Overweight comedians are often stereotypically thought to be addiction-prone, larger than life characters who hide behind laughs to achieve some sense of self-worth. Any fan of "The Howard Stern Show" knows that Artie Lange falls into this pigeonhole, and his new book Too Fat to Fish strengthens the claim.

The Kulovacs traveled more than 5,000 miles from Sarajevo, Bosnia, to finally reach that bridge eight years ago. But more than the distance, they survived three years on the front lines of the brutal Bosnian War, which lasted from 1992 to 1995.

It's hard enough to find love. Most people begin their quest for companionship nonchalant, in bars, clubs and concerts. A few people find their special someone in grocery store aisles. Others stumble upon their mates online or through blind dates. Few have tried to discover their soulmates by contacting each and every one of their former lovers.

Devin Ferguson sits in an art-covered room, diligently doodling into a sketchbook he has set down on a leather lounge chair that looks like it belongs in the office of a prominent dentist. In a way, Ferguson's career is similar to that of a dentist: every day, he stands above clients who willingly experience pain to somehow better themselves.
