of the x11 based games. I'm not going to tag the originals with bsd_44_lite and do this in two stages since it's just not worth it for this collection, and I've got directory renames to deal with that way. Bleah. Submitted by: jkh

The potentially offensive fortunes are not installed by default on BSD
|
|
systems. If you're absolutely, *positively*, without-a-shadow-of-a-doubt
|
|
sure that your user community wants them installed, whack the Makefile
|
|
in the subdirectory datfiles, and do "make all install".

Some years ago, my neighbor Avery said to me: "There has not been an
|
|
adequate jokebook published since "Joe_Miller", which came out in 1739 and
|
|
which, incidentally, was the most miserable no-good ... jokebook in the
|
|
history of the printed word."
|
|
In a subsequent conversation, Avery said: "A funny story is a funny
|
|
story, no matter who is in it - whether it's about Catholics or Protestants,
|
|
Jews or Gentiles, blacks or whites, browns or yellows. If a story is genuinely
|
|
funny it makes no difference how dirty it is. Shout it from the rooftops.
|
|
Let the chips fall all over the prairie and let the bonehead wowsers yelp.
|
|
... on them."
|
|
It is a nice thing to have a neighbor of Avery's grain. He has
|
|
believed in the aforestated principles all his life. A great many other
|
|
people nowadays are casting aside the pietistic attitude that has led them
|
|
to plug up their ears against the facts of life. We of The Brotherhood
|
|
believe as Avery believes; we have never been intimidated by the pharisaical
|
|
meddlers who have been smelling up the American landscape since the time of
|
|
the bundling board. Neither has any one of our members ever been called a
|
|
racist. Still, we have been in unremitting revolt against the ignorant
|
|
propensity which ordains, in effect, that "The Green Pastures" should never
|
|
have been written; the idiot attitude which compelled Arthur Kober to abandon
|
|
his delightful Bella Gross, and Octavius Roy Cohen to quit writing about the
|
|
splendiferous Florian Slappey; the moronic frame of mind which, if carried
|
|
to its logical end, would have forbidden Ring Lardner from writing in the
|
|
language of the masses.

|
... let us keep in mind the basic governing philosophy of The
|
|
Brotherhood, as handsomely summarized in these words: we believe in
|
|
healthy, hearty laughter -- at the expense of the whole human race, if
|
|
needs be.
|
|
Needs be.
