Summary
"Comedian and 'Live from Here' head writer Tom Papa, author of Your Dad Stole My Rake, tackles the modern condition in a warm (and clean) group of short essays. Exploring his favorite topics-- how people really live in modern America and what's truly good and wonderful about our lives-- You're Doing Great features 75 quick-take essays, including: You Don't Have to Live Your Best Life, Don't Open the Mail, I'm So Baked, I'm Going to Mars--If My Wife Will Let Me, Don't Go Tubing, Shut Up and Eat, You're Doing Great: Life isn't perfect. As these pages will show, my life is far from perfect. There have always been problems and there always will be. You can engage politically, you can fight for the things you believe in, you can work really, really hard, but you shouldn't lose track of the fact that while we're doing all that, life is flying by at lightning fast speed. We live in an amazing time filled with airplanes, scooters, and peanut butter cups. We have air conditioning, blenders, and martini shakers. It's time to refocus, enjoy it all, and realize that you're doing great." --
