The pleasure that results from the review is that hopefully folks will be persuaded to read the entire <A HREF="http://www.amazon.com/Something-Happened-Joseph-Heller/dp/0684841215" REL="nofollow">book</A>, a <A HREF="http://www.amazon.com/Catch-22-Novel-Simon-Schuster-Classics/dp/0684865130/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1219324672&sr=1-1" REL="nofollow">Catch-22</A> of office/suburban life.
