If America enjoyed the bestseller about SH*T someone?s dad said, then they'll love Bob Cairns? Stories I Couldn't Tell Until My Mother Died. The stories here run from laugh-out-loud funny to poignant memories that will bring readers to tears. A number of Cairns? remembrances from this incredible gathering come with the blessings of his editors at Sports Illustrated, TV Guide, Field & Stream and other national magazines. But more than 100 are first-time, never-before-told originals, with a number wrapped in the name recognition of high-profile celebrities?Steve Allen?(?Silly Today Thanks To Steve and Tonight?); Martin and Lewis (?Brush With Greatness?); Tom Arnold (?Tom, Terry and Tim?); John Denver (?How I Pissed off John Denver?); Bill Cowher (?Planes, Trains and Mopeds?); Richard Simmons; (?No Pants No Gain?); Bob Costas (?Crossword Costas?); Jim Valvano (?V&Me?) and Rudy (?The Making of Rudy?). Cairns says that his mother claimed that the gathering herein began July 6, 1943. ?I was born breech and there was rarely a day that went by that my mother didn?t claim that was the reason that I tended to get so many of my tales backwards!? Julia (who lived to the ripe old age of 96) had a wonderful sense of humor. And the fact that she?s pictured here on the book?s cover holding a crock? Well, her son?s guess is that her reaction would be, ?Hooray for irony!?
