Customer Reviews

Outrageous fun!!

Miller's cultural observations are hysterical! Nobody's safe from his barbs, nothing's off limits. His diatribes on public education & Hollywood are especially funny. (For more derisive commentary on schools & Tinsel Town, though, read "No One's Even Bleeding"). The thing I like best about Dennis is his willingness to goof on himself as well as others. The "Rant Zone" is full of honest & biting wit, two essential ingredients for laughter.

Every chapter an ace

The joy of Miller's humor is he plays the whole course hard. I mean, this guy putts with a driver. Every chapter is an ace, every line soars straight down the fairway.

Put Simply--I Laughed

What can I say? Dennis Miller makes me laugh. His rambling monologues filled with pretentiousness and profanity make me laugh. He has a sharp, critical eye (which he's not afraid to turn on himself) and I often, though not always, agree with what he has to say. You take comedy with a grain of salt, realizing that its easy to take shots and less easy to come up with real solutions to the world's problems.I sometimes hesitate to give a book like this a really high rating. Will this book change the world? No. Will it be read a year from now let alone 100 years from now? Probably not. And yet, this book made me laugh out loud more than anything I've read in recent months. It made me laugh more than I remember laughing at Miller's earlier rants. And now, in the aftermath of the tragedies lately, it's just what the doctor ordered. Enjoy it for what it is but enjoy it.

Funny, Yet True!

Dennis Miller is the man! I bought this book after seeing him on ESPN's Unscripted w/ Chris Connelly. Everything Dennis Miller rants about in this book is true when you stop and think and yet he keeps you interested by making sarcastic and funny remarks. I've only had this book for a couple days and I'm already half way through it. This book is a must have if you're a Dennis Miller fan!

Now I don't want to get off on a rant here....

but Dennis Miller has more common sense in his pinky finger than George W. and the entire pack of DMV-caliber public servants in the Congress. This book has it all. His rant on intolerance was probably the most astute rant he's ever done. His rants on Elvis, Child Stars, and sports are funny as always. This man should be President, Chief Justice, and Supreme Speaker of Common Sense all rolled into one.If you want a cranial clean-out session that makes an enema seem tame this will help clear your head of all the fog put out there in the media.
