Book Report: An Altogether New Book of Top Ten Lists by David Letterman (1991)
It looks as though it's been four and a half years since I read the first Book of Lists, and what a four years it has been. Punchlines about Iraq and President Bush, written in 1990 about a different set of circumstances, still cause one to do a doubletake.

Like the other book, the best lists are on topics that aren't dated; the ones that are, I can appreciate for the historical/nostalgic value and get some of the humor from them, but they're not going to last long. Of course, you can get these lists on the Internet now, but when has free availability online ever stopped me for spending a buck or less for a paper copy?
