recently finished reading


title: boomsday
author: christopher buckley
(also the author of: thank you for smoking)

favourite quotes:
"so we've gone from 'don't trust anyone over thirty' to 'don't drink any scotch under thirty'? Is this what's become of your revolution?"
"The anthems from my revolution are now background music in TV commercials for cholesterol pills, onboard navigation systems for gas guzzling SUVs, and hedge funds. Everyone sells out. Boomers (referring to baby-boomers) just figured out how to make it an industry."
pg.63


a political satire that
the seattle times calls
"wickedly funny"
and
i'd have to agree
