Bill Cosby can still bring it
J and I, along with most of her family, saw Bill Cosby this afternoon. Dude still does an hour and a half of sit-down comedy. And is still great, IMO. He goes at a slower pace, but his great timing is totally intact.
He was always great at mugging for an audience, and now he achieves that same effect just by looking up at the ceiling, or dropping his cap on a line. He still talks about family, and wives, and friends, and his stuff is just as profound and personal as ever.
Man this guy is like my hero and I'm so glad I got to see him.
