This is the book that began it all for Brian...
...it was his first one published.
Published version of the cover for "All Men Are Dogs"
and its snarky stream-of-consciousness one-liner jokes.
100 Names of Cats and Dogs is available for Kindle.
It is also available as a paperback book.
As it suggests, there may be nothing that a
puppy licking your face can't cure.
It surveys pet owners, their pet names, and
some of the stories that make their pets special.
All Men Are Dogs
Uses sophomoricly-snarky shoot-from-the-hip writing
styles that savor one-liner salty guy-humor.
(Not for the mamby-pamby or blushingly bashful... )

(Tidy Up to Clear the Clutter Before and After a Break-In)
Here's the HMS paperback book

In other words, it's a chronicle of how Humpty Dumpty
put himself back together again.
Much like a dude's version of Marie Kondo's
"The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up"
