Have you heard/told a joke this week? (fwd)

[Julie K Daniels <Julie -dot- K -dot- Daniels-2 -at- TC -dot- UMN -dot- EDU>]

I know this is way, WAY off topic, but there seems to be a fair number of
jokes forwarded on this list, so I thought folks might be interested in
this survey by Minnesota Public Radio's "A Prairie Home Companion."
