To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the release of comedian/actor Dane Cook's album Harmful If Swallowed, Comedy Central Records recently announced a limited edition vinyl version with exclusive new artwork. The one thousand copy edition went on sale earlier this month.

Why did Comedy Central do this? I have no idea. I can only guess someone at the channel, or Cook himself is a vinyl fan, or grew up listening to comedy records. I did. Nothing funnier than Woody Allen's or Lenny Bruce's albums or especially 2000 Years With Carl Reiner and Mel Brooks originally issued on World-Pacific Records, so perhaps Cook wants to complete the circle.

You can order the record on Amazon.com and maybe it will be delivered to you by drone.

Whether or not you find Cook funny, is a matter of comedic taste, but I definitely found funny the question posed by the publicist who emailed me the information. He asked "Need anything else from my end?"

I replied "First send me your picture." No I didn't, but to me that's funny.
