28. Dave Barry in Cyberspace, by Dave Barry

A hilarious book about computers and the Internet, written in 1996. In spite of the passage of nineteen years, some of the jokes are still relevant (the Internet is still full of bizarre stuff, new computers are still almost instantaneously outmoded, and technical support is still the pits). Other jokes are funny in retrospect, like jokes about AOL and the slowness of the Internet (I was in college when this book was written, so I remember most of this stuff).


"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”
