The phrase, "stranger than fiction," was never more aptly applied. A former reporter, Steve Busalacchi, reveals his 25-year collection of the most amazing, hysterical names straight out of the newspaper. Real people like dentist Dr. Mark Toothacre, life guard Brad Beach and artificial insemination specialist David Siemens are among the 700 featured. 

Reality Humor at its Best
