This book is hysterical. Justin Halpern's dad is hysterical. 
 I picked this up today for $1.99 on the kindle store. It's short and can be read in one sitting. Justin Halpern seems to have turned out okay, so profanity can't possibly be the reason kids today turn out all fucked up. In fact it's probably the opposite. We probably all need a little more profanity in our lives. Some more Speedy and Wile E Coyote and good old Elmer Fudd Daffy Duck cartoon violence. 
 This is my review and it sucks. But I'll leave you with a quote from Justin's dad that I think sums up perfectly where America went wrong: 
 On Whether to Vote for George W Bush or Al Gore: 
 "Gore seems kind of like a pompous prick, but every time I see Bush I feel like he's probably shit his pants in the last year and it's something he worries about." 
 And this one, just because: 
 Response to having my tires slashed: 
 "Oh, don't go to the goddamned cops. They're busy with real shit. I don't want my tax dollars going to figuring out who thinks you're an asshole."
