Spend a (relatively short) evening with Gary Janetti (we all have television to get home to) as he reads essays from his bestselling books "Do You Mind If I Cancel?" and "Start Without Me" and answers questions from the audience (and hopefully has entertaining responses). He will be highly caffeinated and his energy burst, if timed correctly, should take him through the entire evening (if not, he apologizes in advance).
