Author 42: Whoopi Goldberg Manners in comedy form

There are some good reviews of Whoopi's Big Book of Manners at Amazon. We thought it was a funny take on manners and we understood the references to manners in other countries at the back such as burping in some countries or slurping your food. In Germany it is considered rude to say you are full at the end of the meal-you are satisfied not full. And you'd never say I ate like a pig in Germany since calling anyone a pig-even yourself is (or was at least a number of years ago) considered very rude.
