        I always liked his riff on Muhammed Ali being banned from boxing.  
Paraphrased:

He does have a strange job, after all: beating people up. The  
government wanted him to change jobs; the government wanted him to  
kill people. He said "No, that's where I draw the line: I'll beat 'em  
up, but I don't want to kill 'em." And the government said "Well, if  
you won't kill 'em, we won't let you beat 'em up!"
