Bill Maher - New Rules<\/p><\/div>\n
Longer version: “New Rules: Polite Musings from a Timid Observer”\u00a0 by Bill Maher<\/a> was in a local bookstore’s bargain bin. Since I haven’t finished unpacking, I picked it up to pass the time.<\/p>\n The book was easy reading, but I liked it. “New Rules” is a good intro to his sense of humor if you haven’t seen his HBO show. Part of the fun is how he obviously goes out of his way to offend people with highly conservative values. Most of his book is common sense, but he does fly off on a wild tangent every so often.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, like all standup comedian and talk show host books, the book uses an oversized font. Single one-thought paragraphs take up full pages. And the book’s sentences are more than double spaced. The entire thing should have been less than 114 pages, and not 228.<\/p>\n Aside from that, I thought it was good stuff.<\/p>\n Three out of five stars.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 10 words or less : Funny and sharp.
