Pat Cooper--How Dare You Say How Dare Me!
FOREWORD BY JERRY LEWIS Praise for Pat Cooper: "He's the comedian's comedian. I think."--Jerry Seinfeld "I'm one of his biggest fans."--Jerry Lewis "He's a great actor-comedian--but I'm not sure which one."--Robert De Niro "One of the funniest men on the planet . . . Venus."--Jason Alexander "I've never met a funnier man. Sure I have--it's me "--Billy Crystal Few comics today can say they have worked with the likes of George Burns, Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, and Bobby Darin--but Pat Cooper can. Born Pasquale Caputo, the legendary comedian didn't appear on the show business radar until age thirty-two. But from that moment in 1963, when the young smart-mouthed Brooklynite was beamed into millions of homes via the Jackie Gleason Show, people throughout the country knew that they were watching something special. His brash, irreverent, and undeniably hilarious views of what is happening around him have always been honest, unyielding, and colored by his "comedic anger." And now, in How Dare You Say How Dare Me , he shares the amazing, offbeat story of his life. In his unique no-holds-barred style, Cooper begins his story at the beginning--as a child growing up under the strict hand of Italian immigrant parents. He shares memorable, typically comical moments from his youth, including the loss of his virginity to a middle-aged yenta, and his efforts to join the military at age seventeen--only to be kicked out for having hammerhead toes A seventh-generation bricklayer by trade, Pat recounts performing his stand-up routine in small clubs and theaters at night--until he got his big break into the big time. From that point on, Pat pulls no punches in relating story after story of his life as a top entertainer, including the good, the bad, and the side-splitting From Las Vegas to Atlantic City and everywhere in between, it's all here. Every bit as brash, irreverent, and hilarious as ever, Pat Cooper proves in this very frank memoir that one can succeed in show business without being phony--just as long as you learn to duck, and you're not too surprised when you're fired. (Hey, one door closes and another opens.) Like any time spent with this comic genius in person, How Dare You Say How Dare Me will leave you roaring

In the history of the Southwest, Pat Garrett stood tall, both physically and in legend. He was more than just a famous western sheriff, more than the slayer of the legendary Billy the Kid. While on occasion his gun was for hire, and while he was sometimes known to protect special interests-particularly those of the cattle barons-more often than not Pat Garrett combined in his six-foot five-inch frame the good, honest, and honorable qualities that went to make up the lawman of the Old West.Garrett is, of course, immortal for his successful efforts to end the career of the Kid, but, as the author amply demonstrates, Garrett's career by no means ended on that hot evening in July, 1881, in Fort Sumner, New Mexico. Within days Garrett had established a reputation as an implacable foe of western criminals, a reputation that was to follow (and sometimes haunt) him for the rest of his life. He was an important figure in the frontier politics of Texas and New Mexico, and he rubbed shoulders with the great and the near great of the region.Through the story of Patrick Floyd Jarvis Garrett the panorama of the Southwest unfolds: its dreams, its courage, its explorations, its mistakes, its violence, its conquests, and ultimately its emergence as a settled society. No other character in southwestern history is more closely identified with the land and the people of America's last frontier.

More than twelve decades after Billy the Kid's death in 1881, books, movies, and essays about this western outlaw are still popular. And they all go back to one source: The Authentic Life of Billy, the Kid, published in 1882 by the man who killed Billy, Sheriff Pat Garrett.Frederick Nolan, an authority on the American Southwest, examines the legends introduced by The Authentic Life and shows how Garrett's book is responsible for misconceptions about the Kid's early life and his short, violent career. This edition, complete with the original text, corrects errors, amplifies Garrett's narrative, and elucidates the causes and course of the Lincoln County War in New Mexico during the 1870s. Nolan provides an introduction that reappraises the last, fatal meeting of Garrett and Billy the Kid, as well as a postscript about the sheriff's snakebitten life following the moment that made him famous.

Cowboy, army guide, farmer, peace officer, and character in his own right, John P. Meadows arrived in New Mexico from Texas as a young man. During his life in the Southwest, he knew or worked for many well-known characters, including William “Billy the Kid” Bonney, Sheriff Pat Garrett, John Selman, Hugh Beckwith, Charlie Siringo, and Pat Coghlan. Meadows helped investigate the disappearance of Colonel Albert Jennings Fountain, and he later bought part of downtown Tularosa, New Mexico, where he served a term as mayor.The recollections gathered here are based on Meadows’s interviews with a reporter for the Alamogordo News, a partial transcript of his reminiscences given at the Lincoln State Monument, and a talk he gave by invitation in Roswell, New Mexico, to refute inaccuracies in the 1930 MGM movie Billy the Kid.

This book is more important now (2024) in helping homeowners save serious money in their home construction than it was when first published. This is because the cost of home construction has gone from ridiculous to absurd. Homeowners are being charged $400 per square foot (sf) for a new 3,000 sf house when it should only cost $200/sf. This means that a 3,000 sf house costs $1.2 million when it should only cost $600,000. Why? Because homeowners do not know that there are alternatives to hiring a general contractor to manage their home construction project. Hiring a general contractor seems to be so ingrained in the homeowners mind that they do not realize there are alternatives. Having to use a general contractor is a myth and a real shame because then homeowners end up paying too much money for their new home resulting in years of excessive debt. When we built our 3,500 sf house in Seattle, Washington it cost $65/sf in 1994. That was when general contractors were charging about $120/sf for new construction. It was not difficult to build for less: just hard work. This book was written from the experiences learned in our home construction and from the author's engineering and construction background. The Pat Fay Method home construction management book teaches the homeowner how to manage their home construction projects themselves without a general contractor which can result in savings of up to $600,000 for a new 3,000 sf house. Or if doing the task yourself is too much for a homeowner then hire a professional engineer to mange you project according to the Pat Fay Method. Pay them 30% of what a general contractor will charge and you will still save up to $400,000. Buying this book for $40 may well be your best financial move ever. No homeowner should be without this book if they plan to build a new house, addition, or remodel. Go to or webpage to learn more. Patfaymethod.com
