    Jimmy Fallon and Sister Gloria Fallon has done it, Striking Pure Comic Gold

    Jimmy Fallon has done it again. With his cynical look at life, writing it with his sister has taught so many people how to be a pessimist. It's so much funier coming fron somebody actually knowing comedy. From the funny saying ' Don't keep reaching for the stars cause you'll just look like an idiot stretching like that for no reason', just tells you how we act pesstimistic.

    Terrible

    Not to sound cheap but 8 dollars for a book that takes
    5 minutes to read? It had maybe two funny lines. Honestly Jimmy is a funny guy, but this aint funny.
