Customer comments on this selection.
 This baby is delightful
This humorous memoir has potty humor that even women will enjoy. Seriously, I don't want to give anything away so I'll just say that Kevin Nealon shows us his vulnerable side as he recounts the time his girlfriend/future wife came to his aid in the bathroom. The result is hilarious and surprisingly touching. Nealon's entire memoir is goofy and zany. The content circles around getting older, facing the fears of fatherhood, and pregnancy sympathy pains--all told through a ludicrus and neurotic point of view. Sometimes I didn't know he was setting me up for a joke until I was laughing out loud, delighted to be caught off-guard. The pace and timing has the mark of a talented professional. You might recognize Nealon from his current showtime series, Weeds, and as a former cast member of Saturday Night Live (Pumping up with Hanz and Franz). Good-looking in an average, unostentatious way, Nealon gives off the impression of being just-a-regular-guy, an image that he perpetuates in this book, playing down the glamorous aspects of his life (despite his celebraty status and being married to a Hollywood actress) and playing up his dopiness. Just look on the book's cover, where a disheveled, pajama-clad Kevin wears the same expression you might find on a lost puppy dog.
Recommended for people who like DaVe Barry.
Great Read
This book was an excellent read. A friend of mine gave it to me in the 8th month of pregnancy. It's funny, informative and puts a lot of things in perspective. I highly recommend this book.
Fun Book for a Fan, Fantastic Reading for a New Parent
I saw Kevin less than a year ago doing his stand-up routine at a comedy club, so while reading this book I couldn't help but picture him standing on stage doing his performance. A few of the jokes in the book I remember from his on-stage act, however for those that have seen him perform don't worry, this repetition is only for a small amount of material and it makes the book even more entertaining.
As a fairly new father, I found the book to be extremely funny. It is the first book I have read in a long time that had me laughing out loud regularly. Kevin's child was born less than two months after my own, so many of the topics he talks about are still very fresh in my mind. The truth behind many of the jokes mixed with Kevin's personality (and at times subtle wit) make this an excellent book for any new parent.
Goofy Kevin. Typical Kevin. Hilarious Kevin.
Loved it. Totally typical and hilarious Kevin Nealon. Every line I read, I could see his face...and I would have to chuckel. Great comedy. Highly recommended.
 Good
Enjoyed this book thoroughly. If the baby benefits from laughter, it must be doing great!
