  A humorist whose column appears in the Denver Rocky Mountain News Sunday edition and in other papers nationwide, W.Bruce Cameron is a genuine Internet phenomenon. What started as an e-mail to six people in 1995 today reaches a passionate audience that numbers in the hundreds of thousands, and his essay 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter is arguably the most popular humour piece ever published on the Web. A very funny writer on the very tricky relationships between fathers and teenage daughters, Cameron begins with the warning signs that you may be living with a teen (No 5. Your car insurance suddenly costs more than your car). He continues with The Telephone (seemingly wired to your teenager's nervous system); The Mall and how to escort your daughter to it without revealing that she has parents; Braces, the costliest metal on earth; Parties; and, of course Dating, featuring the eight simple rules. Rule Number One: If you pull into my driveway and honk, you'd better be delivering a package, because you're sure as heck not picking anything up. Filled with dead-on dialogue between father and daughter, 8 SIMPLE RULES offers lasting comic relief.
