Uncle John's Bathroom Reader is a quirky, compulsively readable, and just-plain-fun compendium for the 68 % of Americans who read in the john—and anyone with a wacky sense of humor. Offbeat trivia, riddles, weird-but-true stories. Clueless criminals, like the guy who robbed two gas stations while wearing a court-ordered monitoring device. Strange inventions: electronic underwear that measures your vital signs, calls emergency services if necessary, and is machine-washable! Plus The Bare Facts, Spaced-Out Sports, and gross 18 th-century beverages, such as Cock Ale, a mixture of beer and chicken soup.

Learn about Underwater Hockey, Cricket Spitting, and more Real But Strange Sports. Dumb Crooks, like the guy who not only decided to check e-mail while robbing a house, but forgot to log out of his account.
Plus Bathroom Brainteasers, “Cell Phone Elbow” and other strange medical conditions, Myth-Conceptions, and the origin of Rollerblades.
