In honor of St. Patrick's Day, let's have a Dave Allen At Large
appreciation thread. I loved that show. It was pretty irreverant. What ever happened to Allen?

1. Dave had one of the best responses to charges of sacreligious humor
Basically, I think he said that if one works from the presupposition that God is responsible for everything that is, including expressions of human emotion, then God is also responsible for gags. Therefore, according to Dave, if you thought a particular joke was blasphemous, don't blame Dave Allen - blame God! Be sure to address your SASE to:

God, Esq.
c/o President Jimmy Carter
The White House
Washington, DC
