| | Comedians Ok, who is your favorite comedian?
Gotta say Bill Mauher. Simply because he talks about real stuff, he doesn't put up with the bullcrap, and he doesn't sugar coat stuff... |

| | Brian Reagan. He is extremely funny and does it without cursing, putting anyone down, calling people names, or making racist remarks. He also seems to have no need to make jokes about women, sex, drugs, or politics. He is hillarious!!!
I do get a kick out of Chris Rock though.

| | Pinette does good food humor. Youtube has a bunch of his stuff. The Around the world in 80 buffets is pretty good.

| | 1. If you've ever seen Chris Rock perform is vignette "How not to get you _ss kicked by the Police" it absolutely cracks me up.
2. The HBO special Bill Hicks "UFO Tour".
3. Almost anything by the late Richard Pryor.

| | Phil Hartman was a genius!
Got to second George Carlin.
Jeff Dunham cracks me up.
I also really like Lewis Black and Ron White, at the moment, but there are so many (John Candy, Chevy Chase, Richard Pryor, Carol Burnett, the list goes on). |

| | Love Billy Connely (have you seen the movie "Still Crazy"? It's about a bunch of aging rock star doing a reunion tour. He's hysterical!)
Eddie Izzard also cracks me up-especially the "When Jesus Met the Dinosaurs" bit.
MY current favorite is Margaret Cho-not only does she push the envelope, she tears it into pieces! |

Anyone except Billy Connolly (who I used to LOVE when he was younger and FRESH) - I remember seeing him when he was a member of the Humblebums - a Scottish folkie type band. Another member was Gerry Rafferty of Baker Street fame!
