Review: This is one of those exceptional books, universal in scope, that already existed as a Platonic ideal but no one had yet written. Everyone has served up to himself or herself at least one of the rationalizations listed here ("What are the odds of a handicapped person needing this spot while I drop off my video?"). Always a good idea to have a reference volume like this handy--you never know when you'll need more. Very funny and sharp. And the drawings by Roz Chast are a perfect counterpoint to the prose. A perfect gift for every man, woman, and child on the planet. If I tried to improve this review it would just sound less spontaneous and sincere.

Review: Truly an entertaining bit of ephemera. This little book immortalizes while skewering all those rationalizations that we all try to fall back on - like Jeff Goldblum's character says in "The Big Chill," (sorry, a paraphrase only) "Rationalizations are wonderful. I can't get through a day without three or four." And truly a fun gift !
