You know your sister's crazy...

...and she knows it too...when you find her reading a GRAMMAR BOOK as her fun reading! Scary, huh? That's the kind of craziness around here.

But it's a cute book. I mean, how many grammar books have cute little jokes on the back? This is called Eats, Shoots & Leaves.


Wanna know why? This is the joke on the back...

A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air.
"Why? asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes toward the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder.
"I'm a panda," he says, at the door. "Look it up."
The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation.
"Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."

Get it?! Ok, it's weird...but come on, isn't it cute?! It's the PERFECT joke for a grammar book! :P

hahahahahahaha... my favorite joke EVER. Punctuation sticklers UNITE!! To all of you how know it's "all books on sale", not "all book's on sale"; "Two Weeks' Notice", not "Two Weeks Notice"; "no children, please", not "no children please".
