More DescriptionTROPHY ENVY is a collection of 70 short, humorous, clean, wide-ranging observations attorney Mark Levy recorded for the public radio show, Weekend Radio. The topics range from bizarre rituals of celebrities to contagious yawns to fear of just about everything to the pleasures and importance of taking naps. He speculates on the life of royal food tasters and the products he'd like to see genetic engineers develop. He pontificates on why retiring is not a good idea, nor is traveling. He even discusses the advantages and disadvantages of using the express lane on highways. The essays in TROPHY ENVY are reminiscent of the segment in the T.V. show, 60 Minutes, by the late Andy Rooney, but more informative. In fact, they read like the sort of mini stand-up routines you would expect of Jerry Seinfeld or Robin Williams. They are all short enough to read in your doctor's waiting room or on a bus or in your bathroom. TROPHY ENVY would be an excellent gift for the person in your life for whom other books may be inadequate.
