Mentioned the other day that there is a joke in Coop that I wrote for myself and as far as I know no one has ever pegged it.
It’s in Chapter Five. And it’s contained within this line: I am well aware that on a scale of one to Britney, I peg the fame meter roughly three notches below the lieutenant governor of Maine…
Can you figure the punch line?

I have a joke in Chapter Five of Coop that – as far as I know – no one has ever picked up on. It involves me poking fun at myself.
I did an interview with BronxToBarn.com a while back. They’ve posted the interview here.
It’s always strange when an interview you did weeks/months ago is posted…I have no idea what I said. I trust if there’s anything controversial or embarrassing or generally knuckleheaded, someone will let me know.
Omelet for breakfast, drumstick for supper, so clearly the egg came first.
Working on a 500-word magazine piece about how many pullups I can do. So far, one.
