by H. Albertus Boli (Author) The sole purpose of this book is to give you, dear reader, something to read that will make you laugh, or at least smile. We hope that the selections here are different enough from the ones you have found in most superficially similar anthologies that you will find many surprises, and perhaps strike up friendships with some worthy writers whose names you have never heard before.
