A house is just a pile of stuff with a cover on it. You can see that when you're taking off in an airplane. You look down, you see everybody's got a little pile of stuff. All the little piles of stuff. And when you leave your house, you gotta lock it up. Wouldn't want somebody to come by and take some of your stuff. They always take the good stuff. They never bother with that crap you're saving. All they want is the shiny stuff. That's what your house is, a place to keep your stuff while you go out and get...more stuff!

Sometimes you gotta move, gotta get a bigger house. Why? No room for your stuff anymore. Did you ever notice when you go to somebody else's house, you never quite feel a hundred percent at home? You know why? No room for your stuff. Somebody else's stuff is all over the goddamn place! And if you stay overnight, unexpectedly, they give you a little bedroom to sleep in. Bedroom they haven't used in about eleven years. Someone died in it, eleven years ago. And they haven't moved any of his stuff! Right next to the bed there's usually a dresser or a bureau of some kind, and there's NO ROOM for your stuff on it. Somebody else's s--t is on the dresser.

Have you noticed that their stuff is s--t and your s--t is stuff? God! And you say, "Get that s--t offa there and let me put my stuff down!"

And you know he was usually right about alot of his observations. Not the God stuff, I don’t believe, but most.

I saw Jerry Seinfeld in Vegas in February, and he TOTALLY ripped off this rant about “stuff”.... never gave any credit to the man who wrote it.

Back in the 70's, I purchased FM&AM, Class Clown, On The Road, Occupation: Foole, & Toledo Window Box. Everyone remembers him for the 7 word list but he had a unique way of playing with words and phrases.

Example - this, that, and the other. I'll take this, and that. You gotta take the other, it comes in a set.

I liked his style of humor. As he got older, he seemed to me more bitter. Maybe it was because he couldn't springboard his career into the movies as well as some of his fellow comedians.
