From absurd 911 calls to presidential philosophizing and foolish felons, Leland Gregory generates the best laughs by exposing the worst of human nature. Following up his ‘New York Times’ best-selling ‘Stupid American History,’ Gregory sets his sights on the holidays as he exposes mind-numbing mistletoe maladies in ‘Stupid Christmas: Idiots under the Mistletoe.’Perhaps it’s the spiked eggnog or the multiple family members gathered around crazy-colored, twinkly lights, but the holidays are rife with idiocy by the daft and the dumb. Inside this latest collection, Gregory offers more than 200 accounts of holiday-induced stupidity, including: * While smoke billowed out of the store, firefighters had to physically restrain enthusiastic shoppers from entering a Great Lakes Mall store during an electrical fire.* In 1995, officials debated over whom to invite to the city’s Christmas tree ceremony: President Bill Clinton or the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.* As a joke, Andrew Jackson sent formal invitations to his Christmas ball to a well-known mother-and-daughter prostitute team in Salisbury, North Carolina.
