Zero to Sixty
Zero to Sixty by Bob Saget 120 pages
Known for his work on tv's "America's Funniest Videos" and "Full House" and "Fuller House" Bob Saget is also well known for his stand-up comedy which is certainly a shade bluer than his family guy tv image. Sort of his Jekyll and Hyde personna. Bob talks about what a fast trip his life has been getting from babyhood to 60 years old. He waxes philosophical and shares many of his experiences throughout his life not hiding the hurtful not the horrible. Not apologizing just relating, He has experienced some hard knocks in life and how he keeps on going regardless. He talks about his coming of age, his marriage, his kids and how the best exes make great friends. A funny and bittersweet tale of the life of a regular guy who's greatest happiness is when he is making other people laugh. Be ready for some surprising comments from the guy you can't not think of as Dad to the Olsen Twins and Cameron Buhe. Good book. I recommend it to adults but only for those who don't mind base humor, fart jokes, penile illiterations and locker room humor. For those who know what 'The Aristocrats," joke is - yeah, he tells that one, too.
