That said, Stephen Leacock is funny.
I recently read Family - The Ties that Bind...And Gag! by Erma Bombeck. She is a different kind of funny.
Oscar Wilde will be witty, not funny. But I have cracked up reading some of his wise cracks.
A Confederacy of Dunces is supposed to be funny. Haven't read it yet and the reviews are mixed.
The Color of Magic is also supposed to be funny (my to read), it is usually shelved with Douglas Adams of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: The Quandary Phase (which was wacko, don't know about funny...)

The general danced at dawn by George macdonald Fraser is another one - absolutely hilarious.
Cold Comfort farm by Stella Gibbons, so funny.
Anthony Buckeridge's jennings books are wonderful, it was through them that i came to wodehouse by searching for other funny school stories.

audiobook of his adventures from the UK to Germany.
