5.0 out of 5 stars
The book is hilarious.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Deep Thoughts (Paperback)
I've been suffering from clinical depression, and a fellow patient lent me a copy of this book. From the very first page I was laughing out loud -- and I kept on laughing all the way through. It had been a long time since I had really laughed at anything, but this book really did the trick. I think you have to have a penchant for a certain kind of humor to enjoy the book. I could imagine some people not "getting it", so to speak, or finding it just plain silly. But for me, it really hit the funny bone, and I know it has for others, too. Buy it! It's only a few bucks, and the laughs you might get from it far outweigh the risk of wasting your money.

This book is a driving hazard!,
By Andrea L. Hudson (Swedesboro, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Deep Thoughts (Paperback)
Funny story. I was about 27 and my mom and I went to our favorite book store in the mall. She was in one section, I was in the humor section. I love Jack Handey and so I saw this book and began leafing through it. I was in hysterics in the middle of the store. I embarrassed my mom, who told me she'd buy me the book to read later, if I would just stop reading it now. I muffled a giggle and said "fine". We get in the car and we are driving back to my mom's house and as we are traveling down the road, I find my Deep Thoughts and start reading them to myself. I was laughing so very hard that I was crying real tears. So hard that I ended up with my head in my mom's lap and my mom trying to control the car and make it to the side of the highway. Funniest things I've ever read were authored by Jack Handey. Love him!

Endless Laughs,
By
This review is from: Deep Thoughts (Paperback)
This book rocks. It is so funny! It's one of those books that you could read over and over again and never get tired of. It will crack you up every time. And it's a great book just to keep out in the living room somewhere so that when people come over they can start reading the "thoughts" out loud for everyone to laugh at. The thoughts are things like: "They say that God lives inside us. Well, I hope He likes enchiladas, because that's what He's getting!" If you need some more laughs in your life, this book could help you with that.
