Book Review: Puppy Blender Whirs Along
Posted by RightWingDuck at 06:06 PM | View blog reactions | Comments (10)

For those of you who don't know, the Glenn Reynolds aka The Puppy Blender has come out with a new book.

Now, I'm not the kind of person who judges a book by it's cover - especially as Harvey has shown today - the book has no cover! My friends will tell you that I, RWD, do not judge my friends by their looks - even the ugly ones. So, I won't criticize the lack of cover.

Instead of that - I'd like to be one of the first to review this latest "offering" from the "puppy blender" since he hasn't taken the time to "write" a "book".

RWD's Review of the Amazon Listing of Instapundit's New Book -

You can tell a lot about a book by it's amazon descrption. And I'll tell you, this one is telling us a whole bunch of stuff. Stuff, that you may not want to hear..

(cue Halloween Music)

This book is titled "An Army of Davids : How Markets and Technology Empower Ordinary People to Beat Big Media, Big Government, and Other Goliaths.

The first "fact" I'd like to review is that the book costs $16.49!!

How is that bad, you might say. I knew you wouldn't notice, but I, having the valuable insight that can come from drinking lots and lots of beer, am on to something here!! 1649 was the year that Maryland Passed its Toleration ACt. That meant that if you didn't profess your faith in Christ - they would kill you.

This isn't bad as far as laws go - I'm pretty sure it's part of the Governors Swearing In Oath for Utah. in fact, we should double check to make sure this law hasn't expired elsewhere just because it would so tick off the ACLU.


But, do you get it? If we don't profess our faith in Instapundit - who knows what might happen? Death? Dismemberment? No links from his website (P.S. Glenn, please link to us)

(cue scarey Halloween Music)

Anyway - this "book" only gets worse. Although I haven't opened it or read it we can certainly know everthing we need to learn from the title! An Army of Davids? The People? When you have a bunch of David's marching and proclaiming stuff in the name of the "people" then what you have is either a Gay Pride parade or a Move On Rally!! (BTW, wasn't Goliath a "giant of a man")

That's right!! Um, what was my point? HOld one let me reread everthing...

Okay. That wasn't what I meant to say at all.

In conclusion let me just say this - Glenn would LOVE it if you bought his book. Sure, he would like for you to do that. So go ahead.

What are you waiting for?

Go.

Go now.

SEE! You can't do it because you know I'm right!! Bwu ha haa hahaha.

You know why no cover? Paper trail?

You know why no book reviews? Paper trail.

That's right - Instapundit is trying to get on the Supreme Court!! But he needs money to do it - because SCOTUS nominations aren't free you know!

Anyway. Waste your money on it if you want.

Me, I'm going to buy another Great U.N. Shirt!!

We're on to you Instapundit!

:: shakes fist::

Thanks for visiting IMAO. Tune in next week where I review something I've actually read.

first?

What do you mean by "first?"

(looking around suspiciously)

And who are you? Who put you up to this?

You're plotting against me. You're ALL plotting against me. I just know it.

Ducky, curse you and your instalanche.

I pointed out it has no cover, not harvey.

#5 - Posted by: spacemonkey on October 17, 2005 09:47 PM

You forgot to put that an army of David's would probably be an army of David Duke's...almost, but not quite, worse than and army of Move-on's...

#6 - Posted by: Ben on October 17, 2005 09:53 PM

Wow, Ducky got an Instalanche? All for saying that the book wasn't worth buying?

What has the world come to?

#7 - Posted by: SeanS on October 18, 2005 03:38 AM

That's almost like getting multiple instalanches for claiming he blends puppies :)

#8 - Posted by: Frank J. on October 18, 2005 08:22 AM

I understand that to negate the "puppy blender" charges, the hardcover version of the book is bound with the hides of kittens.

Can anyone confirm/deny?

#9 - Posted by: apotheosis on October 18, 2005 09:52 AM

I always thought that if you had a bunch of David's walking around proclaiming stuff for the "people" then you get communism. You know, the people's republic, the people's army, etc.

Evil Glenn is not just evil, he's an evil communist.
