Mr. Nag is attracted to books with titles I wouldn't glance at twice. Some time ago I told you about his refusal to donate The Book of Irish Weirdness to a charity booksale because it was one of his legion of favourites. Currently he keeps The Book of Jewish Values close at hand. He's not Jewish but he informs me that this handy tome has helped him to resolve a number of dilemmas.
"Like what?" I asked.
"Like how to consult with a wife of small stature," he replied. The answer, according to Rabbi Telushkin, is: "If your wife is short, bend down and whisper to her and get her opinion."
This is good advice but it was a dilemma? Who knew?
