Shit, Piss, Fuck, Cunt, Cocksucker, Motherfucker, Tits: RIP George Carlin

The comedy world has lost a true pioneer, George Carlin. In fairness I should disclose that I didn't think Carlin was the funniest standup comedian but he was a brilliant satirist who will best be remembered for his "Seven Dirty Words You Can't Say On Television" routine. Sadly, he passed before our society took its collective head out of its ass and realized how harmless words are. As an avid proponent of the First Amendment who despises the FCC, I appreciate and applaud his efforts. Here he is with the revised version of his list: [tags] george carlin, seven dirty words you can't say on tv, comedy [/tags]

Afghanistan ‘08- Day One

Actually, day one was mostly spent on (or waiting for) planes. I flew from LA to NY then transferred to a flight from NY to Frankfurt with ridiculously small seats. My seating companion on the latter flight was a wannabe Borat who liked to chat. Luckily, the only open seat on the flight happened to be next to his buddy so he spent most of the flight there, giving me some room to stretch out. He returned toward the end and said, "I like make present for beautiful woooman" and gave me a box of chocolates. I thought it was kind of strange that he happened to have an extra box of chocolates on him, even more strange when he ...

Take My Damn Picture

Last night I went to a friend's birthday party. A few close friends were there but most of the comics were three minute jobs: they ask me how it's going, I say "all right" and ask them the same, they then spend 2:50 telling me everything going on in their career and personal life and I point to an imaginary friend and say, "Nice talking with you but I have to go talk to that spot on the wall immediately." Not quite- I give the spot a name so as not to give away my desire to escape. After about an hour of greeting people I haven't seen in a long time, I realized I wasn't being groped in the manner ...

From The Blog To The Stage

Last week for the first time, I tried converting bits from my blog into my standup act and some are actually keepers. So thanks to all you readers for keeping me writing regularly. I taped some sets and put a few bits online. Here's one you may recall from a recent post about 7-11. I guess you could call it "live-action blogging": If you care to see any others, you can view them on MySpace.com. I'll probably be adding more soon.

Bombs For North Korea With My Name On Them

Five a.m. rolled around and one of the guys asked, "You wanna paint a bomb?" I had absolutely no idea what that meant so I quickly said, "YEAH!"

Last Comic Standing

I have to comment on the new season of Last Comic Standing, which premiered Tuesday night. I know a lot of people connected with the show: many of the comics, writers, producers, hosts and have played poker with talent scout Ross Mark for years. The biggest surprise of the new season is that Tony Clark is hosting. Last time around, Tony was one of the celebrity judges for the finals in Vegas along with Drew Carey and Brett Butler and there was a bit of a scandal. When the houseguests were announced, the judges were surprised that one of the best comics didn't get in and one of the worst ones did. They compared notes and discovered the results were ...

The Joke’s On Me

While some readers sympathized about my last date, as a 5'10" female standup comic, I guess I should consider myself fortunate to get any dates at all: Funny Women Are A Turn Off Men are intimidated, research says New research has found truth in the old stereotype that most men find funny women a turn-off. Scientists say women who tell jokes are seen as a threat, undermining men's idea that they should hold the dominant role. Hundreds of men and women in their twenties were questioned by academics. Most said they found a sense of humour to be attractive in women - but when asked if they would want to be with a woman who cracked jokes herself, more than half said no. Dr ...
