The way to do it is simple. You get a group of people who are in the "know" and one poor clod who isn't. You tell the No Soap Radio Joke and everyone in the "know" starts breaking up laughing while the poor clod sits there wondering what was so funny( in case you didn't notice, there is nothing funny about that joke). More often than not the clod will start laughing along with everyone else. Everybody in the know then abruptly stops laughing, leaving the clod to realize that the joke is on him. This is the worlds only non-funny joke that is funny. I didn't want it to get mistaken for all of the non-funny jokes that really are non-funny that appear on the net. John Eaton !hplabs!hp-pcd!john
