus out of you. And thanks to this little gem of a bathroom book, you'll never look at the world the same way again, without, er, dry heaving a little bit. From the sneaky fish that can swim up our genitals to the E. coli bacteria lurking in the very water we drink, disturbing phenomena are everywhere we turn. Educational, entertaining, and undeniably horrifying, this book isn't guaranteed to help you, um, go to the bathroom, but it's certain to make your time there more...informed.

Book Description
Balancing the Scale By: Caesar Rondina Balancing the Scale is an exploration of the different types of time: the time you see on the clock, and the time kept by your body internally. “We don’t think about time in its true sense,” Rondina writes, “because frankly, it scares us. Our fear is not so much about time itself, but what time represents.” Rondina explores how your body-clock time is finite and offers his own lifetime of wisdom learned throughout his career as a paramedic, to drive home his advice for finding balance, improving quality of life, and enjoying what time we have here on Earth.
