What do you get when a particularly offbeat comedian puts his inner thoughts to
paper? Why, you get Michael Ian Black’s MY CUSTOM VAN: AND 50 OTHER
MIND-BLOWING ESSAYS THAT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND ALL OVER YOUR FACE. WARNING: Do NOT – I repeat – do not try to read this books while eating. Seriously. I made that mistake and it nearly cost me my life. If you must read it while eating, alert a buddy who knows the Heimlich maneuver beforehand. CONFESSION: I am twisted and wrong. I readily admit it. I must be, because Mr. Black’s new book fits that description to a ‘t’ and I hungrily ate up every minute of it! If you have seen Michael Ian Black’s various television appearances, you have a good idea already of what to expect, given his very left-of-right sense of humor and deadpan delivery. If that is what you are expecting, you won’t be disappointed with MY CUSTOM VAN: AND 50 OTHER MIND-BLOWING ESSAYS THAT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND ALL OVER YOUR FACE. Nay, you will be delighted, much as I myself was, to find that same wit infused in every page, only without the need to be mindful of TV censors. Mr. Black’s book is a collection of ‘essays’ on myriad topics comprising each chapter. I have to say there wasn’t a bad essay in the bunch, but my very favorite chapters include: - ‘What I Would Be Thinking if I Were Billy Joel Driving to a Holiday Party Where I Knew There Was Going to Be a Piano’ - ‘One Day, I’m Going to Open a Scented Candle Shoppe’ - ‘Taco Party’ - ‘Vampires – Good for the Economy?’ - ‘My Custom Van’ - ‘Why I Used a Day-Glo Magic Marker to Color My Dick Yellow’ - ‘How to Approach the Sensitive Question: Anal?’ - ‘A Series of Letters to a Squirrel’
