Subject: RE: Help: Scottish humor sought
Thanks, everyone. I see some jokes I could use at a festival -- the joke about the fisherman, perhaps the one about the flies in the beer.

As for jokes like those about the bodhran made from an Englishman's skin, quite frankly, I've lost too many relatives to wars caused by European factionalism to be amused by that kind of thing. It's time to let that stuff die out.

I don't get the joke about the cake vs meringue at the tea shop at all. Perhaps it's incomplete.
