Over the weekend, I read the latest from Mark R. Hunter, Slightly Off the Mark: The Unpublished Columns. With columns on everything from politics to the weather (one of my own favorite topics), this book was chock full o’ laughs. I was crying with laughter within minutes of opening this book, and I elicited strange looks from my family as I continued reading.
At 190 pages, it was a quick read, and I finished it within a day. I’ve been in a bit of a funk lately, and this was just what I needed to cheer me up. So if you haven’t checked it out yet, I highly recommend it.
Go on. You know you want to. 🙂
Mark R. Hunter is an author, firefighter, humorist, dad, and self-proclaimed home maintenance failure from northeast Indiana. His weekly humor column “Slightly off the Mark” appeared in three newspapers for over twenty years, which is coincidentally the age of his first grey hair, before being unceremoniously cut short in 2014. This volume collects his previously unpublished and “leftover”columns.

Suddenly they all died. The end. 
He’s quite the writer, isn’t he?

I hope the Pulitzer committee gets wind of this! Wait … do they have a “best humor” category? They should.

I don’t know whether they do or not, but if they don’t, they definitely should. 🙂
