Story
“Here’s Johnny!” Probably everyone in America knows the phrase, whether they watched every episode of The Tonight Show or none because they had to go to bed early on school nights. From 1962 to 1992, Johnny Carson and his Tonight Show dominated the American consciousness. Henry Bushkin was Carson’s best friend and lawyer during that period, and his book is a tautly rendered and remarkably nuanced portrait of Carson, revealing not only how he truly was, but why.

The sad truth: It takes me 8 back to back shots of 100 proof alcohol to get drunk, and my buzzing is the average persons alcohol poison. A 750 ml bottle a day (Fifth) and I didn't start drinking until I was 30 years old, I'm 42 now. How? Why? As I write this hiding in a 4X8 shed in the middle of the desert in New Mexico, I wonder myself. There is no lessons to be learned from this book, no preaching, no teaching. I'm drinking whiskey as I'm typing this. So to all my fellow Unapologetic Alcoholics, enjoy, and have a drink on me.

I can’t believe I gave my v-card to a hot billionaire old enough to be my dad. I was only going out to celebrate my friend’s birthday. Next thing I know, I’m sweaty and tangled up in the sheets - happily giving my v-card to this gorgeous grump of a man. To make matters worse, I had to sneak past his adorable little girl on my walk of shame the morning after. But he never asked for my number, so I thought for sure I would never see him again. Until the nausea started. Now I have nine months to figure this out. That is until he showed up at my doorstep with an offer I couldn’t refuse.

With these great representatives of comedy, Dan Leno need not fear comparison. In petticoats, and as a representative of various women of the lodging-house and slavey Class, he would have beaten Jimmy Rogers at his own game. When we see Dan Leno as a woman, and hear his delightful patter, it never strikes us that it is a man imitating a woman. 'It is a woman who stands before us, the veritable Mrs. Kelly, not a burlesque of the sex, but the actual thing. He catches every expression, every trick, every attitude, every in?

Examine contents. 'Quick Quirks, A Quick Book' is up your alley into zany qualifications. It marks distinction, such as between the game of Parcheesi and the one that we play in our minds, somehow not involved in losing two-thirds of the way in to the end. The verse here just does not read before read, zingers included. 'Quick Quirks, A Quick Book' by author Benjamin Anderson is very aptly named. It is a very quick book. I read it this morning. It is also ultimately quirky. Things are mentioned, subjects tackled as I have never before seen or read… I believe it is written for readers who ...
