...and so comedy must be about the telling of a truth or truths in a protracted way that surprises us all. I myself have never enjoyed comedy and laughed only one time, by accident, while trying desperately to fart during summer band camp in the summer of 1974. It there that I learned several George M. Cohan tunes on the trombone. An outrageous act at the time. But I digress. vonHummer
