on Fads & Fashion...
In the interest of full disclosure, I admit there's an extant 1970's photo of me and a date, posing for the obligatory parental pre-prom photo. My date was gorgeous, and sane. I, on the other hand, showed up with the hair of a medieval barber. I looked like an electrocuted yak.
on St. Valentine's Day...
Somehow, February got this reputation as a month of romance, maybe because it's cold. Plus, football's gone and we're stuck with the wildly popular sport of bowling, where you almost never get to see any serious violence. St. Valentine's Day contains vestiges of both early Christian and ancient Roman traditions, alongside other time-honored traditions, like hot-dish picnics and mass public executions. Holiday Factoid "vestiges" is the classical Greek plural of "vest."
on Typos...
A local TV station was updating the community on snowstorm-based church closings. According to the typists at the station, there was a church somewhere called St. Martyer. Imagine - an entire religious sect dedicated to turning people into Ernest Borgnine.

Sorry, We Can't Use FunnyWritten by Barry Parham
Reviewed by R. Murry
I laughed. I thought and laughed. And I laughed, thought, and laughed with each sentence I read of Mr. Parham's many off the cuff jesting and jiving. I'm just joking. I think he put much thought into each of his stories, shorts, and pondering. He writes some intelligent quibbling too, but not to a fault.
I'm glad he put all these interludes with the world in a book. I would get frustrated if I had to wait for a newspaper column to come out each week to enjoy his type of entertainment.
Enjoyed most by me, are his Dear Abby Redux replies to correspondents who propose situations and quibble about the world around them. Mr. Parham answers with appropriate funny words.
In his writing, I get the feeling that he enjoys poking at the current world affairs especially at the leaders of the free world, as we all do. However, Mr. Parham does not insult, but gets right to the point which is funnier in a sad way, because of the truth in his words.
I'm not going to give details, but will say that if you want to have a good time laughing, buy this funny expose of the world and the people in it.

Sorry We Can't Use Funny Barry Parham 9781453786185 Books Reviews
Parham's first collection "Why I hate Straws" is a
hilarious book that I still recommend to my friends. Fortunately, the first was not a fluke. "Sorry We Can't Use Funny" is simply a howl. Each page and every topic is laugh-out-loud good stuff, the "Dear Abby" spoofs alone making this book a must read!
Barry Parham should be writing for Hollywood. "Sorry We Can't Use Funny" is not just a collection of witty stories about life - (that we can all relate to)...EVERY sentence is dripping with hilarity. Clever, dry, witty, brilliant humor. I wanted to pick a favorite story to highlight in this review but it's impossible. Many thanks for the laughs and for letting me know maybe it isn't just me, afterall.
I laughed `till I cried reading the "Duke Sigmoid" colonoscopy story. One of the funniest things I've ever read.
I was absolutely enthralled and held spellbound reading the "Clay Pigeon" short story. I felt I could taste the art of the wordsmith in this skillful writing.
As a side, I have never visually witnessed the verbal meshing of character and intelligence so powerfully displayed as written in the dedication page of this book.
What a wordsmith and gifted writer. It brought tears to my aged eyes.
I won a copy of this book via First Reads on the Goodreads website. It's not a book I would normally pick up at a bookstore (I'm more of a Nora Roberts reader), but the description sucked me in, and I was lucky enough to score a copy. It's a hilarious collection of stories, and I laughed the whole way through. I'm glad I tried something new. D
This book is a collection of articles on a variety of topics, current events to technology to medical procedures. No one is safe from Barry's dry wit, including himself. His observations are very funny!
Barry Parham's Sorry, We Can't Use Funny, adds another book to his list of outrageously hilarious articles. Anyone who can make his own minor surgical procedures so funny, along with such an opposite theme as the morass of Washington, DC, in his companion recent release, Blush, has a seriously different viewpoint of his world and the characters who inhabit it. I laughed from cover to cover. Every now and then I still chuckle and cackle when I remember the situations so vividly described that I can picture them in my mind. (BTW, it is not easy to make me chuckle and cackle.) Great book for a cold winter night by the fire.
Barry Parham has the same ability that made George Carlin a great comedian. He looks at the things that go on around us everyday and take for granted but he finds these precious gems of humor in them. Get "Sorry, We Can't Use Funny" and enjoy the therapeutic advantages of laughter in large doses, plus it's cheaper than a bottle of Xanax.
