Another gem from the Sterns. I love them so much. Everything they produce makes me happy.

[Victoria · Rating 3 out of 5]

Interesting read condisdering this was written in 1992 and most of it is now way outdated. The items that are in here range from the obvious, to the obscure. The items on people like Walter Hudson, Zamfir, Slim Whitman, Valley Girls are fun and interesting reads.

I love these two. Funny without being offensive. Just read the section on the world's fattest man, Walter Hudson, and you'll see what I mean.

Wouldn't mind if they came out with an update, but I think they may have decided to concentrate on food?
