Since you've ruled out your usual leftist weenies hilarious joke, how
about a hint on which non-political part of this is supposed to have us
rolling in the aisles?

Jim

I guess you didn't read it all the way to the end.

...Jim Thompson

You guessed wrong. I wasted x minutes of my life to read a joke that
Anedjib would have found hackneyed.

Jim

Let me see, those with no sense of humor... we call them leftist
weenies ;-)

When I see people laughing for no reason, I suspect they are drunk,
insane or senile.


Or just happy to be alive.

I just read an interesting quotation in this morning's paper...

"It is a test of a good religion whether you can joke about it."
(Attributed to Gilbert K. Chesterton)

And then there is Islam :-(

The interesting thing about most evangelical religions is that they
are out-front religions of joy.

Ah, yes, joy. The pacifist lefties deny themselves the pleasure of
what the Germans used to call a "frischer und fröhlicher Krieg" (a
fresh and joyful war). Or as the ultimate right-winger Ghenghis Khan
proclaimed:

"The greatest joy is to conquer one's enemies, to pursue them, to
seize their property, to see their families in tears, to ride their
horses and to possess their daughters and wives".

Of course Christians have always been a particularly joyous bunch, as
opposed to, say, the somewhat dour Persians who have not attached
anyone in six generations.
