my geek Paul


Paul and I are working on the new website. It's gonna be good but it does take time. Paul is an extraordinary guy, has schizophrenia, and has led the internet world in drawing attention to that illness, and hosts international chat groups on the subject. He is required to take a bevy of medications, but does, and is an extremely productive person. He has been learning Flash and so we are trying to incorporate it on to the new site. Paul and I put together the present site about a year and a half ago after a couple years of trying stuff out. We've been learning as we go. Everything should be in place for the upcoming fall season of stand-up. If any readers are interested you can see the new work at site under re-development

shows last weekend


Cranked out a bunch of stand-up sets this weekend. The new jokes are polishing up well, and I've revisited some classics that I forgot about, but are still relevant and funny. I am headlining in Kelowna for three shows (July 20-22). Kelwona is a sweet gig, good money, nice hotel, and, well, Kelowna in the summer. It's like a paid vacation. Plus, they love me there. I was their headliner for New Years Eve, so I'm a bit of a hero around those parts. Always sell a lot of CD's in Kelowna. XM radio has been playing it all the time, so I always run into people that have heard me there. I have only fifty CD's left from the thousand I had made a year ago. Not exactly platinum sales, but there's a thousand of them out there. I almost have enough new stuff for a third CD, but I'll probably do another run of "AT Least There's Drinking" before I launch a new one.
