Just when you thought he couldn't get any funnier Jim Norton stepped up the pace and sent us reeling Friday night at the Cobb. The audience reaction verged on hysteria as the one of a kind comic delivered his wildly inappropriate thoughts and observations about life as... well, as a human. What's fascinating about this guy is the way his astonishing brain takes a modest back seat to his outrageous mouth, driving the act to stunning and indisputably dangerous speeds. The real surprise is that he never crashed, he just got better and better-- and then, the audience had to go home.
