Have A Nice Day
Have A Nice Day: A Tale of Blood and Sweatsocks | Mick Foley, Mankind, WWF
6 posts | 15 read | 1 to read
Mick Foley is a nice man, a family man who loves amusement parks and eating ice cream in bed. So how to explain those Japanese death matches in rings with explosives, golden thumbtacks and barbed wire instead of rope? The second-degree burn tissue? And the missing ear that was ripped off during a bout-in which he kept fighting? Here is an intimate glimpse into Mick Foley's mind, his history, his work and what some might call his pathology. Now with a bonus chapter summarizing the past 15 months-from his experience as a bestselling author through his parting thoughts before his final match. A tale of blood, sweat, tears and more blood-all in his own words-straight from the twisted genius behind Cactus Jack, Dude Love, and Mankind.

Mehso-so

Former WWE/F wrestler's first book. It shows in spots, like the little too much taking shots at his friend Al Snow. Also the section on Owen Hart, while supposed to be endearing for a life taken too soon, manages to make him seem kind of like a prick. Overall though, the book shows the behind the scenes moments for one of wrestling's biggest stars. It is suprisingly long however read (735). Editing down would have been good idea.

1. The Big Comfy Couch. I can do Loonette the Clown's clockwork yoga; a reminder to get back to that, as morning exercise. 🎈
2. Have a Nice Day, by Mick Foley 😋
3. Greasy Garlic Bread. Probably with all the vampire jokes. 🦇😝
4. Valentines with family. I may visit by Hot Topic, already having Loonette socks. ♦️

Last weekend I went to a Rotary book sale. Found this book and bought it for my husband. I didn‘t look at it any closer than to grab the copy with the cleanest dust jacket. Got it home and we discovered it was both autographed and had the COA inside! Not a bad find for a buck!!

bookloo This is so cool! 7y

#masked Mick Foley's book was a good one for a reread. 😋 Another great idea is to check out his podcast interviews, including some recent chats on 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin's show. #aprilbookshowers 🎈
