Dave Barry Is from Mars and Venus

Rating:
Summary: This book is hilarious of course because Dave Barry wrote it
Review: This book had me laughing out loud. I especially liked the bit on consumer packaging. If you've never read any of Dave Barry's works, this is a good place to start.

Summary: Laugh out loud funny!
Review: This book made me laugh outloud. I highly recommend it.
This book, along with Bruce Cameron's "8 Rules for Dating my Teenage Daughter" and Debbie Farmer's "Don't Put Lipstick on the Cat!" will make a perfect gift for anyone.

Summary: Hilarious, but not QUITE his best
Review: This is the 2nd funniest book I have ever read, next to Dave Barry Talks Back. For whatever reason, I felt that Dave occasionally forced too many jokes in the early stages, such as the Synchronied Drowning skit (which is still funny). As a result, I didn't laugh as hard or as constantly as I did with his other stuff. BUT (a gigantic BUT), it is still INSANELY FUNNY. Whereas I was able to read 3 or 4 paragraphs before breaking into hysteria with DBTB, this one takes me about 7 or 8 pages before the inevitable happens. The topics this time around range from opera, golf, snowboarding, boring people and animal humour, but nothing leaves a lasting impression as the LEMON HARANGUE, DEATH BY TOOTHPICK or (THIS COLUMN IS FUNNY), although INTRODUCTION, BORRRRRRINGGG and WHEEL OF MISFORTUNE sure come close. In all, the 2nd best place I know for incessant belly laughs, and a book that nearly 99.5% of its readers will love. But I happen to think that 99.8% will love Dave Barry Talks Back. Even if it wins the silver medal, I still think this book is an acceptable alternative to having a social life.

Summary: Stop, Dave...you're killing me!
Review: This is the guaranteed best work of Dave Barry's recycled columns you'll ever read! The best way to read this book is to 1.Place two Pop-Tarts in your toaster set to "maximum." 2.Begin reading this book. When the flames from your toaster reach @ six feet in height, remove flaming Pop-tarts and taste that crispy goodness while turning the pages of this great read. (NOTE:extinguish flames before ingestion.) This is the only way to read Dave's works, and I'm sure he'll agree with me on this.
