Kenny riffs on everything from Barney to the Bobbitts (who made the news in June of '93 but would inspire tasteless jokes for months and years) to the Taster's Choice couple.  Not every joke hits but he's generally funny in his hyper, pop-culture way.  (I can't think of anyone else who invoked "an island of Charles Nelson Reillys" when the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" gays in the military controversy came along.)
