* With a loud "ploppp", Peet emerges from the top of the fountain at high velocity, following a narrow but graceful arc before landing with a splash amongst the goldfish at the bottom *
Oops (gurgle)

Ah - good point. At the moment I'm mainly doing LOADS of Law jokes for the (as yet not up) "So Long And Thanks For Laughing" Joke Archive.

Well, we're trying to make a good archive - so far it's just me

I can only remember crude ones anyway, so I'll be no use.

Bluebottle Posted Dec 15, 1999
Yes, we're trying not to have too many dirty ones, if any.
Afterall, there are 12 year olds on line... Not that they haven't already heard them

Thanks for the contribution.
If you have lots of jokes, please write them on an article for "So Long, And Thanks For Laughing".

Bluebottle Posted Dec 18, 1999
Oh well, never mind.
You could just collect loads of cracker ones, type them up and post them - but that's likely to be a wasted effort!
(Has anyone EVER laughed at a cracker joke?)

Only once to my knowledge, and that was when the reader fell off his chair half way through the joke.
