An excerpt from the soon-to-be-released I Has the Parkinson’s.
Me? Sick? Well, not really. I don’t have swine flu. I’m not down with a fever or anything like that. In fact, I’m not really sick.

In this sneak preview from my upcoming book, I Has the Parkinson’s, you will witness some of the madness of the ongoing battle with my older brother over which holiday hero is better, Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer or Frosty the Stupid-headed Meth-Lab Crackhouse of a Snowman (guess which one I like best?). Throughout its pages the [...]
