Who doesn't tire of all of the self-help books and programs, especially here in California?
Read this irreverent little number for a nice respite from all of that crap! These are "affirmations for cynics" and will keep you turning page after page after cynical page!

Funny as!!! "Today I will equate material possessions with love." - whenever I need a good laugh I peruse this book!
Oh my. Make sure to read this near a bathroom as you will laugh so hard that it will make you need to pee. Kleenex is also helpful for the tears running down your face!!

Cracks me up! A good little laugh of a book!
Good for laughs
It's possible that this book was written with me in mind. On every page I was either doubled over in laughter or thinking 'Oh, crap. That's what it's like to hang out with me'. After reading this I'm not sure why I have friends. Highly recommended!!
This book had tremendous promise, but out of 365 entries only 20 or so were really very funny. Most of them fell in the first few pages, so I think the authors knew it.
hilarious!
