One of the funniest books that has passed through my hands is the recently
published "Overheard at the Museum" by Judith Henry.
It is said to be compiled of the actual museum visitors' comments and is
full of priceless one-liners like

"Let's go to the giftshop first"

"Didn't we just see that? I can't remember"

"Wow! Look who donated this one"

"We've been here 4 hours -I think I'll have the masseuse come to the house
tonight"

"This one over here is so horizontal"

"I think the postcard is better than the painting"

"I really love this painting but it has way too much green in it"

"You can look at the show; I'll wait in the lobby"

"That's just more of the same but you can check it out"

"Marge has one like that, but that's the real one"

"Self-portrait? Good grief... is that what he looks like?"

"He looks awfully young to be dead"

"I have two books on Georgia O'Keefe-they are both big"


and so on
