No one knows wacky like the geniuses at the Bathroom Readers' Institute, whose book sales are 3 million copies strong and growing. For 2006, they present another year of quirky factoids, odd anecdotes, and more weird, wonderful, and compulsively readable fun. Dumb Crooks, including the South Carolina guy who went to the police (evidence in hand) to report he had been sold a substandard cut of cocaine. The origin of the phrase "tying the knot": Ancient Roman brides wore girdles tied together with hundreds of knots (it was hubby's job to untie them). Plus Thoughts for the Throne, Roll Call, Legal Briefs, Pot-Pourri, and Uncle John's Reading Room.
