The bestselling author of The Areas of My ExpertiseΓ’β¬β also known as The Daily ShowΓ’β¬β’s Γ’β¬ΕResident ExpertΓ’β¬Β and the PC in the iconic Mac adsΓ’β¬βpicks up exactly where his first book left off. Exactly. Like its predecessor, MORE INFORMATION THAN YOU REQUIRE compiles incredibly handy made up facts into brief articles, overlong lists, frighteningly complex charts, and beguiling narratives on new and familiar themes such as: THE PAST (because there is always more) THE FUTURE (because they say there is still some left to discuss) THE METHOD BY WHICH WE Γ’β¬ΕELECTΓ’β¬Β OUR PRESIDENTS (as this will be happening soon) THE STRANGE OKAPI (an actual animal) GAMBLING: THE SPORT OF THE ASTHMATIC MAN (includes hermit crab racing) HOW TO BE A FAMOUS MINOR TELEVISION PERSONALITY (hint: go on television) PLUS: 700 MOLE-MAN NAMES (and their occupations) Yes. HODGMAN MAY HAVE BEEN BRIEFLY ABSENT FROM YOUR LIFE, but with this volume he is ready to pick up exactly where THE AREAS OF MY EXPERTISE left offΓ’β¬βspecifically AT PAGE 237.
