A lady came up to me on the street and pointed to my suede jacket.
|

"You know a cow was murdered for that jacket?" she sneered. I replied

|
|
have to kill you too."

|
|
----------
|

more difficult.

|
|
I like to go to concerts that are related, like Talking Heads with
|

I hate those windmills.

In Los Angeles, McDonalds quickly reacted to the highway shootings.
|
|
They came out with 'Happy To Be Alive Meals.' LA is a real strange
|
|
place. Even the Chinese Drivers honk me for driving too slow.
|
|
|
|
Kevin Rooney
|
|
------------
|
|
I have one of those real old American built cars. The kind that
|
|
just PUNCHES through accidents.

You just know when a relationship is about to end. My girlfriend
|
|
called me at work and asked me how you change a lightbulb in the

bathroom. "It's very simple," I said. "You start by filling up the
|
|
bathtub with water..."

a woman got pregnant, someone left town.

There are a lot of drunk people about to drive home, so drive as fast

|
as you can. It's harder for drunk people to hit you.

Oprah Winfrey has an incredible talent for getting the wierdest
|
|
people to talk to. And you just HAVE to watch it. "Blind, masochistic
|
|
minority, crippled, depressed, government latrine diggers, and the
|
|
women who love them too much on the next Oprah Winfrey."
|
|
|
|
You're a great crowd. No, you're not a crowd, you're a mob.
