Haha. This book is so crazy. I was a bit disappointed that this book wasn't a literal guide, because this is the kinda book I would want to read, but it's hilarious none the less.

Why don't aliens usually land on Earth? The gas prices are too high!

This book is a comedy book.

I received this book as a gift, and while I had hoped to glean some useful information out of this. While I have never been abducted by aliens, it does not hurt to be prepared. I hurriedly flipped through the pages, looking for a map of vulnerable points on an alien. Surely, I thought, these 'Grays' must have _some_ weakpoints. Mr. Tripician, however, would have us deal with this threat unarmed. His nazi-like refusal to yield even the smallest morsel of valuable information reviews him for the government shill he is. While Mr. Tripician supports the coming alien abduction through his attempt at making light of the very real threat, those who buy this book are monetarily supporting the enemy. Strieber has warned us of 9.9.99--if we do not take heed, we shall all be exterminated.

I wanted to like this book, because I've written a UFO humor book myself. This is more a book of lists than anything...certainly not Dave Barry-like. There was one good joke -- something about having crop circles under one's eyes -- and that was it. Actually I should be happy that something this bad could be published; it gives me hope that mine will find a publisher.

Footnote: please oh please let the reviewer below me be just kidding around.

Anyone who can get rave blurbs from both Robert Anton Wilson ("The funniest book I've read since the Warren Report.") and the late, great Dr. John C. Lilly ("Joe Tripician has achieved the impossible: a truly funny book on alien abductions.") has got to be doing something right -- or something resembling very strange drugs.

I laughed, I cried, I cringed. It seems all too real to be funny, but all to funny to be real. A must re-read!

A humorous look at being abducted, and how to greet an alien with an anal probe with out offending it.
