Double Dealing

Humor has at least two elements: incongruity and surprise. The double deals in this book contain these two elements. Other words that describe double-dealing statements are ironic, paradoxical, coincidental, serendipitous, cynical, satirical, burlesque, teasing, absurdity, and farce. My preferred term is double entendre. It's a phrase or word open to two interpretations which triggers incongruity and surprise. The contents are divided into three parts: I-Statements of Double Dealing, II-Re-Verses-Tongue in Cheek Poems, III-Verse-Poem
