Will Rogers – Quoted

2009-05-09Where in the world am I today?: North Vancouver, BC, Canada

“An onion can make people cry, but there has never been a vegetable invented to make them laugh.”

–Will Rogers, US humorist & showman (1879 – 1935)

Addendum…

“Though there’s something about the word zucchini that puts a smile on my face”

–David ‘checkerhead’ Aiken

I remember taking a comedy writing workshop while attending a Juggling Convention at one point and the guys leading the workshop suggested that there were words that were just funnier than others. Zucchini I think is a funnier word than Onion, but perhaps the way you say cauliflower would have me bending over backwards… Hmmmm… Maybe Will Rogers was right…
