If you are in need of comic relief, this book is just right for you! Some essays are shorter, some longer - but each one will make you chuckle at least once....maybe the whole way through! A great mix of topics too! You'll love it from start to finish! 4-5 stars!

Great Dave Barry book. Kind of slow developing. Captures many of his newspaper columns. You can read in separated sections with no problem. Every section is separate from the last. Go DAVE!!!

Asolutely hilarious! I couldn't stop laughing out loud the entire time I was reading and got a few strange looks in public. I will definitely be looking from more writing from Dave Barry!

This is a great book for those who just love how silly things can get sometimes. I always enjoyed Dave Barry's newspaper column, and this book is much the same. His alert readers send notice of oddball happenings or newspaper articles that are a bit odd - and off Dave goes! Good for kids 13 to 80 (I don't remember exactly, but there may be a bit off-color humor there)

Dave Barry writes entertaining humor, covering topics like UFOs, reader mail, travel, boating, personal adventures, family and music. The book has many columns based on real happenings and longer articles out of the Miami Herald.
