More daring than Dilbert, more subversive than Marx, this ultimate manifesto for millions of lazy "workers" at every level presents the tips, tactics, and techniques for reclaiming lives, sanity--and mid-day naps.Featuring inspiring profiles of famous lazy people and a lexicon of indispensable words to buff up a shabby resume, this book is truly a guide to life in the slow lane.

When authors Billy Staples and Rich Herschlag are asked to write a baseball column for The Trentonian, they decide to put their own stamp on it. Covering primarily Philadelphia and New York, they forego the dirt and seek out baseballs role models, well known and not so well known. They sidestep the steroids and find the stories of courage, dedication and humanity the mainstream press so often misses.Shortly after the All-Star break, another storyline develops. In Philadelphia, the 2008 World Champions are beginning to reemerge. Up the turnpike in New York, the Yankees are showing shades of their former selves from a decade earlier. One by one, division rivals fall by the wayside, and on October 25 only the Yanks and Phils remain standing.The Phillies-Yankees World Series is a battle of baseball titans. For Staples and Herschlagwho in their first full year get to cover it from field levelit is the ultimate reward for doing it their way.
