Comedian Stewart Francis shares the art of the perfect pun

THE Canadian comic Stewart Francis makes his money from puns. He’ll say things on stage like, “So what if I can’t spell Armageddon. It’s not the end of the world.”
His stand-up gigs are rat-a-tat affairs as he slings out the puns one after another, one of his most famous being about the tossing of a frisbee: “I was in the park wondering why the Frisbee gets bigger as it gets closer, and then it hit me.”
