A funny thing happened on the way from Rio de Janeiro to Fukuoka to Mumbai to Barcelona to Fort de France, etc. In fact more than one funny thing happened... Going around the world makes the author dizzy. If the reader finds anything out of line in this book, it's only because her/his head is spinning. Follow this meandering path and find yourself at wit's beginning. TJ JNG is dedicated to breaching, dividing, and closing the gap between the strange and the "ha! ha! " of humour, creating a greater chasm than before while making the space between each side no more than a nanometre. TJ JNG combines satire with the outlandish, the outrageous, the quite ridiculous, and some true stories. TJ JNG is challenging, puzzling, provocative, and thought-stimulating for many people. TJ JNG is confusing, stymieing, and totally baffling for many others. Knowing some words in French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Japanese might help but probably won't. Warning: This writing may not change your mind but it might turn your mind upside down.
