Yeah, I forgot my usual rule to read most/all comments before commenting. (BTW, "Groucho and Me" is great, as I recall.)

How so? (I know his name, don't know his work or even his reputation, really.)

You can't print that!

Make that Dan Fagin (not Fagan) and Toms River (not Tom).

I'm a little surprised, just because a significant number of readers HATE the last book. (If you want some chuckles, check out the angry Amazon reviews.)
