What a pleasure to peek inside the mind of bright, sensitive, and very funny gentleman, while he attempts to cope with life on the road, dealing with the pressures of being a divorced dad, trying to make sense of a world seemingly gone mad, and being a liberal Jew in one of the reddest of states. Yikes!

Mr. Friedman writes with a voice that nearly everyone can enjoy and appreciate. A real winner.

This is one of the funniest books I've read. A while ago, I brought it with me to visit my friend in the hospital. I read it to her to cheer her up. Even for a couple of 34-year olds, we thoroughly enjoyed the children's version of Madonna's life so far.

If you love Gnomes and want a glimpse into the hidden life they have, this book is for you. See your favorite movies now staring gnomes! A fun look at how the other side passes it's time!

This is a book of short stories that takes a humorous look at aging. Author Karen O'Connor, a senior herself, shares the lighter side of maturing. I found myself laughing out loud! I am going to share this book at a senior's group where I minister in my town.

First of all, a warning. You really really need a smattering of Yiddish to understand the jokes in this book, and maybe a little more if you want to get all the in jokes and the names. Which are hilarious. All the yiddish words are italicized and some are explained in the next breath, so it isn't too bad. The stories parallel the traditional tales which adds to the fun. The puns and jokes and Jewish stereotypes are non-stop. Which brings me to the second warning, this book is NOT politically correct or totally clean. But boy is it funny. Short of the borsht belt you can't get this stuff anymore! I'm glad mine Yiddishe Mother and Father taught me enough to enjoy this book.

I find this book very funny, whitty and insightful. As a hacker I found many of the stories and examples to be right on. I would suggest this book to any one who has every picked up a club! I could not put it down...

I was a bit skeptical at first. The ecumenical content will definitely cause one to pause and think; that is, if you ever stop laughing. Kudos, saint franky.

The hero of this rolicking spoof of a golf manual is a cross between Arnold Palmer and all Three Stooges rolled into one. The jokes come at a very fast pace and just when you think Des Ormeaux can't possibly come up with another crazy event or over-the-top one liner, he hits another long drive. This would be a great movie staring Bill Murry.

Raunchy but delicious spoof of contemporary Sacred Cows. Certainly qualifies for a subtitle like "Extraordinary People doing extraordinary things to other Extraordinary People."
