You know, timing is everything in comedy. Henny Youngman had this incredible sense of timing. Me? Not so much. I tried delivering a punchline the other day, and it went over everyone's heads. I thought, "Maybe I need to go back to basics. Maybe Henny was onto something with that violin of his. At least if the joke bombs, I can blame the instrument!

I've been studying Henny Youngman's one-liners, trying to incorporate that into my life. I walked into a bar the other day, looked around, and said, "Is this a bar or a circus? Oh, never mind, they're serving peanuts." The bartender just stared at me. I thought, "Henny made it sound so easy!" Turns out, my delivery was more like a dad joke than a classic one-liner. Henny, you make it look too easy!

I've been haunted, folks—haunted by the ghost of Henny Youngman. I swear, every time I mess up a punchline, I hear a distant "Take my joke, please!" echoing in the background. It's like Henny is haunting my comedy career. I can imagine him up there in the afterlife, shaking his head and saying, "I should have trademarked those one-liners!

You know, folks, I was talking to my wife the other day. She said, "Honey, do you remember Henny Youngman?" I said, "Of course, he's a legend!" She goes, "Well, you should take a page out of his book." So, I tried it. I said, "Honey, take my advice—please!" She just stared at me and said, "You're no Henny Youngman." Well, no kidding! Henny's wife probably didn't ask him to take out the trash in the middle of a punchline!
