What a great idea! You should do that - I am sure it would make the 
extreme section!

I found myself laughing out loud when I was reading the books and 
unfortunately it is impossible to explain exactly what it is you are 
laughing about because it is so pun ridden and it builds joke upon 
joke. It is refreshing to read something that is adult humor and is 
both lowbrow and highbrow at the same time! Mr. Fforde certainly 
knows his grammar and his literature! This was certainly one of the 
most original books I have ever read.
