What a great start to 2005.
We're kicking off the year with an exciting interview with the 2nd best
humor writer in the world. Stepping down due to pressures from
Speechboosters, Dave Barry joins me now with his concession interview.
So Dave, I finally got to you?
|
|
Dave: |
|
What did
you say your name is? |
| |
|
|
| Bob: |
|
OK. Why am I not
surprised that a guy who lives in Florida is the last to know? So
you really don't know who I am? |
|
Dave |
|
Wait a
minute. You're the guy who pulled a cow out of your nose.
|
| |
|
|
| Bob: |
|
Oh nose jokes. That's a
step up from booger jokes. I guess to be technical, a nose joke
would be "outside" your area of expertise. Actually Dave,
I'm a big fan of yours. What advice do you have for an
undiscovered funny guy like me?
|
|
Dave: |
|
Well
surrounding yourself with cows, outhouses, and boogers couldn't hurt. |
| |
|
|
| Bob: |
|
Bad visual on that one Dave.
What else ya got?
|
|
Dave: |
|
You need
a catchy phrase like my "I'm not making this up". |
| |
|
|
| Bob: |
|
.How about something like
"There's ducks in my shoes"? |
|
Dave: |
|
Needs
work. You used to be funnier.
|
| |
|
|
| Bob: |
|
I suppose there's many people
writing the Miami Herald trying to fill your vacancy.
|
|
Dave: |
|
There's
that one Jewish woman who claims to be my identical twin. |
| |
|
|
| Bob: |
|
I thought Mr. "T" was your
identical twin. |
|
Dave: |
|
It's true. While he was
pitying fools, I was writing about them. |
| |
|
|
| Bob: |
. |
Well I can only hope I can be
half as funny as you are someday. |
|
Dave: |
|
Now, or when I used to be funnier? |
| Bob: |
|
You're perpetually funny Dave.
I have to admit, I'd be interested in your old job myself, but there's
some aspects that would worry me. |
|
Dave: |
|
What's that? |
| Bob: |
|
Well I get a little nervous
when men's rooms get crowded. There's thousands of people that
take you to the restroom with them. I'm not sure I could handle
that. Dave, do what ya gotta do. Ride that bull, marry
Britney, be the first guy to pogo stick to the North Pole, but come back
soon. We need you. |
