Kidding Around with the King of Comedy

Jim Carrey is used to being laughed at. In fact, he thrives on entertaining others. As a precocious young boy, he practiced pulling faces in the bathroom mirror -- a talent that would later prove to be instrumental in his success -- and performed self-created skits for his family.

Unfortunately, his life wasn't one smooth cruise to the top. The Canadian-born funnyman's rags-to-riches tale is the stuff dreams are made of.

Since his early smash hit Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, the blockbuster movie roles just keep on coming. But Carrey isn't content simply to play it safe and stick with the slapstick comedy roles he knows and performs so confidently. In fact, with releases such as The Truman Show and Man on the Moon, Carrey has challenged himself creatively and shown audiences that he is capable of demonstrating sensitivity and immense dramatic range. With his latest hit move, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, this shooting star's future just keeps getting brighter!.

If "Dilbert" worked as a process engineer, this is the kind of stuff he would tell you about. Here's an insider's collection of original satires and jokes from the men and women behind the tanks and valves and digital readouts.

Incompetent bosses, insecure jobs, convoluted procedures, unrealistic expectations, and dumb mistakes-it's all here, in living black and white. Longtime process control expert Greg McMillan has collaborated with cartoonist Ted Williams and friends to tell you about bad start-ups, Y2K problems, and just plain old everyday plant floor craziness.

Here too is "From the Control Room"-a hilarious catalog of malapropisms and verbal flubs by those most eloquent of professionals, control room operators and engineers. Throw in a few of McMillan's favorite lists and jokes from earlier books, such as "The Top Ten Terrifying Thoughts of Control Engineers, Just Before they Fall Asleep," and you've got a collection of silliness and fun that will tickle the funny bone of anybody in the know..
