Sobre este e-book
A hilarious new collection of razor-sharp observations from the New York Times bestselling author of Brain Droppings. Few comics make the transition from stage to page as smoothly or successfully as George Carlin. Brain Droppings spent a total of 40 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list, and this new one is certain to tickle even more ribs (and rattle a few more cages) with its characteristically ironic take on life's annoying universal truths. In Napalm & Silly Putty, Carlin doesn't steer clear of the tough issues, preferring instead to look life boldly in the eye to pose the questions few dare to ask:
- How can it be a spy satellite if they announce on TV that it's a spy satellite?
- Why do they bother saying "raw sewage"? Do some people cook that stuff?
- In the expression "topsy-turvy," what exactly is meant by "turvy"?
- Most people with low self-esteem have earned it.
- Guys don't seem to be called "Lefty" anymore.
- Most people don't know what they're doing, and a lot of them are really good at it.
- KIDS--They're not all cute. In fact, if you look at them closely, some of them are rather unpleasant looking. And a lot of them don't smell too good either.
- DEATH ROW--If you're condemned to die they have to give you one last meal of your own request. What is that all about? A group of people plan to kill you, so they want you to eat something you like?
