This collection of dirty jokes, short fiction, and autobiographical tidbits will
please some readers and offend others. Carey, a stand-up comic and star of his own TV show,
writes mostly about sex, drinking, gambling, football, and television. One of his favorite
topics seems to be his "big ~censored~" jokes. Four-letter words predominate, giving the book
a definite adolescent, male tone. Carey points out that the raunchier his material, the more

includes a sampling of the negative reviews and letters he has received. The short stories are
the most interesting. Carey reads with the familiarity and conviction of one reading his own work..
