Bob & Ray [sporfle!] of the week
So I'm listening to my B&R stuff the other night, one of the skit collections that I hadn't got around to yet because it's an hour long and won't play on my iPod**, and ran across what is very possibly the single cutest moment in the history of comedy: Ray interviews a 'bunny exterminator', that is to say Bob...

Especially bearing in mind that this is the early '50's, when the reference - to what was then generally thought of as adult entertainment - would've been still hip and current:
( Funnie stuff under the cut... )
