If you don't mind books that are over 100 years old, you are bound to find something you like at the site above. I've grown fond of the style of expression used by many of the authors of yesteryear... If I could just choose *one tool* I'm pretty sure I would choose the book. Being able to share a thought with someone from far away, from a different time and place, impresses the hell of out me when I think about it. And none of the books don't have trolls in them unless you want them there! ; ) Bill |

Some folks turn 'em on a lathe super fast... ouch,ouch,ouch Awe, I'm just trying to keep you amused. To lots of high-schoolers,a hyperbole is known as a hyperbowl, not to be confused with a superbowl, superball, a hyperball, a hyperbole or hyperbowling, as I'm doing here---oops, that's a metaphor....

(Thank you, GWB!) A&C = ouch. Jim Carey = ouch. 3 Stooges = ouch. Chris Rock = ouch. Ben Stiller = ouch. Old SNL skits = laugh. Jeff "I keel you!" Dunham = laugh. Redd Foxx = laugh. George Carlin = laugh until tears. Keep your Kostello, Kid. I mostly watch A&C with "yesterday's eyes", sort of like trying to respect one's elders. I think they have plenty to teach. On your list, I like Dunham the most--my wife does Peanut imitations! -- Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplacable spark.
