<p>The definitive guide for anyone visiting the Big Apple with a small bladder! Contains a "tongue-in-cheeks" history of the toilet, going way back to ancient Egypt (which may or may not have any true historical significance). But what's really useful are the walking and trotting maps that identify public lavatories along the way because‹in truth‹a good toilet is hard to find. Each men's and women's facility is given a one- to five-star rating so you'll know which ones to seek out and which ones to avoid. Makes a wonderful gift for anyone planning to visit New York, and the New Yorkers themselves who don't want to be picked up by the city's finest for urinating in public or worse.</p>

There are twelve different episodes in this hilarious book, and each one is funnier than the others. The dialogue is liberally sprinkled with Yiddish expletives . . . just like the ones your grandparents used. (Fortunately, a glossary in the back of the book will fill in any missing words in your second- or third-generation vocabulary.) Hoppel Poppel may be irreverent--even blasphemous--but, like it says in the dedication: "If we do not laugh at ourselves, who will laugh at us?" Not recommended for any kid who has not been bar or bat mitzvahed.

Now, at last, an antidote for all those smarmy self-help books that tell you deep breathing and love will pull you through any ill-health ordeal. You know that's crap. As an alternative measure, this book purports to contain highly inspirational anecdotes listed from the confidential medical files of a Dr. Silas Bonnefiglio, who successfully evades any questions regarding his education or training. If you have a sick friend or relative with a sense of humor, they'll adore this tiny tome. You'll feel better reading it even if you are not sick.

You're Sick. Deal With It.

You began by learning to count points, but that only got you so far. Then, someone introduced you to a new idea, Losing Trick Count. Better in theory, sure. But how do you use it? A response shows at least 6 high-card points, but how many losers? How many of these mysterious 'cover cards'? What's the range? Plus, something just seems wrong with the whole thing! How can A 3 2 be just as good as Q 3 2? That cannot be right! Counting Goren high-card points is much easier, and is a very reasonable gauge for bidding square hands. When things start to get distributional, however, you know that you need a better way to evaluate your hand. The concept of winners, losers, and cover cards really seems to be the right path, allowing you to escape from counting points into the world of counting TRICKS! In Winners, Losers and Cover Cards, Ken Eichenbaum reveals not only the secrets an expert would use to better evaluate the real power (or weakness) of your hand, but also how to use this knowledge to your advantage in a myriad number of ways. The author explains a fresh take on popular conventions and treatments, within the context of real auctions facing you at the table, and introduces novel methods, allowing you to maximize the benefit of your new understanding.
