Call Me Mad Dog is more of the same, as far as the illustrations, and it does have some ridiculously hilarious parts - if you remember the end of FI, when Tomato hooks up with Hodie/Hooter, CMMD is about when she and Hodie break up and she decides to get revenge on Hodie for cheating... and winds up in prison on a murder charge. I think it is more illustrated than FI, not sure. But it only had one really deep belly laugh, and a lot of rambling towards the end. Whereas... TTV is another kind of book completely. I think the literary quality is high enough to put it in an entirely different category.
and hehe... I used to lie on the beach at Lakeview Park in Lorain, OH with my stepmother reading Abbie Hoffman and Timothy Leary books in the middle of summer... and swim occasionally. I was so used to lake and pool swimming that I've never really been able to adjust to ocean swimming here in FL... it's too big, too cold.
