    This is, without a doubt, one the greatest stand up moments I have ever seen in my lifetime. It is brilliant at so many levels, its ridiculous. Bob Nelson at his finest hour. Epic humor.

      A Floyd, did your tape have a routine by a smaller, Sandy-haired guy who used a hand puppet in part of his routine! He was on one of the shoes when Nelson did this routine and I thought it was at Dangerfield's. Anyway, the guy this to dialogue with the puppet except it degenerated into him babbling about himself neurotically.
      Regrettably, I saw it once, don't remember the comedian, and just remember how well he caught the neurotic pathos, ending with a weak little laugh from the puppet.

Anyway do you really think those people could stave off human nature and sustain a utopia? They were too lazy and narcissistic, like everybody else, all too human.

      I was in my mid-20s and had captured it on videotape. I must have watched it dozens of times, yet it's still hilarious today. Seinfield, Saget, Kinisen, Barr, they all appeared in the late 80's/early 90's.

      Those Laugh-Offs were a big deal back in the day. Seinfeld and Jim Carey won theirs, hands down. Comedy was king, there. Note the language. So this was only seen on HBO or Showtime or some premium cable channel in the early days of cable.

    As a black man I'd like to make an observation. Funny how it's ok for black people to make fun of white people, but not ok for white people to make fun of black people. Always a double standard. Really though, when blacks make fun of whites its funny, but the reality of the joke is not really insulting. If whites made fun of blacks, the reality of the jokes would be sad. When whites have a joke told about their race they say, yeah that's true, haha. When blacks have a joke told about them the get defensive and blame whites. It seems that racial tension, segregation, and racism and perpetuated by blacks more than whites today. Maybe I'm wrong. Just seems that way.
