in a
crowded movie theatre?

Well, David Koresh is going to go down in the annals of
psychiatric
history.  He's the first person ever to have a 1400 acre Messiah
complex.
 
I can't believe that the FBI, with all its resources, didn't know
what
would happen once they sent the tanks in.  After all, even a
first-year
medical student knows that a compound fracture is always followed
by
an inflammation.

(Waco, April 21) "Yahweh" Koresh, who had been thought to have 
perished in the fiery inferno at the Koresh compound near this 
city, has reportedly been seen by several witnesses.
 
Koresh is reported to have appeared to the mayor of Hillsboro, a 
small town near Waco. Mayor Lance of Hillsboro has told reporters

that Koresh appeared at his back door. "He was a bit charred, but

other than that he didn't seem too bad," stated Lance. "He said 
that I owed him $20 and that he was 'making collections.'"
 
The pastry chef at the White House, Jacques LeFue, claims that he

saw Koresh through the back window of the White House kitchen. 
"Bill [Clinton] was out back sneaking a smoke away from Hillary, 
then I saw this sort of charred person amble up to Bill and offer

him a match," noted LeFue. According to LeFue, a startled Clinton

dropped his cigar and ran back to the White House. "Koresh ground

out the cigar stub with his bare heel and then just disappeared,"

adds LeFue.
 
When asked to comment on this, a visibly shaken Clinton begged 
reporters not to tell Hillary.
 
Koresh's third sighting occurred at the Federal correctional
facility in Lucasville, Ohio. Imam Ben-wowee, head of the 
rebellious inmates at that site, claims that Koresh walked into 
his prison cell and spoke to him. "He just walked right through 
the damn wall!" declared Ben-wowee. "The whole side of his face 
was all charred, but he was smiling like he was real happy!"
 
What did Koresh say to Mr. Ben-wowee? "At first he was just 
mumbling and I couldn't understand him," stated Ben-wowee. "But 
then it became more clear... he was saying that he wanted to 
finish his book."
 
When asked to comment, Federal officials declared that "no one 
could have lived through that blaze. Obviously someone must be 
going around impersonating Koresh." And, they added ominously, 
"Just wait until we get our hands on this wiseacre. He won't 
think it's so funny then."



Why couldn't the Branch Davidians go out to restaurants?
There was never enough room in the smoking section!


PC Update: (nee Oops Sorry) Lines to avoid for a
     BATF agent: "We just want to burn our bridges and put this
behind us"

Top Ten List of Shaggy Punch Lines for the taking:

10. Cultie on a Hot Tin Roof
9. (A BATF tank on a raid is like) Mrs. O'Leary's cow in a barn.
8. Torch Singer: I've got a flame in my heart . .
7. Now charged with illegal possession of fried arms.
6. There'll be a hot time in the compound tonight.
5. David Koresh: Yes there are real kids in the kiddie platter.
5a. You, heard me; I'll have the kiddie platter.
4. A Davidian in every pot (ash tray, urn).
3. A cult is just a cult, but the Branch Davidians are smoked.
2. Now we're cooking.

and 

1. I don't just want to get tanked, I want to get really toasted!

To which is followed up:
"One more time:
This is you" (pliable marshmallow)
Put on stick. Put over fire. (Allow to burn)
"This you after following a cult."

David Koresh is alive.
He was seen in a 7-11 with Elvis singing
"to all the girls we've loved before"
Morrison was playing accompanyment while
Gene Roddenberry was playing with the new water guns in the toy
isle.
The owner of the 7-11 ?  Salman Rushdie of course.
When asked why they were hanging out there, they said
"We're going on a road trip, we're just waiting for 
  Michael [Jackson]"

     "Jesus  Christ, that's a lot of federal agents."  
Reporter:  So the Feds are confused? 
Koresh:  Yeah.  They even messed up the name of the group.  We
     just want to get to Daytona for Spring Break, maybe hit Fort
     Lauderdale. 
Reporter:  You mean you're... 
Koresh:  That's right.  We're Branch Floridians. 
Reporter:  You mean you're not religious at all? 
Koresh:  We'll we might stop at a few clinics, tell some women
     how to live their lives, maybe shoot a few doctors, but

Cult Stand-off

Redwood City, CA (API) -- A tense stand-off entered its third
week today as authorities reported no progress in negotiations
with charismatic cult leader Steve Jobs.  Negotiators are
uncertain of the situation inside the compound, but some reports
suggest that half of the hundreds of followers inside have been
terminated.  Others claim to be staying of their own free will,
but Jobs' persuasive manner makes this hard to confirm.
In conversations with authorities, Jobs has given conflicting
information on how heavily prepared the group is for war with the
industry.  At times, he has claimed to "have hardware which will
blow anything else away", while more recently he claims they have
stopped manufacturing their own.
     Agents from the ATF (Apple-Taligent Forces) believe that the
group is equipped with serious hardware, including 486-caliber
pieces andpossibly Canon equipment.  The siege has attracted a
variety of spectators, from the curious to other cultists.  Some
have offered to intercede in negotiations, including a young man
who will identify himself only as "Bill" and claims to be the
"MS-iah".
     Former members of the cult, some only recently deprogrammed,
speak hesitantly of their former lives, including being forced to
work 20-hour days, and subsisting on Jolt and Twinkies.  There
were frequent lectures in which they were indoctrinated into a
theory of "interpersonal computing" which rejects traditional
roles.
     Late-night vigils on Chesapeake Drive are taking their toll
on federal marshals.  Loud rock and roll, mostly Talking Heads,
blares throughout the night.  Some fear that Jobs will fulfill
his own apocalyptic prophecies, a worry reinforced when the
loudspeakers carry Jobs' own speeches -- typically beginning with
a chilling "I want to welcome you to the 'Next World' ".
