      Jim Gaffigan is in a very rare club within the comedy community: He makes people laugh, and he does it without ever relying on vulgarity, or gross images in his act. Jim's talent is observational comedy at its best. Shine on, Jimmy! 🤩

      He wasn't 100% clean back then, I remember his non-TV standup shows in the early 2000s used to have a handful of F-bombs in them, but I think he realized the material was just as good without them.

Wish you were here. The veil is great, but the food is lousy." and sent it to where I worked. It was on the bulletin board when I returned.
