I know the Steve Martin record isn't music, per se, but the album had just as much of an affect on my life as any other and his routines and riffs echoed through my young adolescent head just like any song did.

That Steve Martin record would be on my list if it were a longer list, along with a few other comedy records.

I can still remember the first time I heard it -- I'd had no idea that anyone could be that funny and stupid at the same time. Then I spent about a month and a half driving a couple of my friends crazy by reciting and singing all the bits verbatim until they wanted to kill me.

I break with thee, I break with thee, I break with thee.

I don't need you. I can do this act alone. I often do.

I still DO want to kill you!

Well you know where I live!

THAT's why you were reciting lines last night!

Next time I am marrying a jock who does not quote from nerdy comedy routines when I am trying to fall asleep.

But that would just be boring.

Sleeping is NEVER boring.
