Rating:   Summary: Mostly fluff, pretty funny. Review: The stories and experiences are funny, but not "I'm peeing my pants" funny. Harmon Leon has got guts to do everything he's written about, and that's impressive, but I felt as though half of the stories left me a little unsatisfied. It was worth him writing about how a gun can (and will) be sold to any lunatic off the street, but there's another report about him and his girlfriend renting a plane, so that they can get busy in it. I mean, c'mon, what's the point (other than the fact you like telling people you're part of the mile high club)? Checking out the Hare Krishnas, Jews for Jesus and Scientology religions was interesting, but faking personalities and trying to rent a room? I want my reading to be intelligent AND hilarious. This book was both, but often not at the same time.Bottom Line: Pretty fluffy; perfect for a light reading experience.
  Rating:   Summary: Silly, Intelligent, and Irreverent Review: This book was my introduction to the bizarre world of Harmon Leon and what a way to start!  I couldn't help giggling through the entire thing as he passes himself off as ridiculous personas to the most serious, unsuspecting victims with hilarious results. It was a vicarious experience - I only wish I had the guts to try it!  Harmon gets to peek behind the curtains of Scientology recruitment, the world of lap-dancing and experiences first-hand the scary permissiveness of buying a gun despite presenting himself as most likely to take aim from a rooftop!  An extremely funny read.
