A journey into one of the most fascinating minds alive today--guided by the owner himself. Bestselling author Daniel Tammet (Thinking in Numbers) is virtually unique among people who have severe autistic disorders in that he is capable of living a fully independent life and able to explain what is happening inside his head. He sees numbers as shapes, colors, and textures, and he can perform extraordinary calculations in his head. He can learn to speak new languages fluently, from scratch, in a week. In 2004, he memorized and recited more than 22,000 digits of pi, setting a record. He has savant syndrome, an extremely rare condition that gives him the most unimaginable mental powers, much like those portrayed by Dustin Hoffman in the film Rain Man. Fascinating and inspiring, Born on a Blue Day explores what it's like to be special and gives us an insight into what makes us all human--our minds.Binding Type: Paperback

The best golf shirt on Amazon.
Easily my favorite golf shirt to wear during practice or on the course. It's simple - no large logos, lightweight, comfortable, and has a great price point. Fitment is true to size. Get this for yourself or as a gift and you wont be disappointed!

High quality polo
Size: 3X-Large, Color: Dark Grey
Can’t beat this price and quality. With mainstream polos is going for about $80. This is a steal for the same quality. Fits good. Price is nice. Keeps me dry the golf course.

Nice Stylish Midweight Jacket
Color: Dark Grey, Size: Medium, Color: Dark Grey, Size: Medium
I ordered this jacket because I wanted something with a little my style to wear out to dressy casual occasions. This jacket fits the bill. It looks nice in that it's got a casual laid back feel but at the same time you could wear over a collared shirt and it would look good.
I am 5'10" and about 165 lbs. I normally wear somewhere between a medium and large depending on the brand. I ordered a medium and it fit well. The arms and body were both the right length, not too short like some other jackets.
The reason I took 1 star off was because this is advertised as a winter puffer jacket and I wouldn't really call it that. It is a mid weight jacket that can get you by in southern winters but anything really cold I wouldn't wear this. Plus it's not a "puffer" jacket. It just has a minimal quilted feel to it but most of it is just a polyester glossy sweatshirt feel.
