Needs clean up

I'm unclear if the material is from live shows or recorded material. If from published material then meets my inclusion criteria. If from live shows, then I'm not sure it does. Either way I'm not clear whether in its present form, the entry meets the new inclusion criteria due to potential copyright problems. Someone needs to look at the entry asap.

At this time, the titles named in the sub-section headings under "Standup routines" are listed in his Wikipedia discography, so the quotes appear to be sourceable to published works. ~ Ningauble 14:13, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
