Great to see the other side of you, Tim. I'm one of the Daily Humor group and, after seeing your profile page, I don't think I'll have any problem with your management of this group. My only concern was that the jokes be kept clean. Since you're already clowning around with children, you are well aware that jokes needn't be anything but clean. Red Skelton NEVER told a shadey joke. It pains me to know that my hometown, Peoria, IL., is also the hometown of Richard Pryor and that they even named a street after him. Peoria was also the hometown of Fibber McGee & Molly of radio-comedy days but there's nothing there that's dedicated to them. Red Skelton was so dedicated to keeping his comedy clean that when the PTA approached him about his skit which was called "The Mean Little Kid", he complied with their suggestion and ceased to perform it. (In it, he'd mimick a little boy saying, "If I dood it, I'll get a spanking ... I'll dood it!") He took it completely out of his repetoire forever. Well, thanks again, Tim.
