I love it

I saw this in my local Border's Bookstore; couldn't pick it up at the time due to lack of cash. But this IS a Public Wish List, so if you know me and decide you want to get me a present... welll... *Looking down modestly and tracing invisible designs on the tabletop with a well-manicured fingernail... * ;-* I also recommend the "Spill it, Sister" private journal and the "They Hated To spread gossip" address book. The "Make your own damn dinner" and "It's a caserole, silly!" refrigerator magnets are good, too. Enjoy!

Feel Good Book!

This has the best Comments! It's great for all you sassy women out there! It makes me feel better just looking through it. I gave it to all my girlfriends for christmas this year! It's got the amazing retro pics too. I love it!

Irreverant and hilarious!

For the independent female (who has a good sense of humor), you won't find a better gift! This book sits in my powder room and not only do I still pick it up and get a giggle now and then, but my guests always emerge from the loo with a smile, too!

It is so funny.

This book is a very humorous one just to leave laying around for a random, quick giggle.

Change your shoes, change your life!

Absolutely hilarious. I'm obsessed with Anne Taintor material and this book did not dissapoint. In fact I cut out a few and put them on my wall and even used one as a lining for a coffee thermos.Had she punished him enough? How could she be sure?
