Emo Philips is kind of a bizarre/funny comedian...he's kind of like Steven Wright in the style of humor, but Emo is much, much weirder. He was somewhat popular in the 80s. Emo had a page-boy haircut, and delivered his jokes in in a high, slow, meandering voice. I'll bet you'd recognize him...
One of his jokes that I remember was something like... "But Grandpa said we couldn't keep all the kittens, and so he and I took them in a boat out to the middle of the lake so we could drown them. I cried and I cried because I couldn't make them skip the way that he could."
Or... "The other morning, my sister made some eggs. So, we cooked them..."
