Thank you for the compliment.
I tried very hard not to post repeats but I must admit it is getting harder as time goes bye. I really don't have a secret source'(s) of new jokes. Awhile back, about 11 friends / co-workers by accident sought of formed a daily informal email joke network. I am subscribed to a 3- or 4 Internet daily mailing of jokes also. Our group agreed to send on average at list 2 jokes daily that really made the sender bust a gut laughing.

Not long ago I was criticized here on SI for some of the jokes I posted for basically going out of bounds or in bad taste. I have no bias to towards any nationally or ethic group just a laugh at our selves. I do admit I tend to focus towards married women but real humor is always based on a small element of truth. Since I have been married for many years I do have some real knowledge of the subject. Off color language in many cases makes a joke funny just as exaggeration of truth. . Since then I have tried to filter the content more closely. The jokes I have posted are just words and if others get a laugh from them-great!. I feel in some small way I have made their day brighter.

It would be great if SI allowed posting of graphics and wav. files. I have some ones.

Again, thanks for the "kinds words".

Regards,
John

Almost forgot the joke.
