Almost Interesting CD: The Memoir
<p>A hilarious and biting memoir from the actor, comedian and <em>Saturday Night Live</em> alumni.</p><p>David Spade is best known for his harsh "Hollywood" Minute Sketches on <em>SNL</em>, his starring roles in movies like <em>Tommy Boy</em> and <em>Joe Dirt</em>, and his seven-year stint as Dennis Finch on the series <em>Just Shoot Me</em>. Now, with a wit as dry as the weather in his home state of Arizona, the "comic brat extraordinaire" delivers a memoir.</p><p>Spade takes fans back to his childhood as a wannabe cool younger brother and recounts his excruciating road-tour to fame—when he was regularly mistaken for a fourteen year-old. He dishes about his time on <em>SNL</em> during the beloved Rock/Sandler/Farley era of the 1990s, and brags about the ridiculous perks that fame has brought into his life, including a crazy assistant who attacked him while he was sleeping, being threatened on the street in Beverley Hills by Eddie Murphy, and being one of the shortest guys at the <em>Playboy </em>mansion (the views weren’t bad).</p><p>Sometimes dirty, sometimes just plain silly, David Spade reminds us what made him one of our favorite funny people.</p>
