Here are more snippets from the one liner file. While preparing RHF,
I collect short jokes that aren't quite worthy of an individual posting
in the one liner file. Every so often I put digests of these out to
the group. (Beware that some readers, such as NN, will mistakenly
present all these items in the digest as individual articles.
Undigestification is a stupid kludge, but you have to live with it.)
These short items may contain swearing, mature themes and stereotypes.

Atlanta's sports teams are about as pitiful as one could hope. They
had a contest recently to choose a slogan for the Braves. One of
the entries read, "Go, Braves! And take the damn Falcons with you!"
