'twas Rita Rudner, the mystery comedienne from a few entries back

  She's naked beneath her clothes.

"I want to have children, but my friends scare me. One of my friends told me she was in labor for 36 hours. I don't even want to do anything that feels good for 36 hours."


  "Rita Rudner is a witty stand-up comedian with a pillow-soft voice, speaking softly and carrying a big shtick. Onstage, her act combines shrewd observations about life and the world with a demeanor that makes you want to help her across the street. When she performs live, the mistress of well-heeled understatement puts her unique spin on such topics as marriage, babies, dieting and, of course, men."

  1. I'm not a fan of hers.  I love female comics like Kathy Griffin& Paula Poundstone, but Rita leaves me cold.  Good line, though.
