John Noonan, Aspen Media Review
"A fast & funny ride down memory lane. . . . Walt Brasch's
inane insights into what held our fancies and titillated our tongues
will make you squirm and guffaw! . . . His enquiring mind makes
hilarious & bizarre connections, & while you may find yourself
nodding in wise agreement, you will also find yourself gagging: "You
don't say!". . .The essays are short, well written, with their full
quota of absurdity laced with acidic wit, as well as profoundly
embarrassing facts. There's something to fit just about every person's
tastes. You want to remember it all, the horrible as well as the crass;
you want to take a taste of everything so you can mutter: "Were we
really like that for eight whole years?"You can gorge yourself by
reading straight through or nibble here & there. Either way, you
will have consumed thousands of cerebral calories, added inches to your
ego, and had some resounding belly laughs."Rebecca Brown, Rebecca's
Reads.
