I LAUGHED until I nearly peed my pants when he read a story about his experiences in a mortuary.mslibertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00408513696371999732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25534844.post-13587588356976867412006-12-01T14:29:00.000-05:002006-12-01T14:29:00.000-05:00Joshua -- it kind of is, isn't it?

An even longer version of the essay "SantaLand Diaries" can be <a href="http://www.thislife.org/pages/descriptions/96/47.html">found here</a> on the radio program This American Life (a favorite of mine). The essay is also found in his books <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrel_Fever">"Barrel Fever"</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holidays_on_Ice:_Stories">"Holidays on Ice"</a> which include an even longer version than found in the TAL segment. I listened to "Holidays on Ice" on a drive home one Thanksgiving and it was hilarious to hear it on audio as Sedaris reads it (particularly some racy parts that were not included in the radio broadcasts).
