    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#8217;ve always wanted to be a stand-up comedian. But after doing a mini-course on it and &lt;a href="http://www.almostwitty.com/349/being-british-chinese/my-brief-moment-in-british-chinese-media"&gt;being part of a British-Chinese comedy sketch troupe&lt;/a&gt;, I&amp;#8217;ve been aware that I have zero perfomance skills, and gave up on the idea, while trying in vain to groom my wife for the job.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And then I stumbled across &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/AndrewWongLOLComedy#p/u/4/Oo5bhzzsIoQ"&gt;Andrew Wong the stand-up comedian&lt;/a&gt;. He&amp;#8217;s British, and at least half my age. Fortunately, he&amp;#8217;s not a professional &amp;#8211; but at the same time, his YouTube channel is the 19th most subscribed channel in the British comedian category.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;object width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Oo5bhzzsIoQ?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="sameDomain"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Oo5bhzzsIoQ?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="sameDomain" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However, I&amp;#8217;m too far in to tell if he&amp;#8217;s actually funny or not. Is he?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There&amp;#8217;s also an Andrew Wong &lt;a href="http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DQ7c18JegZec&amp;amp;h=dbf37"&gt;who was a ninja contestant on Australia&amp;#8217;s Got Talent &amp;#8230; who got mistaken for another Andrew Wong with suspected benefit fraud&lt;/a&gt;. Apparently. &lt;/p&gt;
