I keep hearing all the bad news about the statins.  I expect to see a post
that the statins are responsible for the bad effects from Hurricane Katrina.

I know that you are trying to be funny. It's obvious that you have no
compassion for the many victims of statins. If you visited a hospital and
had a conversation with a patient that suffered from statin induced
rhabdomyelosis, would you tell the patient your joke? Don't you realize
that people suffering from statin induced medical problems might be
offended by your joke?

Since you enjoy humor--visit this site:

Or alternatively you'll find that, unlike you, they have a sense of humour.
That is a strategy of coping, being able to laugh, even about your own
misfortune.

Do you tell racial jokes to members of racial groups mentioned in those jokes?
Do you tell blond jokes to blonds?
If I was dying of heart disease--I don't believe that I would laugh if the
joke was about a person that died as a result of heart disease.
Eventually, someone besides myself will be offended about your jokes.

Do you think being blonde is a misfortune?

Menno,
No. I only tell the following blond joke since it was printed in a
major magazine that is read by millions:

One blond is standing on one side of a creek (aka: small river) and
another blond is standing on the other side of the same creek.
One blond shouts to the other blond:
"How do I get to the other side of this creek?"
The other blond thinks for about 5 minutes and shouts back:
"You are already on the other side of this creek."
