Garrison Keilor on PHC occasionally gives some good Minnesota/Iowa jokes;
growing up in South Dakota, it never occurred to us to joke about North
Dakotans-- it was simply off the map.

When I lived in NYC in the 60s, the nastiest jokes involved Puerto Ricans.
I got a travelling job and spent a lot of time in Chicago, where they were
telling the same jokes, but amended to Poles.  PC example:  "Why is the
suicide rate so low in (ethnic slur of your choice) neighborhoods?  Because
you can't jump out of a basement window."

LOL.  That's the sort of thing my Gwrs would tell on the Kash!!  The Kash
might have:

Shenji's (a Kash name) house was on fire.  He made sure his wife and kids
got out, then ran back in to save the ancestor's portraits....
Ching Cha's (a Gwr name) house was on fire.  He ran to save his computer,
but just before unplugging it, decided he ought to sit down and figure out
how long it would take the house to burn......
