Abbott Helps Costello Buy A Computer
This post isn't much of a resource I guess, but it is well worth the read. This is a joke/skit of the great comedy legends Abbott & Costello. The basic storyline is that Costello is looking to buy a new computer and he calls a computer store where Abbott answers. I included a short excerpt of the conversation, but follow the link below to read the whole thing.
Abbott: Super Duper computer store. Can I help you?
Costello: Thanks. I'm setting up an office in my den and I'm thinking about buying a computer.
Abbott: Mac?
Costello: No, the name's Lou.
Abbott: Your computer?
Costello: I don't own a computer. I want to buy one.
Abbott: Mac?
Costello: I told you, my name's Lou.
Abbott: What about Windows?
Costello: Why? Will it get stuffy in here?
Abbott: Do you want a computer with Windows?
Costello: I don't know. What will I see when I look at the windows?
Abbott: Wallpaper.
