Merry Little Blog: “I’m Not Myself”- my one woman show!
Hey you guys!
Hope you are swell!
So on July 30th and August 6th I will be having a run through/preview of my one woman show, “I’m Not Myself”.
Just letting you know that it is not a stand up show, it’s more of a play. It’s funny, wacky, maybe touching?, and errie. It is filled with most of…

Morning Debriefing 7/15/11

1) Comedy Legend Don Rickles on Leno Part 1 & 2.
2) It should be obvious what measures you should take if accusing someone of joke thievery, but here’s a pretty comprehensive list on Splitsider, just in case you’re the comedy equivalent of sue-happy.
3) Yesterday, NBC’s Community Showrunner Dan Harmon had a great post about meeting George Gallo, the writer of Midnight Run and the magic of trying to do anything creative. If you haven’t already reblogged it, give it a read.
4) Best 30 Minutes or Less Podcasts from the Plop List
5) If you’re not reading the fantastic daily thoughts of Matt Champagne, perhaps start now by reading a conversation wherein Princess Leia hits on C-3PO.
C-3PO: Might I remind you, Princess, that I am a droid?
LEIA: Your excuses are so cute.
C-3PO: I am fluent in nearly all forms of verbal communication.
LEIA: Oh, I can think of one form you’re definitely not fluent in.
7) Stuff that you might have missed yesterday that we really think you should watch again: the new episode of the Compatish and Ryan Hansen “pranking” the Midnight Show.

11) Designer and writer David Yoon wants to make LA streets narrower so it can be Paris. If you want LA to be Paris, go to Paris and stop complaining, just like those people who hate our hot dogs here vs. their hot dogs from wherever they came from.

Morning Debriefing 7/17/11

1) Why can’t we have something like the Eugene Mirman Comedy Festival here in LA? This sounds pretty fantastic and maybe you should donate to the cause…
2) Real Life: My Girlfriend’s A Bitch with Iliza Shlesinger.
3) Punchline Magazine became Laughspin.com and now there’s a whole page of stuff we contribute.
4) So Kristen Wiig is the voice of Babs in this slightly disturbing reboot of Looney Tunes on Cartoon Network and will produce and star in a suicide themed comedy that focuses on a woman who fakes suicide to gain the attention of an ex-boyfriend. We like this dark comedy streak by Wiig and hope it continues.
5) Remember when David Lynch used to do the daily weather? We’re surprised Lynch didn’t go the route of Rick Shapiro and his frequently posted and out of order Morning Meditations from Our Lady of No Thought Depot.
6) One of the more important things to note about GQ’s current “comedy” issue out on magazine racks now is that no one would know if it’s an issue about comedy if GQ didn’t tell anybody.

10) As reporting of Carmeggedon continues, people are calling the 405 the main freeway in LA. That’s bullshit. The 10 gets no respect? If you want a real Carmeggedon shut down the 10 freeway between the 405 and the 110. (I obviously drive too much and think about these things)

I have to sort through a couple hundred shots this weekend including shots from last night’s Celebrity game show, the Harry Potter Talent show, The PFT show, and Summah Fest…. but in the meantime, here’s a shot of Julie Bowen, who plays Claire on Modern Family.
I admittedly haven’t watched the show, but holy shit is she a quick and funny lady on stage.. she also knows her pop culture. Also, incredibly nice.
