The Best of Engle's Angle: A Humorous Slant on Life and our Wacky World

Kevin Engle has been entertaining readers for 10 years with his “Engle’s Angle” column and its humorous look at our everyday lives. In The Best of Engle’s Angle, a collection of more than 100 favorites, you’ll know why he doesn’t want to shake hands with people in church. Plus, meet a dentist who does play-by-play commentary while checking your teeth and watch out for office coworkers when there’s free food. Do you enjoy choosing between 47 different types of toothpaste on store shelves or trying to find that one particular movie in those gigantic $5 DVD bins? Neither does he. Ever had to get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, but didn’t want to? And can you keep up with that annoying neighbor who’s always a few steps ahead of you? Good luck. Is glitter really necessary? Do you like hearing those same 10 holiday songs over and over again? And what’s more festive than pink pigs at Christmas? Even when the subject is serious, like the passing of his father, you’ll smile when you read about the lessons Dad taught him. The Best of Engle’s Angle is a snapshot of what makes life interesting. And funny.

Kevin Engle is retired, although many who know him don't think he was ever gainfully employed. Most days you'll find him sitting in front of his computer screen, pretending to work. His wife is a very patient and understanding woman. They live in a log house, not a cabin, near Shenandoah National Park in Virginia.
