1. Actually
They played the entire unedited version last weekend. In its original braodcast it was edited doen for time. I do not know what was edited out at that time.

Last weekends broadcast was of the entire version including what was edited out for the original broadcast. The rebroadcast today was probably edited more for time than any other reason as the original (unedited) version is very long.

4. David Sedaris is seriously funny. Loved "Me Talk Pretty One Day"
I laughed outloud reading some of the chapters in the book, but nothing is as funny as the "Santaland Diaries."

5. I *love* "Naked"
Edited on Fri Dec-24-04 08:51 PM by patsified
I can count on one hand the books that make me laugh out loud until I literally weep, every time I read them. "Naked" is one of the few, followed by several other Sedaris books. What a gem of a writer! He's on my Amazon Wish List, hope my hubby was paying attention!:7
