Some of the "jokes" - I don't find joking about 3,000 people murdered too funny. And I notice note on joke about Isalm.

"I get some dirty looks walking down the street," the Chicago comedian protested. "People looking at me as if I was responsible for 9/11.

"Can you believe that?

"Me responsible for 9/11?

Pause.

"7-Eleven, maybe?"

The new tour, Moss said, is a way to highlight both the diversity of Muslims and the fact that blacks make up one of the largest groups of Muslims in this country. The show gives Moss a forum to banter about both his race and religion.

With John Ashcroft as attorney general, mused Moss: "I'm worried they're going to put race and religion on driver's licenses. ... So when I get pulled over ... I get two tickets!"

"It's a bad time to be named Ahmed," lamented Egyptian-born Ahmed Ahmed, 33.

Once, Ahmed said, a ticket agent was skeptical about his occupation. " 'Oh, you're a comedian,' " the agent purportedly said. " 'Say something funny.' "

Pause.

"Ah-h-h ... I just graduated from flight school?"

Ahmed, who with two other California-based Muslim comedians forms a comedy team called Arabian Knights, described his idea for a new reality television show: "It's called 'Mideastern Eye for the Midwestern Guy.' ... Five Arabs ... bust into a white guy's house and teach him how to make bombs and hate women." (Pause amid laughter.) "I'm kidding. Midwestern guys already know how to do that."

They whitewashed it. They don't just want to teach them how to hate women, but how to enslave and kill them too. Arabian knights, huh?

one female moose limb comedian on 60 Minutes said she did one about flight school ...

yeah, that's a real knee-slapper ...

not funny one bit ...

"We're really jealous of the Jewish comics who get to play the Borscht Belt every season. The only belt we get to play is Semtex and it's good for one night only."
