Mary Tyler Moore is a guest on the David Letterman Show. Letterman asked her what was the funniest joke she ever heard.
She answered: “One day a man went to go see a big shot talent agent to see if he would consider representing him. The agent said “well, I’ve got to see want kind of talent you have.” Well, the man shows him. The agent watched him mesmerized and saw how great he could dance, heard him singing beautifully, saw him act and listened to his comedy routines.
The agent was amazed at all the talent this man had. He wanted to sign him up right away so he asked him what his name was.
“Well,” the man replies, “My parents gave me a rather odd name…my name is Penis Van Lesbian.”
The agent says, “Oh no, that name won’t work. We have to change your name.” The agent thinks for a while, trying to figure out a good name for him. All of a sudden the agent says, “I’ve got the perfect name for you! From now on your new name will be ‘Dick Van Dyke’.”
