I Shouldn't Even Be Doing This: And Other Things That Strike Me as Funny by Newhart, Bob - 2007

NY: Hyperion Press, 2007. Reprint . Soft cover. Near Fine. This is a first edition. A guy is having an affair with his boss's wife. They are making mad passionate love, and she says, "Kiss me! Kiss me!" He looks at her very seriously and replies, "I shouldn't even be doing this!" This isn't a memoir like most memoirs. It's a book only Bob Newhart could have written, with his unique worldview and irrepressibly wry humor on every page. Oh, and there's a fair bit of plain silliness too. In this, his first book ever, Newhart gives his brilliant and bemused twist on a multitude of topics, including flying, the trials of a family holiday in a Winnebago, and more serious subjects, such as gold. And of course, there are side-splittingly funny stories from his life and career. Who else has a drinking game named after him? ("Hi Bob!")
