From the Inside Flap

Humor Columnist of 1996 by the National Society of Newspaper Columnists, P. S. Wall has tossed the nation on its funny bone with her nationally syndicated column "Off the Wall." Combining the irreverence of Dave Barry and the sass of Molly Ivins, P. S. Wall is as irresistible as that last piece of candy (but much better for you). From marriage to parenthood, from middle-age spread to what women really want, this hilarious collection takes it all on. Now, a few laughs compliments of P. S. Wall:

From the Back Cover

"Erma Bombeck with attitude."
--Atlanta Journal & Constitution

"Wall is charming, a post-modern Erma Bombeck with a smart-aleck streak as wide as she claims her posterior to be."
--Minneapolis Star Tribune

"WALL IS A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH . . . There's something touching about her self-deprecating brand of humor, which doesn't threaten but invites one to commiserate--and laugh."
--Publishers Weekly
