SYNOPSIS: David Acuff is a Hollywood insider, military brat, a comic, a piano recital survivor, a BMW murderer, an offensive linebacker, a dog licker, a divorced tik-tokker, a father of three Jedi Princesses and possibly a child prodigy.
He is also a semi-centurion. That’s a word he made up when he turned 50 this year because “quinquagenarian” sounds like a horse disease or a Menudo song. And before he could move on to the next nifty fifty, he wanted to process how he’d lived, laughed, loved and litigated along the way.
So he wrote this semi-memoir. A semi-memie, let’s call it. This is not a self-help book. More of a self-humor. A self-assessment after some self-reflection. Inspired by true self-fiction.
It’s a conundrum wrapped in an enigma, like a kitten burrito. This book was written to make God laugh so hard the Holy Spirit comes out his nose. So, if you learn a lesson or get inspired along the way, that’s on you, buddy.
Anyway, this hilarious exploratory trip down memory lane taught him a very provocative lesson. What doesn’t kill you makes you funnier. You’ve been warned.
