So Dennis Miller "worked in delis and scooped ice cream until he realized that his life was going to turn into a 'Kafka novella' unless he began seriously pursuing comedy."

I've set the Tivo for his show, which starts next week. Currently, his Rant Zone has a slot in my car CD player. Pleasantly, my commute from home to work is exactly the length of one rant: it's kind of delightful to ease into your parking space just as Dennis returns, according to his rant format, to a calm sign-off.
