May 12, 2009 - PRLog -- Floyd M. Orr has been entertaining readers with his commentaries on the state of modern American culture for more than two decades. His subjects range from the frivolous to the political to the sexual to the financial. Nostalgia and imagination permeate his writing in a primal ooze that is not easily forgotten. Who is Floyd M. Orr? He is absolutely unknown and unfamous, but you can think of him as a mixture of Bill Hicks, Bill Maher, Bill Engvall, George Carlin, Lewis Black, Denis Leary, Al Franken, Jon Stewart, Robin Williams, Dana Carvey, Charlie Rose, Peter Fonda, Forrest Gump, Frank Burns, and Charles Emerson Winchester III. But he's not as smart or talented as any of those guys.

Plastic Ozone Daydream: The Corvette Chronicles was last released in print format at the end of 2000. Illustrated with a decidedly tongue-in-cheek, nostalgic attitude, Daydream is a compilation of the author’s wildly imaginative stories about classic Corvettes.

Timeline of America: Sound Bytes from the Consumer Culture is a tightly encapsulated compendium of the multitude of events, inventions, celebrity news, and many other sound bytes that have captured our imaginations.

The Last Horizon: Feminine Sexuality & The Class System is a detailed study of the power of the herd instinct, sexual attractiveness, and celebrity worship in modern American culture. This book explains the development of the hidden classes in our so-called classless society. These seemingly benign concepts have dominated the psychosocial development of our culture since World War II. The Baby Boomer society brought changes to us that are so subtle that most of us go through our whole lives without any acknowledgment of them, yet they control us with infinite power. As the author has often stated, in modern America, The Class System is more powerful than everything but God. Don’t be put off by the title or the depth of the psychobabble necessary in the first chapter to open the reader’s mind to the possibilities. Horizon is anything but a dry psychological treatise. As one reviewer has said, “Once you read it, you can never unread it.” Whether you like it or not, you will remember the knowledge you gained from this book for the rest of your life!

Ker-Splash! Recreational Power Boaters Guide was intentionally released in 2002, soon after 9/11 and the crash of the DOW that quickly followed. At a time when the boating market was embroiled in an upheaval of mergers, buyouts, and bankruptcies, Ker-Splash offered detailed descriptions of the options offered to the consumer of both new and used products. The book is packed bow to stern with facts you won’t find in the dealer’s showroom or the manufacturer’s brochure.
