Did You Hear The One About ....: A book of puns, one liners, and witticisms compiled by George Young illustrated by Darryl Curson (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781548793517)

IntroductionGeorge Young and Darryl Curson have been lifelong friends since they were toddlers on St. Mary Street in Shelbyville, Indiana in the early 1950s. They attended the same Shelbyville schools through high school and ultimately college at Indiana University, Bloomington. Something in their early surroundings nurtured a basis for their shared appreciation of odd absurdities of life. Perhaps it was the DDT mosquito fogging trucks that frequently sprayed St. Mary Street during the hot summers. George has always enjoyed sharing his awful jokes and puns with family, friends, colleagues and acquaintances. Darryl has always expressed his sense of humor via his cartoons and caricatures. Both these friends eventually left their hometown to pursue their careers, only occasionally meeting at class reunions. After retirement, they re-connected via a hometown Facebook page, Darryl publishing a daily cartoon strip and George posting daily humorous one-liners. Thus the idea to collaborate on an illustrated book of hilarious one-liners was launched. They ultimately settled on producing what you see in this book. DedicationThis book is dedicated to the battle against the opioid epidemic that is so profoundly impacting our country and specifically the hometown of George & Darryl. Our families have deep roots in Shelby County going back to the early 19th century. We want to give back to our community and help fight this problem. The devastating effects of opioids are dramatically changing the character of this small Hoosier town and is tearing at the very fabric of the community. The royalties generated by this book will be exclusively directed to Shelby Co, Indiana solely toward fighting the drug crisis, raising awareness of the disease of addiction and the opioid epidemic that has ravaged our hometown. It is also our hope to bring a few smiles along the way. Thank you
