Construction sites everywhere shut down... :p
Is there a technical term for one of those hits of the snare and cymbal which follows one of those jokes?

Rimshot?

I think he means something like this, like DB posted in the Yahoo Baseball thread:

Thank you, thank you. Try the veal, it's the best in the city.
I believe that DMC is correct. I believe it is called a rimshot. From Wikipedia's definition of rimshot:
The term is erroneously used to refer to the sting played by the drummer in cabaret shows to accentuate the punchline of a joke. As a result, a particularly obvious laugh line is sometimes called a rimshot.
That DMC is quite a young man!!

Here's another joke.
Modern tale of the Birds and the Bees
A little boy goes to his father and asks "Daddy, how was I born?" The father answers: "Well son, I guess one day
you will need to find out anyway! Your Mom and I first got together in a chat room on Yahoo. Then I set up a date via e-mail with your Mom and we met at a cyber-cafe. We sneaked into a secluded room, where your mother agreed
to a download from my hard drive. As soon as I was ready to upload, we discovered that neither one of us had used a firewall, and since it was too late to hit the delete button, nine months later a little Pop-Up appeared that said: "You got Male"
:p
