Whoever selected the jokes for this book really knows what's funny. The title means "laugh out loud" and I did on a number of occasions. In fact, my wife wanted to know why I was laughing in the bathroom. Some of the introductions to the various chapters are almost as funny as the jokes themselves. I recommend this book for anyone who likes to laugh -- and who doesn't?

EVERYONE HAS BEEN CONNECTED TO A JOKE LIST ONLINE, YOU KNOW THE JOKES YOU READ AND SEND WHEN YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE WORKING. THE TROUBLE IS,MOST OF THESE JOKES ARE EITHR LAME, OR SO OLD, YOUR GRANDFATHER KNEW THEM. THE GREAT THING ABOUT THIS BOOK IS THAT THE LAME AND SENSELESS ONES ARE ELIMINATED AND THE GOOD ONES ARE CATAGORIZED. ALOT OF THEM ARE TIMELY, SUBJECTS THAT WE CAN ALL RELATE TO. I REALLY ENJOYED THIS BOOK, AND IT IS GREAT TOILET READING MATERIAL.

This by far is the best joke book I've come across. Once I started reading, I couldn't put it down. I laughed so hard my cat started looking at me funny!

Bravo Steve & Patty for a job exceptionally well done.Dividing the book into chapters is great - makes joke telling so much easier. Can't wait til the next volume comes out!

If you consider laughing a pastime, this book is "the ticket". LOL: The Humor of the Internet is by far one of the funniest books I've read in a long time. The chapter on Religion is hysterically funny and quite introspective in an odd sort of way. Hot Tip: for those of us (oops!, I mean you) who suffer from irregularity, this book makes the time pass (even if nothing else does) so beautifully. You hardly realize that a whole half hour has gone by. It's the perfect gift for the person that has everything.

A definate must read!

I not only laughed out loud, but sometimes till the tears rolled. LOL is the perfect antidote for a gloomy mood and it's a great bottle-of-wine alternative for hostess gifts. I heartily recommend it for everyone with a vital funny-bone.

A great collection of really funny jokes! It's a perfect gift for anyone with a sense of humor. I love a good joke... now I can even tell one without forgetting the punch line. It's perfect to take on a car trip or have at a party. Keep the humor alive...

So many e-mail jokes come my way that I now delete them before I read them, thus missing the good ones with the bad. Not to worry! Steve and Patty Marshall have solved the problem with their excellent collection. My husband was chuckling while he read several pages, and began to read out loud to me. Unfortunately, I'd recently had oral surgery, and I was laughing so hard I had to ask him to stop!

From a psychiatric perspective this book is so offensive and crude that all will feel offended.In short there is equal opportunity humor for all. Do not read this book if you do not enjoy laughing At last we can say that the Internet has a personality, and it is disordered!

I was surprised to find I really *was* laughing out loud reading this collection. I've been on the Internet from its early days, and on BBSes (Bulletin Boards) before that. I thought I'd read every joke possible to be e-mailed. But many of these were new even to me. Steve and Patty obviously have a real knack for ferreting out great humor. I can't wait for volume 2!

This is a collection of those jokes I love but can never remember the next day. Offensive, crude, coarse -- there is something here to offend everyone! I love it! If you buy this book and don't laugh -- you're dead -- or a member of some group who take themselves way too seriosly.
