I've heard swimmers called tankers.

I meant to mean it's funnier the second time

Might be the funniest book you ever read, until you read it a second time. That graph is in the beginning of the book. I memorized it

Manny being A-Rod?

Seabiscuit was a great read. I learned all I know about horse racing from it.

We had a MENSA member on our copy desk. But I don't know how anyone found out. The guy never said a word for 10 years.
