Summary: 5 Stars
With this little gem sitting on your shelf,you'll never have to say,"Oh,I just can't remember jokes".
Jeff Rovin comes to your rescue with a joke about any subject you can imagine.Not only does he give us 1001 jokes ,he covers the gamut ,so if you're looking for something suitable for or about the school,or one for or about the guys at the bar;you'll find one here.He also has come up with a novel method of showing where jokes can be found of a similar theme in the book.
Just to prove the point,a couple of my favorite things are birds,Rubik's Cubes and books,so here goes;
"Mary walked into the pet store and,after looking up and down the aisles,asked the proprietor for help.
'I'd like a box of birdseed,'said the lady.
'For what kind of bird?'he asked helpfully.
'Oh,I dunno,'the strange woman replied,
'Whichever will grow the fastest'.
"Q: What goes,Click,click,click click,did I get it?
Click,click,click,click,did I get it?
A: A blind person playing with Rubik's Cube."
"I don't know," the world- famous novelist said to his
editor."I just don't think my newer books are as good as
my earlier works."
"Rubbish," the understanding editor replied,"your writing
is the same as it ever was,It's your taste that's
improved."
Now if puns are your thing,he's got them too;
"Then there was the Happy Trails Recreation Camp,which
posted this sign after Labor Day:
'Clothed for the Winter'"
Now don't get the idea all the jokes are as corny as these,
for the really sizzling ones,you'll have to check out the
book.The book has 351 pages and half of them wouldn't pass the
Amazon Litmus Test.If you really want to have some fun;put a
cover on the book,read it and laugh as you travel on the
bus,train or plane.It's particularly helpful if you're
looking for a little exra elbow room.
