America is waiting for a message of some sort or another

Stupid book deal of the week:
Todd Hopkins and Ray Hilbert's JANITOR BOB, a Christian business parable in which a janitor helps a CEO to reevaluate how he is leading his business and his life, and ultimately how to become more fulfilled.

Wonder how long it took them to think that up. Here's how it probably went: They cooked it up during a round of golf, went home, wrote a detailed outline, then sent it off to some offshore writing factory to be drafted. Then they spent a week editing, and bingo. This is the shit that non-readers read.

I'll bet "Janitor Bob" is not -- like most of the "janitors" (now there's an archaic word) who clean offices nowadays -- a Latino woman who is the sole support of her three or four kids.
