Displayed in a way that unexpectantly breaks up topics, reading it is more like reading a nonfiction book than a traditional trivia manual just filled with facts. Unlike most trivia books, which simply line the pages with one liner trivia tidbits, this book is more like "the rest of the story" on topics ranging from retail product failures to most notable quotables ...

A great book and for the most part it's a "guy thing". |
