Yeah, I like him alot. Enjoyed watching that vid first thing this morning along with my coffee. :thumbsup:

I lived and schooled (English speaking) in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain for 4 years and could relate to the vid you posted. The Arabic people are good folk, as Fluffy said. Good, memorable, unique years for me.

As a side note about royalty, there was a princess that had a small palace in Jeddah. She was very western cultured in her ways. She had parties at her place, inviting many international folk that lived/worked in Jeddah. It's not too often you can get a servant to roll up joints of hash and offer you one from a silver platter LOL.

Tosh doesn't get enough credit, probably because he's a little abrasive for most and his main platform is a cable show most aren't familiar with... but that dude is funny.

I don't like Jim Gaffigan anymore. He's boring now.
Tell you what though, I watched some old Dave Chappelle last night. I thought I was going to have to change the channel I was laughing so hard I couldn't stop. My stomach hurt afterwards.

Loved The Chappelle Show... but I haven't enjoyed his latest Netflix specials at all. He just seems to be ranting onstage.

Same with Chris Rock. Holy cow, his first couple of specials KILLED. He ruled the HBO comedy specials for many moons. But Tamborine? What was that???

I'm lukewarm on Gaffigan. He's an old reliable... repetitive... and he only takes me so far. A little dab goes a long way.
