    Hey, how’s everybody doing tonight? What a great looking crowd we have. Anybody here from out of town? Scotland, huh? Where the men wear kilts and the sheep are scared, huh?

    Hey, I just got in from LA. You know, they have two baseball teams there: the Angels and the Dodgers. And with the traffic they have down there, you’re one or the other.

    Boy, I don’t think I’ve spoken to this many people since my Bar Mitzvah. I’m Jewish, you know. You know why Jewish men die before their wives? Because they want to!

    Hey, you guys look like you’re in love. How many years have you been married? Twelve? Hey, that’s great. Must be the two best years of your lives.

    What a great audience you are. Have fun tonight, and don’t forget to tip the waiters!
