For Gloria Hunter, everyday life is about learning, loving, and laughing. From more than 400 "As I See It" columns she has written for Connecticut's Westport Minuteman, readers have selected those featured here in Who Invited These Tacky People Anyway? Humorous, perceptive, informative, the stories range from running for State office (and losing by a hair), to investing in an oil well, to receiving pre-approved credit cards for a cat. Called "an extraordinary take on ordinary living," this book is a must read for all of us who take our lives one day at a time and with a grain of salt."
