The
focus of this “coffee table
pocketbook” is the
approximate time period of
1996 – 2006. The
introductory portion of the
book provides a launch pad
for group discussions about
how society transitioned
into e-mail usage as an
every day means of
communication.
The balance of the
book provides selected
“keepsake jokes” that will
help us reflect – in later
years – upon this period of
our social e-history.
This book provides readers a
chance to laugh all over
again at the jokes that had
us chucking the first time
around.
Great gift for birthdays,
holidays, you name it!

It’s important to document
history as we live it. Certainly
the internet and e-mail have
changed the way we communicate
as a society.

Speaking from a generation that
grew up without computers – let
alone the internet – this
pocketbook is a humorous
reminder of one of the
milestones for my generation.
This book will remain on my
bookshelf.

This book will keep your
attention and you won't put it
down. You will be sharing it
with your friends and family.
It's a keeper. In loving memory
of our dear brother, John
Burkhardt who was an avid
e-mailer which gave him company
and cheer in his invalid years.

As an aspiring nursing student,
I've spent many hours on-line
reading medical journals,
writing papers and participating
in study group activities. It is
a real stress breaker when I can
pause for a moment to read a
little e-mail humor and trivia.

“For 1000s of years people have
told close friends jokes – that
are quickly forgotten.
Computers, the Internet and
email have led to jokes and
humorous anecdotes crossing the
world – but most were deleted.
This collection reminded me of
some of the funniest from the
early days of email – and many
still have a grain of truth,
whether you are a manager,
worker, teacher, parent, child,
cat or dog lover”
