Popular beliefs & controversial knowledge; Humour

The distinguished statesman of stand-up comedy tackles some of the biggest conspiracies and cover-ups this side of Roswell.

""A must-read . . . You gotta love the Belz. . . . His sharp sense of humor doesn't allow him to miss an opportunity for laughs.""-Playboy

I'm not asking you to believe every single conspiracy theory you find in this book. . . . I didn't write this book to give you all the answers. I wrote this book to inspire you to do what the powers that be wish you wouldn't- question authority . . . and to keep an eye out for Elvis

Just what is it that they don't want you to know about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, Area 51, and what the American astronauts really found on the moon? The unexplained crash at Roswell and the mysterious ""face"" on Mars? The link between the Nazis and the U.S. space program? Evidence of extraterrestrial experimentation?

Finally, one lone ""nut"" exposes the conspiracy to keep conspiracies a dirty little secret, standing up to the shadowy forces that would have us believe that Oswald acted alone, those lights in the sky are weather balloons, and fluoridated water is good for you (yeah, right). ""Some of the smartest people I know . . . find it easier-and certainly more comforting-to believe that America is the only country on earth with no conspiracies at all."" Just remember- do not ask on whom The Belz has told-he's told on them.
