5.0 out of 5 stars Smart Humor - Intelligiggles
It's rare that you find an author that creates a whole new genre of humor. Are the puns? Are the riddles? What the heck are they? They are just plain funny! Highly recommend having this somewhere where friends can pick up the book while you cook them a spaghetti dinner. It will make for excellent "mealtainment".

2.0 out of 5 stars too obscure
I would not recommend this book for most. You must be a total word freak to enjoy it, not a casual pun fan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't read while operating heavy machinery!, January 13, 2007

This review is from: The Smoking Pun: Crimes Against the Language (Paperback)
Brilliant and funny. Thaddeus Taylor is a lexicographical wizard.

You think you don't want to read a book about puns? Remember when you said you wouldn't like Douglas Adams because you don't read science fiction? You'll find yourself following people around reading this book aloud to them, choking with laughter.

Get it before someone else does.

1.0 out of 5 stars Ugh., October 31, 2008
This review is from: The Smoking Pun: Crimes Against the Language (Paperback)
This book is so horrible in every which way imaginable. There were a few semi-funny puns in this book, but that's it. Not worth the $2 I spent on it, and it's definitely not worth the shipping fees. I love puns, but this guy feels he has to explain his puns, which makes them even more unfunny. It's like this author got hit with the clueless stick, because if you love puns, you'd automatically get 'em without explanation. It's a shame that you can only rate this a minimum of one star.

This review is from: The Smoking Pun: Crimes Against the Language (Paperback)
Good book, good puns - some real funny. Not a whole lot of content but worth the price.
