         The problem I have with this and most other blonde jokes: It's 
just not funny. It doesn't help my sense of humor that in such jokes those 
of us who are naturally so are lumped together with the vain, the silly, 
the shallow, and the phony. It is as if being blonde is somehow an 
impediment to intelligence and that this impediment can be acquired with 
Nice n' Easy. It is that underlying assumption that makes it hard for me to 
find such jokes funny. I don't require political correctness on this. I 
don't want to undermine anyone's fun. But, I do like them to be funny. If 
you have any really good ones, let me know.
