Who I'd like to meet: Bill Clinton, George Carlin, Elvis Costello, John Irving, Gene Hackman. Now that would be an interesting dinner conversation.
I sure wish it were the following weekend you were going to be in Lansing! We're going to be right next door in Mason the following Friday for a week vacation! My husband was even disappointed! He would have loved to see your show again! Anywhere close to that area the following weekend/week?
scott- saw your dvd- loved it when you go to the audience and the guy says, "Im just F***ing her" that cracked me up! who says that?!? Great stuff though. Good luck in chi-town. I am keeping down the fort in OP, Kansas.
Great sketch on Sunday, as usual. Have fun "Tribbling" this week. Nice job by your Hawkeyes last Saturday. Thank God, as the Cyclones were one of my few winners. LOL
At Heathrow Airport today, an individual, later discovered to be a public school teacher, was arrested trying to board a flight while in possession of a compass, a protractor, and a graphical calculator.
Authorities believe he is a member of the notorious Al-Gebra movement.
He is being charged with carrying weapons of math instruction.
