"All the book consists of are the following... Tom did a lot of drugs...He slept with women...He's one of the "original" hippies...He partied with Jerry Garcia and followed the Grateful Dead around...He did more drugs...He occasionally wrote a sketch and did some comedy with some guy named Al...More drugs...Started out bitter, and grew more bitter...Partied with famous people...Did drugs with famous people...Wrote another sketch...Did some bad film work...Then wrote this book."
