Advantages: Hilarious, candid, intelligently written, tons of anecdotes. Disadvantages: An air of desperation; an overly harsh dose of realism for wannabes.
for himself while watching his friend Bono become one of the biggest stars of the past quarter century. This wasn't an easy road for McCormick - he's struggled with his own jealousy as his career stalled and U2's endlessly ascended. All of this, and much more, is spelled out in 'I Was Bono's Doppelganger', which was published as 'Killing Bono' in the US.
The book isn't a biography of Bono: it's McCormick's own memoir. Bono, and the other members of U2, are major characters, but the story is entirely McCormick's, starting from his earliest childhood fixations on celebrity and ending up with him once again being faced with the possibility of "making it."
McCormick, now a columnist for the Daily Telegraph, originally saw himself becoming a famous actor. Those dreams were quickly dashed when, at a high school talent contest, his dramatic ...

On top of that the small town is losing money, with people being made redundant, they are heading for the cities. But their luck changes and their town gets picked for Gold Cup hydroplane boat race.

Schwartz
The Schwartz brand was established in 1889 by William Schwartz, the son of a German immigrant, in Halifax, Canada. The Schwartz Brand is bought by McCormick and Company, Incorporated, the world's largest producer of herbs, spices, seasonings and flavourings. Following rationalisation within the UK the McCormick branding was phased out and replaced by Schwartz.
If I haven?t got much time to spend in the kitchen before friends arrive I often resort to recipe packs I always keep at home. I usually have a selection covering anything from chicken, sausages, potatoes and mince.
Schwartz are a company I have always favoured over Colemans as I find their recipe more palatable. Coleman?s sauce mixes are always a little watery and runny compared to Schwartz. But the disadvantage is that they cost a little more and not all packs ...
