Reviews
Kirkus Reviews , 4/15/12 "A fast, funny and informative stand-up routine/memoir from one of the major comic stars of the 1970s…A unique perspective on the perils of modern comedy from a survivor with a long memory." Publishers Weekly, 5/21/12 "A solid, thoughtful, and provocative memoir about [Walker's] nearly four-decade long career." Spittake.com, 6/27/12 "Without a healthy dose of humility, he couldn't draw such a painfully honest portrait of life as a comic on the road. Whatever his reputation, he has persevered, and his story is thought-provoking and well worth the read." Time Out Chicago , 6/20/12 "Black has…established himself as a precise and honest comic writer. Though as a comedian he trades in snark…his commitment to this project finds him earnestly engaging with the people he meets, and trying to find in them case studies for the larger political talking points." Washington Post , 6/19/12 "She is funny and uncensored, and he is witty and sharply observational." 20 Something Reads, 6/27/12 "Michael's writing bears his typical snarky cynicism, while Meghan's writing reflects her exuberance and zest for life…An excellent read and absolutely hilarious…Though it'll take much more than one book to fix America, Michael and Meghan show us that two very opposite people can find common ground, which gives us hope towards the future of Capitol Hill and American Politics." PR.com "The book's quirky title belies its enlightening content." The Interrobang, 6/21/12 "The book is incredibly funny, really honest, and full of heart and soul…Smart and funny, it's a great summer read that entertains as much as it forces you to think." PolicyMic.com, 6/20/12 "[Black] knows how to make you laugh; and yet, through his humor, he was able to convincingly communicate his liberal rationale with ease…Presents some interesting thoughts about politics and culture.", Kirkus Reviews , 4/15/12 "A fast, funny and informative stand-up routine/memoir from one of the major comic stars of the 1970s…A unique perspective on the perils of modern comedy from a survivor with a long memory."

Whatever his reputation, he has persevered, and his story is thought-provoking and well worth the read." Kingman Daily Miner "A dyn-o-mite read about a true pop culture icon and comedy legend...This is a fun read, a book, which you will remember, and one that might make you stop and pause for a moment as you ponder some of his pithy sayings. This is a five star book and one you will want on your bookshelf." American Profile , 8/12/12 "Paints a revealing self-portrait that also depicts the changing times of a socially charged era....It's a dyn-o-mite read." Cleveland.com, 10/2212 "[An] immensely insightful, humorous memoir."

Synopsis
Jimmie Walker was raised in a violent and abusive home in the Bronx. Starting in small clubs and eventually opening for Black Panther rallies, he ultimately became an icon playing J. J. Evans on Good Times . Walker was the first successful young black sitcom star, and his catchphrase--"Dyn-o-mite!"--remains an indicator of the era. He saw sudden and enormous fame in everything from comic books and a talking doll to pajamas, trading cards, a bestselling album, and TV Guide covers. In Dyn-o-mite! , Walker candidly talks about his rise and the considerable tensions on the set of Good Times that contradicted the show's image of a close-knit, blue-collar family struggling to survive in the projects. Walker made "Dyn-o-mite!" a catchword for the Baby Boomer generation. Today, Dyn-o-mite! will inspire that same generation to rediscover what once made America great--the freedom of thought, the freedom of speech, and the belief in the individual., Jimmie Walker was raised in a violent and abusive home in the Bronx.

    This seller is a gem. The item was described generally well, but had a few hiccups. The seller worked with me to ensure that the transaction went smoothly and was extremely helpful and forthright. I recommend this seller highly and praise the communication as well as the wonderful and ethical sales. The item was shipped promptly and was packaged well. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller in the future and encourage all buyers to find great values here. A+++

    I don't think I personally would use this seller again as I don't think the item photos quite reflected it's actual real-world status. The seller disagreed with this assessment. However, when I mentioned this the seller immediately offered me a refund so I can't complain. Also, the item arrived very quickly. Not a bad experience, these things happen and I am probably a bit more fastidious than most people.

    My purchase was two weeks overdue, so I contacted the seller. In less than two hours the seller contacted me to report the USPS lost the package. They apologized and issued a refund. I am extremely satisfied to their quick response and look forward to making a purchase from them in the future with this seller. They have my thanks.
