The joke from whence Mitch Hedberg got the name for his first CD:
See, I’m a dreamer, man. And when I was a cook I’d always work with people who weren’t dreamers. Like, I was cooking at this restaurant and I put a hot dog on the grill and my kitchen manager came over, and he said, “Mitch, put the hot dog up here, in the right hand corner of the grill, so in case you get a whole bunch of orders at once you have all this space available.” See, that’s how I knew he wasn’t a dreamer, ’cause the day I give up my dreams is the day I have strategic grill locations. A dreamer has a philosophy: the entire grill is hot.
I remember hearing this on an album, one I downloaded of course, but I can’t remember which one or seem to find anything other than his three official albums. From which show did this joke come?
Devin, I actually don’t remember exactly, sorry!
