Customer Reviews

Classic satire

Joe Bob (the pen name of John Bloom) writes excellent, thoughtful satire. It's held up well over the years since the book was published. If you run across this title and you're looking for something wickedly laugh out loud funny, a little political and sometimes surprisingly tender or sad, well then... I say, "check it out."

FRIGHTENINGLY ENOUGH, I ACTUALLY LEARNED SOMETHING

Joe Bob isn't all that dumb... Wait, ok, maybe he IS kinda dumb - but he's endlessly entertaining, and not half bad as a writer..! This book is a hodge-podge of different stuff as seen through the eyes of Joe Bob -Robert Fulgrhum style - and each chapter is brief, interesting - and perfectly suited for the average bathroom visit, as I'm sure he intended. BUY IT, it's pretty nifty.
