The Art of Racing in the Rain01:33:45 PMFor my trip to Orlando for Lotusphere 
I picked up a copy of this book. As someone who loves racing in the rain, I was intrigued by the title from the time the book first came out.
But when I found out the narrator was a dog, for reasons I can't exactly explain, I worried the name was a come-on--that it was too much to hope somebody had actually written something compelling, thoughtful, about racing--and somehow that kept me from pulling the trigger.
Then, when it became popular with, well, normal people, that pushed me even further away.
That, I can tell you now, was time sqandered. Wasted. Frittered away.
Gestures are all that I have; sometimes they must be grand in nature. And while I occasionally step over the line and into the world of the melodramatic, it is what I must do in order to communicate clearly and effectively. In order to make my point understood without question. I have not words I can rely on because, much to my dismay, my tongue was designed long and flat and loose, and therefore, is a horribly ineffective tool for pushing food around my mouth while chewing, and an even less effective tool for making clever and complicated polysllabic sounds that can be linked together to form sentences. And that's why I'm here now waiting for Denny to come home--he should be here soon--lying on the cool tiles of the kitchen floor in a puddle of my own urine.
