Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
'Smoking kills. If you're killed, you've lost a very important part of your life.'
--Brooke Shields, during an interview to become a spokesperson for a federal anti-smoking campaign
'Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country.'
--Mayor Marion Barry, Washington, D.C.
'Hawaii has always been a very pivotal role in the Pacific. It is in the Pacific. It is a part of the United States that is an island that is right here.'
--former Vice-President Dan Quayle
'The word 'genius' isn't applicable in football. A genius is a guy like Norman Einstein.'
--Joe Theisman, former NFL football quarterback and sports analyst
In celebration of mental lapses and pure idiocy, here is a collection of stupid utterances, unintentional and otherwise, from the worlds of politics, radio, television, newspapers, show business, sports, and literature-and everywhere else people can, and have, put their feet in their mouths.

Very funny anecdotes and sayings! A great gift for anyone (although geared more for an adult than a child). I gave it to a friend who is hard to shop for and he could hardly set it down. Great buy!

I had bought this book for my husband for Christmas, but when I was undergoing chemo and really needed a pick-me-up, this book did the trick. Our entire family - kids and adults - just laughed and laughed with all the wonderful gems in the book. A great gift for someone who needs a good laugh for their well-being.

I bought this for my precocious 12 year old for Christmas, but over the following week, everyone in the family picked up this book and read it. Easy, light reading; intended to be humorous, but not sarcastic. It is organized by category. Lots of quips. A few gems. It would be a great book for pre-teens; teens and adults, although teens and pre-teens will not know all of the people quoted. It would also be good for physician waiting rooms, or guest bathroom reading material.

That rare and wonderful thing---a book the whole family can read together, read to each other, and laugh for days. It's become my favorite gift for everyone.
