The Fred Book

Meet Fred Imus, a latter-day Will Rogers with a touch of Yogi Berra, the younger brother and alter ego of Don "the I-Man" Imus, the nationally syndicated and original shock jock of the airwaves.  The Fred Book collects Fred's incomparable philosophy of life, irresistible politically incorrect ideology on everything from politics ("Here is the entire Whitewater investigation as far as I can gather: which goober knew about what loan and when?") to running a million-dollar catalog business ("Have a brother on radio"); from advice about how to keep women ("Keep yourself clean") to the Catholic Church ("They really do need more Jews calling the shots on the business side").

For the "Imus in the Morning" radio program's legion of fans and anyone up for a little unvarnished Southwestern wisdom.  The Fred Book: Uncut.  Uncensored.  Unplugged.  100% Fred.  Made in the U.S.A.

Fred Imus, a.k.a. "two-legged Fred," is a staple on his brother Don's "Imus in the Morning" talk-radio show, syndicated in over 100 markets around the nation and simulcast on MSNBC.  Fred lives in Santa Fe, where he runs his highly lucrative catalog company, The Autobody Express.  But before that, he mostly restored '57 Chevys when he had the cash, ragged on his ex-wife, and not much else.

Mike Lupica writes four syndicated columns a week for the New York Daily News.  He is also a contributing writer for ESPN Magazine and a regular on "Good Morning America" and ESPN's Sunday morning "Sports Reports" show.  He is the author of a number of books, the latest being Mad as Hell.
