Schultz would have been happy spending the summer getting high, doing some brewin’, and watching his best friend Stamm sell drugs out of his parents’ garage. But he got bored watching Stamm slip depressingly into a mysterious addiction, so Schultz goes in search of new highs. That’s when he finds out what being a real Boug Boy is all about. Boug Boys opens a window into the life and exploits of a group of ass-kicking, whiskey-drinking, drug-taking boys who fear nothing except sobriety. They live life like they listen to music: FULL BLAST! Like savage, smart-mouthed animals in suburban captivity, they run wild, steal anything not bolted down, attack anything that shows aggression, and smoke anything they can’t drink. They speak their own language and follow their own rules. Curt is an older guy and a real bad ass. He’s been shacked up with two girls who own a party house called The Duplex. Along with some other Boug Boys, like Dick Sinner and Fooky, they find themselves in the middle of drunken, drug-induced shenanigans that are the things of which legends are made. This humorous coming-of-age tale raises the roof on teen drug culture.

"Can I now, a white-haired man who gets into the movies at reduced cost, do I have any magic words left? Can I get a miracle? If I can recall my youth and understand it, that may be the miracle I seek now." When David Hays was 66 and had joined a synagogue for the first time in over fifty years, he decided to study Hebrew and be a bar mitzvah. And so this world-renowned theatrical designer, founder of the legendary National Theatre of the Deaf, father of two grown children and coauthor of the bestselling "My Old Man and the Sea," borrowed his grandson's beginner's Hebrew workbook and joined a class of twelve-year-olds. It launched a wondrous journey of faith and community. In "Today I Am a Boy," Hays's new world begins to intersect with his own history: on Yom Kippur, Hays, who has sailed around Cape Horn with his son, reads the story of Jonah to the congregation and gives a sermon on the Old Testament and the sea. His long-dormant love of learning is wholly rekindled. At the stage of life when most of us begin to slow down, Hays feels more alive than ever, rejuvenated by newfound connections to his youth and faith. "Today I Am a Boy" is a brave, clear-eyed and joyous examination of life.

Going from being angry at God to falling on my knees to repent for years of misdirected anger, dealing with a head injury that caused me to have to learn how to read again, to countless injuries, a near-death experience to becoming the biggest hypocrite of them all...what do all of these things have in common? God brought me through all of these issues. When the enemy attacks, we need to cling to God, not run away from him. I was saved at the very young age of nine. I truly did not understand what this meant at that time. I would learn as I grew up, and I would consider the church that I attended on my own (my family wanted nothing to do with church at that point in time) as my refuge. It was my happy place. I loved being involved with church. Years later, I would go through something that made me angry at God, and that anger lasted far too long. Thankfully, a friend of mine would recommend something that would make me realize that my anger was misdirected. At that moment, I knew what I had to do. I had to pray and repent. A few years after this, my marriage looked as though it was too broken to save until God stepped in and did what I thought was impossible. He saved my marriage. He brought my husband and I back together, made us stronger, and we renewed our vows.
