Once upon a time there was Stefan Lawrence and Alex Zalben. They then met and voted Geoff Haggerty and Jeff Solomon into their comedy group. Then they all voted in Chris Principe. Then the first two graduated and went to New York, and three years later the other three all went to New York too and they formed Elephant Larry. Next they performed together for four and a half years and wrote this bio. The end...???
Performing comedy, writing comedy to perform, performing comedy in different cities, thinking about new comedy to write, making jokes and then realizing those jokes are actually comedy, resenting comedy for intruding on our jokes, realizing we love comedy anyway, letting comedy back in the house because comedy apologized and promised to never do it again.
Music
Sticks 'n' pans.
Movies
Children Of Men. We like to believe that all children are children of men, but there ya go.
Television
It begins and ends with Lost. We all watch Lost but can't talk about it, cuz there's always one of us who has one more episode to watch. We have all seen varying amounts of Futurama, Six Feet Under, Curb Your Enthusiasm and Arrested Development. We honestly can't talk about any of it.
Books
Jeff got us these great books for Christmas. He got Alex the "Napoleon Dynamite Quotebook." He got Geoff "Napoleon Dynamite Mad Libs." He got Stefan the "Napoleon Dynamite Sketchbook." And he got Chris "Angels In Pink: Kathleen's Story" but only because he couldn't find "The Philosophy Of Napoleon Dynamite."
Heroes
Non-sexual male crushes: Phil Hartman, John Hodgman, Sufjan Stevens, Dave Foley, Charlie Kaufman, Peter Krause, Gary Carter/Don Mattingly, Joss Whedon. And Chris says he likes Stalin, but he doesn't.
Sexual female crushes: Scarlett Johannson, Kate Winslet, Hermione from Harry PottWHATNO.
