Actually, you can copyright collections of jokes. However, since people may have gotten the jokes from elsewhere, it would be hard to prove if anyone is infringing on your rights. Most who write joke books borrowed the jokes anyway. So it is hard to know where someone got a joke, especially if the wording is much different.
