Some people say there are certain subjects you can't "joke" about. Others will say that humor can enhance our understanding of difficult issues. It's a tricky balance. Keeping in mind I wrote this over twenty years ago, I'm not sure I landed on the right side of the line here. Please know my attempt at humor is not meant to minimize anyone's suffering.
