    Subject: Fw: Fwd: A short story
    but I don't think it would work in today's PC Atmosphere! I don't care who you are --- this is funny. This is a story of a 16 year-old boy from Tyler, Texas that won the World's Shortest Essay competition. He was awarded a scholarship at Texas A & M University for his imagination and humor. It's an example of absolute brilliance... A creative writing class was asked to write a concise essay containing the following elements: 1) Religion 2) Royalty 3) Physical Disability 4) Racism 5) Homosexuality The prize-winner wrote: "'My God", cried the Queen, "That one-legged nigger is a queer."

    This isn't funny; it's simply offensive. And I would ask that this forum r emains about airplanes. We don't need yet another place to trade political jabs.
