Book excerpt: Our fast-paced world is filled with books, tapes and television shows that tell us how great life can be if we just listen to them and buy their products. It seems that our lives need to follow the same road as the crowd or we won't be happy. In The Back Porch Philosopher, Doug McLaughlin uses cliches, both popular and unheard of, to relay stories and spread the wisdom that we all have the power within us to find happiness. McLaughlin's engaging words and conversational style will make you laugh and make you think about life's choices.
