Steven was on the same bill and ended up getting picked for the show first. Gradually all the other comics got picked up by the shows and Boston quickly became the place to go for comedy.

Oh, Ok, yes, thanks. I missed that. I thought the humor was the huge statistical unlikelihood that it was the same guy.

Of course the one time explaining a joke makes it funnier is with Steven Wright.

Stephen Wright is one of the greats. One of my favorite jokes is from another act he did. He said, "I took my dog out for a walk ... on the ledge. Some people are afraid of heights. I'm afraid of widths." His jokes are brilliant.

This aired on my tenth birthday. Most bizarre is that this man is the one professional comic I have ever seen live. Valley Forge Music Fair outside of Philly. Sometime in the 80's.
