O.K. folks. There's still time to call in. Let's go to the phone lines. Lets see who has a punch line. Bob, who's next? What, no one is waiting? All the lines are empty? Um, wow. O.K. Well, then let's, uh, see. O.K. I'll call mom. She'll have a punch line.

Man, and normally tumor jokes just write themselves. Who among us doesn't enjoy a bit of tumor humor?
