HUMOR Digest - 31 Dec 1998 to 1 Jan 1999

Date: Thu, 31 Dec 1998 03:53:24 -0500
From: Jim Moore Jr
Subject: New Year's Resolutions

Some suggested New Year's Resolutions for e-mail humor users:

* Wait at least three days before re-posting anything which has already appeared at
    least 1,117 times previously

* Begin a movement to insist that appropriate prizes are awarded for the longest jokes

* Contact your ListOwner(s) frequently complaining about other posts or posters;
   they get paid well to resolve these things

* Remember that even if you should accidently delete 3 years of collected jokes the
   ListOwner(s) will be happy send them to you

* Carefully check all posts for grammatical and/or spelling errors and flame each poster
   who would dare be so careless

* Remember that all historical facts and references are vital to the punch line of each joke;
   insist they be authentic & accurate

* Don't promote any list you are on; keep it a secret so you can send out the jokes later
   to friends claiming them as your own

* Always include your personal opinion/critique of the joke; many others can benefit from
   your wisdom and expert leadership

* List all phone numbers, pagers, faxes, mailing addresses (both personal and business) --
   many readers will want to contact you

* Select some "tag line" and always include it as your trademark; vary the line every seven
   thousand posts or so

* Change your address at least monthly and request the ListOwner(s) to correct the files
   so you won't have to bother with all those inane ListServer Commands

* Be sure to post any "forward" you receive with the >>>>>> intact; it causes the reader
   to think "This MUST be funny stuff" to have been resent so often

* Never submit any joke dealing with religion, politics, handicaps, social standing, sexual
   superiority/orientation, national origin, race, weight/height/appearance, or anything else
   that might offend anyone else anywhere in the world
