    2/3

    A collection of short stories normally would not be that entertaining, but what theseeditors found was a collective theme of funny humor, which partners can read to eachother and enjoy a rib-tickling guffaw. Some are corny as all get out, but as you pagethrough and find others, you ignore the shortcomings.

    A review that ignores these two love poems would be incomplete. After reading them tomy wife, we both had a hearty laugh!

    A poem by woman

    Before I lay me down to sleep,I pray for a man, whos not a creep,

    One whos handsome, smart and strong,

    One who loves to listen long,

    One who thinks before he speaks,One wholl call not wait for weeks,

    I pray hes gainfully employed,When I spend his cash, wont be annoyed,Pulls out my chair and opens my door,

    Massages my back and begs to do more,

    Oh! Send me a man wholl make love to my mind,Knows what to answer to how big is my behind?

    I pray that this man will love me to no end,

    And always be my very best friend.

    A poem by man

    I pray for a deaf-mute gymnast nymphomaniac with huge boobswho owns a bar on a golf course, and loves to send me fishing and

    drinking. This doesnt rhyme and I dont give a d---.

    By John Philipp
