Maybe this will help, no need for a stooge.
When I was a kid my parents moved a lot, but I always found them.
Doctors I met the surgeon general - he offered me a cigarette.
Sex I'm at the age where I want two girls. In case I fall asleep they will have someone to talk to.
Age At twenty a man is full of fight and hope. He wants to reform the world. When he is seventy he still wants to reform the world, but he knows he can't.
Self My problem is that I appeal to everyone that can do me absolutely no good.
Wife My wife has to be the worst cook. Her specialty is indigestion.
Wife One day as I came home early from work... I saw a guy jogging naked. I said to the guy, "Hey buddy, why are you doing that?" He said, "Because you came home early."
Self One year they asked me to be poster boy - for birth control.
Funny Incidents The other night a mugger took off his mask and made me wear it.
Doctors I went to the doctor because I'd swallowed a bottle of sleeping pills. My doctor told me to have a few drinks and get some rest.
Wife My wife made me join a bridge club. I jump off next Tuesday.
Family My cousin is gay; he went to London only to find out that Big Ben was a clock.
Self You wanna have laughs? Do what I do. When I go through a tollbooth, I keep going. I tell the guy, "The car behind me is paying for two."

For your he record, this is a serious , cutting edge video. It came out a few years ago and I have been making my espresso this way ever since.
The secret thing they don't tell you is that to have it work properly you need to use the oldest and darkest coffee beans you find because you need the extra flavor to ballance the speed up the brew process.
Starbucks is the most widely available supplier and their coffee beans work well.
In real life, my name is Wayne P.
Feed the newbs, starve the trolls and above all enjoy what you drink!
