You'll find something you can use, but don't count on being overwhelmed with a myriad of new material. Most of what I read in the first few pages contained slightly off-color, or better yet, derogatory remarks where so-called humor is delivered at someone's character. Other one-liners fall in the category of "no laughs because you'd have to explain the punchline." Is it worth $6? Absolutely. Will you gain new material? Yes. But when you come across the one-liners that do not fit your personality, style, or audience, allow those line items to be used to spark your ingenuity and creative thinking so you can adapt them to your style. I'm reminded of Carl Ballentine and Don Rickles.
