| [slm] I watched the show, and my only wish is that it had been longer so it could have gone deeper into what it is to be Muslim in America. Overall I enjoyed it, but the Bro's wife is right--- some of the jokes aren't funny ::)! Just my opinion-- [wlm] :-) Laila |

| [slm] And to think he's giving a show in our masjid in april.... I've heard him once before. Funny thing was the old indian uncles were laughing more than the young guys (who told me they did'nt enjoy it, but i saw them laughing never the less.) It was more funny watching these uncles busting their sides almost falling out of their seats than listening to the jokes. It does have some entertainment value for everyone I guess. ;D Here's the link... http://mca-sfba.org/events/2005/evtapr2005.htm#09APR2005 |

| All Praise to Allah. I am delighted Allah made him funny. Great work ABC for the profile of this comedian. Now the world can we are ordinary people who enjoy to laugh. Let's support our brothers gift even if some think he is funny or not...lots of people must because I just tried to order the CD. Sold out. |
