Description: Family Home Screaming (A Collection of Mormon Humor) (Volume 4) Product Description Product Description Fourth book in the Series! Just when you thought it was safe, Pat & Kirby follow you home. •If families are forever, will Mom always have gray hair? •What happens when the dog makes more sense than your kids? •Planned Parenthood. The perfect oxymoron? •Is selling your teenager for 3 cents a pound really good family value? •Fatherhood. Shouldn't I have a license to do this? If questions like these plague you and yours - or worse, if they make sense - you need this book. Pat and Kirby delve deeply into the secrets of effective parenting (there are three, and no one knows what they are), and explore what makes relatively nice men and women want to hurt themselves by having kids. The fourth in their wild conspiracy series that began with Sunday of the Living Dead, Salt Lake Tribune columnist Robert Kirby and cartoonist Pat Bagley join farces again, this time over something none of us can escape - family. About the Author Robert Kirby was born into a military family. After completing high school he served a two-year mission in Uruguay for his church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, where he learned to speak Spanish. Upon his return he pursued a career in law enforcement. His first work as a policeman was with the Springville, Utah police department (1979). While taking night classes at nearby Brigham Young University Kirby began writing columns for the local newspapers, first the Springville Daily Herald, and later the Utah County Journal (writing under the pen name Officer "Blitz" Kreeg). In 1989 Kirby decided to leave police work and devote himself to full-time writing. He has written a column for the Salt Lake Tribune since 1994, and has written at least nine books. Kirby is a popular convention speaker, and travels widely to appear at conventions and meetings. His newspaper columns have won several regional awards. Kirby, who is active in the LDS Church, often writes about its teachings and how its members interpret those teachings in their daily lives. Since most of the SL Tribune's readership is non-LDS, Kirby attempts to explain (usually in a humorous way) the LDS way of thinking to outsiders. He refers to himself as an "OxyMormon". This approach either alienates those Latter-day Saints who feel their beliefs should not be satirized, or endears itself to the reader. Kirby presently (2009) lives in Herriman, Utah. He and his wife had three daughters.
