"This essay is actually the work of Lori Borgman and was first published in
the Indianapolis Star on 15 March 1998."

Christ, Peter, can't you come up with ANYTHING current? Or even HALFWAY
funny?

Here's another joke about Peter:

Peter went into a butcher shop and asked for a two-pound salami. The butcher
weighed out the sausage, then put it into the machine and began slicing it.
"Hey, stop that!" Peter shouted. "What do you think I am, a slot machine?"

First, it's funny.
Second, I don't give a damn if it had been published before.
Third, the not-even-halfway-funny crap was all yours.

Not funny. Most politically-based humor has a shelf life of mere weeks
before it's no longer funny, with the possible exception of jokes about
Mussolini.
