Sick of the mindless pablum of "inspiration" offered by page-a-day devotionals? Tired of the relentless celebration of positive thinking? Perhaps it's time for something with a bit more bite to it. Daily Scoldings are daily doses of bitter truth that will wake anyone out of their narcissism, delusions of grandeur, and indulgent happy thoughts. Think of it as a mental dousing of cold water, first thing in the morning. It's the perfect gift for the crank, cynic, or curmudgeon in one's life.
