Joke Soup: 1,217 of the Funniest Jokes from the Best Comedians3 reviews
Judy Brown

Andrews McMeel Publishing, 1998

Now this is STAND-UP!.....No 3 guys walk into a bar jokes!

+ Joke Stew provides a hardy laugh!
+ More Fun than a Barrel of Donkeys

We all know "Joke Books" suck. This is not one of those!These are compiled one liners of some big name, and not so big name comedians. They are categorized by subject well. I'm a comedy writter and aspiring comedian myself and this is a cant miss book, even if you're a Gallagher fan.

Rickles' Book: A Memoir80 reviews
Don Rickles

Simon & Schuster, 2008

Don's da man!

+ Don Rickles
+ Good read; sounds like him.

I bought this because I know Don. He is a bit under appreciated with the kids these days. Check out why he was so influential and why to be insulted by Don is an honor. He is a living piece of America history, entertainment and otherwise. He is also a very kind and very funny guy.

Jeff Rovin

Signet, 1990

Rocks

+ Keeps Kids Entertained
+ Fun Book, Great Price

This book is filled with Groaners. I like it a lot. A bit heavy on the Vampire and werewolf jokes, but you can still find some quality here. Good for kids or some classic eye rolls at a dinner party of adults.
