This is my blog where I write about music, and myself. Vaudeville, burlesque, blues, jazz, novelties, and whatever else I feel like posting. Mostly from my own LPs and 78s. Comments and feedback always appreciated. Please do not link directly to mp3s. It's rude.

I'm so glad to find out that some people are actually reading this blog. Thanks to anyone who's linked to me!
Today... another "Comedy Monologue."
Guess what this one's about. That's right.. women! Can't live with em, can't live without em. David Kline (as "Cohen") even uses that line, along with every other joke in the book. It was 1921 - let's hope these zingers were a little more novel.
He also uses the "Marraige is an institution - but who wants to live in an institution?" line that is so often credited to Mae West. It's true that she recycled a lot of lines.
I can't find any info on the web about David Kline. Get a more unique name, David! Too late now.
