Subject: HumorList Weekly Traffic Report
Good Morning y'all, here I am with this week's Traffic Report. This is the Weekly Traffic report that is sent to all of the HumorList subscribers once a month.
Just as an FYI for y'all, there are now 270 established e-mail joke lists. I see more added almost daily in NewsGroups/UseNet. Since most people only have a limited amount of time for jokes (or anything else), a list, to be selected by a new reader, has to offer something unique. That's where y'all come in.
Beginning April 1st (April Fool's Day) the UGA HumorList is proud to announce we're declaring "Every Member Get A Member Month."
The reason should be obvious. If we are indeed one of the most unique, open and diverse humor mailing lists, why not spread the word ? I hope y'all will choose to participate in this effort.

And now for a contribution of humor:
My Uncle Dave was a real World War II hero, but with the passage of time, stories tend to grow. He started one nite after a family dinner to tell his famous "Pillbox" story.
"There I was, on the island of Cebu, pinned down by pillbox fire and saw eighteen Japanese soldiers advancing on me..."
At that point my Aunt interrupted and said, "David ! The last time you told the boys that story, it was a dozen enemy soldiers."
Without pausing he replied, "Yes. But they were too young then to know the whole horrible truth."
E-mail me if your country is not listed here.
