Joke A Day Says:
Announcing the newest recipient of the "Judi Award".
For the 20,000 or so readers who missed what I'm talking
about, a brief synopsis:
Back in June I told a couple of blonde jokes that upset
this poor lady considerably. She had blonde hair and just
didn't feel blondes should be picked on. You can view the
entire transaction at my buddy Joe Small's Humor Page at:
http://www.atl.mindspring.com/~joesmall/homepage.htm
Just go to Flame Of The Week and read the whole thing. (No,
I won't forward it to anyone . . .)
Today we had a gent from England who obviously doesn't
share my sense of humor. That's ok -- heck, that's what
makes the world a nice place. So we started a bit of an
exchange regarding getting him *OFF* the list. I have to tell
you, Jon actually is far more intelligent than Judi was and it
was a rather pleasant exchange overall.
To those of you who don't like "flame wars", don't bother
reading this. We don't degenerate to insulting each other's
mothers, but we don't rise much above a 10th grader's level
of insults, however nattily we both use the King's English.
Also, don't bother writing and asking me for Jon's email
address as I won't pass it out to anyone. Even though Jon
has earned a Judi (and he's already gone so he won't get
to read all of this) he still wouldn't deserve to face the
wrath *some* of you are capable of inflicting. :)
(I guess I'll have to come up with some "Judi and Jon"
jokes, huh?)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ok, before I get to this, I've got to do a couple of commercials
to help pay the bills, so bear with me.

Despite your vain attempts at humour, these simple
statements can in no way be classed as jokes. There is a
certain formulae involved in creating jokes and these do not
come close to fulfilling the neccessary criteria. Please do not
send me anymore of these - I found my own turd more
amusing than this joke to day.
Kind Regards

Jon:
Despite your attempt at a witty response, your opinion in
no way can be considered anything except the rantings of
a very sad individual. Since I didn't sign you up for the
service, then I suggest you follow the instructions on how
to unsubscribe.
Kindest regards,

Ray,
It would seem that you describe yourself as a Joke A Day - I
can't argue with that. Yet again you have failed to realise the
subtle difference between an argumentative statement and a
witty retort - I was in no way intending to make you laugh with
my previous mail, just as it seems that you are in no way
intending to make me laugh with your mails. If you like I can
send you as boring a mail as you require, once a day - as you
do to me....
So - I didn't sign myself up for this service (I'd rather sign
up to get serviced by a Donkey), therefore kindly remove me
from this list after removing your thumb from your arse,
Kindest Regards

Jon:
I believe if you checked genealogical records you would
find your ancestors actually *were* serviced by a donkey.
This would make your urge genetic and possibly enlighten
you as to your parentage. My deepest sympathies.
To spare you further mental anguish (haven't you had
enough in life?) in attempting to figure out how to leave our
list, I will manually unsubscribe you.
Warmest Regards,
Ray

Oh Ray, Ray, from Joke-A-Day
won't you ever go away
will you bug me night and day
why don't you run along and play.........
oh, and by the way:
In some respects you may be right with the Donkey theory,
there is no doubt that I have inheritted certain alleles from
some enormous quadraped - (possibly a race horse though).
As far manually unsubscribing me - not whilst I've got my
strength you won't........
All the Breast

Dear Jon Dear Jon
Doesn't know that's he's just running on.
Thinks he's as well endowed as me
But actually is hung like a flea.
I'll take the breast and raise you a nipple . . .
