About this ebook

Did you know that 50 percent of American high school students think Sodom and Gomorrah were married? How about that in London, England, it is illegal to drive a car without sitting in the front seat? And then there is Howdy Doody's resident Native American, Chief Thunderthud, who belonged to the Ooragnak tribe. (Ooragnak is kangaroo spelled backward.)

These and thousands of other gems are included in this book. It's a book to strictly have fun with and cram your brain with pointless knowledge. You'll be surprised how often you'll quote it.

Kathleen lives in northeast Illinois with her husband of fifty-five years, and two cats, Goober and Piper who, she says really run the house. 4/21/2021: Kathleen Olson always had a great interest in history, and when it came to writing "Shadow Journeys', she was able to incorporate so many periods of the past into a fascinating story. World traveler and animal lover, she visited a hypnotherapist many years ago to get help in quitting smoking. A friendship developed and together they explored the concept of past lives thus opening a pathway into other realms. Kathleen lives in northeast Illinois with her husband of fifty-five years and their two cats, Goober and Piper. According to Kathleen, it's the cats that actually run the house.
