Descriere Dave Barry Is Not Making This Up - Dave Barry

Bestselling author and Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Dave Barry has been known to exaggerate in the line of duty. But when it comes to subjects in this latest collection of his classic columns, Barry's telling nothing but the truth. From toilet-dwelling snakes to combustible Pop Tarts, Dave presents just the facts. \nNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - You can't make this stuff up. Dave Barry wouldn't lie--and here are the real life, laugh-out-loud stories from across America to prove it. \nGet up-close with Dave as he examines UFO thrillseekers and Elvis-worshippers, plays lead guitar with a horrifying rock band that includes Stephen King, and swears to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth in stories like these: \n \n- a U.S. Supreme Court justice shares his remedy for preventing gas (I had not realized that this was a matter of concern in the highest levels of government) \n \n- a newspaper headline in Ohio announces the combustibility of strawberry Pop-Tarts (A story that can really help you gain a better understanding of how you can be killed by breakfast snack food) \n \n- a frightening fact that snakes have mastered the pipelines leading directly to your toilet--and they're not shy (Many women might view this as a fair punishment for all the billions of times that guys have left the seat up). \n \nBarry is at his best. \n--The Baltimore Sun \n \nHe zaps the funny bone. \n--The Cincinnati Post\n
