Default How To Avoid Huge Ships
http://www.amazon.com/dp/0870334336/ref=tsm_1_fb_lk

Some of the reviews:

Quote:
I bought How to Avoid Huge Ships as a companion to Captain Trimmer's other excellent titles: How to Avoid a Train, and How to Avoid the Empire State Building. These books are fast paced, well written and the hard won knowledge found in them is as inspirational as it is informational. After reading them I haven't been hit by anything bigger than a diesel bus. Thanks captain!
Quote:
I live near a park and frequently walk around the local area. Given the amount of dog mess that is on the pavements I thought this book would be the ideal read to stop me having to scrape my shoes on the grass before going home. It was only after it arrived that I looked closely at the title and realised it said 'How to Avoid Huge SHIPS'. A simple error that means I am still treading on massive examples of canine excrement. Having said that, I read the book anyway, and I'm pleased to say I'm not even having near misses with huge ships anymore. No sir, they aint getting anywhere near me!
There are another thousand gems like these two. I am short of breath at the moment and have a very sore jaw

If you want some laughs on comedic reviews on products, go here: http://www.uhpinions.com/ - probably not safe for work at times.

Cheers!
