Boogers Are My Beat - Dave Barry (CD)
Title: Title: Boogers Are My Beat: More Lies, but Some Actual Journalism! Author: Dave Barry Genre: Fiction, Humorous Format: CDs (Unabridged) Synopsis: The New York Times calls him "the funniest man in America," and his legions of fans agree, laughing and snorting as they put his books on bestseller lists nationwide. In Boogers Are My Beat, Dave gives us the real scoop on: • The scientific search for the world’s funniest joke (you can bet it includes the word "weasel") • RV camping in the Wal-Mart parking lot • Outwitting "smart" kitchen appliances and service contracts • Elections in Florida ("You can’t spell Florida without 'duh'") • The Olympics, where people from all over the world come together to accuse each other of cheating • The truth about the Dakotas, the Lone Ranger, and feng shui • The choice between death and taxes And much, much more - including some truths about journalism and serious thoughts about 9/11. Review: Library Journal (February 15, 2004) The New York Times has referred to Barry as the "funniest man in America," and he is funny, to be sure, but his humor is exhausting to the listener. He throws funny words and phrases into bloated sentences like Velcro, hoping that some of them stick. Whether he's reporting on the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics, Yorkshire terriers, or presidential primaries, he overstuffs every sentence with "humor"; after a while it just gets to be too much. Add Dick Hill's frenetic reading and you are left with a feeling of "enough already!" Only when Barry presents two somber pieces on September 11 does he mercifully stop with the barrage of whiz-bang zingers, but by that time many will have given up. Barry has a legion of fans who apparently have a different sense of humor than this reviewer, so most libraries will probably want to add this to their collection, budgets permitting.-Joseph L.
