Still more Afghan/WTC jokes. These are jokes which are funny, but which didn't really warrant posting separately. I post such a digest whenever I have enough entries to warrant it. Particularly selective readers will probably not enjoy the digests, and may want to killfile RHF jokes with "Digest" in the title - ed.

The latest casualty in the terrorist strikes are
two postal workers in DC who've died of Anthrax,
thereby incurring the wrath of the entire
U.S. Postal Service. May God have
mercy on the souls of the terrorists.

Seen on signs along the road from Kabul recently:
IT'S OVER NOW
THEY KICKED OUR ASSES
TIME TO HEAD
FOR THE MOUNTAIN PASSES
BUT BEFORE WE GO
INTO THE CAVES
LET'S LOSE THE BEARDS
WITH BURMA SHAVE

I just received this email from my brother in Northfield Minnesota, following
Wednesday night's blizzard:
Nick came down the stairs this morning and said to me: I don't want to
alarm you, Dad, but there's a white powdery substance all over the ground. . .

The Canadians are helping the United States with the war on terrorism. They
pledged two of their biggest battle ships, 600 ground troops, and six fighter
jets.
After the exchange rate, we ended up with one canoe, two Mounties, and a
flying squirrel.

[heard on the BBC]
Britain's only Islamic standup comedienne found performing in English
pubs a bit of a challenge even before September 11th, so how does she
break the ice now?

>Subject: Terrorists in YOUR WORKPLACE!
Warning - Authorities have recently been informed of four possibile
terrorists in your workplace. Three individuals were apprehended: bin
Sleepin, bin Drinkin and bin Loafin. The fourth suspect was not on the
premises and authorities have reason to doubt he ever had ties to the
business: bin Workin.

My wife, who isn't a big news hound, has recently begun to teach
herself HTML. Last night, I turned on CNN Headline News for some
information about the plane crash in NYC.
Annie hadn't seen the "new" CNN Headline News design since it went
live a few months ago, but something the anchor said made her turn
>from the computer and look at the TV.
Her response?
"Oooh! Frames!"

Osama bin Ladin unwittingly repeated history when he used a phrase
uttered by Gen. Custer, "Where did all these fucking Tomahawks come
from?"

>From a Yahoo News report:
"India said a man arrested on suspicion of being linked with Osama bin
Laden's al Qaeda network had confessed to plans to carry out suicide
attacks in Britain, Australia and India after September 11."
Does this guy know what "suicide attack" means? Most people can only do it
once.
