Rating: Summary: Complete Idiot Letters as reviewed by complete idiot Review: Even funnier than the original Idiot Letters; Mr. Rosa strikes fear into the hearts of Corporate America, and giggles in their mail rooms.
Rating: Summary: Inane and boring Review: Hoped it would be funnier! There have been many knock offs of Don Novello's (sp?) letter campaign book, and although this had a few funny ones, it wasn't as political as Novello's or downright sidesplitting as Fred Grimes' "Dear Ernest and Julio." Seems he had a few good letter ideas, and then had to fill in the rest of a very slim book. Also--the formula is very similar to Grimes. Good for a few--emphasize FEW--laughs.
Rating: Summary: The funniest book I have ever read in My 22 years. Review: I am a business major at Sam Houston State University. After taking a business writing class, a friend introduced me to this book. I have never laughed at any book in my life, until I ran across the first Idiot Letters, by Paul Rosa. My favorite is the one about the eagle in a gas station advertisement. You will cry laughing! Lonnie Lee Best
Rating: Summary: best book can ever be written by an earthling! Review: I borrowed Paul's Idiot Letters from my English teacher and it has been the coolest 'assignment' ever. But the best part is when I wrote to Paul myself and he's proven himself to be the real thing!!! He's the best, and even better..
Rating: Summary: Inane and boring Review: I feel almost compelled to write a review of this book. Why? Because I'm partly responsible for its publication! I reviewed Paul's first book here at Amazon.com, and he thanked me for writing the review. I emailed him back asking when another one of these books was coming out. He didn't have a publisher. Well, my dad's in the business, and my dad liked the first one, and it turns out he thought the second one was funny enough to publish. It is a great book, too: again, Paul is the master idiot letter writer! The letter to Ford Trucks and Toshiba Televisions are the best (including the letters in the first book!). Paul's request to be one of the Fruit of the Loom guys was also quite funny. And to all you other would-be authors out there: I'm not a referral service, this is the only book I've ever referred, and so please don't flood my email box!

Rating: Summary: This one is a keeper! Review: I read Paul Rosa's first book of idiot letters a few years ago and enjoyed it so much my friend and I got kicked out of the library. We then proceeded to write our own "idiot letters" and got quite a lot of loot - I cherish my "Citgo" T-shirt to this day. Rosa's 2nd book is just as funny - just make sure you don't laugh too loud in the library. - Zuzu - An "idiot Letters" fan.

Rating: Summary: Not too Schabby Review: I thought it was excellent. I laughed till I wet meself. My boyfriend reads it to me before bed. It is a must buy. By the way Lonnie from Texas email me when you get a chance!!!!
Rating: Summary: laugh while you wait Review: My plane was delayed, and most passengers were upset, including me. After all, we all had places to go and people to see. I sat on the floor, against the wall, and began reading Paul's book. My anger quickly faded into laughter, and then a happiness came over me. I found myself laughing out loud. I realized how much a little laughter can change my mood, and I felt sorry for everyone sitting there reading the bad news in the newspapers. I wanted to read Paul's book out loud, but instead I held the book up and proudly laughed so people could hear me, in the hopes that they would in turn read Paul's book one day, and realize that a little laughter is good for the soul! I was glad my plane was late, because I learned a valuable lesson that day! Thanks Paul!
