David My favorite story was the one that discusses how other cultures insult drivers that cut them off in traffic. Hilarious!

I agree. The cultural differences were interesting and of course what they said was outrageous. :)


Michael So glad you enjoyed! This is one of my favorites by him.

Thanks, Michael. This was a comfort reread for my adjustment to social isolation/work from home. It was definitely good for that! It's one my all-time faves of his as well.
