    That is hilarious. My wife and I watched it the first night and I taped it Sunday night. I like when he messed up and stopped and said, "I inhaled!"

    Very Funny, he is a genuis. but, if there are any Eddie Izzard fans out there, you may have noticed Robin lifted quite a few of Eddie's jokes. (perhaps as payback for getting Eddie his HBO special way back when?)

    Nah, although my video card supports TV In/Out, I don't have it hooked to anything. We don't subscribe to a cable service. After my antenna hookup died about 15 years ago and I never got around to fixing it, I found that I really didn't miss television. Don't get me wrong, I'd watch it if I had it hooked up, but I find that I don't have enough time in my day to do all the things I want to do as it is...TV would just make it worse...so I don't miss it. I do have a VCR attached and watch a movie or two every other week. Otherwise, I'll watch a DVD on the computer when I get around to it and play my FPS games...that's about it...

    That whole thing was great. And the end with the Viagra and oral joke was a good way to end the night.

    I wonder if Robin would sweat as bad if he shaved his hair shirt off?

    Aw man, we dont have HBO, but I would get it just to watch Robin Williams. He is one of the best comedians out there in my opinion...

    Talking

    We don't have cable either but we saw it over at our sister-in-law's house. My wife turned so red so many times it was unreal. And yes, the ending with him sneaking peaks behind his hairy arm was a hoot!
    Hey Spiff-Meister, we live way out in the country but I put up a nice antenna on a 25 foot pole and we now get all of the local channels ...about 14 if you include the Spanish channels. We also watch about 4 or 5 movies a week on video.

    I'd re-attach the antenna, but my wife said she'd rip off my right arm and beat me upside the head with it. I'll pass, but thanks for the idea...
