Anybody know of Lit. Agents dealing in humor/satire...
...who are open to looking to new material/taking on new clients?

If you did, you probably wouldn't have time to be here, but I figured it was worth a shot! Thanks!

2. No, but...
you'll probably find something here...http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1582971897/qid=1063759606/sr=2-1/ref=sr_2_1/102-9056736-3537730

3. The standard trick is to go to libraries or bookstores
and check out the books of people whose stuff at least somewhat resembles yours, especially their first books when they're still feeling grateful, and check the acknowledgments/thank yous for a literary agent. Or go and become a famous standup comedian, which seems the only way to get a humor book published these days.
