Great book. I'm halfway through and I love it! Very funny and witty. Highly recommend.

    have only read a few editorials / articles by him, never any of his books ...

    but, he and his video reports are the best thing about Bill Maher's show.

    I'll have to check it out. I really enjoy him on Real Time.

    I just finished reading this last week.

    I loved the story line about the religious nutters. That should have been a book all by itself.

    I don't really like him on Maher. Maybe it's the smirk, or the attitude, but i don't care for him much. he seems way out of his element. Like they just grabbed a guy out of the audience and brought him up on stage. I like some of his articles, and generally tend to agree with him though

    I haven't seen the new book, but I just finished "Smells like Dead Elephants", which was quite excellent.

    I should mention that if someone would like to read this book, you can private message me. I'm happy to hand it down to you. Otherwise, it will just gather dust on my shelf. :)
