The Little Hiptionary

This little book was so concise and so hilarious and so apt. I am surprised there are no reviews yet. I rate it up there with that old Hollywood Squares book with Paul Lynde and Charlie Weaver. Of course it is only a book of hip slang, but the information is so well-collected and presented as if an official document, complete with pronunciations and amazing use in a sentence examples. Every single page was interesting. I couldn't put it down. It is a great book to throw on the table out on the deck for everyone to pick it up, whenever. "ghetto fabulous adj: stylish in a manner befitting the nouveau riche of the ghetto, with flashy designer clothing and accessories, large, expensive jewelry, and pimped up rides...Jaquan's looking ghetto fabulous with his gold toof and mink hoodie." At $9.99 or so, it's a great gift for graduation or non-graduation.
