Seriously funny, Nov 23 2011

This is one funny lady. From her grade 3 prima donna days, to her stint in jail and beyond, Chelsea knows how to entertain. She's a comedian and doesn't seem to have many (if any) sacred cows, so if you have some issues that haven't been resolved yet, you might want to give this a miss. For the rest of us though, treat yourself to several hours of fun and give this audio-book a listen.

Last listened to;

Artie Lange: Too Fat To Fish, (honest, amusing)

Sarah Silverman: The Bedwetter... (lots of fun)

Tina Fey: Bossypants , (classy and funny)

A great introduction to postmodernist thought., Feb 10 2011

Over the past few months I've been devouring books and lectures on modern philosophical thought and this book has by far been the broadest and most accessible for a neophyte such as myself. I first listened to the audio version of this book then bought the printed version for more concentrated study.

Surprised there's no reviews for this gem., Jan 7 2011

This album is the one of biggest surprises I've experienced in music for quite a while. It has an air of innocence and lightness that makes it a perfect Christmas accompaniment. I have several albums of Christmas music, from classic to contemporary, they're all wonderful but this album is the only one that I'm asked about when it comes on. If I was a Doctor, I'd prescribe this album as a cure for a flagging Christmas spirit, really, it is that good. Now I have to temper my exuberance with the confession that I cut out a few of the non-music tracks on my iPod, but that's a personal preference for musical continuity. I hope you give this one a chance.
