Summer's Here

Summer’s here, I’m for that.
I got my rubber sandals got my straw hat.
Got my cold beer, I’m just glad that it’s here.

Summer’s here, what a ride.
I got my Frisbee, Super Ball and Slip ‘N Slide.
My Hacky Sack’s near and I’m just glad that it’s here.

My New Book is Almost Here!
May 29, 2008
Due out this fall, I am chomping at the bit to show off something from the WHAM-O Super Book: Celebrating 60 Years Inside the Fun Factory! Chronicle describes it this way:
Wham-O’s irresistible toys have practically defined childhood for generations, bringing kids—and adults—together indoors and out.
WHAM-O SuperBook celebrates more than 250 fun and sometimes off-the-wall playthings dreamed up with a creative abandon appropriate for a company started by two childhood friends: from early outdoor adventure toys like Dueling Swords and Jungle Machetes to sporty classics like the Frisbee, Hula Hoop, and Hacky Sack, to more oddball entertainments such as Mr. Hootie, Magic Window, and Instant Fish.
Featuring a fascinating history of the toys, and packed with photographs and vintage ads and graphics, the astonishing WHAM-O SuperBook is amazing fun for everyone!
Exclusively for the fans of this website, here’s sneak peek at the tentative cover:
