Ohmigod....did you know that there is a video clip on YouTube of Sedaris reading the Stadium Pal on David Letterman? It is even more hysterical hearing him read it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBdymtyXt8Y
Couldn't agree with you more. Last night, I was reading the very same in Starbucks, and had to stop when I realized everyone was staring at me (made even worse as I was reading it on my Kindle, which looks like I am laughing at a day-planner or oversized calculator.) Sedaris has this knack for hitting it right on the money. A few years back I was asked that age-old question about who I would have at a dinner party....most people said the usual, (Jesus, Gandhi, MLK, etc) I said "David and Hugh."
A must read, as is anything he wrote (esp. Me Talk Pretty One Day, which still makes me laugh out loud years after having read it, at any spontaneous moment.)
Sedaris Rocks!
