Dear Garrison Keillor,

I would love an autographed photo!

I used to think you were funny, but your jokes are just stale and old now. Isn't it time for some new material? Let's retire the whole sponsored by ketchup, making fun of Norwegian's and Lutherans, and powdermilk biscuits and such.

You could move on to other food groups, nationalities, and religions! I mean come on, even a bad Jew joke is usually funnier than anything you have to say about the Norwegians. If you just branched out a little, you could hit the blacks, Chinese, and even the damn Dutch! And as far as religions go, have you looked into what those "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" people believe? Talk about jokes that write themselves! I'm always up for laughing at some clever Catholic bashing. Muslims, Shakers & Quakers, Methodists, Hindus, Buddhists, and etc.! The list goes on nearly forever, but I think we can agree you're pretty much scraping the bottom of the barrel with the Lutheran jokes.

Of course, I realize if your retire your current stchick you won't have much left, so maybe it's time to join them in retirement? If not, consider taking on the above. Sorry I don't have any recommends for food jokes, but those have never been funny anyway.

Sincerely,

Christopher L. Jorgensen
