Mirth of a Nation

Post by AHMETxRock »

A large collection of satire essays on various aspects of American life. I read one myself and love it, I could show you a scan on the one I have read.
Anyone heard of it? Anyone think they might be interested in getting it? It's was apparently sold for 2 dollars during a sale.

I think I'll buy it and give you guys exerpts if it tickles your fancy.

Normally, I have to pay 20 bucks for someone to tickle my fancy.

The title is certainly a draw, I must say.

Bah, I should actually supply some of the texts, now, shouldn't I? If there is one person that wishes to read, I shall reach out to them.

If not, I will let it die.

I wouldn't be against it, if you want to put the time into doing it.

If you feel it is worth sharing, then go ahead. I'm interested.

I scanned the pages on Adobe 8.0, which is not on my laptop as of yet apparently. How do I show you the PDF image?

I'm pretty sure attachments are allowed in certain sub-forums, but I'm not sure which. Posting it there might work.

Once again, I must depend upon myself for my own awesomeness. I should have seen it coming, to be honest. I'd be a bit dissappointed in myself if I didn't always come through in the end.

Caution, large and annoying pictures that will inevitably stretch out this post to untollerable lengths. I don't know your fancy smancy coding, but I made this thread for this book, so too bad for you! Nyeh Nyeh Nyeh.

Reminds me an awful lot of Jon Stewart's book, and in some ways Stephen Colbert's as well. Seems funny.
