This embarrassing but funny tale is a 1983 excerpt from Reader's Digest's most
popular department and new book, "Life In These United States®." The first collection
of Life In These United States® was published in Reader's Digest in March of 1943.
Over the years, the department has become almost synonymous with the magazine, being
one of the first sections that readers turn to first. Now, Reader's Digest has assembled
some of the department's best selections from the past fifty years into the book, "Life In
These United States®." Inside the book you'll find true stories from people all across
America; funny, heartwarming, inspiring tales that will make you smile and think about
how we look at ourselves and the world around us. Although the contributors of the tales
come from different backgrounds and cultures, the stories that they share are ones that
we've all experienced (or are glad that we haven't!).

Pick up a copy of "Life In These United States®," put your feet up, and get ready to
spend an enjoyable hour or two reading! I know that I'll now chuckle every time that I
see the mailman!

Situations can make comedy and the differences in the U. S. population create many of them

In many cases, the best way to deal with difficult situations is by looking at it via a sideways glance through a humorous prism. That prism is provided by the stories in this book. The "Life in These United States" feature of Reader's Digest provides some true and often humorous appraisals of how life is lived in the United States. They cover everything from the unprecedented freedom in the country to situations that occur in everyday life. Some of them are classics, for example the standard joke of being asked about a mutual acquaintance, speaking negatively about that person and then being told that they or a relative is married to them.
Situations can make comedy and the wide differences in the citizenship of the United States create many different contexts for jokes. Many of those contexts are utilized in this book to make stories that illustrate some aspect of life in the U. S.
