A young fellow walks into a talent agent's office and says that
he wants to break into show-biz.
So the agent says, "Okay kid, show me what you do."
The kid tells some jokes, does a little soft shoe, sings a bit,
does an acrobatic act with an ottoman, and is good enough to impress the
agent.
"Great kid.. Just great!" says the agent "I can do things for ya!
I think I can get you a show on TV" (this was in the early sixties).
"By the way, what's your name?"
The young man, proud and excited, exclaims "Penis Van Lesbian."
"Scuse me?" questions the agent.
"My name is Penis Van Lesbian." again replies the young man.
"Hey, I'm sorry kid, you're gonna have to change your name. Nobody
is going to hire you with a name like Penis Van Lesbian."
Well the young man is crestfallen but steadfastly refuses to change
his name, so he leaves to find another agent. A few months later he returns
to the same agent.
"Hey kid.. Good to see you again. Are you still looking for work?
Have you changed your name?"
With his head hanging low the young man replies, "Yes. Every agent
in town turned me down because of my name, Penis Van Lesbian. So I've
changed it.
"Great kid. Great. What's your new name?"
"Dick Van Dyke."
