If you run at relatively recent version of OS X, you can go into the Speech system preference and turn on "Speakable Items." Since most Macs have always come with a built-in microphone, you can then experiment with controlling your Mac via speech recognition. It comes with a whole bunch of pre-programmed recognized commands, but you can also program your own. And, now to the point-- one of the pre-programmed commands it recognizes is "Tell me a joke."
If you tell it to tell you a joke, it tells you one of its pre-programmed knock-knock jokes in whatever voice you have chosen. And it responds to your "who's there?" and "banana who?" almost like a real boy.
This person apparently could not get the punch line for a "tinkerbell" knock-knock joke. Must be in OS X Tiger, because I don't think I've heard that one in Panther that I use.
