This fun to read book is the perfect adornment for your coffee table. It is guaranteed to catch the attention of guests, make them laugh, and stimulate conversation. It also is a great stocking stuffer for your favorite curmudgeon.
Philosophilus is an ancient Athenian philosopher and curmudgeon reputedly being channeled by a man named Richard Calkins. It has been said that the channeling is facilitated by the fact that Mr. Calkins is as much a curmudgeon as is Philosophilus himself.
During their discourses, Philosophilus has learned much about modern times and post-Athenenian history from Mr. Calkins. Not surprisingly, Philosophilus does not approve of most of what he has learned; but then, he doesn’t approve of much of anything.
Following are a few samples of Philosophilus’s musings:

Philosophilus
With the passage of time, man has progressively lost the ability to create things of enduring value. The wheel, which was created eons before the dawn of history is still very much in vogue. The abacus was used for some four millennia before being outmoded by the calculator. Whale oil lanterns were used for generations before being replaced by gas, which, in turn, was quickly replaced by electricity. The latest tablet computer is obsolete in nanoseconds.

Liberals and conservatives no longer listen to each other, and with good reason. Each already knows what the other is going to say and knows it to be wrong.
Philosophilus
Artistic genius at work is a profoundly messy thing.
