Communication Corner ~ FIMMology 101: The Study of the Humorous Sins of Our Mouths!

12:38 AM, Feb. 19, 2009
There's a new eBook in town and it's so much fun!  This is not like any communication study you have EVER seen before!



FIMMology 101: The FIMMportant, FIMMtastic and FUNbelievable Study of the Humorous Sins of Our Mouths!


FIMMology (fim-ol'-o-gy) noun: 1. the study of Foot in Mouth Disease; 2. the study of the art of the humorous sins of the mouth.


Thirty nine pages and over 30 lessons packed with hilariously, creative Foot in Mouth Man episodes teaching various communication skills!  This is NOT your traditional communication study!

  • Available immediately as a download
  • Over 30 fun-filled, creative lessons
  • Adorably illustrated
  • Links to even more FIMM Fun
  • PERFECT for shy communicators!
  • FUN lessons you can share with children of various ages
  • Can be used as a homeschool study by teaching one lesson per week and using discussion to explore its implications!
  • Perfect for adults who need a giggle break!
  • Makes a great gift too!


Foot in Mouth Man or FIMM, as he is known, began on my blog in 2006. The idea was to create a loveable yet bumbling character that sailed through his life oblivious to the trouble he caused by his complete lack of effective communication skills. His misadventures serve to educate through humor. FIMM stumbles and bumbles his way through life sticking his foot in his mouth so often he has Athlete’s Tongue! FIMM’s misadventures allow young and old alike the opportunity for insight. 

FIMMology 101 is an eBook, containing the best of Foot in Mouth Man: the most memorable, creative and fun of his weekly misadventures all in one place. It is my prayer that you and your family find “himm” entertaining and fun, but that you also take to heart the communication lessons inside of each episode as you hone your skills for the things the Lord has for you to share!

Be the first one on your block to get a copy and laugh all the way to better communication skills!  To read more about this unique eBook, click here!
