The One Deadly Mistake We All Make

"The Bible is the Word of God. In it He makes known to man His Character and Will. It is given by inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and is profitable to all, teaching men what to believe, showing them in what they are wrong, instructing them in what is right. Although written by men, God directed them what to write and how to write, that as a rule of faith and guide to practice it might be perfect. A knowledge of this book is more to be desired than fine gold, for in understanding, believing and obeying it there is great reward, both here and hereafter." Quoted from "An Introductory History of The Manuscript and Early Printed Editions of the Holy Bible" (1876). The History of Man The Father they chose to disobey The Prophet they would not hear The Teacher they refused to be instructed by. From my earliest memory in time, I sensed things were not right. The words people spoke and the things they valued didn't make much sense to me. When I arrived at the age of legal adulthood I knew my life journey needed to focus on finding the answers to the "whys" of life-so I put myself through college, traveled, listened to the life stories of hundreds if not thousands of individuals (their true life story-not the story they play out in public), and studied the history and the basic core beliefs of established religions and famous philosophers. It wasn't until I took the time to study the "Book of Life" itself that I discovered the answers to the "whys" of life. I discovered The One Deadly Mistake.We All Make.

When it comes to humor, Americans are said to hold nothing sacred. Deadly Mistakes: Real Obituaries Gone Amusingly Wrong is an example of that sentiment. Given our near obsession with fame and celebrity, it should come as no surprise that ordinary people would go to extraordinary lengths to be considered noteworthy. Deadly Mistakes provides the evidence in the obituaries of the unfamous. Average folks are remembered by family and friends in send-offs that unintentionally go off the rails in amusing and bizarre ways. What's to be said of someone whose family wants him to be remembered for inventing an electric pickle...that stinks? Of someone who, not wanting to give up his love of uniforms, became a campus police officer? Or of someone who achieved the mysterious title of Puissant Sovereign of the Red Cross of Constantine? Plenty. All this and more is included in Deadly Mistakes: Real Obituaries Gone Amusingly Wrong. These obituaries have not been edited (except for length and to remove last names). They stand on their own as commentary on the human need to find meaning in it all somehow, some way. Deadly Mistakes should remind readers of one thing: it's best to go out laughing. Just ask the guy whose memorial service was held at Hammerhead's Bar, just east of The Strip, in Vegas.

On April 15, 2002, Air China flight 129, a Boeing 767-200ER, operated by Air China, en route from Beijing, China to Busan, Korea, crashed on Mt. Dotdae, near Gimhae Airport, Busan. Of the 166 persons on board, 37 persons survived the crash, while 129 occupants were killed. The Korean Aviation Accident Investigation Board (KAAIB) determined that the probable cause of the crash was pilot error due to poor crew resource management and lost situational awareness during the circling approach of the runway. The Chinese investigation team pointed out that the Korean ATC was not fully licensed and mistakenly directed the airliner to descend to a wrong altitude and that the airport did not inform the crew of the weather conditions at the time. A contributing factor was that the airline made all announcements in Chinese and English, while most passengers were Korean.

Car mechanic Fiorimond is irresistibly drawn to beautiful, provocative Elle, a recent arrival in his sleepy Provence village. Their relationship develops quickly, but even as they make plans to marry, Fiorimond doesn't know what to make of his bride-to-be: is she an enigma or simply vacuous? In fact the troubled Elle is on a mission to exact revenge on Fiorimond's family for a crime committed decades earlier, with a plan that will ultimately destroy all their lives, including hers. Set in the 1970s, and available in English again for the first time in many years, this is a true classic of French suspense. It has everything: stylish writing, clever construction, an unforgettable leading lady, and most importantly leaves the reader guessing until the very last page. In the 1980s it was turned into a successful film with Isabelle Adjani.
