I don't remember his name but this was told by a stand up who was on Conan the other day. It makes me laugh. Like a lot.

"A horse walks into a bar. Bartender says, 'It's probably not a good idea that you're in here, you're a very large animal, any sudden movements and you may injure somebody. I don't know why you're here. None of the glasses are ergonomically designed for you to drink from them. So, you should probably leave.'"

That does sound like something I'd laugh at. A lot.

The only other bit I remember is that he wanted to go on Who Wants to be a Millionaire, and be one of those people that comes to the right answer, but for completely wrong reasons.

Who was president during WWII?

Monroe, Jefferson, Lincoln, or Roosevelt.

"Well, I know it wasn't Lincoln, because WWII was in the 1900s, and Lincoln wasn't president until later...Monroe...that's not actually a president, I don't think, Jefferson had defected to Italy by then, so...Roosevelt?" "...Correct." "YAY!"

If it were, I would have linked you. :-/ Also, I kind of BSed my way through that, because I don't remember the specifics, just the gist of the joke.

I just Googled and the first joke is in here apparently, but you living in Canadia might mean you can't see it...

You're right, I can't watch that. But I did find a clip of him on TheComedyNetwork.

Damn foreigners, trying to watch our vids. I found this, it's a boot of a show he did. Haven't listened yet, though.
