Another one of those "unfortunate book titles leads to funny Amazon reviews" things *snort*→[More:]via Neil Gaiman's blog, no less.

Brightened my (once again, SNOWY) Tuesday, anyhow.

Hilarious. Most of the reviews are so well-written, too.

I love how Amazon lists the book title as Penetrating Wagner's "Ring" with the quotes around the word ring.

Hopefully not during the Ring cycle.

I was going to post a review.

But a gentleman does not blab about such matters afterward on the intertubes.

He sends flowers instead.

Fools! Wagner's vengeful spirit will kill us all, exactly seven days after laughing at these reviews!

Absolutely hilarious! I'm dying over here!

Although the man himself is no longer with us, his Ring will remain in the memory of all those who have previously admired it.

This is probably my fave quote. . .I am laughing, but my homophobe office mate would just not get it, if I tried to explain.
