My favorite book title is The Man With No Endorphins by James Gorman. I am the woman with no endorphins, so that's why that title appealed to me.

I loved that book !

Sort of makes the book store owner paranoid.
Another good one: "Ignore this Post," by Kazoo.

A confederacy of dunces is one of my all time favorites. Ever since I read it about 20 years ago I've longed to write letters which start out something like "dear mongoloid idiot" and I frequently drift back to the image of Miss Trixie padding around the work place in her pajamas.
What a shame he only wrote one.

I can't remember the author's name but I know he commited suicide.
He was very talented, judging by the book.

Wonderful, funny book. I got it in about 1977 as much for the title as anything else; it's an oldie, like its owner.

Ritch - I loved it! The protagonist is anything but an idiot. He justs sits back and takes it all in.
