Insist that the toilet paper hang "over"? Wait for the phone to ring at least twice before answering? Admit it, you're crazy!
EXCERPT in AARP BULLETIN - MAY 2005 "A hilarious collection of odd behaviors that are surprisingly endemic among humankind. Intended for mirth and amusement, yet at the same time absolutely true, Admit It, You're Crazy! and And I Thought I Was Crazy! cheerfully embrace the bizarre little mannerisms and habits that help us cope." MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW "To give her fellow Americans the feeling that they're not alone, as well as a chance to chortle or smirk at others' idiosyncrasies, Judy Reiser has collected some 600 gem-like examples." THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW "Quirks cut across the boundaries of sex, income, race and marital status. Everybody has them. Reiser got grown people to think about it, and to tell her about it." THE WASHINGTON POST "Judy Reiser's concept of collecting the foibles of Everyman is not only unique, but genius. She invented the category. You will find yourself in her book, and when you do you will laugh out loud." ED CLANCY, Radio Broadcaster "If you're one of the crazy people, you have the sympathy of myself and all us other normal ones. I'm finished with the column now, so I can go home, as soon as I tap the space bar seven times." BOB GREENE "It's not often you come across a book that makes you laugh out loud on practically every page." THE HUNTSVILLE TIMES "Within minutes I found myself laughing out loud at the confessions that are revealed. Its content will be well received by anyone from the ages of 6-106."
