Customer Reviews

This is THE funniest book i have ever seen

This is the stuff that makes Gary Larson and Jerry Seinfeld go "man, that was funny". If you HONESTLY think this book is for self-help, you need to delve deeper into the "self help" section. If you don't get the cartoons, don't feel bad. Many of you won't. (You don't get the Far Side half the time either, do you?)For the sick and twisted individuals out there, this book is definitely for you. I was saddened to see this book out of print and so hard to find. I've had my copy for years, and it has lost a couple of pages (the one with the Sausage Gravy Springs cartoon, good stuff)

Dealing With the Idiots in Your Life

This book is WONDERFUL. Irreverent, sick and so funny you have to read it in small doses. I wish it was more readily available. Definitely as good as the Far Side!

Pure Genius

It's simple. This is the funniest book in history. I doubled over in pain from laughing. Jim Benton is a sick, sick man who was blessed by God.

The funniest book I have EVER read!

This book is so good you'll wonder why it is so hard to find. When you see it, it'll smack you in the face (in a good way!) I had to xerox the entire book twice in order to pass on copies to my friends. It is a must buy! -but not for the prudish, easily offended, or just plain clueless.

One of the funniest books in history.

Jim Benton is a complete genius. I challenge anyone to make fun of nuns, mother-in-laws, or Elvis with more skill. I almost wet myself.
