This looks like a good read. I'm sure few here will disagree.

Here's a list of contributors to the book.

Despite the image of the War Criminal (Abraham Lincoln) in the upper left of the list of contributors page that does look like a real interesting read. 

I was surprised by a few of the contributors ("Bubba the Love Sponge"?, yes, I know of the radio personality but never heard the show...but then again I'm a Bible-clingy, gun-toting, cold-hearted, Southern, conservative.)

Thanks for suggesting it.

Bubba was great.  He had his radio show in Tampa back in the late 90s.  The last I heard, they had yanked him off the air for killing a pig on the air at an event.
