If anyone fancies a bit of light reading to chase the general election blues (and reds and yellows) away then may I suggest the books of Kinky Freidman?
If you don't already know Richard "Kinky" Freidman was singer with the Texas Jewboys, an irreverant C&W band from Texas. Yes, they were all Jewish. Sample lyric: "They aint making Jews like Jesus anymore/They aint gonna turn the other cheek like they did before".
He then went on to write off the wall gumshoe novels with him as the private dick. Very funny. Try "A Case of Lone Star" or "Elvis, Jesus and Coca-Cola". Both good introductions to his works.
