How about that PJ Rourke. Ann Coulter. Michelle Malkin. How do you think they compare to The Brooks-man on the hilarity scale?

I'm sure there was a good deal of double entendre in the title. But it is actually a conflation of the words bohemian and bourgeoise

You think he was trying to be amusing? The word Bobo has been around for a long long time btw. At least Brooks speaks his mind.

I read most of this book standing next to a table on an airport concourse a year or so ago. It was so good, I couldn't put it down to go find a seat. By the time I finished, there were three other travelers standing there reading the book, drawn by my snickers (and a few outright guffaws). I don't know how many got sold that way, but it's definitely an amusing book!
