Did I Write That Out Loud? Larry Ratliff

Bursting with entertaining essays about the raucous, roller coaster life of veteran humorist, public speaker, film critic and stand-up comedian Larry Ratliff, "Did I Write That Out Loud?" covers topics such as why his family doctor broke up with him to see younger patients, what happens when pants begin to have minds of their own and news that the Cold War, a different Cold War, still rages. Ratliff writes from his heart and his funny bone, so even subjects such as a late-night encounter with paramedics, job loss and his father's late-life crisis are skewed with truth softened with humor. Or as Ratliff puts it, "We might as well laugh. It's only life."
