the following is an excerpt from a bit i did while on tour from ‘98 to ‘02:

“you know what i don’t get? have you guys seen this new sacagawea coin they’ve just come out with? i mean, come on! what is this!?!? were the indians ever known for being good with money? no!!!! that’s why it was so much fun bargaining with them! what did they sell manhattan for? like, a beer and a dollar in nickels to play the slots? and this was to the dutch! imagine if a jew had gotten a crack at ‘em!

this is ridiculous! geronimo’s probably yelling “geronimooooooo!!!” in his grave right now.

okay, why is only this side of the room laughing? oh… when did you three gentlemen walk in? well, i’ve got just the joke for you: an indian, a dutchman and a jew walk into a club…”

    as a Dutch Indian Jew I take offence to this.

    with all due respect, mr. silverstein, if you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen.

    you need more hecklers.

    “you suck!”

    hey, you know the guys over at “the lonely island,” http://www.thelonelyisland.com/? well, they had a little personal video humor show going, too. and it landed them a pilot. how come you guys don’t have a pilot? could it be because “you suck?”

    and what’s the deal with that airline food, anyway?

    answer to your question: airplanes don’t have kitchens.

    and if by “a pilot” you mean “alcohol problems,” then i guess you could say we’ve been “picked up” for a “full 22 episode order.”

  8. 8 anthony

    “canceled.”

    The lonely island sucks dick, deal or not. That is why they got picked up by SNL because they are not funny.
