I just have a little story about a book I recently read. About a week ago, my newspaper had an article about a local college student publishing a book called "Something About Nothing." And it sounded like it would be an interesting read, at the least, so I bought a copy. I have to tell you, this book had me in tears because I was laughing so hard. I seriously cannot remember the last time I laughed like that. In one letter, this student, Adam Palmer, tried to buy a company for $24 and actually sent them the check! Another one had him contacting a cereal company saying that he had found a ten dollar bill in his cereal, but that he only wants to know if anyone at the company lost the bill because he wants to return it.
I just can't imagine how this guy came up with these letters. It's even more mind boggling that companies responded. Lol.
I would definitely recommend this book to anyone of any age looking for a good, long laugh. I bought mine at a local mom and pop bookstore, but I noticed that it can also be bought online at the usual book sellers. Barnes and Noble, Booksamillion, Amazon, or PublishAmerica.com (The publisher). Amazon.com even has a sample letter if you want to read it.
Everyone who is looking for a great coffee table book or even a gift for someone, this is the book to buy. I know I'm getting a few more for my relatives this Christmas. I promise, you won't be disappointed with "Something About Nothing."
