Artie Lange

I'm just finishing reading Artie Lange's "Too Fat To Fish". It's been disturbing, poignant,sad, and hilarious.
I've heard him recount some of these stories before, and as well-written as the book was it was the first time I've felt like I'd prefer listening to the audiobook. He is an amazing storyteller, and somehow with his self-deprecating manner and laughter at his own predicament the stories of his degenerate lifestyle sound more ribald than sad when they're heard in his Rusty-the-Tin-Man voice.
