This review is from: Kudzu Don't Cover Everything (Paperback)

Kudzu,a vine first introduced into the United States in 1876 as a foilage,has overrun large portions of the South,taking over forests,roadsides and countless buildings."Kuzdu," says Bo Whaley,"grows faster than a runaway husband can run,covers everything in sight,and can't be controlled.Prolific as it is ,however,it can't cover everything.
That's where this book comes in:
In 176 pages Whaley covers just about everything with Southern humor,wisdom,thuths,and an endless string of one-liners.Find a good chair in the shade,a cool drink,and get set for some entertaining reading.Personally,I'm not in favor of tape-books;but if any book would be good on tape,this one would be it.
Here's just a bit to whet your appetite:

The farmer remains the world's most stubborn optimist.

Some proposed political appointments:
Secretary of Defense--David Koresh
Secretary of Transportation--Ted Kennedy
Director,CIA--Oliver North
Director Secret Service--Don Knotts

Director FCC--Howard Stern
Surgeon General--Dr.Ruth
White House Communications Director--Rush Limbaugh

Show me a man with both feet on the ground,and I'll show you
a man who can't get his pants on.

Colleges and insane asylums both are mental institutions in
a way.But one has to show some improvement to graduate from
an asylum.

What did the blond name her pet zebra?
Spot.

What do you call a brunette between two blonds?
An interpreter.

The nurses always say,"How's our leg today?"or "How's our
back today?"But when I touched our thigh,she slapped our
face.

One of the most difficult things in the world is to know
how to do something and to watch without comment,somebody
else do it incorrectly.

That's it folks;you're on your own to read the rest.
