Frank's question about the "hide-it-from-the-spouse" humor is best
explained by the inability of US-ers to discuss or joke about politics or
religion as adults, without getting weird [note recent flame wars here].
With ethnic and other put-down humor also verboten, pratically the only
safe subject is one's own foibles and one's own family!
