France, Jacques LeFevrier left nothing to chance when he decided to commit suicide. He stood at the top of a tall cliff and tied a noose around his neck. He tied the other end of the rope to a large rock. He drank some poison and set fire to his clothes. He even tried to shoot himself at the last moment. He jumped and fired the pistol. The bullet missed him completely and cut through the rope above him. Free of the threat of hanging, he plunged into the sea. The sudden dunking extinguished the flames and made him vomit the poison. He was dragged out of the water by a kind fisherman and was taken to a hospital, where he died of hypothermia.
» Ted Nugent on Deer Hunting
Published 10/12/2006
While on a European tour, Ted was being interviewed by a French
journalist. The journalist asked, "What do you think the last thought is
in the head of a deer before you shoot it? Is it, `Are you my friend?`or is
it `Are you the one who killed my brother?'"
Nugent replied, "They aren't capable of that kind of thinking. All they care about is - 'What am I going to eat next' 'Who am I going to screw next' and 'Can I run fast enough to get away', "They are very much like the French."

Traffic from some mainstream directories is almost always low and rarely seen as part of the equation.

Writing a Memoir: Should You Do It?
|
|
With the tremendous success of such memoirs as Frank McCourt’s "Angela’s Ashes," Mary Karr’s "The Liar’s Club," and Dave Eggers’s "A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius," the 1990s and early 2000s saw an explosion in the genre. The boom was seen in the number of memoirs acquired by publishers, the number of titles shelved in the memoir section in bookstores, and, as a result, the number of memoirs unfolding on writers’ computer screens across the country.
