He had a dog at one time. He poured Spot remover on the dog, and now it's gone.

Some of those old timers are a riot, always liked Gallagher - saw him in person twice.
The guy just had so much aplomb with his delivery and some of his analysis of everyday things' was hilarious; I think he died a few months back.

Some of those seemed original and not too shabby.

12 - OK, so what's the speed of dark?
Can't be exactly quantified because it's undergoing constant acceleration. It is faster than the speed of light beyond a specific distance but imperceptible at closer ranges. Currently claimed to be ~70 kps per megaparsec (last year it was ~65kps/Mpc). Defined as the expansion of space due to "dark energy".

The darkness however is not related to a shade of color, it's called dark because the cause is unknown. Not likely to be renamed until a consensus can be reached on the theory of what's causing it.

Don't say ya didn't ask

We saw Ralphie May, Bob Saget, Gallagher & Louie Anderson. They all died within a few weeks after we saw their show. Ralphie was the next day

I'm going to get a full body tattoo of me but taller.

I went to a restaurant that advertised "breakfast anytime," so I ordered French toast during the Renaissance.

It's a small world, but I wouldn't want to paint it.

I first saw him on letterman in mid-80s, he was damn good then.
I think emo philips also debuted around then, funny in his own way, but not as good as wright.
letterman was a good dood back then, and then he went liberal-apeshit-stupidface.
