Fashionable worries: if meat is murder, are eggs rape? -- Overpopulation: just enough of me, way too much of you -- Famine: all guns, no butter -- Environment: the outdoors and how it got there -- Ecology: we're all going to die -- Saving the earth: we're all going to die anyway -- Multiculturalism: going from bad to diverse -- Plague: sick of it all -- Economic justice: the hell with everything, let's get rich.
From angry chiggers in the jungles of Peru to irate coeds in Ohio, O'Rourke takes on the "fashionable worries" of the day.
