What a show. I hosted The Austin Freedom Fest, a benefit for The MPP & NORML & WHAM, at The Backyard in Austin, Texas, on Saturday night, August 10th. Willie Nelson, Ray Benson & Asleep At The Wheel, Paula Nelson, Amy Nelson & Cathy Guthrie's Folk Uke, Carolyn Wonderland, & Meagan Tubb. Wow.

Here's me & Willie with Ray behind us as they were leaving the stage..

On Saturday we all had dinner together and Willie and I exchanged a few jokes. Don't worry, you'll be hearing them all, more times than you'd like.

A guy goes to the doctor.
The doctor says, "You're going to have to stop masturbating."
The guy says, "Why?"
The doctor says, "So I can examine you."

Don't miss Ferrara's this Friday, it's always great.

A few weeks ago, I interviewed Jerry Maren, the Munchkin who was the representative of The Lollipop Guild who handed Dorothy a lollipop to welcome her to Oz. We'll be playing clips on Jackie's Joke Hunt.

Then I went to Los Angeles to do the pilot for "The Pikers," a hillbillies-move-to-the-ghetto sitcom. It was a hoot. I'm Bunky Piker, an embarrassment to Jed Clampett.

I had a great time with my pal Lee Newman and his eclectic assortment of friends. I showed off my Oscar to Ami Dolenz, the daughter of "Circus Boy" from my earliest television memories, Monkee Mickey Dolenz.

Then on to the grand finale HippieFest, at Humphrey's Concerts-By-The-Bay in San Diego, where I did few jokes between Felix & His Rascals (they brought the house to its feet with "Good Lovin'") and The Zombies. The Turtles, Joey from Badfinger, Country Joe, it was a great show. Don't miss it next year.
