Title: What a funny guy!
Product review: I needed few good laughs, and I got plenty from this book. As a "foreigner" living in the United States I thought Bryson hit the nail on the head as far as living in this country goes. I'm surprised more Americans aren't bad-mouthing this book! :-)I loved the newspaper column medium as well. I can excuse the journalistic formula, as all newspaper writing follows it, yes? Also it was in a form that I could put the book down for a few days and not lose my "place" in a story. Bryson's other books were hilarious, but I would tire of his humour after a few chapters. The jokes would then be lost on me. I took my time with this one and got as many laughs from the last few chapters as I did with the first.Would love some less America oriented books by Bryson in the future. I still prefer "Notes From a Small Island" and "Neither Here Nor There" over all of his books.
