Overview

Great jokes not only make us laugh – they make us think. They very often contain important pieces of wisdom and insight that we are more willing to hear when they're delivered with a laugh. Life Is a Joke includes 100 hilarious jokes along with the messages that you may or may not realise they carry. For instance, a joke about a tribal mystic and the weather service becomes a pointed parable about being very careful in choosing which experts to trust (or vote for). A joke about a therapist and his patient offers an invaluable insight about the vital importance of open communication. A salesman, a clerk, and a manager find a magic lamp – and learn that whoever speaks first doesn’t necessarily win. A great gift, and a great resource for those in search of anecdotes to use in speeches (these jokes come with the explanation preloaded), Life Is a Joke is an invaluable reminder that laughter is not only the best medicine – it’s often the best teacher, as well.
