I'm not sure I'd recommend him for a prostate exam, but if you're afflicted with a twisted funny bone, you might want to spend some time in the (hardly antiseptic) trailer park offices of Dr Spincter. Love troubles? May I recommend the lovely psychologist, Dr Ima Slutskaya? While recovering, you may choose to peruse the cautionary Internet dating tale of Marcus and Mariana. If you are the very sensitive type, their plight may induce you to drop a tear or two. Don't skip the copious footnotes to Fenichel's "A Short History of Dance." (I'll bet you aren't aware that there are many references to dance in the Bible--the Baptists, at least, certainly seem to have overlooked them.)

Mrs Grundy may want to pass on this one (or perhaps she'll quietly "tsk-tsk" her way through it in the privacy of her own home); but if your skin is thick, and your humor ranges from Woody Allen to the Three Stooges via Andrew Dice Clay, this book was written for you. You'll titter and giggle your way through it, and you might even find yourself chortling and guffawing as well.
