About

The most common response I get to that title is: "You think that's funny?" The answer I'd really like to give you is the Joe Pesci answer: "Funny how? I mean, funny like I'm a clown, I amuse you?" But the answer I will give you (and Joe) is: Yes, I do, or I wouldn't have made it the title of this collection of short humorous essays, ludicrous lists, satirical stories and even (shudder) a couple parodic poems. Yes, the answer is Yes. There is only one other word I'd like to say about this collection: subtle. And that is the last time you will ever hear that word used in connection with this material. An ex-girlfriend once told me that I was like a 1,000 watt light bulb: very bright, but a little obnoxious. And I've been informed that my humor has a certain "je ne sais merde." I prefer to believe, however, that, like the blind man whose other senses are heightened to compensate for his lack of sight, my total lack of common sense or any sense of common decency has allowed my sense of to humor expand...occasionally so far as to exceed the boundaries of comprehension or appreciation of those poor souls born without a humor gland. Of course that is not you, despite what they all say about you behind your back. So, what the hell. Take a chance. Prove them wrong. You might just LYAO. What have you got to lose? Besides a couple hours of your valuable time. You know you'd just waste it watching TV anyway.
