A collection of short, humorous entries. I don't have the book anymore but still remember one entry. Rita said her husband watches football on TV and keeps the phone nearby because the team could call him at anytime as an emergency replacement.

Funny, maybe a bit outdated, some actual good advice though!!

Though it may raise eyebrows as a man reading this, it is worth checking out. Picking up after "Naked Beneath My Clothes," this list book is a showcase of her quick paced comedic mind. Reading it is more similar to watching her on stage act, as there's brief verbal darts. I slapped my knees many times, and found parts that appealed to the heart as well.
