As we all know, true creativity comes from simple formulas and the memorization of data. This new bible makes the secrets of comedy accessible, not only to those funny few among us, but also to those who might not have the ability or talent to be funny.
Comedy By The Numbers is a nearly comprehensive list of all comedy characters, bits, scenarios, sketches, skits, shtick, and much more. Includes special hints, tips, comedy history and hilariously funny comedy facts. (We say "nearly" because we want to leave room for Volume 3.)
