Hodgman, John -- The Areas of My Expertise

This is the sort of ironic, cod-educational writing that I loved finding when I was young. St. Fidgeta and Other Parodies? The Snouters? Dragons: The Modern Infestation? No? Jeez, did you miss out. However, this one fell kind of flat for me. Maybe Dave Eggers has used up our generation's supply of deadpan. There are some good bits, however, mostly when the author lets odd connections glimmer through between unrelated topics. Oh well. (No, really, you never read Legal Daisy Spacing?)
