Book Description
Excerpt from Wit, Humor, Pathos and Parodies Kind reader: Should you have the temerity to tackle this book, please remember that the writer is an orphan, and whatever may be your ideas in regard to his sanity do not ventilate them, for they may ferment a revolution and cause the destruction of an irrespon sible human being. My reasons for writing this book is simply to show the community how much cheek a person can have and still escape the vigilance com mittee. I acknowledge my culpability and can plead no excuse. But should any of my few readers dis cover any latent spark of genius that is commendable, or unearth any thought that may be considered sensi ble, please consider it an error of the head and not of the heart and I disavow it. To the ladies and gentle men whose copied articles will make and embellish this volume, and especially to Bill Nye for his valuable contributions, I am truly grateful.
