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 Humor List subscribers once a month.

As of this writing only a few brave souls have posted to our new Message Board     www.InsideTheWeb.com/mbs.cgi/mb212137    Now remember, this board is intended for discussing previously posted jokes, not flaming or posting new jokes. It could also be a good forum for any humor related topics.

Recently, a good number of requests have been received for jokes previously posted. May I remind y'all that's one of the main reasons we have an archive. You don't even have to remember the URL, I post it each and every day as a sig file after my jokes.

Complete Digests for 1997 and 1998 (to date) are always available (normally the same day the Digests are sent out) at:

To verify current addresses, our server 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 to our ListServer may cause your name to be dropped from the list. If you feel, at any time, that you have been dropped from the list, or have stopped receiving mail from the ListServer, simply resubscribe.

You will not receive duplicate mailings to the same address; if you are already subscribed, the ListServer will verify that.

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: www.InsideTheWeb.com/mbs.cgi/mb212137

It is NOT intended as a site to leave messages or questions for the ListOwners, nor is it an alternate site to post jokes, but a place for messages intended for the entire membership's viewing.


If you have any questions, please email me at jimjr@qis.net   ("QIS.NET")


And now for a contribution of humor:

In the US, the days between Thanksgiving and Christmas are known as the "Christmas Season". That pretty much equates to shopping for presents. One Yuppette invited another to go shopping with her, and the friend said, "I never shop until several days before. After all, how do you know who your friends will be at Christmas."
