“
Well, if you ever thought people in the oil and gas business have
no sense of humor, we are about to change that idea with our special
guest Bill Dutcher, who has written a book called Fictoids… which
frankly is the funniest collection of one-liners that I think I’ve
ever read. We’ve been passing this thing through the radio
station and laughing our heads off.
“Well, it’s a wonderful book. And if you ever decide
to get out of the oil and gas business and want to go into writing
one-liners, I’m sure Jay Leno would love to have you on staff.”
- Bob Langstaff, WAMV-AM, Roanoke, Virginia
“This is a good book. Very humorous. I’ve
been reading over the book here, and it looks like a lot of fun.
It looks like
you must have had fun writing it.”
- Adam Kirschner, WIOD, Miami, Florida
“It’s wonderful. It’s very quick, and it’s
very witty.
“It’s very, very funny, Bill. And good luck with the
sales of this book. Hopefully, we can talk to a few people, because
anybody that talks to me, I’m going to tell them it’s
a funny book. It’s a funny book.”
- Chris Merril, KLZR, Kansas City, Missouri
“And your language is just hilarious here. Pseudocide: a
fake suicide. A futility infielder is a utility infielder who can’t
throw straight. Self-umemployed: someone who’s out of work
by choice. This is going to be a lot of fun.
“And it is a fun book. It’s a fun project. Keep up
the good work …”
- Greg Marsten, WXCE-AM, Minneapolis, Minnesota
“ Well, this looks like a fun book to give to somebody as a stocking
stuffer or just an extra added present for Christmastime. Nice
stuff.”
- Hoot Hooten, KSMA-AM, Santa Maria, California
“
Boy, howdy, this is a cool book. It’s called Fictoids. It’s
a new word in my vocabulary.
“Boy,
man, you really got a unique niche here. What a great idea, Bill.”
“This is great stuff. The book is out now. It’s Fictoids,
and it’s widely available.”
- Tron Simpson, KCMN, Colorado Springs, Colorado
“Fictoids, it’s a great book, it’s
a lot of fun and it will make you laugh or at least help you
get through
the cares of the day.
“And I’ll
tell you what, folks. That is a great book.”
- Larry Wright, WEOL, Cleveland, Ohio
“Loved
the book. It was funny.
“I had the book here. It was on Saturday afternoon. I was
reading some of them and our producer who comes in on Saturday
afternoons was just in hysterical laughter because he’s also
a history buff. And he really enjoyed the ones I was reading to
him. And it’s wonderful when people can get a laugh like
that. I just think it’s fabulous.”
“ … it’s a great book and it’s certainly
a way to get a laugh. I found a number of them in the ones that
I read. And I didn’t get to them all, but I plan on keeping
the book near me so I can.”
“I suggest that if you’re looking for something funny,
you want to get Bill Dutcher’s Fictoids. And it might make
a great Christmas gift, giving the gift of making people laugh.”
- Paul Roberts, WNTN-AM, New England
“Well, it really is a funny book and really just a funny
look at life and getting people to laugh, because some say we don’t
laugh as much as we should.”
-- Stephanie Ross, KRES-FM, Columbia, Missouri
“
It’s a fun book. Kind of a spin on the factoids that we are
fed all the time…spoofing the factoid craze a little bit … to
make a humorous book.”
-- Jim Lenz, WQUB-FM, Regional NPR, Illinois
