I have to honestly say that Ellen Degeneris (sp) is probably the funniest one out there. If she were to come to Chicago I'd get tickets to her show.

In Australia - Elliott Goblet, Carl Barron, Dave Hughes, Scared Weird Little Guys (Duo)
Other places - Russell Peters, David Strassman, Steven Wright
Overall, I love one-liners (Elliott Goblet + Steven Wright)

Steven Wright. His comedy is so funny because he simply doesn't laugh at it! I hate when comedians can't even get their own jokes out because they are cracking themself up. Steven Wright is very sarcastic and always keeps a straight face. He's hillarious!
"For christmas one year my uncle gave me glass and my brother bandaids and told us to share."
"I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she left me before we met."
"If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something."
"Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now."
"I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder."
"If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried."
"To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research."
"The sooner you fall behind, the more time you'll have to catch up."
"Plan to be spontaneous tomorrow."
"I have two very rare photographs.
One is a picture of Houdini locking his keys in his car.
The other is a rare photograph of Norman Rockwell beating up a child."
"I stayed up all night playing poker with tarot cards.
I got a full house and four people died."
"I used to work in a fire hydrant factory.
You couldn't park anywhere near the place."
"When I get real bored, I like to drive downtown and get a great parking spot,
then sit in my car and count how many people ask me if I'm leaving."
"A lot of people are afraid of heights. Not me, I'm afraid of widths."
"Smoking cures weight problems...eventually... "
"I wrote a song, but I can't read music so I don't know what it it. Every once in a while I'll be listening to the radio and I say, "I think I might have written that."
"Today I dialed a wrong number... The other person said, "Hello?" and I said, "Hello, could I speak to Joey?"... They said, "Uh... I don't think so... he's only 2 months old." I said, "I'll wait."
"One time the power went out in my house and I had to use the flash on my camera to see my way around. I made a sandwich and took fifty pictures of my face."
"A cop stopped me for speeding. He said, "Why were you going so fast?" I said, "See this thing my foot is on? It's called an accelerator. When you push down on it, it sends more gas to the engine. The whole car just takes right off.
And see this thing? This steers it."
"One time a cop pulled me over for running a stop sign. He said, "Didn't you
see the stop sign?" I said, "Yeah, but I don't believe everything I read."
"I hate it when my foot falls asleep during the day because that means it's going to be up all night."
Haha, he's a riot! Be sure to check him out!
