註釋"I think my mom must have skipped her prenatal vitamins the day my fetal chromosomes for domesticity were forming. The only thing domestic about me is that I'm housebroken - usually." Introducing Sharon May, who dedicates her weekly humor column to the idea that Laughing Matters. In every column, she invites us to roll with life's punches by joining her in laughing at ourselves and the zany world we live in. For ten years, Sharon has been entertaining Southern Utah newspaper readers with her hilarious accounts of everyday life. She delivers the grins in such common experiences as assembling furniture with directions that begin, "Align Dowel D-3 with Hole H-26 in Door B"; fighting thighs the size of grain silos; pulling out a tree root obviously wound around the earth's core; misplacing eyeglasses in the microwave; and operating complicated technology such as toenail clippers. And then there was that time she tried to weigh her head in the grocery store produce scale ... Sharon's hilarious mishaps and uniquely worded observations reveal a screwball world that every reader will recognize at once. She takes the mundane and makes us laugh at her foibles and misadventures, which are our own as well, no matter who we are. SHARON MAY has been a humor columnist since 1998. She has been a middle-school, high-school and college English teacher for even more years, and did a two-year stint as managing editor of a weekly newspaper. She grew up in the suburbs of Los Angeles but has lived the last decade in Hurricane, Utah, from where she launches her adventures into the Southwest. Laughing Matters is her second book.
