About the book

In this uproarious encore to The Grass is Always Greener Over the Septic Tank, Erma Bombeck confronts society's greatest challenge: surviving the Seventies -- the fears, the worries, the anxieties. She shares with her readers some of her deepest concerns: discovering that lettuce has been fattening all along; getting into the Guinness Book of Records under "Pregnancy: Oldest Recorded Birth;" leaving the world suddenly and knowing that no one else in the family can replace a toilet-tissue spindle. - Jacket flap.

First sentence: Next to hot chicken soup, a tattoo of an anchor on your chest, and penicillin, I consider a honeymoon one of the most overrated events in the world.
