Summary: A Ph.D in "COSBYOLOGY".
Comment: Ingrown hairs? Noisy boats? Routine Physicals? How do you get enough funny material out of these subjects? Just ask Bill Cosby. With this collection of short subjects, he pulls the most amusing moments and displays for all to read, and I will be the first to admit it, some of that stuff made me laugh out loud, especially when dealing with the subject of his wife and what makes their marriage work. Another subject worth a good chuckle is when he talks about his stint in the navy. His observations and responses to life in the armed forces was a real trip. Never having seen him in concert, I have a feeling that this book represents his stage act, and that alone is worth it's weight.
Rating: 4
Summary: Uneven funny
Comment: If you like funny little stories you'll like this book. If you like Cosby's standup routines in a short version, you'll like this. Otherwise you may or may not like this book. This is basically a few of his short routines or anecdotes put together in a book. There's no real theme that ties all of them together nor or all of them on the same level of funny. Some will appeal more than others. I give it a C on the StuPage.

Summary: Disappointing
Comment: Bill Cosby is a very funny guy. His spoken delivery has left me in stiches countless times, but unfortunately his humor didn't carry over into print very well in this case. The writing is flat and awkward, and the chapters seem to wander without purpose. George Booth's drawings, however, are delightful as always.
