5.0 out of 5 stars All of It, April 24, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Honeymooners Trivia (Paperback)

"Very lucky"-that this book exists. It's the most complete Honeymooners trivia book ever. What does it include? "All of it"; that is, every possible Honeymooners question, in multiple choice format. Ninety percent of the people who buy this book will love it ("actually, I think the percentage is higher than that"). It's easy to make sense of; for example, it's easier to understand than "tax OR tax." For any Honeymooners fan, it would make a better gift than 2000 matchsticks glued together.
