O.J. Simpson: Canonical O.bligatory J.okes List [10/01/94] This is the Canonical List of O.J. Simpson jokes. Additions, corrections, and other comments regarding this list should be sent to me at: v120qldp@ubvms.cc.buffalo.edu This list will be posted on the first day of every month on rec.humor and alt.tasteless.jokes. If this list is stored on an ftp site, let me know and I'll put the site addresses here. You can get this list via WWW at: http://www.cs.odu.edu/~cashman/OJ.html I did some changes this month, mostly in an attempt to move stuff out of the miscellaneous group. I also moved some jokes out of one group and into another where I thought they'd be more appropriately filed. I only have time to Subject-scan the newsgroups, so if you post an O.J. joke, use a distinctive Subject line ("OJ" or "Simpson" is just fine). Feel free to mail me jokes, but don't waste my time by sending me jokes that are merely re-worded rather than original. John Elway the slow, white Bronco and Nicole the Pez Dispenser are already here. I'm not going to put differently-worded copies of the same joke on the list twice. I.
