The post you are reporting:
After much navel gazing and soul searching we have decided to drop the Jokes Page from our setup. Its had a good run and was very popular with nearly 60,000 viewers and many many hilarious jokes. So with some reluctance we now let it go.
This joke tickled my recent fancy...hilarious, as were many others.
the following from Steve Power in the USA..
****************************************************
How to wash a cat.
1. Put both lids of the toilet up and add 1/8 cup of pet shampoo to the water in the bowl...
2. Pick up the cat and soothe him while you carry him towards the bathroom.
3. In one smooth movement put the cat in the toilet and close the lid. You may need to stand on the lid.
4. At this point the cat will self agitate and make ample suds. Never mind the noises that come from the toilet, the cat is actually enjoying
this!
5. Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a 'Power-Wash' and 'Rinse'.
6. Have someone open the front door of your home. Be sure that there are no people between the bathroom and the front door.
7. Stand well back, behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift the lid.
8. The cat will rocket out of the toilet, streak through the bathroom, and run outside where he will dry himself off.
9. Both the toilet and the cat will be sparkling clean.
Yours Sincerely
The Dog

But the page has often been controversial because of some of its content. It even went national one time, with national newspaper and TV coverage, but for all the wrong reasons. These are very politically correct times and offensive or near offensive material doesnt wash out there in the real world anymore. We see people lose jobs across the spectrum in these stricter times for saying the wrong thing.
We have had various problems with some of its content and some problems quite recently too. Even the harmless Irish pic at the top of the page, and me being Irish I didnt find anything wrong with it, is not acceptable anymore. The Jokes Page can still be seen in All Recent Features but will eventually slip away as it cannot be added to.
Members can tell Jokes in the Forum with no problem..but obviously no racial or offensive material.
