A fascinating glance inside one of my favorite childhood comics and adult entertainers. I sensed it was therapeutic for Steve to write it, and it was for me to read it. And by the way, Steve was the best Oscar host of the last 20+ years and should do it every year.

Excellent writing, great story
Steve Martin is an excellent writer. I devoured this book in two nights. Very thought provoking and enjoyable.

Are there more like me out there?
To me this is an other selp promotion book by Steve Martine, as he pats himself on the back. Who was the person who called Steve Martin a Guinuess. He is far From it. He holds the worst comedy act in history, Right up there with Jerry lewis, How could this guy get the Kenedy Center Honnor, All he did was ride on the shirt tales of the Saterday Night Live Crew. Most of his Movies Bombed! And who in there right mind would have the Balls to step into Jack Lemmons shoes inthe Out of Towners or take on Petter Sellars roll in the Pint Panther. These guys must be rolling over in there graves. The Pink Panther Bombed so bad that he is makeing Pink Panther II. What an idiot this guy is. The King Tutt thing and the Ex-cuse me Thing, had to be the most stupid comedy sketches. Threr are Comic that deserve praize, Like Robbin Williams, I just feel Steve Martin runs around praizing himself and waiting for people to agree with him. “The Jerk” pretty much somes it up. He is one.
