OT: Need Help Finding

Atrocities · #1 June 11th, 2004, 12:02 PM

Does any one here listen to stand up? I am looking for the name of the stand up commedian who coined the phrase "Trailer Trash Barby."

I listened to his audio tape back in the mid to late 90's and would like to listen to it again.

The thing is, like so much of my life, I don't remember a lot about that time. It is like a dream to me that it ever happened. I recall my boss laughing so hard I thought I would have to give her oxygen as she listened to the tape. That was a fond memory that I would like to revist.

So any help in finding the name would be appreciated.

I googled the topic but found nothing. I seem to recall the, but could be grossely mistaken, the commedians name as something along the lines of Olly Peterson or Pederson or something.

Do you mean Orny Adams? He used to hang around Seinfeld and I seem to remember him talking about barbie doll's in many of his stand-up stuff.

I could be wrong, but I think one of his characters was called Oli Patterson.

Anyway, that area of my memory if full of dust and cobwebs so this is the best that my powers of cerebal archiology can come up with.

Cheers!

I hate google and all the search engines. They are so hard to use.... in that they dump out so much useless crap and ignor your search entirely.

It is most frustrating.

Thanks David, I will look into it.

I hate amazon.com

I placed an order for a CD that looked good and they tacked on a hidden one as well. I received TWO invoices, one for the CD I just ordered, and another for this other CD that I did not order.

I treid to cancel this extra CD and well, you can't. I replied to the email like the email says I can do, but guess what, you can't. It just gets bounced back.

Time to call 1-800-201-7575 Amazon and say "WTF?"

Another line might have been:

"I was doin 75 in a 55 at 205, well these number just messed me up, and then I saw God.

God was in the form of a ?? state trooper. He said blow and I said no, and for the first time in my life I was a minority. You see I woke up in the jail surrounded by a bunch of black men."

That was not a direct quote, it is just what I remember.
