"That big Ten Commandments monument has been removed from the courthouse in Alabama. It's been replaced, I believe, with eight simple rules for dating my daughter."

—David Letterman

About his Columns

"W. Bruce Cameron is the Dave Barry of modern family life."

—John Temple, Editor & President
Rocky Mountain News

"It makes my day when Bruce's column comes in, because it gives me something FUN to read. Slogging through lists and advice columns can be pretty tedious. His writing always make me laugh. It's good therapy, laughter, and it's said it heals the body and mind.. So in a way, Bruce is something of a mental-heath-care worker, or a doctor or...awww, no he's not. He's just a goofball."

—Maria Cote, Editor
Rocky Mountain News

"W. Bruce Cameron is the perfect antidote for a Blue Monday. You can get up, shower and read a column or two and the next thing you know the world isn't such a bad place to be after all."

—Walter Veazey, Features Editor
Scripps Howard News Service

"It's rare to read a columnist who is so consistently laugh-out-loud funny! Bruce Cameron is a master of humorous dialogue and can make virtually any topic funny — from wrong numbers to ethics. His writing is crisp and tight. Bruce sets up his jokes quickly and packs a huge number into a column."

—National Society of Newspaper Columnists

The National Society of Newspaper Columnists voted W. Bruce Cameron the #1 humor columnist for 2003.

"I save Bruce Cameron's columns in anticipation of arguing with a future wife over if and when we should have children. I figure they'll help me postpone the inevitable — at least for a few minutes as she reads them."

—Zach Everson

"When I was a teenaged daughter, I fantasized about hilarious, immensely talented, best-selling authors like Bruce Cameron. Now, I'm reduced to simply writing about them."

—Kristen Twedt Online for Humor

"8 Simple Rules is not about daughter control, it's about bladder control. Put on a Depends, and safely begin hysterical laughter. In Brucespeak, children are supposed to laugh out loud taking your guidance. You're the father."

About his Speaking

"Bruce had all the Junior League women in stitches! He's a talented writer and quick witted guy who's time has finally come. If you want a true entertainer for your function, Bruce is different than ANY speaker I've listened to in 20+ years of business and fun! Everyone's endorphins were definitely working overtime after Bruce kept us laughing from start to finish."

—Sudy Hurst, Junior League, Kansas City

"As co-chair of the 2003 Illinois Organization of Mothers of Twins Clubs Convention, my co-chair and I had a daunting task: Find a keynote speaker who could talk about multiple birth issues and be funny about it. In Bruce
Cameron we got it half right. Bruce doesn't have twins, but he does have kids. His humorous take on surviving the teenage years kept us laughing for more than an hour; some of our parents of teenage multiples laughed so
hard, they literally cried. As a mom of not-yet-teenage twins, I was relieved to see that you can muddle through those teenage years with your sense of humor intact. Bruce's clearly works fine. We had many compliments
from our membership on the keynote address, so obviously we made the right choice!"

—Holly Brooks, 2003 IOMOTC Convention Co-Chair
