Subject: BS: The Worlds Shortest Books From: harlowpoet Date: 22 Jan 04 - 01:54 PM Though I'd start a fun thread, on the worlds shortest books. Here's some suggestions.

Subject: RE: BS: The Worlds Shortest Books From: Gern Date: 22 Jan 04 - 02:36 PM I've heard many of these that poke fun at various countries. Although this could easily turn offensive, which is not what I would want, some seem harmless to me. These would include: American Rules of Etiquette, French Military Strategies, Great Moments in British Cuisine, [Fill in the Blank] Table Manners, etc. And how about Banjo Players Who Belong to Mensa? The Wit and Wisdom of Dick Cheney? |

Subject: RE: BS: The Worlds Shortest Books From: Sam L Date: 27 Jun 04 - 03:03 AM i DON'T GET SOME OF THESE. The book of Irish sexuality, or Ulysses, by James Joyce. In fact, in the famous obscenity trial, the question of whether the book was unusually concerned with sex was dismissed by the judge because, well, they're celtic, and it's spring. And a book by Dylan about how he gets so much musicality out of his voice would be pretty interesting. But who am I to criticise. I don't have a short book. But since I've been facing going back to work full-time for health insurance, and there's a 90 day wait for benefits to start, I did think of checking out a copy of Around The World In 80 Days, and on the last page writing-- ...And then in ten more days the health insurance benefits kicked in. |
