Red Green’s wisdom, wit and whimsy on mankind’s greatest challenge . . . now in paperback.
Red Green is celebrated as one of the handiest men in North America. But as well as being a purveyor of inventive practical advice on, for example, making a jetpack from two propane tanks, a hybrid car from recycled golf carts and satellite dishes, and a kiddie ride from a bar stool attached to the agitator of a washing machine, Red Green is also noted for his insights into that most difficult of assembly jobs, human relationships.
His previous bestselling tome, How to Do Everything, showed Red dipping his toe into the self-help genre with such items as “How to make dinner more romantic” and “The easy way to raise children.” Now Red Green–a veteran husband (of Bernice), father, soul-searcher, philosopher and observer–has devoted an entire book to sharing with other battle-weary and confused males all he has learned about the differences between the sexes.
Set out in approximately chronological order, from teen dating to the last words of men (“You know, honey, in the last couple of years, you’ve really packed on the beef”), this is the testosterone owner’s manual to every aspect of finding a mate and then learning to deal with her growing disappointment in you. The man who has already shared such morsels as “If you can’t be handsome, be handy,” and “Quando omni flunkus moritati,” (“When all else fails, play dead”) here presents a Ph.D. in life-lessons about the most vexing problem facing mankind today, or any day: women.

Author
Red Green
RED GREEN is the leader of Possum Lodge, Chapter 11, a northern Ontario eyesore. He is friendly, inventive, cheap and as honest as the day is long, which means he’s the least honest on December 21. When he works on his handyman projects, Red is not stupid, he’s impatient. So he uses duct tape to “buy time.” Red Green is the star of The Red Green Show, which had first runs in Canada and the US from 1991 until 2006, making it the longest running live-action scripted comedy in the world. It continues to be enormously popular in reruns here and in the States. Red Green is the creation of Canadian comedian and writer Steve Smith.
