Sunshine satirist:Carl Hiaasen profile in the Guardian (great dig at Bush)
Here is my favorite part:

Despite the fact that he is an outspoken Democrat, Hiaasen's fans span the political spectrum. Bill Clinton regularly requests early copies of his novels and George Bush Sr recently wrote asking for some signed bookplates for his wife. Bush Jr has yet to ask for an autograph but "I'd be thrilled if he did because it would suggest he has a sense of humour - which would suggest that he has intelligence... But I'd bet the only fiction that boy reads is memos from Cheney."
