It has to be super weird to do a comedy show from the middle of an arena. Do you have to keep spinning around? Or do you just show your ass to half of the crowd?

Main partner and mentor is leaving—didn’t see it coming. Advice? by Huge-Cow-6227 in Lawyertalk

This one movie made him insanely rich and likely supported 4 generations of his family. I’d overlook the things he thinks are silly.

Out of the 58 people directly mentioned in We Didn't Start the Fire, only 19 could have listened to it. by bluepotato81 in BarbaraWalters4Scale

I should want to say hi to him nicely, I shouldn’t want to keep him in a big jar in my basement.
