Handbook to a Happier Life Makes Its Movie Debut

Handbook to a Happier Life won an honorary Oscar, last night, for best looking book in a movie. Ok, so I'm kidding about the Oscar but seeing a photo of my book in a movie scene was pretty cool.

I'm still working on finding the time to comment on the movie, School for Scoundrels, but my first reaction is that if the lead character, Jon Heder applied what I suggested in Handbook to a Happier Life, he would have saved the proce of the Billy Bob Thornton seminar, but then there would have been no movie, so I guess it's good he didn't:-)

I ws just happy to see it there. I had no idea it was in the movie, nor did my publisher:-)
