I tried the sample of "When My Mind Wanders," then bought the book, then bought three more and that was just yesterday. Kirkland is genuinely humorous and reading his columns (chapters) are breezy and enjoyable, a great way to spend an evening or a train ride or a summer's afternoon at the beach. He IS very much like Dave Barry for those of your have read Dave before "Dave Barry Turns 40," his heyday.I will say that Kirkland is more for us middle-aged married guys (and gals, yes, "gals") than the under-30 crowd. On the other hand, you'll chuckle while reading him if you just watched your parents while growing up.
