If
It's Such a Small World Then Why Have I Been Sitting On This Airplane for Twelve
Hours?
A humorous, unique, and
insightful look at
the world, its people, and their cultures as seen through Mad Dog's eyes.
Fifty-three columns include tales from a four-week car trip across the United
States with stops at the Voodoo Museum, the UFO Museum in Roswell, and Bongo
Java, a coffee house with a cinnamon bun that looks like Mother Theresa.
There’s the journal from his two-month stay in St-Malo, France, where he
discovered why he, as an American, was getting the cold shoulder. And it
wasn’t his bad Jerry Lewis imitation. There are tales from a six-month stay in
Bali, a meeting with a Russian spy in Cuba, the coronation of the
Slug Queen in Eugene, Oregon, and his transformation from being a camping weenie
to eating weenies while camping. It’s a
view of the world as you’ve never seen it before, and it includes columns not found
on the web site!
