2009-01-08 - Great book!
This book was great. It had a lot of great points and good laughs.
2009-01-07 - Are you kidding me? Humor? NOT!
What??? (12 years in the Army would have me saying something else here, were it not a public forum...)
According to Mr. Leary, children with autism "are not autistic, just stupid. Or lazy. Or both." Excuse me?
Another mother put it best:
"If Mr. Leary had ever been in the presence of an autistic child, he would CLEARLY see that it has nothing to do with laziness or stupidity. Often these children are smart and active. They just have no skills for channeling and focusing that intelligence or energy into so-called "normal" social behaviors. Trying to stir up controversy to sell a book is pretty sad. Why don't you just write a better book that people will actually want to read? Or are you too stupid and lazy for that?"
I concur. Denis Leary is not only NOT funny, he has no soul.
With SO many other GOOD books to buy...why would anyone waste money on this trash!?!?
2009-01-07 - Diamond in the (very) rough!
For those of us with a "50's" upbringing this is about 35% a bit crude but the remaining 65% is intelligent, insightful and fun. I can recommend it!
2009-01-07 - Really?!
Wow--he (and his material) got old! Note to DL: Clinton got that bj almost a dozen years ago, and Anna Nicole Smith has been in the ground for two.
2009-01-06 - great read
Written by DR.Denis Leary, this book delivers also. It's funny, sarcastic, clever, and brings back memories of one's own youth. Must be all Catholic families are the same no matter where you grow up! Some truths never change. Keep up the good work, DR. Leary.
