Apologies for my previous posting, someone else said it better.
And now for the joke:
A recently convicted felon was sitting in a cell with an old-timer in their
cell-block.  The new guy says to the older guy "What do you guys do to keep 
entertained around here?"
" Oh, we tell jokes" says the old guy.
Just then, from one of the cells in the block, comes a shout.
"34!"
A few chuckles  are heard.
"98!" comes another shout.
A giggle comes from the next cell.
The new convict is confused.
"I'm confused" says the new convict, "What's going on?"
"Well", says the old timer, "we get to know the jokes so well that we number
them, you'll catch on"
There's a lull for a while, then someone chokes out another number.
"234!"
The whole cell block erupts in laughter.
"What was that one?", says the young convict.
The old-timer stops gagging long enough to say, "Well, that's a new one, son"
