About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 I was interviewing for a promotion from secretary to daytime casting coordinator at ABC in 1979. I was excited, but some felt that I wasn’t tough enough to manage a job like that. I was humiliated in front of a crowd of strangers by a strange man who harassed me because I was too nice.
#2 The mime was a wolf in sheep’s clothing, and he attacked any woman who made the mistake of stepping through the crowd. I waited for him to see me, and when he did, I lifted my can of pepper spray and sprayed him in the face.
#3 I was walking down the street with my canister when I was attacked by a mime. I dropped my canister, and a larger mime came and picked it up. I turned around, and the two of us struggled to get to the canister. I got there first, and grabbed it.
#4 I grew up in Israel in the 1980s, and my father’s mission in life was to make sure that I grew up to be a real man. He took me shooting every Saturday when I was four years old, and when I was six or seven years old, he took advantage of Israel’s surprisingly relaxed car-rental insurance policies and rented a car to take me on driving lessons.

My father was a motorcycle bandit, and I hated spending time with him. But he was inducting me into the International Brotherhood of Macho Men, and every chance he got, he would take me to see his heroes, such as Sylvester Stallone or Chuck Norris.
#6
My father was a bank robber. He was good at it, and he became popular. But he got cocky, and eventually he was caught. He spent the rest of his life in prison.
