A Thought

If you are posting an article with the byline (picked up by Google) of "Fifteen Funniest Books Ever Written" you might want to reconsider having only two come from before the Twentieth Century (even if they are Three Men in a Boat and Tristram Shandy, which argues for some taste). After all, in a history which contains Aristophanes, Rabelais, Swift, Pope, Smollet, and Austen getting away from temporal parochialism would seem to be a good strategy.
