Is it Me?

Nasrudin went into a bank with a cheque to cash.
'Can you identify yourself?' asked the clerk.
Nasrudin took out a mirror and peered into it.
'Yes, that's me all right,' he said.

Edward...can you identify yourself?

Are you sure you're not Rummy Bishop?

Who is rummy Bishop?

Andy Looney said...

He's an actor, comedian, less famous cousin of Joey Bishop.

The surname Bishop, by the way, like Pope and King, indicates thespian rather than religious or royal heritage.

Joey bishop, he used to hang out with frank sinatra right?

Joey was the lowest-key member of the Rat Pack...Sinatra, Sammy Davis Junior, Dean Martin - all great singers, and Peter Lawford - no-talent twit. Omar would also have been a member but, alas, was born too late.
