Hey, I don't have a good sense of humor, I have an evil sense of humor- I
once did an entire standup set about Jack Kevorkian that didn't get a
single laugh from the audience. I think I lost them when I pointed out
that Kevorkian was unique in that fifty years after WWII, he gassed a
jewish woman... and got away with it.
