Down but Not Out

"C'mon DCComedy4now....C'mon...godamn it...charge it up...KEEP PUMPING! (grabs young EMT rookie by the collar)...you quit doing chest compressions ? You're goddamn right you keep doin'em! You quit when I grab you by the balls and tell you to quit! So until that time, you keep beat'n on that heart like it owes you money--got it!...Alright!...Clear!...Hit'em again...Clear!...Nothing...One more time...I said one more time! (Go through scene from the end of Aybss)...Alright...we're gonna call it at 1:03 pm...wait...wait...My God...it's logging on! It's logging on!..It may not be the smartest blog in the world..but its a fighter....Well, lets notify the President!...Well, maybe not, but a press release is in order to all...no...probably not...well, ....I'll call my mother.


Well, I'm back from Portland, nice city...I've got just under a half-oz left...Anyway...one observation from interviewing people--When you stick a camera in someones face, its very similar to sticking a gun in their face--their motorskills slow down, they are very careful about what they say and if they do say anything at all, they just scream....Moving on...I see that Aparna has taken care of the place quite nicely. Nick left most of the lights on, some Chinese take-out boxes laying around and porno playing in the boardrooom and it looks like Mr. Hastings took full advantage of that...I can't believe Jay, he of all people, still has a key. Well here is what was in the mailbox:


I'm putting on another show at the Improv Lounge on September 5th. The lineup right now is:
Will Hessler, Lisa Fine, John McBride, Aparna Nancherla, Hampton Yount and Eric Moberg

Thanks in advance.

From Andy Rothwell:


Tuesday (Aug. 26) at Solly's Tavern with featured artist KILLER METEOR (www.myspace.com/thekillermeteors).

And a whole slew of videos from the last month, including a part of MIKE BLEJER's set from last week at the Palace of Wonders, are coming very soon to www.youtube.com/livehumansindc and the podcast - just a little longer getting them all together here...


And from Ayanna Dookie: I just posted a video blog that I wanted you all to check out. Feel free to leave a comment, pass it on to friends, coworkers, etc. I'll be doing a lot more of these (figure this is a good outlet for my issues with the world) so I'll be sure to keep you informed.

Thanks again for all the support you've shown me:-). Enjoy!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kbLZx8PybI Ayanna
