Summary: One of the funniest and a great gift-
Review: I remember when this first came out years ago and it is still just as funny. This is a complete Sunday paper from a boring town in Ohio. It includes local and national news, wedding annoucements, comics, classifieds and a sunday magazine as well as complete TV listings!

I laughed out loud at several pages. For any humor book there are some duds but they are few and far between with this excellent parody. You want to read this out loud to friends.

Some poor taste and not PC which is what makes it great. For example, this newspaper not only lists births but also lists abortions.

You'll enjoy reading this over and over.

Summary: A Timeless Parody
Review: This is a re-issue of the companion to the 1964 Yearbook Parody. An entire edition of the Dacron, Ohio Sunday Newspaper. Ads, Comics, Classifieds, Sports, TV Guide ... the whole enchalada.
You'll find something new each time you look at it. Be sure to read the fine print on every page. There's a joke to be found everywhere you look.
A true classic

Summary: Great irreverent humor
Review: Unlike some of the other Rugged Land re-issues, this one is in softcover, which is somewhat regrettable. Still, it's a vast improvement over the original, which was on newsprint (my old copy is quite aged). It is politically incorrect (very incorrect, in fact) but wickedly funny. It pokes fun at small-town politics, along with NL favorites like Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford, JFK and Jackie. A sequel to the High School Yearbook parody, all of the graduating class show up in various ways and in their 1978 professions -- Larry Kroger as a guidance counsellor, Herb Weisenheimer as a car salesman, Amana Peppridge as a porn star, etc. While some of the jokes are childish, much of the humor is laugh-out-loud funny. Overall, the humor is a bit meaner than the yearbook parody but much of it is spot-on -- particularly some of the jokes about the newspaper and local business being far too cozy. I particularly liked the City section's profile of the "Powder Room Prowler."
