Crude Joke at ESA

Me:

   I agree with you, Amy.  I didn't hear the joke
told, but I did read about it on the list.  That joke
was very tasteless to tell at the expense of a
thirteen-year-old boy *and* in front of room full of
people!  My husband wondered whether the
erection-reference of the joke went over Daniel
Radcliffe's head, but I told him it's unlikely that he
didn't get the rudeness behind the joke.  
   I did like how Dan Radcliffe made his comment about
having spent lots of time on a broom while giving his
presentation as almost a reference back to that joke.
Maybe Daniel made that comment to get the joke-teller
back for that joke *or* maybe he even referenced
broomsticks again because he found that off-color joke
funny?   I seriously doubt it, but as I was never a
thirteen-year old boy and my son is now only Radcliffe
 nine, I wouldn't know for sure.
