This is a great book - but you have to like the show. Unlike the other review I read, he or she is obviously not a David Letterman fan. Well I am and if you are pick up this book! It is hilarious. Read it on the subway, the toilet, the doctor's office waiting room, or during some boring sex (it will definitely spice it up!)

The Late Show provides a never-ending series of laughs about everyday America. "Late Show Fun Facts" allows fans quite a few laughs in between shows.

I laughed extremely hard reading this book, probably will laugh even harder after a few drinks hahahaha. Planning on giving this to my mom (a separate copy, obviously) for a stocking stuffer this year. I'm sure we will have great laughs! We both love Dave! I would say if you love Dave and his sense of humor, this is a good choice. If you like to enjoy a nice bottle...errr glass of wine and read a book, try this on for size to switch it up. Laughter really is the best medicine. But only if you have a sense of humor...otherwise you probably won't get it!

This book is unadulterated humor. These "Fun Facts" are totally awesome, amusing, and a sure-fire way to while away the hours at home, on a long car ride, or even on your own toilet!

Sure there are bad reviews for this book, but I think it takes a special kind of class and a certain poise to really enjoy these fun facts for all they are. Example:

"The Equator is so long it could circle the entire Earth once."

See? and that's just ONE of them! Imagine a whole book filled with these gems! Well, that dream is a reality with David Letterman's Late Show Fun Facts. I great investment for yourself, a gift for a friend, or a way to ease the tension at family get-togethers during the upcoming holiday season!

But in all seriousness, if you enjoy Letterman's style of humor, this book is right up your alley. It's not just Fun Facts either. The book contains FAQs about the FBMI, letters from fans and kids, a detailed process of the Fun Fact creation process and more! Don't hesitate to buy this book, someday it'll top New York's best-seller book list, and that's a fact!

This is a light hearted book. Easy to read, and you can start and stop at any time with no problem. If you are a David Letterman fan, the book is a must!!!!. Would make a Great Gift.

The top ten reasons why Letterman's the King of late night TV
10-Viagra
9-Madonna's been on his show 8 times
8- One of his First jobs was working on Mary Tyler Moore's TV show
7-Sarah Palin wants to go moose hunting with him
6-2 Presidents were on his show in one week.George W was invited,but was busy doing nothing,like he did for the last 8 years.
5-became a first time Father at 56
4-his Mom's cool
3-Leno's on at 10
2-His Staff LOVES him, especially the women
1-Just try and blackmail him
This guy has GUTS,and he admits when he's made horrible mistakes.Even though he's no longer a spokesmen for Depends and FloMax.
Also,the "Late Show Fun Facts" is a funny book

If like David Letterman, you'll like this book. Every page has some weird untrue fact that has some unique charm to it. How can something be so pointless yet so funny?

David Letterman jokes around about his new offering 'Late Show Fun Facts' on his show of course, but he really is right on the money. Despite economic times this book is definately worth the price (even the conversion rate to Australian dollars for myself). If you love the show and especially his fun facts segment this truly does provide you with hours of fun, remembering some he has already done and some great new entries. I still haven't gotten through to the end. So believe me this is no 'pamphlet' it is 239 pages of fun...some will make you cringe, some will make you laugh out loud, but all of them - and other segments and info inserted into the book - you will find endlessly fascinating.

If you prefer Letterman over Leno, you'll love this insanely, irreverant book. If you love the Fun Facts Letterman presents on his show every Friday, this book is for you. It's more than just facts, you also get to know the inner workings of the Federal Bureau of Miscellaneous Information (FBMI) and the intricate process a "fact" goes through before being approved for release to the public. Too, too funny! Right after I purchased this book, a "fact" I submitted for a Fun Fact contest the show was running was selected and I just received a copy of this book signed by Dave, the head sicko himself. Get this book and find out just how funny stupid stuff can really be!!!

I opened this book with an open mind, looking for some good laughs. Unfortunately, I found it less than even slightly amusing. I don't see how it's funny at all, it's a total waste of time and money. I kept thinking to myself, "how is it that this man has built such a huge career off of such poor comedy?" One of the so-called jokes: "No one has a birthday on March 16th." What does that even mean? I suppose Mr. Letterman is an acquired taste. But, if you ask me, don't waste you money!
