A new book about humor under the Nazis gives some interesting insights into life in the Third Reich and breaks yet another taboo in Germany's treatment of its history. Jokes told during the era, says the author, provided the populace with a pressure release. Hitler was the butt of numerous jokes during the Third Reich.
Hitler visits a lunatic asylum. The patients give the Hitler salute. As he passes down the line he comes across a man who isn't saluting.
'Why aren't you saluting like the others?' Hitler barks.
'Mein Fuhrer, I'm the nurse,' comes the answer. 'I'm not crazy!'
