Students would submit jokes in a cardboard box, appropriately named
the "dry box."Lanehart would choose five jokes from the box to read
to his students. They would then judge them on a scale of 1-10,
according to the dryness of the joke. The winner of the best joke
won a brown paper towel. Lanehart saved nearly all of the jokes,
and these have been the source of his books. This is the last of
the four book series. Lanehart has previously written The Dry Off
Book 1: The Mysteriously Silly Solo Edition, The Dry Off Book 2:
The Dynamically Dumb Duo Edition, and The Dry Off Book 3.0 for
Smarties. This final book, The Not So Dry Off Book 4: the
Critically Ashamed Insensitive Edition is a slight departure from
the others. Most of the jokes are similar to those in the other
three books. In this book, every joke is illustrated with clip art,
and contains some jokes that were never read to students in a
middle school classroom. There are long jokes, short jokes, and
some that might be offensive to a sensitive reader. Thus the name
of the book. The cover resembles the brown paper towels the joke
winners would receive So, enjoy the humor, do not take them
seriously, and have some fun with the final book of the series.

The idea of the Dryoff Book Series came from a joke contest he held
in his classroom on Monday mornings. Students would submit jokes in
a cardboard box placed in the classroom, appropriately named the
"dry box." Lanehart would choose five jokes from the box to read to
the class, who would then grade them on a scale of 1-10, according
to the dryness of the joke. The student whose joke received the
highest number at the end of the day would receive a new, straight
from the custodian's office, never been used, brown paper towel,
autographed with their name and the words "Dry Off." The idea
behind the paper towel was that you never knew when you might have
to dry off. Lanehart has written The Dryoff Book 1: The
Mysteriously Silly Solo Edition, The Dryoff Book 2: The Dynamically
Dumb Duo Edition, and now The Dryoff Book 3.0 for Smarties. These
books consist of a compilation of all of the jokes that have been
submitted. He has tried to engage his readers young and old, to
enjoy the refreshing and innocent feeling dry humor can bestow. He
has meticulously illustrated many of the jokes with clipart to give
the jokes more of a "dry feeling." This is the third of four books,
with The Not So Dryoff Book 4: The Critically Ashamed Insensitive
Edition as the last in the series.
