Traffic jam

[phkrause]

So I’m stuck in a traffic jam....

Nothing is moving. Suddenly, a man knocks on my window. I roll down the window and ask, "What's going on?" he says "Terrorists have kidnapped Congress, and are asking for a $10 million dollar ransom. Otherwise, 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 everyone giving, on average?" I ask. The man replies, "About a gallon."

ps: to the moderator, I know this is a joke and should be in the humor section, but it seemed to be very political. Anyway if you want to move it, that's fine.
