Timothy's Take-Out - The Little Novel That Could
Perhaps there are solid reasons for Timothy's Take-Out's success. For one thing, it was penned by Paul J. Barker, who even today continues to eat, sleep and breathe fast food. He operates a restaurant in Southern Ontario (that he wishes to assure everyone is nothing like Timothy's Take-Out), and probably has more service-related yarns to spin than anyone in the business. The story itself is irresistible: Introverted loner Carl Fellows can spend summer at the beach only if he hires on at the wildest fast food joint in otherwise tranquil Robinson's Pt.
Young Mr. Fellows takes the job, and is immediately besieged by that which he hates most: swarms and swarms of insufferable human beings. Rather than give up the job (or embark on a mad killing spree), he channels his feelings of helplessness and rage into a somewhat unrealistic pursuit of fame and fortune.
When not flipping burgers, he's either in the gym preparing for his next amateur boxing match or holed up in his dilapidated beach house writing music.Being as versatile as a Swiss army knife doesn't hurt this novel, either. There is something for everyone within its pages.
If it's a love story you seek, you will be charmed (and just a little bit disturbed) by Fellows' hopeless obsession with a coworker several years younger than himself. Adventure abounds as our hero becomes a veritable Tasmanian Devil in the boxing ring, and single-handedly wages war upon a very unusual street gang. Add a pinch of mystery to the proceedings, and a humongous dollop of comedy, and you have one of the most compulsively readable novels of this generation or any other: "Timothy's Take-Out."Another great thing about this novel ? you do not have to leave the sanctity of your computer room to order a copy.

In the early stage of Alzheimer?s, what is the best environment?
In the first stage of Alzheimer's disease, memory loss is not as pronounced as in the later stages of the disease. People still remember places they live in and familiar faces. They are still lucid and involved in their own decisions. If your loved one lives alone, you may wonder if he lives in a safe environment. If you believe the environment may not be safe, you can hire a geriatric care manager to assess the situation, and if necessary (and if your finances support it), in-home care to come...
