Dave Barry Is Not Taking This Sitting Down!

Pulitzer Prize-winning humorist Dave Barry is a pretty amiable guy. But lately, he' s been getting a little worked up. What could make a mild-mannered man of words so hot under the collar? Well, a lot of things- like bad public art, Internet millionaires, SUVs, Regis Philbin . . . and even bigger problems, like
- The slower-than-deceased-livestock left-lane drivers who apparently believe that the right lane is sacred and must never come in direct contact with tires
- The parent-misery quotient of last-minute school science fair projects
- Day trading and other careers that never require you to take off your bathrobe
- The plague of the low-flow toilets, which is so bad that even in Miami, where you can buy drugs just by opening your front door and yelling " Hey I want some crack, " you can' t even sell your first born to get a normal-flushing toilet
Dave Barry is not taking any of this sitting down. He' s going to stand up for the rights of all Americans against ridiculously named specialty " - chino" coffees and the IRS. Just as soon as he gets the darn toilet flushed.
