    By the way, my mom thinks that the kid on the cover with the bubble gum is the most adorable thing ever. Don't you agree?

    It's a compilation of essays in which the authors talk about their love of G.I. Joe and how the brand impacted their lives. It is heartwarming, genuine, and is rumored to bring those who buy it uncanny luck, legendary virility, and vast wealth.
