I read Jim Belushi's - Real men don't apologize and haven't stopped laughing. What are some other books that are very funny? Non-Fiction or Fiction (or any book for that matter).

Adult oriented books please. Not porn but not kids books either.

Like others who have answered before me I would recommend Neil Gaiman and Terri Pratchetts "Good Omens" literally one of the funniest books out there. Other books by Terri Pratchett are great as well, particularly "Mort". Mort is about when Death decides to take some time off and go on holiday. It is hilarious.
I also love Christopher Moore's, "Lamb: The Gospel According to Christ's Childhood Friend Biff." and his most recent book, " A Dirty Job."
Also, years ago, Whoopie Goldberg wrote, "Book" really one of the funniest books I have ever read.
Have you ever been reading and started laughing so hard you couldn't go on because you were laughing so hard? Well those books above are like that. Enjoy!

A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson (several of his books are great, but this is my favorite -- it's LOL funny)
The Tummy Trilogy by Calvin Trillin (hilarious if you're into food)
Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris
Holidays On Ice by David Sedaris
Savage Love: Straight Answers from America's Most Popular Sex Columnist by Dan Savage (also LOL funny)

The Stephanie Plum series of books by Janet Evanovich are very funny... One for the Money, Two for the Dough, etc.

"Don Quixote, USA" by Robert Powell is great. It may be hard to find as it was published in 1966. I found it in a used book store in one of those Reader's Digest books that contained 3 or 4 novels.

The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, by Douglas Adams. It's absurd and totally hilarious!

Freshman by Michael Gerber. It's pretty absurd, so you should pick it up and read a page or two to see if you like it first (some people think it's just stupid).
