Learn about the Curse of the Pyramids, and see the many unfinished pyramids that litter America"s heartland. Jump into the debate about which town has the largest ball of string, the biggest tree stump, or America"s true weather-forecasting groundhog. The locations of giant statues of the Jolly Green Giant, an "African village" in South Carolina claiming to be an independent kingdom, and the mysterious "Thing" of the Sonoran Desert are all found here. Buy it and drive west, young trendies.
