List
My last Comedy newsletter was about putting together lists to make people laugh. It's probably in my bottom five newsletter efforts; but what can I say? I've been uninspired lately.

10 Books that Screwed Up The World
Books are one of our greatest resources, but many times in history books have been written which are misleading or untrue. In some cases this has lead to widescale death and destruction and evil governmental regimes.
This is a list of ten of the worst books of this type - books that have done more harm than good. The common thread in all of these books is deception - invariably not intentional, but the consequences are the same regardless.
I'm not sure I agree with the "invariably not intentional" part, and I'd say they're missing a few. Still - dine well. |
