Didn't another active list-poster get hammered by somebody for posting
something humorous? A whole snit about "off-topic" resulted, and
feelings were hurt (but this person is more mature than most and
didn't "leave"....)
Brian, I'm not slamming you, I'm just pointing this out. To be
"FAIR"....IS the same person who complained before going to step up
and complain about "off-topic" humor posted now? 

Personally Brian, I don't care if you post stuff like this, and it was
funny :-), Just defending a friend.
