ur one episodes.......2004-07-16
make them do what evre u want! it's enough 2 please any die hard fan such as myself.
I love it!.......2003-08-05
I love this item! Got mine in the mail today and have been playing with it all afternoon. Perfect gift for the 20-something *kid* or any South Park fan. Brings back memories of the sticky-forms from my youth.
Great fun for all South Park fans!.......2001-04-12
I bought this about a year ago , and when I first opend it, I new it would be ohers of fun. I spent 3 ohers on it. Thers 130 pesses of your favorite South Park charecters, or most of them. About a year later I lost most of the pesses. But I still have alote of fun with it. You can make you very own South Park episodes. They dont have as much cursing in it as the show. They only have 5 curse words. You can choose from 10 different South park backgrounds from the show. Like the classroom, the cafeteria, and Starks pond. You can make Kenny die over and over. For some people it can get boring, but for big South Park fans like me, even without most of the pesses its still fun! Well, Irecommend it for South Park fans. It can be hard to understand for some people who arnt farmiliar with alot of the South Park charecters. Well I got to go play with it right now!
Sticky Fun!!.......2000-11-27
If you like/love South Park then this is a book that you will have to put on you wish list or get. You can make Kenny die anyway you want. You can even make Stan and Wendy kiss! There are ten diffrent backgrounds that you can put them in. Even on each background there are little clips taken from that episode of South Park. This is a awesome book that the whole family will love....maybe.
Great Gift!.......1999-05-01
I gave this gift to my kid (well, okay, he's grown and married) for Christmas. He and his wife had hours of fun making scenes together and remembering all the episodes. They even let me do some scenes!
This is a wonderful exercise in creativity and play for those of us with an SP sense of humor!!

Education with an Angle.......2005-06-25
The typical encyclopaedia is written without an authorial voice or angle. For example, you can read dozens of entries by the same contributor in Britannica, without discovering anything about his secret lover in Bolton or what he had for breakfast that morning. For followers of FR Leavis, this may be fine. But for many of us, this is not enough, and the eminent Dr Fegg's book fills a big gap in the market.
Dr Fegg's aim was not only to cover his expenses while on the run, but also to educate pre-adolescent children in the essentials of life, as well as proving that he had almost nothing to do with the Bournemouth Axe Murders.
Some people got the wrong idea. In its original 1974 version, it was called THE NASTY BOOK FOR BOYS AND GIRLS. But after many complaints about it being an inappropriate birthday present, and several inquests, and only two Old Bailey trials, the title was changed to the present name.
In the 31 years since its publication, I have tried to live my life according to Feggist principles, barely washing from week to week, and gradually whittling away the stock of relatives. The mandatory life sentences have been a bit of bummer, but you can't have everything. I wish I'd been able to put into practice Dr Fegg's advice about crossing the Andes by frog.
It was, of course, Dr Fegg who ended all chances of a Rutles reunion, and since the disappearance of Ron Nasty, Dr Fegg has had to lie very low indeed. Some say he is in South America. Others say the Himalayas. His only link now to the outside world is Mike Palin, who was only half-responsible for the Skegness Impaling. It is alleged that Mike goes to see him every now and then, under the guise of a new series for the BBC, in order to channel some of the proceeds from the enormously successful (in an in-between-Holy-Grail-and-Tomkinson sort of way) encyclopaedia.
I somehow doubt it. But I enjoyed this book tremendously.
One of the funniest books ever.......2004-02-10
I got this book in like fifth grade, I don't remember, but I still have my original "Dr. Fegg's Nasty Book Of Knowledge" with tape on the binding because I wore it out. I am holding it now. I remember distinctly when and where I bought it, a now-defunct newsstand in my home town. I remember because I laughed so hard while walking back to my house after I bought it that my stomach hurt and I was crying.
From the Deliferate Mistale to the Creeping Manuria, a great book.
Why No Booker Prize for Dr. Fegg?.......2004-01-27
While many people claim to know Dr. Fegg personally, I write with complete probity when I state Dr. Fegg is, indeed, a close personal friend of mine. We first became acquainted ten years ago when Dr. Fegg sacked his then-literary agent Ms. Esther Scallop. Amazed by my vast knowledge of the publishing industry, as well as my knowledge as to the whereabouts of Ronald Biggs, Dr. Fegg hired me to promote his work. In this particular tome (don't you just love the word 'tome?'), my favourite bits are "Crossing the Andes By Frog," and the frightfully clever pantomine entitled, "Aladdin and his Terrible Problem." It is astounding that Dr. Fegg has thus far escaped nomination for the Booker Prize. He has more talent in the tip of his pinkie than V.S. Naipul has within his entire being. Please buy this book. Royalty money comes in handy. If you can't buy it, hunt down someone who owns it and steal it from them. Chances are they will not give it up without a fight so it is recommended that you bring a pair of brass knuckles or a can of mace. Good luck!
I laughed until I couldn't breathe..........2003-04-30
Remember the Python routine about a "killer joke?"
This book came close to being a collection of such jokes. Nearly every story made me, and several of my friends, laugh until we almost couldn't breathe.
Over twenty five years later, it still has the same effect.
(GET THIS BOOK BACK IN PRINT!)
Buy and destroy.......2002-08-01
I had hoped that civilized society had seen the last of Dr. Fegg's nasty little pamphlet. This is a work a certified lunatic who is now a depleted geriatric living on the outskirts of the Scotish outer Hebrides..do not be fooled!!...the right and kind fellows of the English variety troop, aptly named Monty's Python had no hand in this. The true tale is that of a heartless killer has been trying to ruin the nights sleep of innocent children worldwide with this satanic bedtime treatise.

