When his Atlanta high school graduating class named him "most humorous," David Cross seized it as a license and ran.

This is a collect of essays that are easy to read and intelligently written. The emails between David Cross and Dave Eggers for an interview are just hilarious. I don't keep many books, but I think I am going to save this one. That says a lot right there.
