  <default_description>&lt;I&gt;Bad Dogs Have More Fun&lt;/I&gt; is an unforgettable collection of more than seventy-five newspaper articles from &lt;I&gt;The Philadelphia Inquirer&lt;/I&gt; written by former columnist John Grogan. Combining humor, wit, poignancy, and affection, these columns provide insight into the intriguing and wonderful world we live in. Whether it be writing about animals (from dogs to elephants to geese!), powerful and moving comments about his own and other families, trenchant comments on life's foibles and farces, or his interviews and interactions with people who are memorable and unusual in their own right, John Grogan makes us laugh--he makes us cry--he makes us think.</default_description>

I picked up a copy of the audiobook of Marley and Me and listened to it while I was doing a 15 mile run.  I fell in love with Marley.

    <body><![CDATA[I enjoyed listening to this book.  I find the author to be a very good writer.  This is a collection of his newspaper columns so each is like a short story.  There's not as many about animals, as the title suggests, which at first disappointed me because I loved Marley and Me so much. John Grogan is...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/9133085">more...</a>]]></body>
