Laugh Out Loud Funny

Normally I have a particular book I read on the subway. If you live in NYC and cannot afford a car (which costs $10K a year just to maintain, including insurance, parking, and tolls), you take mass transit. The mass transit in this town is spectacular. With buses and subways going to practically every part of Manhattan, giving up your car isn't a huge sacrifice.

Anyways, because everyone takes subways everywhere, you just have to have something to read while your on the trains. Sometimes you'll be on a train for an hour; at other times, less but still a long time. Ergo, carrying a book or magazine is essential.

My subway book this time around is called Magical Thinking, by Augusten Burroughs. This book is a collection of short stories from the author of Running with Scizzors. If you want a book that'll make you laugh out loud while causing your fellow subway riders to look at you and then each other, then this book is for you.
