Probably entropy, I guess. Now look, I suppose it is the more liberal among
us who might be getting sensitive about some of the jokes told in here.

If I might make a suggestion, the best approach isn't to run away, it's to
fire one right back at 'em. Many of the conservatives among us get just as
offended as liberals do. Sometimes they have to have their sisters or wives
(some times the same person) explain the joke to them, though, so they know
they were offended. (see what I did there? Two little zingers in the same
joke) All in fun though.

Instead of getting all spun up, have some fun with it. Laugh at yourself,
laugh at the rest of us. Conservative and Liberals both do so much that is
funny.

But we need more middle of the road person jokes. Last one I heard was by
former Attny general Ashcroft who compared us to dead skunks. (in the middle
of the road)
