I watched that movie again last night … The Aristrocrats. Basically, it’s documentary about about one of the oldest jokes done by comedians since the vaudeville days .. called “The Aristocrats”. If you haven’t heard of this before, it’s really about the art of story telling among comedians, trying to make the other one vomit, laugh, be disgusted and .. well .. here’s the blurb on it..
This is a documentary about a joke. It is a joke only told by comedians to other comedians. The outline of the joke is that a man goes into an agent’s office and says he has a family act. He then either acts out or describes the most obscene acts possible. The stunned agent says, “And what do you call yourselves?” and the man answers, “The Aristocrats.” Each comedian describes how he tells the story. Each is different, each tries to get an element of surprise out of their listeners, who are assumed to be other comedians….
It’s quite funny .. BUT –> The funniest tale (after knowing the story as told by the previous comedians in the movie) ..was made by Steven Banks aka Billy the Mime, playing himself as Billy the Mime - MIMING the Aristocrat Joke .. and here it is - You should be able to get the general theme of this joke!

I am playing with Wordpress 2.0.5 and widgets. I am also playing with a new plugin that I will discuss only if this works! But .. Shhh! It’s a feed and RSS type of plugin!
I was at Giant Tiger the other day .. and they were having a special on toilet paper. Although, I do not do the regular shopping around here (my wife does that) .. I think I can recognize a deal when I see one. Here it was:
“Sam Has 7 Friends” is the story of Samantha Breslow as she searches for life, love, happiness, and an acting career in Los Angeles.
Sam’s life is on display. She spends time with her boyfriend Patrick, hangs out with her best friend Dani, quarrels with with her agent Roman, avoids her ex-boyfriend Willie - all while being unknowingly watched by her neighbor Scott.
The weather has been cold lately in Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada. We’ve had minus temperatures, snow .. but today we reached a high of 14c (yesterday was a high of 9c). Tonight it will be minus4c.
But that didn’t stop me! I am wearing
* Summer Shorts
* My Croc Sandals
* NO JACKET
* NO SOCKS!
There was a civic election here in Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada - and our Mayor Sam Katz got elected for another four years. Get This…
Voter turnout was near an all-time low, with 171,395 votes cast on Wednesday — about 38 per cent of the 450,000 registered voters in the city. In the 2002 civic election, 48.7 per cent of eligible voters cast ballots.
THE REASON THERE WAS A LOW TURNOUT BECAUSE NOBODY KNEW WHERE TO VOTE OR WHEN TO VOTE AND FELT THEY WEREN’T ON ANY REGISTERED VOTER LIST YOU IDIOTS.
