I agree with wholeheartedly. I also like the fact that you don't get to lengthly like a lot of other reviewers. I'm afraid my attention span starts to run out at about 1,000 words.
Another very good review

I would imagine this gets old after a while... (Reply to this comment)

...and I would also imagine that Letterman's timing and mannerisms help sell the comedy on the lists more than the actual material.

I found the same thing in Dennis Miller's Rants. The book was funny, but the material was much funnier delivered by Miller.

Good stuff on your first book review!

No need to be gentle...you did a great job!

Disappointed about the lack of zesty lo-cal recipes in the book, but the plans! Oh, that makes it all worthwhile! LOL!
