Napalm & Silly Putty

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"?And he makes some startling observations, including: ·Most people with low self-esteem have earned it. ·Guys don't seem to be called "Lefty" anymore.
