In over 30 scathingly funny pieces, a diverse array of authors shows just how quickly a pleasant vacation can turn into an embarrassing anecdote. In Vietnam, John Wood invents increasingly elaborate fictions to explain his ex-wife's "accidental death" in order to avoid humiliating himself by admitting he's divorced. Australian traveler Jayce White awakens in Zimbabwe to a baboon at his breakfast table helping himself to leftovers with primal flair. Collected in Not So Funny When it Happened, these stories and more show that when traveling, even the best of plans fall by the wayside.</div>]]> 2735105 3.51 109 17 25126 3.82 1548 220 2000 4 0 false Wed Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Sun Dec 23 17:22:53 -0800 2007 Sun Dec 23 17:23:43 -0800 2007
