The other day, when we were moving into our new desks I ran across one of Ross's files that I needed to learn more about. The tab on the file read "Comedy Routine." Wow. I had no idea that Ross was interested in becoming a stand-up comedienne. My husband has a lot of talents but I wouldn't really put telling jokes at the top of that talent list. I sneakily looked in his file to see just what type of jokes Ross had in mind as being part of his stand up comedienne routine. For example:
1) Who is really impressed with an award-winning _____?
2) Only the finest and freshest ingredients-you never see who uses the cheapest and grossest ingredients (a good point but not necessarily a knee slapper).
3) Silly phrases at work such as "touch base" and "roll out."
4) You can pretty much get away with anything on the road-if you waive after you do it. (This is true, I have the waive patented). . . if only that works when being pulled over.
5) What is the freaking deal with ivory soap--99% pure of what?
I love my husband and will support him in anything he does--but at this point I hope he doesn't quit his day job.

I think Ross stole those ideas from Kenny Bania. (They're gold, Jerry!) Those jokes must have gotten rusty sitting in that drawer all these years. They just need some fine tuning and then he is ready to go on that reality show to find America's next top comedian.
Why do they call it Ovaltine? Why not Roundtine?
I'm glad Bania is alive and living in Chicago.
Lindy, Kenny said he would meet you and Mendy's for a meal. They have the best swordfish in the city. The best, Lindy!
