Subject: RE: BS: Best Woody Allen complaint monologue...?
From his early stand-up years (1960s) 2 routines come to mind---too long to quote verbatim but to sum up


1) Describing his time in France with Gertrude Stein and Hemingway and constantly being punched by Stein for whatever he says that is even in agreement about their art.

2) While going to a summer camp which was ecuminical he was beaten by children of all races and creeds.

3)   On getting a divorce on his honeymoon---A honeymoon is over in a week or so, but his divorce is forever.
