Book Description
David Spade is best known for his harsh “Hollywood” Minute Sketches on SNL, his starring roles in movies like Joe Dirt and Tommy Boy, and his seven-year stint as Dennis Finch on the series Just Shoot Me. Now, with a wit as dry as the weather in his home state of Arizona, the “comic brat extraordinaire” tells his story in Almost Interesting. First Taking fans back to his childhood as a wannabe cool younger brother and recounting his excruciating road-tour to fame—when he was regularly mistaken for a ten year-old, Spade then dishes about his time crisscrossing the country as a comedian, for low-paying gigs and dragging along his mother’s old suitcase full of props. He also covers his years on SNL during the beloved Rock/Sandler/Farley era of the 1990s, including his close working relationship and friendship with Chris Farley and brags about the ridiculous perks that fame has brought into his life, including the constant fear of being fired, a crazy ex-assistant who attacked him while he was sleeping, a run-in with Eddie Murphy on the mean streets of Beverly Hills, and of course an endless supply of hot chicks. Sometimes dirty, always funny, and as sharp as a tack, Almost Interesting reminds you why David Spade is one of our generation’s favorite funny guys.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was supposed to die. I was a superpreemie, and I was allergic to everything. I couldn’t eat anything without barfing it up. I was always scared growing up because I was so fragile. #2 I was born in Michigan. My parents had the idea of moving to Arizona, because my dad wanted to cheat on my mom in a different state. My mom had to go out and get two jobs. I never noticed I was poor, because I was a kid. #3 I was the shortest and poorest kid in my class, and I had the worst school supplies. I was constantly bullied because of it. #4 I had a way with the ladies because I was a nerd. I was also introduced to coin collecting, chess, and guns by my mom’s new husband, Dr. Howard P. Hyde. I struggled through an elective German class because he was a member of Mensa and had gone to Duke.

Mankind
Author: Kathleen M AshleyPublisher: Medieval Institute Publications
ISBN: 1580444482
Category : Literary Criticism

Pages : 98
Book Description
Mankind is at once conventional in its adherence to morality and extraordinary in its effervescence and wit. The text is a morality play warning Mankind how it may be led astray by temptation, while simultaneously entertaining the audience with banter between the characters representing vice. In its small-scale staging, with a smaller number of actors and props, it was written for a theater troupe of the kind that foreshadows modern professional English drama. Presented with a gloss, notes, an introduction, and a glossary, this edition of the lively Middle English play is perfect for any level of Middle English instruction and invaluable to those who teach early drama.