Book Description
Collecting Antique Meerschaum Pipes: Miniature to Majestic Sculpture, 1850-1925 is an illustrated guide to the smoking utensils made of a mineral that has been used since at least the early 1700s and which is, today, still a popular material. In the last decade, a surge in interest in tobacco collectibles has already spawned many books on cigarette lighters, cigar-box labels, and snuff boxes and bottles. This book now comes at a time when antique meerschaums are taking center stage, and collecting them is like buying blue-chip stocks. Ben Rapaport is one of the few internationally recognized authorities on the subject of antique pipes, and in this, his second book published by Schiffer, he has created a powerful and convincing tour de force in word and picture that evidences why so many pipe collectors have a fervent passion for these exceptional works of art. Ranging from very diminutive and expressive cigarette holders to massive sculptured pipes, these instruments were produced by many talented, skilled, and unknown craftsmen working in a cottage industry trade 150 years ago. The caliber of their handiwork and the myriad imaginative meerschaums they produced cannot be duplicated anywhere in the world today. Now, this volume is a permanent record of their unrivaled genius.

A "must read" book for pipe collectors........1999-03-20
As a collector and admirer of meerschaum pipes, this is the book I've been waiting for. The author, Ben Rapaport, is well known among antique pipe fanciers for his earlier works, including the standard work, Complete Guide to Collecting Antique Pipes (which discusses all types of antique pipes not just meerschaums, published in 1979 and recently reprinted) and the lovely and informative Museum of Tobacco Art and History Guidebook (1996). But his newly published book, Collecting Antique Meerschaum Pipes, is in a class by itself. Although Rapaport is the leading authority in this area, he primarily lets the pipes do the talking. Of the 176 pages, the first 50 contain the scholarly background which addresses the questions of how, who, why and where these pipes were created. But even in this section at least half of the pages are dedicated to wonderful photographs of pipes, old catalogs, craftsmen and workshops. The remainder of the book is an absolutely gorgeous album of some of the most beautiful and extraordinary meerschaum pipes ever sculpted. The photographs are large so that one may see the exquisite detail, and where appropriate the reader is provided with additional particularly detailed pictures. The photography is of exceptional quality, as one would expect to find in a first-rate art book. At the end of the book the author provides a compilation of the 19th and early 20th century manufacturers and sellers of these pipes organized by country and city, and an international listing of museums and shops where one might view some of these treasures today. It is hard to imagine that anyone other than Ben Rapaport could have created a book like this. The book brings together his many years of experience as an author and collector. But just as importantly he is known and respected by the many collectors who were willing to provide him with their pipes for inclusion in this collection. If you collect pipes, if you enjoy viewing small sculptures, if you are a fan of "working art," if you want to take a look into a small and not particularly well known world of master artists and craftsman of the late 19th and early 20th century then you owe it to yourself to buy this sumptuous book.

Well-written guide.......2007-05-17
This book is a well-written guide to using LaTeX for typesetting mathematics. A very nice feature is that it indicates which commands are from the AMSMath package (in case that package will be unavailable in your environment). I would imagine the book is especially useful if you are just getting started in LaTeX and don't know where to start. It covers a wider range of LaTeX than the AMSMath user's guide (although that user's guide has more depth with AMSMath features). The appendices are also very useful, with a list of common commands and characters and so on. Buy this if the AMSMath user's guide isn't enough.
good book.......2006-08-21
I have purchased more than five books about Latex. Even though I have not read all the chapters in this book, I think this book will be on my desk along with Lamport's book when I write papers in Latex.
Math Into LaTeX.......2006-07-13
A very nice intro book for those of you out there trying to put your write ups in Latex. This book has a good way of explaining things like how you can tackle the writing. I am really happy using this book.
An absolute must!.......2005-10-19
To review this book you don't need a lot of words: it is simply a must. Nobody interested in publishing articles on maths can live without this book.
Every topic is extensively covered and many examples are provided.
Nearly indispensable.......2005-02-04
I say "nearly" because pretty much everything in the book can be found on the web in some form or another. When I was a LaTeX beginner, though, I found it much easier to learn things from a book than by downloading lots of files and trying to sort through them or by bookmarking webpages. As a more experienced LaTeX user, I find it is sometimes handy to have a book with sticky-note markers you can flip to when you are trying to remember how to make the symbol you want instead of trying to look up a cheat sheet on the web. Good for beginners, and good to grow into, as I doubt you'll jump into BibTeX and indexes right away. I didn't, but I was glad to have those sections when I needed them. I am also glad to see that some material on PDF has been added in this edition, though I wouldn't be able to comment on it as my edition is older.
Compared to what I paid when I bought a previous edition, this is a steal for such a useful book.
