Try and Stop Me INING with Danny and Sylvia Kaye
A humor fragment recounts early jokes shared by Danny and Sylvia Kaye. Danny remembers a teacher quipping about a zoo visit and parents. Sylvia recalls a gory tale involving a lad, his druggist, diapers, and safety pins. The piece notes a Brooklyn youth’s quip about a highway cop and cites a 1952 Bennett Cerf copyright.
