Some
Entertainment Tonight drone was giving an interview to an old
comedian. Unfortunately, I can't remember if it was
Bob Hope,
Don Rickles,
George Burns, or one of their
contemporaries. When asked about his success, the comedian said:
Comedian: I've always followed the first rule of comedy.
Drone: ...
Comedian: Go on, ask me what it is.
Drone: What's the first--
Comedian: Timing.
