And then there's comedy!

Our friends, Linda and Don, were not able to use their concert series tickets so offered them to us. The "concert" was a comedian this particular night. They told us that they had seen the comedian who was performing and that he did good, clean comedy. We went and they had great tickets!

Well, it turned out that the scheduled comedian was sick, so the Activity Office director, Kimberly, had called another comedian who lives about 3 hours away. The replacement related that he and his wife were at the Department of Motor Vehicles in a line of about 20 people. They had made it to #3 when Kimberly called. He went outside to take the call and committed to Kimberly that he would come. He went back in, and his wife had made it to #2 in line -- he told her they needed to leave and come back another time! So, they left, he went home and got ready to come, and was here to entertain.

Mark Cordes, comedian

If you'd like a sample of his act, here is a sample from YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiHbXbQSTPg

We enjoyed the show, but since I looked him up online, I realize that he did about the same jokes in the performance we saw, so I'm not sure it would be worthwhile to see him more than once!
