Rating: Summary: I laughed until I couldn't breathe... Review: Remember the Python routine about a "killer joke?"This book came close to being a collection of such jokes. Nearly every story made me, and several of my friends, laugh until we almost couldn't breathe. Over twenty five years later, it still has the same effect. (GET THIS BOOK BACK IN PRINT!)

Rating: Summary: A rare book with wonderfuly wicked and wild British humor. Review: Terry Jones and Michael Palin have created a wonderful little tome of humor here. You will learn things like nursery rhymes that will put your screaming kid to sleep, FEGGISM (a religion), cooking wonderful dishes like the "Everything Pie" or "Third World War Pizza", a wonderful game called PLAGUO, and finally a wonderful play called "Aladdin and His Terrible Problem" with the Rev. Wishiee Washiee and Pisso the Alcholic Dog who is Aladdin's best and only freind. Over all this is a classic tome of British wit that I keep secured in an undergroud vault guarded by no less than two trained "Ferocious Amazonian Killer Skunks" that are trigger happy.

Rating: Summary: Why No Booker Prize for Dr. Fegg? Review: While many people claim to know Dr. Fegg personally, I write with complete probity when I state Dr. Fegg is, indeed, a close personal friend of mine. We first became acquainted ten years ago when Dr. Fegg sacked his then-literary agent Ms. Esther Scallop. Amazed by my vast knowledge of the publishing industry, as well as my knowledge as to the whereabouts of Ronald Biggs, Dr. Fegg hired me to promote his work. In this particular tome (don't you just love the word 'tome?'), my favourite bits are "Crossing the Andes By Frog," and the frightfully clever pantomine entitled, "Aladdin and his Terrible Problem." It is astounding that Dr. Fegg has thus far escaped nomination for the Booker Prize. He has more talent in the tip of his pinkie than V.S. Naipul has within his entire being. Please buy this book. Royalty money comes in handy. If you can't buy it, hunt down someone who owns it and steal it from them. Chances are they will not give it up without a fight so it is recommended that you bring a pair of brass knuckles or a can of mace. Good luck!
