Update

The comedy gig has rolled into a big snow ball of "What the heck are you doing?" I have discovered a new place to practice. Practice? You say....for what? Well, I opted to sign up for a competition. I'll be competing at the FunnyBone in Omaha, 7:30 on May 9th. If you live around here, and want to come see if I'm funny or not, call ahead and make a reservation. (It's reservation only.) And tell them you're coming to see me. If you give them my name at the door and on the phone with the reservation, it helps me out. They keep tabs. So, if I'm not funny, atleast I'll get "most popular" right? I've always wanted to be popular! ;)

So, I've found a place to go up and practice. Comedians tend to do this stuff late at night and apparently, in dark shady bars. Holla: Saddle Creek Bar. It starts at 10:30p.m. on Tuesday nights. That's my prime bed time. Julz (Holla!) offered to go with me last night. She is so supportive and sweet. I wonder if her kids cared the next morning that mommy is tired because she is a supportive angel for her online girlfriend. Hmmm. Probably not. They're sweet kids, but that's a bit much to ask.

When we pulled up top the bar, Julz(holla!) said, "There's a drive thru bar? Oh, this is blog-worthy!" and then she said, "Les, I don't think you should come here by yourself." We are sheltered women with children, just living out an adventure. I'm sure watching Jeff Healey perform behind a cage in a bar on Roadhouse flashed through her mind.

There was one guy in a ballero, a duster, and some 1980s trite dangle native-american dream-catcherish earring who got upset. Apparently, he was bothered, while playing pool, smoking and downing beers that comedians, it turns out, aren't politically correct. The kid he got mad at I've secretly adopted. He doesn't know it. But I've got your back, Stefen. And for one shining moment, all the comics were supportive and protective, circling up a human shield in defense of mister freakish offended guy. It was a sweet moment.

I now have email on this website and am trying to figure out how to sell ads on it. So, if you're interested in contacting me. Moreover, if you're interested in contacting me about money, yours, not mine. Then, please click on the email access located to the right. You may have to scroll down a bit...it's there. See it?
