Summary: disappointment
Comment: Having read Dan Jenkins' other works, I began this one with considerable eagerness. But it was soon obvious that the author was pushing too hard to be funny. In his other works the humor seemed to flow effortlessly--especially in "Semi Tough" and "Baja Oklahoma" and "Dead Solid Perfect." This isn't to say that the current work isn't without its moments. It's merely that it isn't up to Jenkins' own high standards. That's the sad part of a book that is supposed to be funny. Ya gotta play hurt, Dan. Ya gotta take chances to be funny. The only thing in the middle of the road is a yellow stripe and dead armadillos, as a Texas politician said.

Summary: Just a good ol' boy...
Comment: This was my belated introduction to Dan Jenkins. I picked it up at an airport because there was a football player on the cover (not the cover shown on amazon, obviously), and laughed through my entire flight. I have since sought out and read all of Mr. Jenkins' work - but the adventures of these football Bubbas still remains my favorite. As a native Texan and a football fan, you gotta love any man who drinks in a bar called "He's Not Here". As a woman, I have to say that readers need to lighten up and have a sense of humor about his often sexist (but seriously funny) world view.

Summary: Dan, I still love you; however,
Comment: I have long loved Mr. Jenkins' work and have adopted a few of his witty sayings as my own. It was work to read this one, but I toiled from respect for remembrances of things past. Still a faithful fan, I look forward to Jenkins' redemption.
