-Caveat Lector- Probably seen before ... if not, here y'are! Joke du Jour (tm) Set 1. Volume 13; Issue 3. Jan 3, 1999 Some jokes ask for no comments. LadyHawke ~*~*~*~*~*~* "The Politically Correct 12 Days of Christmas" On the twelfth day of the Eurocentrically imposed midwinter festival, my true love gave to me... Twelve males reclaiming their inner warrior through ritual drumming. Eleven pipers piping. (plus the 18-member pit orchestra made up of members in good standing of the Musician's Union, as called for in their union contract even though they will not be asked to play a single note.) Ten melanin-deprived testosterone-poisoned scions of the patriarchal ruling class system leaping. Nine persons engaged in rhythmic self-expression. Eight economically disadvantage female persons stealing milk products from enslaved Bovine-Americans. Seven endangered swans swimming on federally protected wetlands. Six enslaved Fowl-Americans producing non-human animal products. Five golden symbols of culturally sanctioned enforced domestic incarceration. (Note: After a member of the Animal Liberation Front threatened to throw red paint on my computer, the calling birds, French hens and partridge have been reintroduced into the wild. To avoid further animal-American enslavement, the remaining have been revised.) Four hours of recorded whale songs. Three deconstructionist poets. Two Sierra Club calendars printed on recycled processed trees. And a Spotted Owl activist chained to an old-growth pear tree. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ A<>E<>R The only real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes. -Marcel Proust + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Forwarded as information only; no endorsement to be presumed + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + In accordance with Title 17 U.S.C. section 107, this material is distributed without charge or profit to those who have expressed a prior interest in receiving this type of information for non-profit research and educational purposes only.
