A New York Times bestseller--a brilliantly funny exploration of the Sunshine State from the man who knows it best: Pulitzer Prize winner Dave Barry.
By the end, you\'ll have to admit that whatever else you might think about Florida--you can never say it\'s boring..
It\'s the most hilarious book yet from the funniest damn writer in the whole country (Carl Hiaasen, and he should know).
Hitch a ride for the non-stop thrills of alligator-wrestling (the gators display the same fighting spirit as a Barcalounger), the hair-raising spectacle of a clothing-optional bar in Key West, and the manly manliness of the Machine Gun Experience in Miami.
Join him as he goes in hunt of the legendary Skunk Ape; hobnobs with the mermaids of Weeki Wachee Springs; and visits Cassadaga, the psychic capital of the world, to have his dog\'s aura read (apparently, she\'s very spiritual).
Every few months, Dave Barry gets a call from some media person wanting to know, What the hell is wrong with Florida? Somehow, the state\'s acquired an image as a subtropical festival of stupid, and as a loyal Floridian, Dave begs to differ.
We know only that, any minute now, something will.
We never know what will happen next in Florida.
