    OMG Saturday Nights in the 70's kicked ass for a kid. SNL followed by Dave Allen followed by Monty Python. Pure Magic.

    He was the best. No- one has ever come close. He was the whole package. Brain the size of a planet, funniest man ever lived, all wrapped up in a man more handsome than most film stars. Never see his like again. We still love you Dave. ❤️

    I'm Aussie, and it's guys like this that show me how much the Irish have influenced our culture. We are very much a British 'soup' so-to-speak, but the Irish definitely had a huge impact on our culture, and, as I said, it's guys like Allen who who just show how much the Irish impacted on the Australian accent and cultural mindset. And it remains to this day.

    4:40 - It wasn't an apple. People keep calling it an apple (possibly because the worlds for "apple" and "evil" are very similar in Latin), but nowhere does it say it was an apple. It's described as "the tree of knowledge of good and evil" (not "good and apples").

    I am certainly not a ladies man . But I do know a good number of women as friends . Now the vast majority of these females are middle of the road , don't follow politics or anything else except for gossip , and keeping up on political correctness . The vast majority would give Dave hell for these mild jokes about differences of men and women . I know one who laughs her head off when she sees and listens to this type of comedy . And on top of that she is an economic socialist ! i think its those everyday females today who have got us men by the you know what , lol !

Point is, I get where you're coming from, it's nice to actually be able to talk to her about stuff like that
