'You’re crazy!'A number of family and friendsWhy crazy? Could be he moved to the Middle East after the Gulf War and stayed for eight years. Could be he moved there a second time, staying for nearly seven more. Could be he retired at 44, agreeing to buy his retirement home, in South America, on his first day there without seeing the nearest town in the daytime... for starters.Does this small-town boy from humble beginnings live in another reality? Yes, after realizing at an early age that if he lived a life like most everyone, he’d get a life like most everyone. John wanted something different. John got something different, and then some, and then some more. His unique perspective on life will leave you enlightened.From his earliest memories to his latest doings, in MISFIT 3, the third book in the series, John recounts 36 more of his make-you-laugh, make-you-cry, make-you-think stories. Like jigsaw puzzle pieces, as you continue putting them together, you’ll see more of the big picture, the story of John’s life unexpected.
