It's still only 12F out there. CURSES.

Oh well. I guess I can't let Dana go outside while we wait for our other friend to arrive, because she may just decide to take another flight back to Texas.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

His escalator bit will start running through my head every once in a while.
Exactly! Whenever I see a broken escalator, all I think is "temporarily stairs. Sorry for the convenience"

I can't believe I don't know this. I thought I knew a lot about stand-up.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's funny--I know my little corner of standup and improv pretty well. And when I was still living in Montreal, ver well. But if standups didn't come through there, either to the two comedy clubs or the annual festival, they almost didn't exist.

No Princess Bride musical. How can I miss it when I only just found out it was supposed to happen? But I do.

Oh crap. I was going to call the mechanic today, wasn't I?

Oh well, it's not like he could do anything until Tuesday morning anyway. I'll just call then. And not drive very far.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I want someone to be influenced by MY style!

I would TOTALLY steal your hair.

Does that help?

The only comedians mentioned I have heard of are Leary and Bill Cosby.

I can't believe I don't know who Hedberg is. Was, I suppose, if he's dead.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Well, I did cite the Jim Fix joke up thread, which was apparently a straight-up theft

Yeah, but there's also the possibility of parallel evolution, so to speak. I mean...at least a couple of times in my past I've made cracks just hangin' with my friends at Denny's only to have some comedian spout it almost word for word a few months later on Comedy Central...and I *know* they didn't steal it from me.

Yeah, that happens. Something just hits the...is that what a "Zeitgeist" is? David Simon loves that word and it leaves me just sort of...wtf?Flea, rent "Bill Hicks, Sane Man." And not just cause Hecubus is making me feel guilty for stealing money from a dead guy out of Bostonian thrall. It really is quite brilliant.
