Book Description: What if you wrote to the Baseball Hall of Fame offering to donate a full set of Mickey Mantle's toenail clippings? Why, they'd be glad to have 'em--even if you are "a Level 4 bed-wetter." Cooperstown is only one of many institutions terrorized in Letters from a Nut, a collection of crazed correspondence by Ted L. Nancy. The name is a pseudonym, perhaps for Jerry Seinfeld, who wrote the introduction. Seinfeld never comes clean, but the yocks sure sound like his material. And the letters have his prints all over them--who else would write the L.A. Lakers posing as a rabid fan who wears pants with a see-through back end, "for medical reasons"? Whoever wrote it, the book's a real lark. Where else can you meet "Pip, the Mighty Squeak," a man who gambles in a giant shrimp costume, or a corn that looks like Shelley Fabares? Only inside the fevered brain of Ted L. Nancy--whether he's Jerry Seinfeld or not.

"I look forward to working with you to create a better future for this great nation." -- Vice President Al Gore

"It is not often that we receive such enthusiastic support for the paper bag." -- The Paper Bag Council

"On behalf of Greyhound, there should be no problem traveling while in your butter costume." -- Greyhound Bus Lines

My Review: This was such a funny book! I think my favorite letter was one he wrote to Greyhound saying he's in a play and wants permission to wear his stick of butter costume on the bus, because he doesn't have time to change once he arrives at his destination. I think I would probably laugh so hard I peed my pants if I was riding the bus with a guy dressed up as a stick of butter.

This excited reader is happy to say it has arrived today. I'm not familiar with the author but I loved your JE so much, I had to read it myself. Thank you for including me in the VBB and I'm already stockpiling some for the possibility of a Round 5. =)

This was so funny! I laughed out loud at some of these letters. I think one of my favorites was the letter to Mars regarding Snickers (I live close to where its made). Anyway, they all made me laugh and I can see some Seinfeld humor in them.

Sending this off in a surprise package to MyssCyn. She recently mentioned the need for some light reading. Humor qualifies! Enjoy. =)

i opened a wonderful RABCK box this morning at 1 AM after i got home from watching two of my favorite 3 yr olds so mom and dad could go to a Spurs playoff game (we won in a LONG overtime!)
I really meant to go straight to bed but HAD to keep reading once I started.
This funny read was just what I needed to keep me up half the night.
Part way through and enjoying the easy read.

Thanks so much dvg. You are my lifesaver recently.

Whoops, marked this as released and should have been marking it as found. This book is in my TBR pile will release again once actually read.

Passing this along to a new reader! I have so many things in my TBR shelf and I had to cut this down without actually reading it. Husband wants me to take up less space with books I haven't even read yet, haha.
