Review: the thing that is missing out of this book is

Summary: Absolutely Intelligent Humor
Review: The funniest book yet I've read in 1997.
The humor certainly is quite "tongue and cheek" at times and the book is written in a way that seem Carlin is entertaining right in your own home !
A must read!

Summary: Classic Carlin
Review: George shows us that he's still got it in his latest book. Still funny after all these years. Not a book for the easily offended, nor for hospital reading, especially if you have stitches! I found this out the hard way. Great quick reads

Summary: You Must Buy This Book!
Review: Carlin cranks out some of his best material in this book. The pages contain sharp,unrepenting humor as well as hard,swift logic. Carlin gives a honest viewpoint on how and why this country is going down the toilet while and the same time laughing at it,too. I am a BIG George Carlin fan and I love this book. You must buy it. It's great,great reading

Summary: what happened?
Review: I used to love George Carlin, but this book?! What a disappointment. I could forgive the mostly weak humor if it weren't backed with such bitterness and bile! It reads more like the rantings of a sour Ebenezer Scrooge, than the insightful observations of a keen satirist. My advice? Buy one of Carlin's old albums instead. Now those are funny!

Summary: George Carlin - The Master of Comedy
Review: Let me just say that this book came at a great time when I needed something to read late at night and make me laugh out loud until I woke the annoying neighbors up next door. George, you are the master of comedy and I admire you and your brilliant writting. You are a pleasure to read, and hear! Truly one of the funniest and most inspiring comics today. What is so amazing about this book is that it is not only funny, many of Georges ideas....make sense! Believe it or not....I found myself agreeing with him many times. Thank you for the laughs George. For you I have nothing but praise!!!

Summary: Cold, Bitter and Not Funny
Review: Carlin's humor does not transfer well to text. He comes across bitter, hateful and humorless. His take on the English language is often amusing and some of his lists are funny, but the humor and "insights" were minimal. This book disappointed me greatly.

Summary: Carlin is Da man
Review: George Carlin has been entertaining us for years with concerts, albums, and plenty of HBO specials. And finally, he got his ideas on paper. George Carlin's "Brain Droppings" has to be the funniest and most entertaining book I've read in a long time. In it, Carlin bashes the english language and our over-used expressions. He also talks about his basic problems with human nature and it is just laugh out funny. He does use a lot of foul language in the book and some of his ideas may offend certain readers. But not this reader. I can't wait until George Carlin writes a sequel to this book.

Summary: If I could have lunch with ANYONE....
Review: It would be George Carlin. I could just sit back and listen to him go on forever.
Only drawback to this book was that every so often there was these pages where random thoughts were stuck in...didnt dig those to much...but hey, its George.
