One Hundred Fair-to-Middling Jokes
5/5

About this ebook
This is a compilation of one hundred (generally inoffensive) jokes, some short, some long.
Each joke is given a title and is numbered.
They vary in length - from very short (a couple of lines) to fairly long (thirty lines plus).
After the main body of jokes there is a section which explains each one for readers who might not have fully understood.
This should be useful for readers who are not native speakers of English - or even readers from other parts of the English-speaking world where the humour of one part may be somewhat incomprehesnible to the other.
There is also a list of the jokes by title, and by number. Some of these sections may be more or less useful according to the format in which the book is viewed.

This book should not really be copied as Mr. Jackson-Firefly is living on the fringes of poverty, and he informs us that he would prefer it if the book were purchased rather than be copied and freely distributed. He might thus enjoy a bowl of hot soup now and then with whatever sporadic and sparse income that his literary creation generates. We appreciate your cooperation in helping Mr. Jackson-Firefly continue to eke out a meagre existence as a laughterologist.

1. INTRODUCTION
This is the second compendium of jokes by Ebenezer Jackson-Firefly (nom de plume of Ezekiel Jackson-Firefly). His first joke book was published in April 2012 to the bewilderment of many, and resulted in zero sales. Encouraged by this spectacular lack of success, Mr. Jackson-Firefly has rewarded the reading public with a further one hundred jokes.
Frankly, some of them are so awful that they should never have seen the light of day. And yet... we have found that some of the best jokes didn’t raise a laugh at all with some people, and yet the weakest jokes were thought to be hilarious by others. There’s no accounting for taste, it seems.
We have added a section ‘Don’t Get It?’ which explains the inner workings of the jokes
for those readers who may not have seen the humour or understood the punchline.
Mr. Jackson-Firefly has told us that he has many more jokes in his twenty-drawer birch library-card file, something which we were rather afraid of.
And that’s all for the moment.
