How to Raise Your IQ

April 22, 2009

I hate it when someone steals my idea for a book…

Actually, How to Raise Your I.Q. by Eating Gifted Children is a real book by satirist Lewis Frumkes and he wrote it nearly a decade ago.

It should be noted that eating skinny children does not help you lose weight.

I learned this the hard way.

It’s so obvious! Eat gifted children and gain their knowledge.

So will my IQ drop if I eat stupid children? Maybe I should stop using those box-and-stick traps…

Eating sweet children made me diabetic.

I saw this book in a used book store many many years ago and thought the title was so funny that I should buy it. I’m sad to report that the title was by far my favorite part… although I admit I didn’t finish it.

What about eating “Christian” children?

I maintain my youthful good looks by eating cute children.

I have a copy that was published in 1983. I believe it was first published in the 1970’s.

Is this going to be in the same vein as “A Modest Proposal?”
