This is the perfect book to leave lying around your bathroom. You'll hear guests chuckling to themselves when they go to use your can, I guarantee it! It's not the kind of book you want to read in one sitting, his rants are the perfect length for a short stay on your commode, and funny enough to keep you entertained if you're not going anywhere for a while.

Dennis Miller is either a love him or hate him kind of guy. I find his commentary brilliant and incisive. If you love his brand of humor, I would snap this book up. If you don't like him...go ahead; give him a try again...you know you want to!

This is one of the few books that I consistantly laugh out loud while reading, but it does give you pause to think. (Those who say smoking won't kill you are lying through the hole in their trachea) I find that social commentary delivered with a good dose of humor often is the best way to make ones point without seeming preachy. Miller is the King of this arena. He definitely understands the workings of American society, warts and all, and can absolutely hit the nail on the head every time.

This is a book that manages to deftly walk the fine line of making you think AND entertaining you.

Although Miller is at His satirical best;His structured delivery on every subject starts to get boring halfway through the book.He injects different celebrities in the same old spots and it becomes a mantra after awhile.'I dont want to rant but Dennis baby,find a new free form formula!"

DO NOT listen to the audio tape "Ranting Again" while driving or you may end up in the next rant. Dennis would undoubtedly have something scathing to say about the idiot swerving through traffic because they're laughing too hard to get oxygen into their lungs.

I got a kick out of this book as I do with most books written by stand-up comics. Dennis gives us his side of things which sometimes can be over bearing and a little too real but he's always funny, and makes you think. And why else would you buy his book unless you wanted a good laugh and a little satire.
As serious as the world has become its nice to get a lighter, funnier side of things from a true funny guy that actually has a mind of his own and thinks with his head and his heart. Dennis is spot on, good book, funny.

If you enjoy comedy, Dennis Miller, fulfills that in his Ranting Again. He is a refreshing breath in terms of most comedians who put forth extensive negative rubbish. It is easy to laugh with Dennis in his views of the world and society. This is a definite keeper, and watching it several times does not give way to boredom. Great comedy.

If comic insightfulness were power Dennis Miller would be Superman and the current crop of network laugh lizards would be the combined equivalent of Jared from the Subway ads before he ate his way into our hearts.
Dennis Miller should be mandatory in all of the halls of learning. A nice counterweight to Professor Che-Guevara at (LSU) Lobotomy State U.

After reading "Rants", I thought that this book would be even better. Not true. While this is a worthwhile read, I would suggest reading "Rants" first. In this book, he uses a lot of the same jokes in different rants and they're just not as funny as the ones from the previous book.

This book is the best book I have ever read! I adored this book! It was so funny! And Dennis is sooooo right in some of the rants like the paragraphs on sportsfans and their way of routing for the team!

If you like 'The Rants', you will hurt yourself laughing if you read Miller's new one! It's funnier because he goes a little more in depth in some key areas...you'll see.
