Let me get this out of the way in the beginning: I don't know Tony Arcabascio (one of the guys from Alife) or what his deal is, but the guy comes off like the biggest badass in history with the "how to" guides he wrote for Arkitip magazine. The book is a collection of all those articles, boasting titles like "Make A Slim Jim" (the kind you break into cars with), "Avoid Assault Charges," "Torch A Car," "Turn A Man Into A Boy," "Make The Girls Love You," "Turn $1 Into $20," etc. This is grand entertainment and kinda inspirational. True or not. It's well written, and I have to admit that I'm really pumped up to get out there after reading a couple of these. 64 pages, 13 articles, comes in a neat heavy matte slipcase.

Downtown Manhattan impresario, Tony Arcabascio, and California based
publisher, Arkitip, have finally compiled and bound into one book:
Now You Know
Now You Know is 3 years worth of columns/short stories written by Tony
exclusively for Arkitip, between 2003 and 2006. A ‘how to’ for the street
smart. It’s just a couple of things the people who ‘know,’ may not know
(if you know what I mean).
