Is Lewis Black okay? That's the natural fear many fans had when the comedian who has been mad-as-hell-and-not-going-to-take-it-anymore for decades announced that he actually wasn't going to do it anymore. The now 77-year-old stand-up legend has retired from touring, and his recent Goodbye Yeller Brick Road performances were his last. But Black, the longest-serving contributor to The Daily Show, whose appearances started back in 1996 when Craig Kilborn (remember him?) was still the host, is not finished with comedy.

Anal springs to mind, because I was doing a show in Limerick in Ireland and the stage manager genuinely thought my name was Anal. He called me over the Tannoy [PA system]: Could Anal please come to the stage door? But there must be a bigger word than that.

"Pardon me, Ma'am," he said. "My car broke down and I was wondering if I could charge my phone in your house?" "Sorry, I don't think so," Ellen said, starting to close the door. The man shoved his foot inside. "Well, I do think so," he said. Ellen stumbled and fell to the ground. "Who the hell is that?" Douglas screamed.
