No need to abandon your comedy routine.. I will have to do with you as I do with my elderly friend who I go see every week in the nursing home. She says seemingly tacky things to people and I laugh hysterically so everyone knows she is just joking. For some reason she has lost her ability to tell convincing jokes. I figure it's due to her stroke because her facial expressions do not go along with the humor. Since no one can see your face....well...not saying you are old or anything. ;)
