good stuff!
Thanks for posting =)
He is a funny guy, and I remember watching most of these.
I find that comedians swear too much now. There is one guy here, Lee Evans, who your Jeeja Ji and Avtar like to watch, but he swears way too much. I also find British humour, well, not that funny. First of all, I can't understand the accents sometimes, and then I think what they are laughing about is stupid. But, then again, what Russell Peters is talking about, only Canadians would mostly understand it.
Rock on Canadian comedians! Don't worry, I'm not racist :o)
Satnam
