<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This hilarious illustrated memoir takes us on a trip back to the rollicking 1970s as the author recalls his adventures and misadventures during the heyday of sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll in the quaint college party town of Chico, California.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Who knew college could be this funny? In his quest to show what campus life was really like for the pioneering undergrads of Chico State University's Golden Age, our courageous author takes us on a trip to that crazy age between the 60s and 80s -- the rollicking 1970s. You remember those days, don't you? Not quite free love, lots of rock 'n' roll, drugs of the innocent and not-so-innocent kind and the absolute feeling that all was right with the world. This book captivates its readers with astute, amusing and downright hilarious moments in the day in the life of a Chico State Wildcat. Where else can you party with your profs, skinny-dip between class and coast through stop signs on your bike with only a nominal risk of winding up on somebody's windshield? Based on a compilation of past columns from several Northern California weeklies including a stint as ace cub reporter for his college newspaper, C L Smith invites us along on his migration from Southern California to the quaint college town of Chico, California. After college, he finally ditches his shorts, tee-shirts and flip-flops and assumes the identity of a bona fide bon vivant as the editor of the Santa Cruz Good Times. Later, C L Smith was the marketing wizard who introduced several iconic advertising campaigns of the 80s, 90s and early 2000s. And, if you think Smith's college years were funny, wait till you join him for a walk on the wild side of American business in the advertising and wireless worlds.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Delivers some great insights about life on a jolly campus, popular culture, big company careers and what not, with non stop clever humor. Short & crisp! Was a quick fun read. Looking forward to his second book." - </p><p><br></p><p>"A hilarious journey through the life of a true Californian. If only I could remember my college years as well as Mr. Smith. Absolutely worth a read for all those who remember the days of Sex, Drugs and Rock and Roll. We then take a unique ride through his corporate years...creative and good fun!"</p><br>
