Timeline: A Month in the Life of a Guy Who Refuses to Have Money Taken Out of His Paycheck for United Way; A Guy Who Always Eats

Sorry, it's late, I'm tired and I'm not verbose anyway. I'm a huge fan of funny books and this made me laugh more often and harder than anything, ANYTHING, I've ever read. I only wish I could get my paws on a collection of his articles. My new favorite humorist hands down. Buy This Book!!!

I just hate to have Shine drop off the radar of contemporary humor. The humor in this book, the humor of Shine himself reminds me of Larry David - a dry, delicious and surgically precise exposure of contemporary idiocies. Never does he bludgeon - the finesse is what makes Shine Shine. The best of what Shine does could be the 'makings' of a New Yorker humorist on par with the classic work of Robert Benchley. I believe he is lost to us though - from what I can ascertain he writes less than mediocre columns for a Florida paper and probably doesn't know how good he is.
