    Your favorite comedian/enne

    Pedro's signature got me thinking.
    I thought Emo was great. What happened to him.

    Louis Black is my current favorite. His Daily Show bits are hit and miss - mostly hits.
    He had a special on Comedy Channel before the election that had me laughing out loud. Kicking myself that I missed him when he was at the Taft.

    Mo Rocca is very clever. He was on a daytime talkshow - Laura Ingraham maybe - his wit had her amusingly off guard.
    Was on a cable news program about politcal humor. Didn't know what to do with him.

    David Alan Grier is another who has a great routine.

    Love Dennis Miler and his running metaphors.

    Back when Eddie Murphy did standup, he was fantastic.

    Jerry Seinfeld still does great standup, as does Ray Romano.

    Larry the Cable Guy is hilarious, although some of his material can get rather offensive, so I've soured on him a little.

    I also like impressions and Frank Caliendo is the best at this, IMO.

    Mitch Hedberg, without question.

    Just saw Seinfeld in Vegas and he was awesome.

    David Cross.

    Especially when he's not ranting about politics.

    David Cross is most excellent. His comedy CD/DVD, Shut Up You trucking Baby is fantastic.
