Date: Sun, 25 Apr 1999
Good Morning y'all, here is this week's Traffic Report. This is the Weekly Traffic Report normally sent to all of the HUMOR LIST subscribers once a month.
This is the final Traffic Report for me to the UGA HumorList. Due to a number of projects, I found I no longer had the time to commit to the List and do what I felt was a proper job. I submitted my resignation to Jay Harman, the ListOwner, on the 18th and made it effective April 30.
Jay chose to make it effective immediately with a message in the April 20 - April 21st Digest. In that message he said it was decided to eliminate the Traffic Reports; thus, this one was not posted to the List, but I am posting it here for Archival Purposes.
The UGA Humor Archives site will remain on line, the 1999 files will end with April 30th however. I will continue to work on and post the rest of the older archives (1993 - June thru Dec 1996), but posting may not resume until this Fall.
It's been great knowing y'all and am happy to report that since March, the membership is now increasing.
Keep Smilin'

To verify current addresses, our ListServer randomly selects subscribers and sends an e-mail to verify the addresses. Subscribers need take no action when such a message is received.
Errors returned from your Server may cause your name to be dropped from the list or set to "no mail". If you have stopped receiving mail from the ListServer, verify your settings with "query humor" (see above) or re-subscribe. You won't receive duplicate mailings to the same address; if you are subscribed, it will be verified.
Complete sets of the HUMOR LIST DIGESTS for Jan-May 1996; 1997-1998, and Jan-Apr 1999 with the "Subject" indexed for easy searching are found at:

Also on the CrossWinds page, a section is maintained to list any member's personal Home Page. The categories are "Humor" and "Misc". Please e-mail JimJr@qis.net with your request to be listed.
MESSAGE BOARD:
A HUMOR LIST rule has always been no discussion on the mailings. This is as it should be. People who subscribe to a joke list expect jokes, not banter. But as an alternate, a Message Board is now available to ALL members (and guests) who wish to comment on previously posted jokes or those who enjoy a forum format:
This site is intended as a place to leave messages or questions for the ListOwners; it is not an alternate site to post jokes, but places for messages intended for the entire membership. The site provides free publicity and exposure for the List.
And now for a contribution of humor:
I had the worst dream the other night. I had died and found myself alone in a room with a pure white glowing light. A spirit enters, hands me a ream of papers, and said, "JimJr, we've checked-out your life. Here are the best 10,000 jokes ever written."
I smiled, thanked him and said, "Boy ! I really did make it to Heaven after all."
He grinned one of the most evil smiles I'd ever seen and replied, "Think so ??? Try to find an audience."
