The Ultimate Book of Useless Information: A Few Thousand More Things You Might Need to Know ( But ProbablyDon't)

This book is great for those hard to buy for men on your list. I enjoyed thumbing through it before I wrapped it too. Inexpensive and fun.

You could live without this book. But, why would you want to? Why not possess more than 200 pages of useless information at your fingertips that are guaranteed to amaze, amuse and confuse your friends and family. Documentation of the highest quality here enables you to name the fear of haircuts, define a dilemma with a third alternative, ask yourself why you probably enjoy on a daily basis a tasty treat that contains the ingredient usually found in car wax, etc. Yes, clearly, this is a book that you cannot live without.

This is a delightful book of trivia and would make a great resource for anyone planning to be a quiz master. It made me laugh out loud but it is not without some mistakes. e.g. Scotland is not listed among European countries bordered by only one country. But I love it.

Some friends of mine showed this book to me, and although I haven't read through it all the way, I have found quite a few interesting facts - ranging from meaningful to funny and none of which I knew before. That is the interesting part and it keeps me reading on for more facts. The clean part is that I haven't found anything off-color, so it should be fine for families.
