I thought you might enjoy this article from NPR about puns. Some call them the lowest form of humor, but they have some interesting nuances you might enjoy reading about.
That's pretty darn good. I may groan at pun doozies, but I am awed by the well crafted ones. Part of why I've been a fan of the Xanth books from the time I first discovered them. Wordplay beyond the crude humor sort is awesome stuff.
