Review
The title, as Dave Barry admits, is not entirely accurate. To be sure, this collection of articles does contain what the Pulitzer-Prize-winning author calls "an unusually high (for me) level of factual content." But there is also an abundance of goofy reportage, fart jokes (see "It's A Gas"), and Barry's long-overdue thoughts on natural childbirth.
From the Publisher
Although it has been three years since Dave Barry Is Not Making This Up was published, customers are asking not only about Dave's more recent books, but also this quirky book. It is filled with funny anecdotes about anything from combustible strawberry Pop-Tarts to Elvis worshippers.
