This monster is an ongoing challenge, but who can resist reading comments like, "Trying to sneak a pitch past [baseball great] Hank Aaron is like trying to sneak a sunrise past a rooster." That's right on page 1; only 799 more to go! It's ordered alphabetically, by the name of the person about whom the anecdote is made. I can hardly wait for Dorothy Parker to show up...!

ADLER, Herman (1839-1911), British rabbi (chief rabbi of London)

"At Your Eminence's wedding," came the prompt reply.
