Book Description:
With nearly 20 albums, two Grammys, two Cable ACE awards, and more HBO specials sunder his belt than anyone else, George Carlin is more popular than ever. Now, for the first time, Carlin has prduced a book of original humor pieces, Brain Droppings. Filled with thoughts, musings, questions, lists, beliefs, curiousities, monologues, assertions, assumptions, and other verbal ordeals, Brian Droppings is infectiously funny. Also included are two timeless bonus items from the past, "A Place for Your Stuff" and "Baseball-Football."

Readers will get an inside look into Carlin's mind, and they won't be disappointed by what they find:

* I buy stamps by mail. It works OK until I run out of stamps.
* What year did Jesus Christ think it was?
* A tree: first you chop it down, then you chop it up.
* Have you ever noticed the lawyer is always smiling more than the client?
* I put a dollar in one of those change machines. Nothing changed.
* If you ever have chicken at lunch and chicken at dinner, do you ever wonder if the two chickens knew each other?

Interesting'ly Strange book. Lots of cursing in it, so if you sensitive to cursing, you probably won't want this book. I myself wouldn't of gotten it had I known. It'd be a great book if they didn't curse so much in it. That's just a big turn off to me.

Very funny. I read it twice. Sometimes I find him a little too unabashedly adolescent, but then he'll go and write something profound to make up for it. Very smart, dirty, comedy.

George Carlin's sometimes cutting exploration of the idiocies he finds in our culture. ALways funny, often penetrating, and always a unique viewpoint that makes the reader think. A hell of a lot of fun.

Hilarious rantings from George Carlin. Not for the easily offended.

Very funny and quite typical of George's style. He's not the least bit shy and tells it just as it "is"!! It's worth your time to read, if you have a "George Carlin" sense of humor. I loved it.

"The thinking person's comic who uses words as weapons, George Carlin shares all new, cutting edge opinion and observational humor..." back cover
