Product Description
The best-selling prank letters 'discovered' by Jerry Seinfeld Spoof letter writing has a long history from Lazlo Toth to Henry Root but nothing can prepare you for the uniquely surreal and endearing world of Ted L Nancy. A kind of Trigger Happy correspondence his innocent requests queries complaints demands and suggestions to hotels airlines multi-national corporations local government and department stores are so absurd it is amazing they fool anyone - but often the deadpan responses are even more hilarious. Ted wants to know if he can graft his big toe onto his nose why his wife left him while he was in a coma for another man in a coma and if he can consummate his marriage in the administrative office of the chapel. He writes to hotels telling them he eats his mattress. He writes to casinos to ask if his band the 'Fat Beatles' can perform and if he can stay in their hotel dressed as a bladder.Utterly addictive and wet-yourself-in-a-public-place funny: Dear Business Permits Dept: I want to apply for a business permit in your fine city... I operate the SOUP & SLEEP RESTAURANTS. You can either order soup or sleep. A hostess will greet you and you would say I'd like to sleep. She will lead you to a table where you can catch a few winks. Dear Helena Ocean & Dog Licensing Dept: I will stage the play MARK TWAIN WITH TOURETTE'S SYNDROME.... Let me know what arrangements I need to make to store my anchovy tank at your seaport. Thank you. I await large crowds.
