How I Paid for College………again
At Shaft’s recommendation - I finished How I Paid for College last night and agree with him that it was one of the funniest books I have read in a long time. I know that Chapter 23 was his favorite chapter (and it was laugh out loud) but my personal favorite hilarious sentence in the book was…………
“So I put on my Izod and my khakis and one of those embroidered cotton belts; in this outfit with my Hall and Oates haircut, I looked like a lesbian golfer.” Even writing this post - it is making me laugh.
My only issues were that there was a little too much nonsensical hi-jinks at the end and Frank Sinatra showing up at the end was way over the top.
Perfect summer beach book.

If you weren’t laughing out loud at the “red hot poker” comments he was making to himself in Chapter 23, then you must be hiding something. Glad you enjoyed it, though. Now why don’t you and Evelyn Wood go read War and Peace and Encyclopedia Britannica — I expect a full report on my desk in the morning.

It’s in my “to read” pile. Maybe it’ll make it on a beach trip.
