Memorial Day Weekend
Since it’s almost the weekend again, here’s a little update on last weekend. Friday night Rachel and I drove down to Lansing, and I did some stand-up for the “Comedy Clash”. I did ok, but there are many places I can improve. There were several guys from GR there, and they invited […]

Stand-Up
I did some stand-up comedy this weekend at a cancer benefit dinner. I was very nervous beforehand–it was kind of my first time doing just stand-up. Usually when I perform, I’m either doing improv with a group, or if performing alone, doing something more variety-type like singing or reading a parody. But it went pretty […]

Peace
This is a picture of me and Cindy Sheehan. It was taken this past Tuesday at the event I went to in Kalamazoo. There were several speakers, and Cindy Sheehan spoke last. One of my favorite speakers was a young man who actually wasn’t originally scheduled to speak. Derek was 25 years old, had served in […]

I watched a short interview with her […]

To Infinity Plus One
The closing of a call I took this week:
Me: You have a great day.
Customer: You have a better one.
Have you ever been to a party where you gave someone a gift……..a book perhaps, and then someone else gives them a book, but it’s plated in 24k gold? No? Well, it’s just an analogy. I offered […]

All in the Timing
At the office today:
Coworker #1 is eating pudding without any utensils. Coworker #2 sees this.
Coworker #2: You wanna spoon?
Me (From across the room): That’s kind of personal!
And….scene.

Ants, Part 2
No, I’m not obsessed with ants. But, as this is the beginning of ant season, we are given many opportunities to ponder their mysterious world. An ant was crawling across my ceiling the other day. As I watched it, I started wondering–do ants ever FALL OFF the ceiling? Yes, they have six legs, and the […]

Cinco de Mayo and Raising Your Kids
Happy Cinco de Mayo! This is the day when we celebrate the great battle between February and May. February originally had 29 days, and May originally had no “5th” day. May attacked February and was victorious. As a prize, May took one day from February, leaving February with only 28. Thus began the celebration of […]
