Marjorie J. Preston and her friends compiled a bunch of the best Ohio jokes and spun them into a little joke book! Some they wrote, and others have been passed around for years. Old gems, new twists on old themes, plays on words, and local Ohio color are all here. This book is a perfect gift for die-hard Buckeyes, as well as for those just passing through.

"The problem with political jokes is they get elected." Let's look at some of the best and the brightest (funniest) moments in our recent political and social history, quotes from the leaders that we so look up to and admire, and even a few celebrities.
