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.
Only a handful of members have submitted their personal Web Pages to be listed on our Archives Web Site. While I cannot promise tons of additional "hits" for your page, we do have anywhere from 20 - 100 visitors per day. Please e-mail me if you're interested in having your personal page listed.
Remember, if you missed or [shudder] deleted a Digest, they're available (normally the same day the Digests are sent out) at:
JimJr
(* Indicates 2 Digests distributed on that date)
These are based on addresses registered to our listserver. It does not include addresses which receive the HUMOR LIST by other than direct mailings. The numbers include both concealed and non-concealed subscribers.
The HumorList is sent daily to the following countries:
Argentina, Australia, Austria, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Belarus, Belgium, Belize, Bermuda, Bhutan, Bolivia, Botswana, Brazil, Brunei, Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Cook Islands, Costa Rica, Croatia, Cuba, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, El Salvador, England, Estonia, Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, Fiji, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Guam, Guatemala, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Iran, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Jamaica, Japan, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Korea, Kuwait, Latvia, Lebanon, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macau, Macedonia, Malaysia, Malta, Mauritius, Mexico, Moldova, Morocco, Mozambique, Namibia, Nepal, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nigeria, Northern Ireland, Norway, Oman, Pakistan, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Qatar, Romania, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Scotland, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sri Lanka, Suriname, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Tanzania, Trinidad and Tobago, Tunisia, Turkey, Uganda, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, Uruguay, USA, Venezuela, Vietnam, Wales, Zambia, Zimbabwe

In order to verify current addresses, 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 to our ListServer may cause your name to be dropped from the list. If at any time, you have stopped receiving mail from the ListServer, simply resubscribe.
You will not receive duplicate mailings to the same address; if you are subscribed, that will be verified.
A partial set of the UGA Humor Digests (May 1996) and complete sets of the UGA Humor Digests for Jan-Apr 1996 and 1997-1999, with the "Subject" indexed for easy searching are found at:
www.oocities.org/BourbonStreet/6293 (zip files)
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:
UGA CLUB:
Assuming enough people participate, this could be a fun activity for all members. Yahoo has provided space for "clubs". The page
includes a message board, list of contacts, photo section, chat, and a calendar. You must join Yahoo (free) to use the service:
Neither site is intended as a place to leave messages or questions for the ListOwners; nor are they an alternate site to post jokes, but places for messages intended for the entire membership. Both sites provide free publicity and exposure for our List.
If you have any questions, please email me at jimjr@qis.net  ("QIS.NET")
And now for a contribution of humor:
I once had a highly qualified applicant for the position of Motor Equipment Operator with the State Highway Administration. When I reviewed his application though, I wasn't sure about hiring him.
One of the questions was: "Have you ever been arrested ?"
