no joke

😂 I'd be quite happy with $40

Mick, from Dublin , appeared on 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire' and towards the end of the program had already won 500,000 euros. 
"You've done very well so far," said Chris Tarrant, the show's presenter, "but for a million euros you've only got one life-line left, phone a friend. Everything is riding on this question. Will you go for it?"
"Sure," said Mick. "I'll have a go!" 
"Which of the following birds does NOT build its own nest?
A) Sparrow 
b) Thrush, 
c) Magpie, 
d) Cuckoo?"
"I haven't got a clue." said Mick, "so I'll use last lifeline and phone my friend Paddy back home in Dublin .." 
Mick called up his mate, and told him the circumstances and repeated the question to him.
"Fookin hell, Mick!" cried Paddy. "Dat's simple it's a cuckoo."
"Are you sure?" 
"I'm fookin sure." 
Mick hung up the phone and told Chris, "I'll go with "D" cuckoo as my answer." 
"Is that your final answer?" asked Chris. 
"Dat it is." 
There was a long, long pause and then the presenter screamed, "Cuckoo is the correct answer! Mick, you've won 1 million euros!"
The next night, Mick invited Paddy to their local pub to buy him a drink. 
"Tell me, Paddy? How in Heaven's name did you know it was da Cuckoo that doesn't build its own nest?" 
Paddy rolled his eyes and replied, "Because he lives in a Fookin Clock!”

I worked with a KIWI girl from Palmaston North, and I found I was constantly in the same predicament as that interviewer, her KIWI accent was so thick, plus she was a fast talker, I could barely understand her.

What's the difference between a kleptomaniac and a literalist?

The literalist takes things literally. The kleptomaniac takes things, literally.

If said woofer climbs inside, it would almost become sort of co-axial driver but with the woofer in the middle and the tweeter on the outside……..

this live skit was done earlier in a more polished way as part of Sam's ABC show Problems.
