Publisher's Note David Rakoff is a fish out of water. Whether he finds himself climbing a mountain in New Hamphsire ("if only the mist would part to reveal a beautirful, beautiful parking lot, I will get through this"), or simly sitting quietly in a department store holiday window...for a month ("I am the ghost of Christmas Subconscious, I am the anti Santa, I am Christmas Freud"), Rakoff is simultaneously laugh out loud funny and take your breathaway
