About the Book
A six year old today has the ability to search the collective knowledge of 6 billion people alive today and the 40 generations of mankind who have compiled history, events, culture and scientific data from all of recorded history.
Even with this awesome tool at hand, the world is still too complex, formidable and mystifying to most of us. Despite the wide-reaching power at our fingertips, most of us merely utilize the Internet to communicate with others. Many of us keep abreast of the events of the day, the fads of tomorrow, or use this incredible device to simply amuse ourselves by playing with the endless diversions and permutations presented by this modern Aladdin’s Lamp. Tool or toy, devil or angel, magic lamp or societal menace, today’s computer and Internet access is an ever unfolding modern phenomenon. As mesmerizing and tantalizing as the power of the Internet may be, much of the information available is pure brain fodder. Every so often, however, among the limitless explosion of material and matter made available to us through E-mail, there are bits and pieces, kernels of simple lore and homespun wit and wisdom that help us get through the overload of daily life.
The following is but a minuscule outpouring of this trivia and twist. Some of this e-mail minutia will make you laugh and some of it will make you cry. Some of it will make you think and some of it will make you wonder. For that purpose I commend it to your consideration, judgment, and conscience. In its own way this grassroots wit and wisdom says a lot about our world, our culture, our hopes and our dreams.
About the Author
Greg S. Kessler is a practicing attorney is St. Louis, MO, with more than 33 years of experience resolving complex civil and criminal matters. As a litigator his aggressive and practical style has ingratiated him with thousands of clients who have appreciated his down to earth, direct approach in solving every day legal problems. This manner of looking at the world and working with common disputes and controversy has caused him to view the Internet as an insightful outlet for everyday frustration and comment. As an early advocate and investigator of the Internet potential, he has collected and presented an interesting, amusing and diverse selection of actual e-mail wit and wisdom received over the last decade. Internet Wisdom is the modern day equivalent of earlier generations’ back yard commentary on every day life and absurdity.
In a small way, Mr. Kessler comments that this modern technological resource somewhat mirrors what he often sees played out in the courtrooms of today, "an attempt to solve the confusion of daily life with old-fashioned common sense and experience." As an interested observer of the modern scene, his book reflects on the daily world of the 21st century, struggling to translate every day complexity into simple meaning and acceptable solutions. This smattering of Internet "gossip" may actually say a lot about contemporary life. In any event, it contains elements of pure fun, true folly and real emotion. Enjoy the ride, you might even consider some of this fodder and fantasy as a real world dissection of the human condition. Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, may we now have your verdict.
