Thank you. (Bowing). I'll be performing this
piece later this month at the Comedy Club along
with "The Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly" and "Jabberwocky".
Please come and bring your friends.

I'd bring some friends if I had any. As for the "please come" part, thank
you for the encouragement.

Would like to see someone perform _Jabberwocky_, tho. It's one of my
all-time favourites.

Well, it's more of a dramatic recitation than a actual
performance. Nevertheless, it's quite good, if I do say
so myself.
