I have a book entitled Situation Comedy for Magicians by Clettis V. Musson and I LOVE the concept of the book. It talks about different things you can do durring an act or show that will help add humor to an act or performance.

"A Bit Corny.
Have an ear of corn in your pocket or out of sight on the table. If a joke fails to register, say: "I used to be a mind reader and at this time I'm goign to give you a demonstration. You will begin to see the very thought that is goign through your minds." Pull out the ear of corn and hold it aloft."
