Exactly who are YOU to tell other people what they should or 
should not post?  Just because a group of people might not like
limericks or YABS, or YALBJ, does not mean they should ask other
people to stop posting them.  After all you do have an 'n' key don't
you?  Anyway people, if you think something is humorous or amusing
post it, that's what this group is here for.


A joke, you ask?

Well...   In Robert Asprin's Myth Adventures series, he starts
each chapter with a quote.  This quote is usually not funny by
itself, but rather the humor is in the person it is attributed to.

For example:

     "There's no accounting for taste!"   -Colonel Sanders

     "I didn't come all this way to sit out the fight" -R. Balboa

     "The trails got to be 'round here SOMEWHERE!" -D. Boone

     "Nice jail.  Looks strong." -H. Houdini

Anyway, can you net.jokers come up with some more of these?  I'd like
to request that quotes from the Myth-Adventures series NOT be used,
simply because interested people can find these books at their local
bookstores.  Of course this is a request, and everyone is free to 
ignore it.

                                                  From a friend's account,
