So there I am at the bar talking to Angie.
Who’s hot.
I haven’t seen Angie in years and when I last saw her, she was at her going away party with her boyfriend, Ted. This was at the close of a two year association. I had met the couple right after the break up with Julia. [...]
So it is time for the second ever Standard Issues show, for which we have a ridiculous line up and a great theme, which is…
JERKS!
Cyndi chose this theme. She’d had a bad day. But it put me in mind of this story.
I have an aunt that made a hobby of marrying well. And by well, [...]
There is going to be two posts today. First, the shows. Then, below this, I have a piece I call “Corkscrew” that I am very nervous about putting up. It is about the darkest parts of yourself and how they can be expressed when you really start digging that hole deep. It goes faster when [...]
So, once again, it is my day to post over at And I am Not Lying. This post has video. I know how y’all like the movin’ picture shows. I do too. So click on image, go to magic land, then come back and read the story I am posting below.
So, back in July, I [...]
So I was outside just now and my downstairs neighbor is watching MASH reruns. It made me want to post this, a thing I call “Good Ol’ Boy Zilla and Son Of Good Ol’ Boy Zilla.” It all makes sense after the jump. But hearing MASH on a big day when lots of big things [...]
Hopefully no one is looking to make this a trilogy.
So, immediately after I finished listening to the This American Life story about how Peter Segal’s screenplay about the Cuban revolution became Dirty Dancing 2; Havana Nights, I got a message saying that a script I wrote six years ago has finally received financing. Don’t [...]
Before we discuss anything else, a reminder: Moth Podcast, me on it, July 26th.
And yes, my Dr. Phil Strip Tease at Told went great. Thanks for asking.
Tonight I will be appearing at a show at Comix. It is my first time on the show, which is called Service Not Included. It is hosted by Justin [...]
First, I don't know this guy. Second, the photo will make sense when you get further into the post.
I received a facebook message a little bit ago that really took me off guard. This is what it was -
“Thank you, again, for telling your Grand Slam story about an ex not forgiving a “mistake.” [...]
I'M OPEN!
I have shows coming up and I will tell you all about them. BUT, before we get there, I want to talk about how you tell a story, or in this case, how you don’t, or just knowing that you are in the process of telling a story.
I do not follow sports. I’ve [...]
We are going to talk about some things. Mainly getting older and closer to death. But before that, y’all should know that Cyndi and I will be doing guest contributions to Jeff Simmermon’s amazing and beloved culture blog And I Am Not Lying. The same site that brought you the great DC coffee shop feud [...]
