Thoughts Had While Flying
The following are thoughts written this past Sunday on a flight from Seattle to New York.
- I’m on a plane, we’re about to take off, and I’m worried. I know it’s unlikely, but what if the movie cuts out?
- I don’t want to die; I still haven’t tried the meatball sub at Salumi.
- Do I have e-coli?
- We can’t crash; I don’t do well with 6 mile falls.
- Either I have e-coli, or my belt’s too tight.

2 weeks agoMight I Recommend…”And Here’s The Kicker” by Mike Sachs
First of all, let me say that I am in no way connected with this book but if you are interested in comedy or if you are a comedy writer you should definitely pick this book up. Sachs does an amazing job of getting incredibly in depth and candid interviews with some of the best comedy writers around. Not only did it give me a new found respect for some people (i.e. Dick Cavett) but some of the candid stories blew my mind. Enjoy.

3 weeks agoBalloon Boy and the Boys - Pussified (via wwtdd.com)
Ok the only thing more bazaar than the fact that he was thought to be trapped in a weird balloon for hours on end was that the Balloon Boy was on WifeSwap and made this very strange rap video called “Pussified.” THIS IS VERY REAL AND VERY WEIRD. The only thing that could make this better was if the kid was Curtis, the “bacon is good for me” kid.

This week’s winner for The New Yorker’s Caption Contest.
I’m frustrated, because I still think the caption that I entered should have won:
“So…are we gonna fuck?”

Read The Comedic Stylings of a Guy Who You Don't Know
The link posted above, if clicked, will take you to a blog written by Wilfred Padua, a fellow aspiring Seattle comedian, member of Seattle improv troupe the Grapeseed project, and all around good minority. From what I’ve gathered, Wilfred plans to post the greatest current event jokes of all time, the greatest comedic essays of all time, and some pretty good short stories. I highly recommend you check the shit out of his blog.
Update: is it “…of a guy whom you don’t know?”
