ah! Thanks! Yea, it was great meeting you. Your show was great fun! We have played with a lot of troupes last summer at the Top of Utah Comedy jam, and Jokyr and Jesster were there. They are really great guys, and awesome improvisors.
Let us know if you are ever going to be clear out in the middle of nowhere, and we could hook up a show!

So...

I never accept invites from bands/hookers/comedy troupes - the three most pervasive forms of life, excepting fifteen year olds listing their age as twenty-one, on Myspace - but I've had one drink too many on a "school night" and am beginning to drink my requisite three glasses of anti-hangover water while listening to your "egg" improvisation.

Which makes me laugh, and want to have another drink.

So, I'm either an alcoholic or you're funny.

Either way, tomorrow's hangover is all your fault.

...and thus a Myspace friendship was born.
