It is nice to see, in this overly triggered and too easily offended world, that one can still to laugh at one's own account.

It took one day to pick it up and before I knew it, it was done. Every conceivable joke is in this laugh filled read. My jaw is sore from laughing so much. The perfect book to finish off a month of reading mind turning stories.

I used this book to get me through various painful surgeries. I regaled the nurses and visitors with yuks. It distracts the mind from the pain...a great pain management technique. To this day, i volunteer to read out load to bed ridden people. great fun.

Not sure about "ultimate", but there are lots of jokes in there, and generally very funny.
