    He was a great old-style comedian - the monologues but using a phone as a prop. A classic was the new security guard at the Empire State Building trying to tell his boss about King Kong and asking what to do.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
