That's Funny: A Compendium of Over 1,000 Jokes From Today's Hottest Co

Book Review by: CatherineGallagher     

Original Authors: Lisa Jenner Hudson (editor); Genevieve Field (editor); Jake Morrissey (editor); Dorothy O'Brien; Regan Brown
This book is a true feast of comedy. There are jokes froom headliners of the 1990s, movie and television favorites, club
comics and living legends from around the United States. The jokes are short (from one sentence to a short paragraph); and they are very, very funny. There are jokes about sex, religion, parents, kids, food, drink, politics, age, diets, exercise, sports, and much, much more. Once you start reading, it's almost impossible to stop. And it's laughing-out-loud, gut-busting funny. Bored or depressed? Meet the cure!
Some of the comics whose jokes are included are Robin Williams, Judy Tenuta, Henny Youngman, Paula Poundstone, Jon Stewart, Lily Tomlin, Sindbad, Jerry Seinfeld, Richard Pryor, Roseanne Dennis Leary, Woody Allen, Jay Leno, Bill Cosby, and many, many more.
At the back of the book, there is also an annotated list of all the comics whose jokes are included here, as well as a nationwide list of comedy clubs. For a laugh a day, ration yourself -- but you won't be able to.
