Summary "101 reasons to laugh out loud. If laughter is the best medicine, then this book is your prescription. Turn off the news and spend a few days not following current events. Instead, return to the basics -- humanity's ability to laugh at itself. Maybe you should even do a news cleanse for a few days! Hide under the covers and read these stories instead. Or read a chapter a day, or a story a day for 101 days. These pages contain the antidote to whatever is troubling you. They will definitely put you in a good mood. No one is safe from our writers -- from spouses to parents to children to colleagues and friends. And of course the funniest of all are the stories they tell about their own mishaps and those "most embarrassing moments." There's no holding anything back in these pages, so prepare for lots of good, clean (and not so clean) fun." -- Back cover.
