4. It was and it wasn't.
It WAS funny. There were lines that were damned funny. A lot of them. I actually thought the Helen Thomas bit was hilarious, especially the first half.

There were other lines that weren't funny. They were nasty, sarcastic and dead-on.

6. Still goin' strong
I got it on a torrent site soon after it was released and there were a lot of seeders (people with the file uploading).

Looks like it's still pretty popular....
