Amazingly Humorous
Very funny! Hilarious pictures, funny context. Whoever this man is, he is one hilarious, nuttyguy! This is a funny view of the Y2K problem, that everyone who panicks about it should definitely get. Bill Gates, watch out for Brad H. Olsen-Ecker! He can surely make anything funny, especially referring to Lady of the Water. Great Book!

I laughed so hard I thought I had an Overactive Bladder!!!
That Olsen-Ecker guy is a real crazy kook. The book really puts this whole Y2K thing in a perspective we can all laugh about and silence the hysteria.Olsen-Ecker is one of the great creative minds of the 20th century. It isnot just a book but a survival manual for the next millenium. Save thosecheese doodles, take the stairs, and cancel that flight to Hawaii.The Y2Khysteria is upon us people! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!!!

Must Have
In addition to be being hilarious, this book actually contains useful information. Up to now, I've known James Gaskins for his excellent technical books. Now I see that he has a great sense of humor as well. I have hundreds of technical books, but books that mix humor and fact as good as this are hard to find.

Too Funny For Words!

Oh come on...
This book is flat out funny... BUT NOT FOR CHILDREN.IT'S R RATED.NO, NC-17.KEEP OUT.N0 KIDS ALLOWED. ADULTS ONLY. There. As if anyone responsible would let their kid read internet humor unsupervised.Sheesh.

Jokes for the Discriminating Cyberlaffer
The practice of forwarding jokes to friends via email is so prevalent these days, that most folks can spot a repeat within a half-dozen words. Only a small number of those repeats are worth a second or third read. This book is excellent because Patty and Steve have a discriminating eye for spotting the best --- the ones promising to elicit the biggest smiles, chuckles or guffaws. I recognized many jokes in the book from emails, an in almost all cases, they confirmed my impression that they were worth a second or third read.

Best Laughs Of 2001
I just got this book and will be sending one to my son for Christmas.I know he will laugh as much as I did!Laughter is the best medicine and all of us need a bit of this medicine everyday.This book is a treasure trove of laughing matter. I hope Steve and Patty collect enough new jokes to publish another.They certainly did a good job on this one.It's gets 5 stars in my book! ... Read more

The Book Cover Says It All
The cover of this book alone cracks me up as does much of the content inside."Goats" is a non-syndicated web comic strip done by Jonathan Rosenberg.This strip came to my attention when Jonathan first started it and asked me to throw him a link (my site being all about comic strips)."Goats" is a surreal strip about two male best friends Jon and Philip, their talking pet goat Toothgnip, and their evil talking pet chicken Diablo.There are also aliens, beer, women, beer, dwarves, beer, zombies, beer, and more beer. Talking Animals for grown-ups!
Fantastic. Magnificent. Compelling, original and satyrical, a must have for any Gen-Xer's Ikea mail-ordered coffee table or the floor of the bohemian studio apartment in the parent's basement. Bringing together issues of single-life, animal rights, alien invasions, sexual dysfunction, and sado-masochism this hilarious book filled with wit and slapstick compiles the Goats comic strip for the year 2000. Not only are the comics a poignant commentary on everyday-life, through trips into the surreal they speak volumes on social issues of the day. Through the innocence of some characters and the wickedness of others, the entire gamut of human emotion is displayed among the denziens of a specific New York pub. This book makes a fantastic gift for those who've never heard of Goats and enjoy quality, edgy humor.

The great American cartoon strip lives!
Jon Rosenberg's Goats can't fail to raise a smile from these jaded lips when I read it online, so a book with hundreds of those self-same strips is just the thing to see you through the long ,dark winter. Pert, pertinent character comedy, surrealism and pure sexy fun make this a must-have.If you liked Bloom County, this is for you.If you like Fred Bassett, it might just take the top of your head off. Superb. ... Read more

Geek Redemption
I found this book very amusing and entertaining.It was easy reading and the perfect vacation book.After reading the book, I have come to believe that there is a "little bit of geek" in all of us.

Pass on this.
Just what one would expect from Dupa.A dull and uninteresting tale by an obvious introvert.

A Space Engineer's reaction.
This book was quite enjoyable. Many of the anecdotes, characterizations and illustrations seem eerily familiar to this reader, who has worked in the space program for some 26 years.As C. S. Lewis said (about a somewhat different book): "Here are beauties which pierce like swords or burnlike cold iron". ... Read more

Stupendous Quality
All the paper models are expertly designed. They go together perfectly, even if you aren't big on following directions. Pieces are printed on both sides so you can't make a mistake. Tabs fit perfectly into slots, scorelines make folding a breeze and the finished buildings look pretty cool.Rest assured, there's no running water and it's a bit hard to get fireinsurance on paper houses. You'll still be living better than your mouse. Afun gift and the houses come out looking quite swank!

Everything a mouse could wish for
Very clever idea.Excellent graphics and easy-to-follow directions.Makes a great gift for that special computer person. And, for all the Dave Barry fans, this is just not a "guy thing."It's a definite buy ... Read more
