Dead On

If you are a a fan of Bill Hicks, then this is probably the best piece of postmortem merchandise out there. Somehow, it just feels right, and though a few of the rants are not the greatest, most of them are dead on and perfect. I can't think of any reason not to own this.

WWBHS is intended as a launching pad

To hear a verbal take on this project...please listen to "Voices" in mutant media at Frequency23 at DotOrg. Bill wanted his ideas to be evolved. If you are reading this I imagine you have listened to several hours of Bill Hicks material, perhaps 100s of hours. Now, what are you doing with these ideas? If you're sharing what Bill Hicks would say I hold you are helping to solve Potable Water for all humanity. If you buy this book you are helping wild critters in the Austin area. Thank you for your support. This isn't much of a review...but I'm a biased reviewer. I'm a recovering advertising executive. Let me ask you this...why have you read this far? And, whatever that answer is I'd like to ask that you take that energy and focus it on promoting Bill's ideas on Love. Thank you for your considerations. With gratitude to Kristin, Amelia, Joseph, Richard, Lynn, Mary & Steve for making this project possible...And everybody who contributed to this evolution. Ben Mack Intellish*t Marketing
