http://www.ottawacitizen.com/entertainment/Eddie+Izzard+earns+gold/3088881/story.htmlThe World According to Eddie Izzard is furnished with its own comedic logic.
It is a linguistic playground where he juggles with words and groups of words.
Occasionally, he meanders aimlessly to a dead end and finds there is nothing either meaningful or funny left to say. Whoops. He mimes the writing of a note to himself on the palm of his hand: "Don't go there again, Eddie -- at least not until you can find a punch line."
