Well, of course, not his next-door neighbour. A silly off-colour joke about a theoretical next-door neighbour that, for some reason, some people take seriously.

I have heard it used as an opening "ice-breaker" gag by a couple of speakers over the years, and you'd be amazed how many people react with "wow, that's incredible, I never knew that. " rather than simply taking it for what it is.

On the other hand, given what we see on this board, you probably wouldn't be amazed at all.
