Interesting short stories. Can't believe some of the stupid stuff people did.

Delightful book... terribly funny. And so easy to read. It's broken up into several chapters (17 or 18) but each chapter contains several news articles that are all maybe half a page long. It's a great book to read, and it's very easy to pick it up, read a few pages, then put it down again to take care of other responsibilities.
