MessageID: S917.2da5@clarinet.com#1/1
--- keywords: original, newsgroups: rec.humor.funny I heard on the radio this morning that John Wayne Bobbitt is trying to get back together with Lorena. There's just one question... CAN'T HE TAKE A HINT!!! -- Selected by Jim Griffith. MAIL your joke to funny@clari.net. Attribute the joke's source if at all possible. A Daemon will auto-reply. Remember: PLEASE spell check and proofread your jokes. You think I have time to hand-correct everybody's postings?
I'm no longer doing stand-up (not in clubs, anyway), but I still occasionally have the urge to write stuff down that I think might be funny on stage. Whether or not it's funny in writing is a different story. Stand-up material is hard to deliver without inflections and facial expressions. And whether or not an audience would laugh at this new material is something I may never know. All of this, by the way, is an awful way to set-up new material. Please disregard it, and read on...
Don't you hate it when the introduction is longer than the act?!
