Thankya. Thankya vedy much.

For a while I thought the joke bombed like the last few.

The crickets were mocking me. Some of them even started
heckling me.

That didn't last very long though.

I fired right back at 'em. Gotta show them crickets you
ain't going to stand for being insulted by a bug.

I started making fun of the hecklers by pointing out how
much they resembled cockroaches. Oh they didn't like
being called roaches. That's like calling a hamster a
rat. I performed one evening in front of a sold out show
of hamsters and goofed up by asking one of them what
happened to his long skeevie tail. Asked him if it had
gotten cut off by a rat trap. Leaving the club a few of
them cornered me in an ally way and nearly chewed my
shoes to pieces.

Getting back to them crickets, they sure are a tough
audience. Usually when all else fails this joke gets them
to giggle. It's my show stopper:

What is green and can jump a mile in a minute?

Thankya. Thankya vedy much.

Yeah, I know. Not really that funny, but them crickets
love that one. They just love that green humor.
