Dax Jordan was born in Los Angeles in 1976 in
a coked-out daze. His mother was a laborer, working five jobs,
though none of them paying, and in her spare time was a
stenographer for the homeless. His father was a hypothetical
fisherman who made most of his fortune weaving nets for
sunken ships. After burning their home in L.A., the Jordan
family moved to Sandy, Oregon, into a cave of darkness and
despair both figuratively and literally. There was much love
in the family, but not for Dax. Though his parents adored him,
they made him stand in a ditch in their earthen basement for
most meals, claiming they just didnt have enough room at the
dinner table, even though he had no other siblings. This made
Dax bitter, and he took out his aggression on the playground.
Unfortunately, as a 90-pound weakling, Dax was often
pummeled by bullies, thugs and schoolgirls.
That 90-pound weakling blossomed into a strapping 140-
pound weakling in college at the University of Oregon, where
he got the psychology degree that he still has not used to this
day. At the U of O, Dax’s good-guy looks and passively surly
disposition earned him the nickname Nice Guy Gone Horribly
Wrong, which he is still not able to shake. This pushed Dax
into the dark world of stand-up comedy, where he found that
people were not only laughing with him, but at him as well.
Dax is a free thinker by day (though he’s considering charging
a fee soon) and successful stand-up comedian by night,
giving him a one-two punch unprecedented in the modern
world. His hobbies are golf, pottery, and breaking his own
nose with a ball-peen hammer.

Nothing as exciting as mormon girl fans. I was just in Thule Greenland performing at the Air Force base and that was pretty cool. Now I'm in the Bay area trying to work out some new stuff before heading back to LA. Do you ever make it to SoCal?
