well, i know that's flip wilson's voice. he used to have his own comedy
show
in the 70s on tv. i'm assuming that the sample is from one of his records
or
something like that, however, it's possible it might have been from an snl
skit--it's entirely possible that flip guested on the show, richard pryor
did...

anyway, flip had one character he used to do in drag (geraldine) and i'm
sure
that's the source of the sample. btw, he also used to do a bit called "here
comes the judge", and he's also famous for "the devil made me do it" (not
that he originated that phrase, but he *is* known for it).
