Frankie is not a genetically modified organism, but it's possible he's eaten "chicken" that was. Could that be the explanation for his sudden success?

Orny will be at the Mall of America this weekend, but he's not very happy about it. It's not the comedy club that's the problem, it's the fact that the mall changes shape every night.

China has a lot of people. This is well known. What it doesn't have a lot of is train cars, especially when they're pseudo-segregated. Groping and mass murder aren't quite on the same level, but they're both aberrant behavior. If we can find the onus of both we can solve China's train problem and the world's murder problem all at once. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. See omnys...

Farm kids know the horror of a rooster crowing at 5 AM. Some kids liked said horror, apparently. Speaking of things nobody likes, the Oscars came and went and nobody watched it.

Trump, or DJT as he's known to himself, gets abused a lot. It's not so bad, since he seems to enjoy abusing right back via Twitter. That's a pretty benign vice, so I guess we should be thankful.
