If you've ever wondered who wrote the first Christmas newsletter or why compact fluorescent lightbulbs are a Communist plot, this book is for you. "Gimme 15 Inches" collects Dave Molter's best columns and essays in one place for the first time. Naked samurai swordsmen? Rugged revolutionaries who demand two kinds of sandwich spread and sliced cheese to make the fight more palatable? A school board president who deems Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass devil music? They're all here! Why not join them?
