Plt;bPgt;A Plt;iPgt;New York Times Plt;/iPgt;bestsellerP#8212;a brilliantly funny exploration of the Sunshine State from the man who knows it best: Pulitzer Prize winner Dave Barry.Plt;/bPgt; Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;We never know what will happen next in Florida. We know only that, any minute now, something will. Every few months, Dave Barry gets a call from some media person wanting to know, P#8220;What the hell is wrong with Florida?P#8221; Somehow, the stateP#39;s acquired an image as a subtropical festival of stupid, and as a loyal Floridian, Dave begs to differ. Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;Join him as he goes in hunt of the legendary Skunk Ape; hobnobs with the mermaids of Weeki Wachee Springs; and visits Cassadaga, the psychic capital of the world, to have his dogP#39;s aura read (apparently, sheP#39;s Pquot;very spiritualPquot;). Hitch a ride for the non-stop thrills of alligator-wrestling (Pquot;the gators display the same fighting spirit as a BarcaloungerPquot;), the hair-raising spectacle of a clothing-optional bar in Key West, and the manly manliness of the Machine Gun Experience in Miami. Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;ItP#39;s the most hilarious book yet from P#8220;the funniest damn writer in the whole countryP#8221; (Carl Hiaasen, and he should know). By the end, youP#39;ll have to admit that whatever else you might think about FloridaP#8212;you can never say itP#39;s boring.
