Thank you Michael. Exquisitely stated.
Redemptive, really. I was beginning to wonder whether my irony was rusting.
Took me a moment to grasp your reference to PC wasn't to Personal
Computers...shows you I'm a throw back to a pre Politically Correct culture
when gallows humor left real rope burns on the necks of the survivors.
The EG satire was sent to me by a Jewish friend with CP, not on the list. I
take full responsibility for posting.
