Mybook

Deb Mercier's weekly newspaper column, Back Space, made its debut in 2005, spawning such classics as "Bovine feeding frenzy," "Attack of the hair dryer," and "Ode to a Dead Carp." In addition to these timeless treasures, Deb has carefully collected the columns addressing today's vital issues including: Dogs, kids, and other dangerous critters / Holidays, shaving, and other dubious activities / Lutefisk, swimsuits, and other nightmares. From walking Las Vegas in cruel shoes to the dangers of bolting musk thistle, "myBook" explores it all with wit - sometimes gentle, sometimes sharp, usually with an inescapable conclusion: We're all nuts.
