Self-Help
The good news is: You've got a date. The bad news
is: Your mother sent him. Picture this: Mom swears
she's found "the one" for you, her baby girl, and you end up
on the date from hell. If you've been there, done
that, you'll appreciate the dating catch-22 that is
Have I Got a Guy for You. In this
take-no-prisoners collection of hilarious, wince-inducing
true stories, you'll meet two dozen victims of Mom's
well-meaning meddling and hear the unvarnished details of
what they suffered through: - The schoolteacher who
never wants to leave his house-or the couch
- The mother
who writes letter after letter to Michael Gelman,
then-producer of LIVE with Regis & Kathie Lee, hoping
to persuade him to ask her daughter out
- The woman who's
set up with her cousin-by-marriage
- The writer who
endures eights hours of a Dungeons & Dragons convention
- The over-zealous actor who performs a monologue at
Starbucks
- And the lawyer who sadly can't perform . . .
