When fifty-eight-year-old Gabe Kaplan, perhaps best known for his performance in the title role of the popular seventies sitcom Welcome Back, Kotter, got an e-mail asking him to participate in a show called Celebrity Boxing, he couldn't resist the urge to have a little fun with the request. After exchanging a series of ludicrous e-mails with the show's talent coordinator in a mock-serious attempt at negotiation, Gabe was inspired to start a prank e-mail campaign. The result is this hilarious collection of correspondence. See how people react to Gabe Kaplan's absurd claims that he:
* has slept with more women than Wilt Chamberlain
* is an expert at Cossack dancing
* thinks he's smart enough to become a member of MENSA
* wants his image on a U.S. postage stamp
* would like NASA to send him into orbit with Jimmy Carter and Dr. J
* and many more!
Witty, irreverent, and ridiculously comical, Gabe's e-mails and the responses he receives are sure to entertain anyone with a taste for the surreal.
Customer Review: Loved it!
Funny as &)ll.. Cheered me up after a bad day.. my family thought I was losing it because I was laughing out loud.
Customer Review: Kaplan is Back!!!
Gabe Kaplan is a true comedian and it shows in this funny, laugh-out-loud book. A few years ago he started having some fun with people via e-mail about various project ideas and current (made-up, of course) issues he was having in his life. The advice and return ideas that are replied are outright hilarious. I especially enjoy the one where he exchanges e-mails with a "life coach" who encourages Gabe to pull himself up by his boot straps and become the success that HE knows he can be. He even offers to give this advice to Gabe FREE OF CHARGE. What a guy, huh?
Overall, a very fun, lighthearted read that you can just open up to any page and enjoy. And don't you dare feel sorry for the people he's having fun with -- permission was granted to be in the book. Purchase this book and you get a big kick out of it -- I promise.
