Let Me Off at the Top
Let Me Off at the Top: My Classy Life and Other Musings | Ron Burgundy
9 posts | 5 read | 1 reading | 1 to read
The autobiography every true American has been waiting for: a shockingly candid and raw confessional from a national treasure. From his humble beginnings in a desolate Iowa coal mining town, his years at Our Lady Queen of Chewbacca High School to his odds-defying climb to the dizzying heights of becoming America’s most trusted and beloved television News Anchor, Ron Burgundy pulls no punches in Let Me Off at the Top! In his very own words Burgundy reveals his most private thoughts, his triumphs and his disappointments. His life reads like an adventure story complete with knock down fights, beautiful women and double-fisted excitement on every page. He has hunted jackalopes with Bobby Kennedy and Peter Lawford, had more than his share of his amorous exploits, and formed the greatest on-air team in the history of televised news. Along the way, he hobnobbed with people you wish you knew and some you honestly wish you didn't -- celebrities, presidents, presidents' wives, celebrities' wives, dogs, and, of course Veronica Corningstone, the love of his life. Walter Cronkite, Barbra Streisand, Katie Couric, the list goes on. Who didn’t Mr. Burgundy, or “Ron” as he is known to his friends, rub elbows with in the course of his colorful and often criminal life? This may well be the most thrilling book ever written, by a man of great physical, moral and spiritual strength and not surprisingly a great literary talent as well. This book deserves a real shot at a Pulitzer Prize. In fact if it doesn’t win one then we will finally have proof that the Pulitzer is rigged. Ron Burgundy has taken the time to write a book. We owe it to him, as honest Americans, to read it.

Ron Burgundy. Enough said.

I was locked in a room with a small girl one time who started to speak backward. I nearly fainted but summoned the courage to try to kill her. I was moving toward her with that intent when the child's mother entered the room and stopped me. She explained to me that they were from Poland and the child was trying to talk to me in Polish. I guess they speak backward in Poland.

They have the most sumptuous and amazing breakfast buffets in Vegas. If you've never been to one you are simply an idiot, an idiot to your friends and family and an idiot in the eyes of God. If there was a higher form of idiot, like a circus idiot's illegitimate child with an idiot donkey, then that would be you.

If women are going to keep having these gross little meatballs I think we need to start thinking about social engineering of some kind. Calm down. Not Nazi-type stuff but just simple common sense. We could set up a tribunal of judges and decide which babies need to be shipped off to England, where there never have been good-looking babies. We can have this whole country looking beautiful and fresh in no time.
