| 1323953 | 2013-01-21 01:42:00 | I think he'd stand up pretty well... I remember years ago watching three programs of a series in which they had a well known personality was in front of three American comedians and the longer that person could hold off laughing the more they made for a charity. I could have made a mint for charity as I didn't laugh in one of them. |

| 1323954 | 2013-01-21 01:52:00 | Robert Benchley was a humorous writer rather than a stand-up comedian. He wrote for magazines like Vanity Fair and the New Yorker. He was also a member of the famous Algonquin Hotel Round Table that included people like Dorothy Parker ("men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses", "brevity is the soul of lingerie", "She runs the gamut of emotions from A to B." etc). He also appeared in quite a few films. Unfortunately alcohol got him in the end and he died in 1945. | Tony (4941) | ||

| 1323957 | 2013-01-23 01:22:00 | Catholic Heart Attack You don't have to be Catholic to appreciate this one!!! A man suffered a serious heart attack while shopping in a store. The store clerks called 911 when they saw him collapse to the floor. The paramedics rushed the man to the nearest hospital where he had emergency open heart bypass surgery. He awakened from the surgery to find himself in the care of nuns at the Catholic Hospital he was taken to. A nun was seated next to his bed holding a clip board loaded with several forms, and a pen. She asked him how he was going to pay for his treatment. "Do you have health insurance?" she asked. He replied in a raspy voice, "No health insurance." The nun asked, "Do you have money in the bank?" He replied, "No money in the bank." "Do you have a relative who could help you with the payments?" asked the irritated nun. He said, "I only have a spinster sister, and she is a nun." The nun became agitated and announced loudly, "Nuns are not spinsters! Nuns are married to God." The patient replied, "Perfect. Send the bill to my brother-in-law." __________ |
