What do Canadian Evangelicals, stupid pelicans, and the Associated Press have in common? All are all mercilessly lampooned for the sake of comedy inWhere There's a Will, There's Away? Messages: A 21st Century Guide to the Art of Absence, a book that explores the limits of the Away Message as a vehicle for shameless amusement. Each page features a different Message, gathered into curious subcategories such as, ?Fun with Advertising,? ?It's A Thinker,? and ?Religious Shmreligious.'
