Truly funny today ! I’d remembered Dr Whoopee but forgot what a great salesman Sal could be. Love the euphemism whoopee cushion .Much better than condominiums !

reminds me of a joke I heard from a black comedian. “Latino guys buy 6 packs: Mon, Tues, Wend, Thurs, Fri, Sat, but not on Sunday. Black guys get 8 packs: Mon, Tues, Wends, Thurs, Fri, Sat, and twice on Sunday. White guys get 12 packs: January, February, March…..”
