Don't Hate Me Because I'm a Snob
I guess I'm a snob. At least according to the new
McDonald's coffee commercials. In one ad, after discovering that Mickey D's now
sells lattes and cappuccinos, two guys rejoice at being able to shave their
goatees, stop calling movies films and talk about football again. The two...

Uh...Okay Then....
Ever have that feeling that you've been there before? Of course, everyone has! It's called Déjà vu! But have you ever experienced Deja Too? You've been there twice, but still couldn't block it out? Picture it, you are way out of your element....

Get a Job
Barack Obama got a new job on Tuesday (and the
party at my house is still going strong). But with unemployment in this country
reaching Terror Alert Orange, the rest of us are now in the market too.
Hopefully it won't take us as long as it did our new...

Texas Tech Shocks the World!

Demonic Possession? No Thanks.
Ever been possessed by the devil? Neither have I, really. I only bring the question up because I rented the Exorcist
on video last week, and it really made me wonder who among my friends
and acquaintances had ever been possessed. I couldn't think of anyone
offhand, but maybe they just hadn't mentioned...

guitars. Walls...

Politics is Scary
Halloween is supposed to be scary. Although it's
scarier where I live. In Eugene, Oregon people dress, shall we say unusually,
365 days of the year, so you don't dare say Cool costume! when you walk by
someone in a bride of Frankenstein outfit because there's...

Voting Blocks
Here it is, the final week of the presidential campaign and I know what you're thinking: is there a single person left in America who hasn't been the subject of some form of candidate outreach? Hockey moms, gun-totin' crazies, undecideds who are driving the rest of us...

The Runaway
He ran, fast. He had pushed me and I stumbled, otherwise he'd not have made it ten yards before I overtook him. I wasn't all that fast, but he was horribly slow. He made it through the Hancock's yard, the Rogers' and around the corner before I tackled him.
You've...

Don't Hate Them Because They're Undecided
I worry about the Undecideds. Sure, they're all
the rage now, what with the media swarming around them like flies around a
day-old pastrami sandwich. But what's going to become of them once the election
is, uh, decided?
For a while I have to admit I was a little jealous
of...

Topless Bottom
I've never been comfortable going into a Topless Bar.
Oh they're called different names depending on who or where you are. Nudie Joints, Titty Clubs, Boobie Bars. My favorite is when they are called Gentlemen's Clubs. Whenever I go to a Gentlemen's Club, the guys that are there...

Big Trouble in Big D
It was a wild week for the Cowboys, to say the least. It started on Sunday with an overtime loss to the Arizona Cardinals, but that was only the beginning. What came next was a perfect storm of injuries that was capped off with the loss of Pro...

Smuggler's Blues
I am in the middle of an eight-day tour of Alaska and the countryside is not the only thing that looks bleak.
I was fortunate enough to have been invited on a cruise from Vancouver
to Glacier Bay and the Inner Passage. I’ve done comedy on cruises many
times so the only...
