I've seen a little bit of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour stuff. And since Chris and I thought the guys seemed to hit it off fairly well together, we decided to check out some solo material. I already have some Jeff Foxworthy stuff, so we decided to rent the Larry the Cable Guy HBO special.

Have any of you seen this? If so, I feel sorry for you, just as I feel sorry for myself. If not, don't bother.

He did get off some good lines, truth be told. But what sticks in my mind is the diatribe against the Dixie Chicks (for the millionth time-- George W. Bush does not equal America. No President does. Insulting a President does not mean you hate the *country*. This has been a visit from the Logic Fairy. Thank you and have a nice day.)

And what *really* sticks in my mind were are the jokes about people who have harelips, and the constant jokes about "retards". Yuck. Just...yuck.

I saw the Blue Collar Comedy Tour, I think. I remember Jeff Foxworthy for sure. I like the older guy who did a routine about being thrown out of a bar in NYC and his alias was "Tater Salad". That was funny. *giggles*

I think that one was Ron White....

Grrrrr...

Well, you know my feelings on the "r-word"...*pulls out shotgun and blows away anyone who uses that term*. Kids used to make fun of my mother because of her handicap. And then me when I was diagnosed with ADD. That word does not sit well with me.

So it really makes me angry when people use that term. Even if it is a joke. So I definitely will not be spending any money to see the Larry the Cable Guy thing. I'd rather watch Robin Willams Live on Broadway again.
