Nanu Nanu

Niki got us free tickets to see Robin Williams at the Grand Garden Arena. I wasn't expecting much but had quite a few good laughs. Niki wasn't quite as impressed.
I was a bit disappointed to hear Williams steal another joke (who will build the border wall?). He has a history of joke theft so I have little respect for the guy. The odd thing was that this was a third hand joke. He stole it from Carlos Mencia who stole it from a relatively unknown comedian. If you have ever seen the Joe Rogan vs. Mencia clip on Youtube you know all about it.

I don't find Robin Williams all that funny. He talks so fast and goes off on so many tangents, it's almost too distracting. I like the real subtle dry humor, so he doesn't work too well for me. Steven Wright is more of my speed for stand up acts.

I went to a restaurant that serves "breakfast at any time." So I ordered French Toast during the Renaissance.

I didn't like William's standup until I saw his Live On Broadway show. That show and this one were pretty funny but I agree that his schizophrenic style can be annoying. I get tired of all the voices and frequent "God damn!". It's not something I would pay to see but I'm all to happy to watch it for free.

Robin Williams is one of my favorite comedians. I didn't know he does large scale comedy tours.
