	I have heard from a usually reliable source that the Herb campaign
being run by Burger King was the "brainchild" of Joey Green. Mr Green is
perhaps better known as the editor of "Hellbent on Insanity, a look at
college humor in the seventies, and a few years of the eighties when you
weren't looking.", as a former editor of National Lampoon, former president
of the National Association of College Humor Magazines, and Editor in
Chief of the Cornell Lunatic, and main inspiration for the Cornell
Liberation Army.
	Ordinarilly I would assume that such a stupid ad campaign was
the result of a lot of people in high places getting a bit too much
cocaine, but in this case, I know Joey well enough to be certain that
it was not drug inspired.
	Joey is the only person I know on the "ought to be shot" list. If
I can get him to promise never to do it again, will you please take him
off the list?


[Obligatory Joke follows:]

	A young fanatical moslum man was visiting the Wall Street section
of New York City, with a nuclear car bomb, which was to simultaneously
destroy the worlds financial institutions, and be his ticket to
salvation.
	Since he knew he was guarenteed salvation by his mission, he
decided to indulge in a few Earthly pleasures before the end. After
visiting a few streetwalkers, and imbibing some fairly mild street drugs,
he was feeling a bit hungry. So he went to a deli, and asked "How's the
tongue?" to which the manager replied, "It speaks for itself."

[Sorry, I really couldn't think of a good one]
