1001 Funniest Things Ever Said

This is a very good book of funny quotes by famous people and entertainers. I am sure some of them you will have already heard before, when you start reading this book. The book is very well organized by the joke tellers, e.g.-professional comedians, Hollywood actors and actresses, sports figures, kids jokes, knock knock jokes, children's jokes and jokes about foreigners. If you give it a chance it will have you in stitches. It is important before you read this book to check your ego at the door. If you can't do that, then, I would suggest you not buy this book. If you can leave your existing bias outside your reading room, you will be up late at night reading this until you can't keep your eyes open anymore. I am sure future reviewers of this book will reconfirm this My only criticism is that I had a friend who when I told her some of the jokes about foreigners, she was offended at some of the jokes. Some of her observations might hold some weight, but I think she should have tried to just appreciate the humor and not insert her own biases when I told her those jokes. I found some of the children's jokes at times a bit hard to understand, probably because I had a bit of a "jilted" childhood. The alphabetical index in the back was fun to use to browse, when you want to break away from the way the book's jokes are arranged in their order. There was one whole Prairie Home Companion Joke Show that sounded like they had used this book's jokes as its basis. Even if all you do is buy this book to tell a joke to your wife before you go to bed, it is worth the buy. It might not save your marriage, but you're both a lot more likely to remain friends during the divorce if you covertly use it on your spouse occasionally, just before, during and after the proceedings. So relax, cut lose and enjoy the read. It is a good one. Last point; If this book doesn't loosen you up as a person, go seek some professional mental help, and start taking seriously some of those observations your significant other has been telling you during the last few months.

Your friends will think your the funniest person on the planet when you start spouting off hundreds of these hilarious quotes. You can even be funny alphabetically, if you work from front to back.
