 Laugh-out-loud funny February 26, 2008
"Question: Dear Mr. Language Person--What is George Bush's native tongue? Answer: He doesn't have one."
From "Ask Mr. Language Person" to the "Exploding Animal Institute" to Dave's classic announcement of his candidacy for the Presidency of the United States--his platform consists of a dramatic reorganization of the bureaucracy so that domestic affairs will all be handled by the Department of Louise, and foreign affairs by the Department of a Couple of Guys Named Victor ("Y'know, Victors, I wouldn't mind hearing that Fidel Castro had had an unfortunate accident...")--this collection of Dave Barry's weekly humor columns from the early 1990s still has the power to induce chortles, guffaws, and even the occasional cackle.
The audiobook version is well-delivered by Johnny Heller. Just don't listen to it in public unless you don't mind people seeing you grinning idiotically or hearing you laughing like a ninny.
 Love it! February 8, 2008
In one word: FUNNY! I've got all Dave Barry's books and love them all.
They make me laugh out loud. They all get five stars from me.
Good, but not genius March 29, 2007
This is a collecton of his regular columns. They are funny, but not side-splitting. If you want to see what Dave can *really* do, try "Dave Barry's Only Travel Guide you will Ever Need".
Classic Dave Barry January 28, 2007

Hilarious! Some references are a little dated now, but still tons of laugh-out-loud moments - I loved it! If you're a Dave Barry fan, don't miss this one.
A very funny weasel book May 14, 2004
8 out of 9 found this review helpful
"Weasel is a funny word. You can improve the humor value of almost any situation by injecting a weasel into it."This book by Dave Weasel... er... Barry is an extremely funny read. It's a collection of his newspaper columns that will have you laughing over and over again, and annoying your family members with your constant quotations. He covers almost every topic here, from exploding animals to traffic cops to reader suggestions to doctors to drug dealers to television. It's all here. This may not be his best book, but it's really funny and a must-have for any Dave Barry weasel. Er... fan.
