Maybe I'm naive... but my mouth is still hanging open.

Here's some links to info on a book that a client sent me last night. Stunned. That's all I can say.

How to have affairs AND advice on why marriage is good... all in the same book... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?isbn=1580084141

http://bookstore.mywebsportscenter.com/n_1580084141.htm

Info on the author:

http://www.the50milerule.com/50mileauthor3.html

Q/A to make you see red:

http://www.the50milerule.com/asktheadulteress.html

Now, being a professional and all.... I can't really suggest or advocate hate mail. But if you were to say.... come up with the idea on your own..... I would have to respect your right to take such action. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" />

OH MY.... Do the bonds of marriage mean nothing anymore? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" />

Ms. Whatever her name is, is lucky that she isn't around me or I would give her a piece of my mind!

"Discover who makes a suitable affair partner"

Duh!

"the rules you must never break"

How about the rule of faithfullnes? What do you mean the rules you must never break? What about that?

Ooooooo, I am about to boil over! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" />

She is a prime example of what is wrong with society today.

I am disgusted.

I hate people like that. Bet if she had a teenage daughter she would be demanding the head of any author that would write a book called "How To Seduce Minor Girls".

But she can publish an equally damaging book with the only difference being the age of the victims that will suffer from her so called instructional" book.

Makes we want to write a book entitled "How To Car Bomb Greedy Idiots And Get Away With It!" <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />

Okay - I have to confess. I sent Cerri that link only because I knew it would pull her chain.

I'M SORRY!!

I'm 99% sure Ms. Brandt doesn't believe a word of what she has written, and is just another huckster out to make a few quick bucks from the gullible. Repulsive behavior, to be sure, but like most cons it will only work by playing off the vitum's own weaknesses, (selfishness, lust, greed, etc.).

To atone for my misbehavior, here is a link reporting on a study that shows that working thru marital problems is better than divorcing:

***How to have affairs AND advice on why marriage is good... all in the same book...***

Well, if you want to sell books, you tell people what they want to hear.

It sure seems to me that most people who cheat are looking for a way to have both the comforts of marriage *and* the fun of dating, all at the same time. I'd say most BS experience here would bear that out.

If people just wanted the single lifestyle, they'd stay single. But they don't. They try every way they can to beat the system and have both marriage *and* dating. Hence, this book. It'll prolly outsell *Harry Potter.*

OMG!!! I have an open mind and believe there is a place for everything...now I know where fog-bound individuals go for advice.

You're right, there's a book for everything. And she is feeding EXACTLY what some of our spouses want to hear...

Can't believe she is giving advice...ugh!!!

Next she'll write a book on how it's OK to steal from your company (as long as it's under $50 at a time) or how it's OK to stab, kill, maim, or torture (the rule here is only until you're 50).
