Future Energy Secretary Steve Chu, with whom I share a last name, was the butt of a Amy Poehler joke on SNL this week:
"Barack Obama this week named Nobel Prize winning physicist Steve Chu as his energy secretary, unless he was just sneezing."
Dude, I heard that joke in kindergarten. Well, without the energy secretary part. Anyway, Poehler can do better.
It reminds me of when I saw Brad Garrett (big dumb brother on Everybody Loves Raymond) do standup. He saw some Asian people in the crowd and was like, "Hey, what's up? I bet you guys love rice!" Set aside the fact that, yes, I do love rice. I know there's a better joke there.
