5.0 out of 5 stars A truly funny humor book, October 12, 1997

This review is from: America Off-Line: The Complete Outernet Starter Kit (Paperback)

Lots of humor books out there but most aren't funny. This one is hilarious -- and the humor is sustained throughout. This is the sort of book you keep quoting to someone ("hey, listen to this") while they're reading their newspaper and ready to kill you. I enjoyed it so much I found it difficult to put it down so I could return to checking my mail on AOL. Paulette Cooper
