This one's for you, extraordinary ordinary women everywhere It's
time for seriously hilarious girl-talk with "New York Times"
bestselling author Lisa Scottoline. She's shared this collection of
scenes from her real life, and she bets her life sounds a lot like
yours . . . if you crave carbs, can't find jeans that fit, and
still believe that these two things are unrelated. Pick up this
book--you'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll swear off pantyhose.
Here are some examples of Lisa's wit and wisdom:
"Everybody has their pornography, and mine is the real estate
ads."
"We'll get universal health care before we get beauty salons
open on Mondays, and that's backwards. Ask any woman if she'd
rather have a haircut or a mammogram, and you'll see what I
mean."
"Mothers are a natural force, and maybe an alternative source of
fuel."
"Lately there's been talk about a religion that allows polygamy,
so that a man can have as many wives as he pleases. Where is the
religion that allows a woman to have as many husbands as she
pleases?"
"I have never been in an accident, if you don't count my two
marriages."
"My mother taught us that if you eat baked beans from a can that
has dents, you'll die of botulism. This was before people injected
botulism into their faces. Nowadays, the dented can will kill you,
but you'll look young."
Inspired by her wildly popular column in "The Philadelphia
Inquirer" entitled "Chick Wit," "Why My Third Husband Will Be a
Dog" is a book you'll have to put down--just to stop laughing.
