It's like déjà vu all over again, but I can't resist. An award for comedians
is a fine thing, but it should be called the Henny Youngman award or the Bob
Hope award. The Real Mark Twain award should have been given to Kurt
Vonnegut. It could still be given to Michael Moore, Keith Olbermann, Al
Franken or maybe even Matt Groening - an award for humor with some social
bite behind it. Disclaimer - "When Harry Met Sally" is one of my all-time
favorite movies, but being extremely funny and entertaining doesn't make you
Mark Twain. It's the difference between the lightning and the lightning bug.
