Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 546
Book Description
The New Yorker is, of course, a bastion of superb essays, influential investigative journalism, and insightful arts criticism. But for eighty years it’s also been a hoot. Now an uproarious sampling of its funny writings can be found in this collection, by turns satirical and witty, misanthropic and menacing. From the 1920s onward—but with a special focus on the latest generation—here are the humorists who have set the pace and stirred the pot, pulled the leg and pinched the behind of America. The comic lineup includes Christopher Buckley, Ian Frazier, Veronica Geng, Garrison Keillor, Steve Martin, Susan Orlean, Simon Rich, David Sedaris, Calvin Trillin, and many others. If laughter is the best medicine, Disquiet, Please! is truly a wonder drug.

Book Description
It was quite a task deciding on a title for this no sense, nonsense, makes no sense compiled literature over the past years. I decided on this simple title. Because of my attraction to quotations, to quips, witticisms; ad lib one liners, etc. Whatever was said or by circumstance read I stored them in the back of my mind. I jotted them down on whatever napkin, receipt or piece of paper that was handy. This came about during social conversations with friends, relatives, celebrities, politicians, whomever. Some are mere questions, some are in fact excerpts from my first book. “I don’t understand.” Credit was given to those I could. Not being aware of their “Off the Cuff” statements they bounced off my head as being funny, impactful, noteworthy, stupid or tone fully intellectual. I modified, twisted or extended most of them to my mindset as I was writing. For the most part all are my original quotes/writings and poems. If I were a baker I would describe my book as: 1 cup of wisdom 1⁄2 cup of knowledge 1 ounce of thought 1 pinch of reason 1 grain of stupidity or an “Downside Up Cake” BEWARE: Decipher book’s Littter-8-chewer carefully!!!! “A sam hamich and a coff a cupee”! Pick me up, put me down, pick me up, read me over and over again.
