Summary: Speaker's Resource
Comment: As a trainer and coach, I feel this book is a good guide for any occasion - however, it is to be used in a light-hearted vein. It actually brightened my day.

It can prepare you when someone is about to pass a witty remark - and you can give an equally witty rejoinder!

However, I feel that its greatest strength is to give speakers a good starting point to develop their own brand of witty humour.

Go on - buy the book.

Summary: Useful to entertainers
Comment: At least the jokes are clean. If you desire stronger stuff go to the best seller list of the new york times. Some of the jokes might be described as sexy clean. How do you write (or compile) a joke that is sexy clean? Ask Gene Perret.

Summary: A Book on How to Lose Friends and Deflate People
Comment: There are hardly any toasts in the book. How many times have you been involved in a roast compared to a toast or impromptu compliment. The title of the book is totally misleading. It should be "One Liners in Search of Their Once in a Lifetime Moment." The only persons that should buy this book is that rare individual that is involved in roasts or that even rarer person that has far too many friends. Use the one liners in this book and your friends are sure to disappear. Or you run with a really strange crowd. I know a couple of strange people that I could give the book to, but should I encourage them.
