As someone who is gay and I was disappointed to receive the following as
part of the digest;  yes, I "can take a joke" but I shouldn't have to take
that kind of joke.  If you don't see why it's offensive, try substituting
Hispanics or some other ethnic group... Ideally, I would like to see others
object as I would have done if an ethnic joke had been made.  I guess we'll
see.

Just thought I'de pass this on

One day a guy dies and finds himself in hell. As he is wallowing in
despair
 he has his first meeting with a demon...

 Demon: Why so glum, chum?

 Guy: What do you think? I'm in hell.

 Demon: Hell's not so bad. We actually have a lot of fun down
 here... You a drinkin' man?

 Guy: Sure I love to drink.

 Demon: Well you're gonna love Mondays then. On Mondays that's
 all we  do is drink. Whiskey, tequila, Guinness, wine coolers, Diet
 Coke and Fresca... we drink till we throw up and then we drink
 some more!

 Guy:  Gee that sounds great.

 Demon: You a smoker?

 Guy:  You better believe it!

 Demon: All right! You're gonna love Tuesdays. We get the finest
 cigars  from all over the world and smoke our lungs out! If you get
 cancer, no biggie-you're already dead, remember?

 Guy: Wow...that's....awesome!

 Demon: I bet you like to gamble.

 Guy: Why yes, as a matter of fact I do.

 Demon: Cause Wednesday you can gamble all you want. Craps,
 Blackjack, Roulette, Poker, Slots, whatever... If you go
 Bankrupt...well, you're dead anyhow.

 Demon: You into drugs?

 Guy: Are you kidding? Love drugs! You don't mean...

 Demon: That's right! Thursday is drug day. Help yourself to a great
 big bowl of crack. Or smack. Smoke a doobie the size of a
 submarine.  You can do all the drugs you want and if ya over
 dose; that's right you're dead - who cares! OD!!

 Guy:  Yowza! I never realized Hell was such a swinging' place!!

 Demon: You gay?

 Guy: No.....

Demon: Ooooh, you're gonna hate Fridays <
