[quote name='dtcarson']He can still tell a tale, and he can definitely be hilarious; his habit going way off topic then returning to the story twenty minutes later keeps you guessing. But when we saw him in January, I believe, it seemed 'typical', with him jumping on the bash-Bush bandwagon. Some of his anecdotes were hilarious or moving, but much of the show didn't offer anything you couldn't get from late-night TV.[/quote]
I have to know. During the spoken-word set you attended, did he tell the story of how he once went home from his office to find a guy trying to break into his house? He sees the guy at the window, and figures it's some guy cleaning the windows. The guy looks at Henry, and looks panicked. Henry wants to know what's going on, so he asks, 'What are you doing out there?'. The thief says, 'Hi, I need to talk to you. Let me inside...' Of course Henry says 'No', they talk a little longer, and the thief takes off down the street towards Henry's office. He calls his office and gets on the phone with one of his assistants. He tells the assistant to look outside for a man running down the street toward the office. When the assistant says he sees him, Henry tells him that the guy just tried to break in. The assistant says, 'I'm on it', drops the phone, and starts boking it down the street towards the thief! Henry had already called the cops about the thief, and had to call them back to make sure they didn't go after his friend by mistake!
