Suddenly, someone knocked on the window.
The driver rolled down the window and asked, "What's going on?"
"Terrorists have kidnapped Congress! They are asking for a $10 million dollar
ransom or they are going to douse them all in gasoline and set them
on fire. We are going from car to car, taking up a collection."
"How much is the average donation?" the driver asked.
"About a gallon."
**Disclaimer: this is neither a pro- nor an anti-party topic; as of this time, in the collection period, no politicians or their relatives, friends or pets have been harmed herewith.**
