From a widely published author and the father of three kids and of one kicking and screaming Inner Child that refuses to go to sleep or to grow up, this varied anthology of humor imagines what would happen if Jesus Christ, Mahatma Gandhi, and the Buddha walked into a bar and had to explain their life choices to a Long Island plumber. Or if an Indian standup comic had to explain his past to an American audience. Or if the First City Sperm Bank were to make a commercial appealing for deposits. Or if Ernest Hemingway were to rewrite a key scene from The Great Gatsby.
The title is merely the title essay of a book of varied humor infused throughout with a childlike spirit of rebellion, nonconformism, and of seeing the adult world—including the political world—as absurd.
