True to John Jackshaw’s convoluted form, ”My Blind Spot; What I Hear Is Funnier than What You See” is his first published volume, while being the second in a book series. John’s favorite position is the juxtaposition, and MY BLIND SPOT (MBS) is that sweet spot of outrageous humor, juxtapositioned somewhere between Garrison Keillor, Dave Berry, and Detroit.
“My Blind Spot” is a logical progression from John Jackshaw’s illogical broadcasting career, which ultimately transmitted him to success on the live standup comedy stage. Standup demands a flurry of punch lines, rapid-fire laughs confined to a finite measure of time. MBS is Mr. Jackshaw’s vehicle (there’s the Detroit connection.) that drives you beyond the punch, with true story telling and opinion liberated from time constraints and translated from stage to page. He makes the journey as much fun as getting to the destination.
From his analysis of historical Western culture, in the form of professional Rodeo, that pits man against beast in a sport of extreme high action, which is second only to its inspired high fashion, to John’s complaining about homesickness, because he is home, MBS runs, or trips, the gauntlet.
At one point he chronicles the groundbreaking achievements of broadcasting’s “golden age”, but later reveals contrasting balance, recounting personal experiences in the trenches of his early radio career. There’s a reason that radio should be heard and not seen, and it’s ugly. No less ugly is John’s railing over the current state of Health Maintenance disorganization.
Health promotion is an unintended byproduct of contrasting his youthful smoking to that of his daughter.
The ever-changing landscape of legal and illegal American multiculturalism meets multi-level marketing. They mirror each other, in decreasing societal and personal standards, chasing greed the old fashioned way.
Geography and genealogy collide as John Jackshaw exposes the Klannish culture of East Texas, and how his regressive relatives are a pain in the red-neck.
Faith is the sometimes unsought answer to a simple escape from the real world, as we are shown how the inner workings of church camp will make you pray.
Indeed, laughter does strike again and again and again, in the same place; John Jackshaw’s “My Blind Spot.
