Offensive Joke Consortium Offers Reward for Discovery of New Ethnic Group

Nantucket:  In an effort to remain a vital force among comedians the Offensive Joke Consortium or OJC have determined that it is imperative that they discover a new group to vilify.  "Think of a group of people...now think of a new joke...it can't be done!" says Mark Wenderbrook spokesperson for the OJC.  "All of the jokes have been written.  It is really hard (that's what she sa...sorry, occupational hazard) to come up with new material.  After years of government sponsored research, and billions of dollars, we have come to the conclusion that it would be beneficial to discover a new group of people."

The OJC's national convention had several heated debates over the key issues of sinking all of their money into research and development of new material or setting aside a sizable amount as a reward for an exciting discovery.  After weeks of wrangling, the consortium has determined that it would be best to continue to work with the material they already have but remain hopeful and offer a reward of 25 to 30 million on a sliding scale."Well sure, any new group can be worked with from a ridicule standpoint but to get the full reward we would like to see a really odd social custom or a pronounced facial feature." claims Wenderbrook. 

The OJC implores you, explorers and anthropologists alike, get searching for a new people!  Your next trip to a comedy club, or a junior high school, could depend on it.
