Friends,

We are only days away from the publication of my first book, "My Custom Van (And 50 Other Mind-Blowing Essays That Will Blow Your Mind All Over Your Face)." Is the book good? Stephen Colbert, THE Stephen Colbert said of it, "Michael Ian Black proves that even the most simple-minded among us can occasionally create works of genius." If that's not a ringing endorsement, I don't know what is. Sure, he basically called me retarded but he also said the book was genius. So there you go. How can you get the book before everybody else? Simple. All you have to do is click here and you will have it the moment, the very instant it hits stores.

Why am I making this exclusive offer to you? Because I love you. I love you with every fiber of my being. And also because for every copy of the book sold, I am going to donate five thousand dollars to orphans. Wow. So by buying this book not only will you be getting 51 essays with titles like, "How to Approach the Sensitive Question - Anal?" but you will also be putting five thousand bucks in the pocket of an orphan.

Let's make some orphans rich... together.

I'm regretting more and more ordering it along with "Lockdown America" for free shipping. Now I have to wait an extra week. But it will be a truely mind-blowing combo of your writing and a book about what is wrong with the police. It is the only logical combination of reading I can think of.

I'll expect thank you cards from those 2 orphans I've helped. And there better not be any porridge stains on the paper. ;-)

I don't know, some of those essays sound like they're dirty. I don't think I could handle it.

I don't know, man. I mean, Kevin Smith would've offered $5,000 to orphans AND an autograph on every book. I think I need you to kiss my ass just a tiny bit more.
I'll end up getting it anyway, but that's not the point.
Sweeten the deal, eh?

If yes, there will be another book sitting in my bedroom collecting dust soon.

they are selling your book together with David Sedaris in the special offer thingy... makes you go hmmmmm
By the way the real money is at The View. Go on the View to promote your book, then start a fight between Elisabeth and someone on the show, like Joy or Whoopi. It will be all over the news for weeks.

"I am going to fight Michael Ian Black

If you have been paying any attention at all to popular culture for the past decade, I am sure you know who Michael Ian Black is. If the name doesn't ring a bell, you almost certainly recognize his face, he is the only commentator on all those VH1 flashback shows who is actually funny, instead of just annoying.

Anyway, Michael has a new book out, and as a way to publicize it, he has challenged me to a fistfight. Here is what he said:


So Tucker Max, you drunk, misogynistic motherfucker - I am officially calling you OUT! I am going to fist fuck every hole in your boozy little body until you crawl away like the sniveling little bitch that you are. YOU'RE DEAD.
You can read the rest on his blog.

Michael, I have no problem helping you get the word out about your book (which I haven't read but hear is pretty funny). But there is price to pay for trying to publicize it on the back of my popularity:

I accept.

I'm completely serious. I'd LOVE to fight you.

I'll even promise to show up drunk as shit. I'll drink an unreasonable amount of alcohol before we fight--20 beers, 30 beers, whatever it takes to me plastered. And if you don't think I'm drunk enough, I'll keep drinking. As long as I am conscious and able to stand on my feet, I'll fight you.

And here's the kicker: If you beat me, I'll give you the next royalty check from my book. It should be about 150k, give or take agent fees and other things. I am completely serious.

We don't even have to make this a bet. You win, you get the money. I win, I get nothing (except the satisfaction of standing over your broken, bleeding body and drunkenly yelling at you, "GET UP YOU FUCKING PUSSY! GET UP AND FIGHT!," or something to that effect, since I'll be drunk I can't quite predict what my words will be, or that they will even be enunciated or understandable).

Email me and let's set the time and place: tuckermax@gmail.com

And just to be clear: This isn't personal. I think you are a funny comedian, and I really respect your work. I'd much rather kick the shit out of someone who deserves it, like Benji Madden or Brody Jenner. To that effect, I promise when I kick your ass, I'll do my best not to leave any permanent damage."

Please, please, please fight Tucker...and when he's standing over what's left of you, please astound us with more of your quick wit that we've come to love on the "I love the 80's" re-runs.
