About me:
STAND UP COMIC AND DISAPPOINTING UNDER-ACHIEVER.
Jim Gaffigan (the funniest comic working today) has kindly allowed me to open for him on his national tour. It is truly a privilege to work for Jim and perform in-front of smart, hip audiences. (Otherwise I'd be telling dick jokes to drunk townies at some Elks Club.) I am originally from Tennessee and now live in New York City. During my adult life, I have been fired from a wide variety of jobs: Grocery boy, Telephone Operator, Farm Worker, Flight Attendant (don't judge me), Stereo Rep, U.S. Senate Aide, Environmental Activist, Lawyer, Bartender and Waiter. So I am really hoping this comedy thing works out. My comedy is fairly smart and fairly clean. I am occasionally heard on SIRIUS Radio and I have done a few movies--all of which have gone straight to video. (And not even video stores--just video.) I have only received two offers for TV--one a really, really bad reality show and the other a really, really bad sitcom.

Who I'd like to meet:
The merciless God who left me with my ex-girlfriend's three cats.
