One, by E.B.White who compared the analysis of humor to dissecting a frog; that is, it can be done, but the frog tends to die in the process. The other quote was: what is truly funny or humorous is that which is totally unexpected and totally logical. The only problem is, I don't know who said the second one. Does anyone know? - Dave Maxey (alias tbm) {seismo,mcnc,brl-bmd,allegra}!rlgvax!dave
