I noticed this in the Sunday paper yesterday--The Secret, #1 on NY Times bestseller list in the 'advice' category (and I think it's been there awhile).

Meanwhile, the book entitled Work Hard, Save More, Spend Less has reportedly not sold enough copies to cover publishing costs. Book-writing expert Reid Mohr from the Textual Institute of Technology, in a recent report to publishing executives, states that the best way to achieve a profitable book is to tell others how to get rich quick. Reid notes that there are many subcategories in this genre, including investing in real estate, internet technology firms, and even the more obvious category of books which detail how to write and market books about writing and marketing books. Reid gave an example of one such book entitled How To Succeed in Publishing Without Really Trying, by noted author Rhom Dier.

That just supports the "law of attraction" described in The Secret.

The author of The Secret wants to make a lot of money so she does.

The author of Work Hard, Save More, Spend Less wants to work hard, save more, and spend less and so his book doesn't sell well forcing him to do just that.

Simple common sense, people. This is how the world works. Get with the program.

Incidently, real estate prices are starting to fall because Tim has been blogging about it.

McMansions are the new Split Levels, but it's the kitchens that I think will really define this era. Every single house seems to have the same cues in the kitchen. I think one day we'll look at kitchens with granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, cherry cabinets, and wood flooring the same way we currently look at kitchens with Formica counter tops, Harvest Gold appliances, dark oak cabinets, and linoleum flooring.

This was probably a pretty kick ass room back in 1977.
