I was just in Appleton, WI this past weekend at the Skyline Comedy Cafe with two hilarious guys, Cy Amundson and Chad Daniels. We laughed, we drank, we played Wiffle Ball. That’s a good weekend.

The weekend shows were taped for Rooftop Comedy, so I should have a few clips up on there sometime soon.  Also, I had the best Mac and Cheese Pizza ever in Appleton at Sal’s Pizza. You win again, cheese state.

This week/weekend, I’m at Western Illinois University on Wednesday and then Giggles in Brookfield Thursday-Saturday. Looking forward to heading back to Macomb, IL and the old college grounds in the Fall, that’ll be great. I’ll post some new videos (and maybe a new web series?) sometime soon from these eventful two weeks.

Finally, I’m taping this DVD I’ve been blabbing about for some time! The date is October 21st at the fantastic LOL Theater in Schaumburg, IL on the Streets of Woodfield. It don’t get much rougher than the mean Streets of Woodfield. There’s a Legoland AND a Starbucks. Watch your ass in da streets.

But yeah, the show is at 8pm and it’s $10 or $15 and you get two drink tickets. Anthony Sarfino and I will be doing around 40 minutes each. I’ll hopefully have the DVDs within a month after the taping for sale after shows and on the website.

Oh and I ordered a new batch of t-shirts. I’ll have them tomorrow, same shirt, but darker/royal blue and I took my website off. No one reads a shirt and goes to the website right? Unless you just did and now you’re hear. In that case, I’d feel like and idiot.

Tonight is the first show of a new monthly show I’m running at a pizza joint called Barraco’s in Orland Park, IL. Here’s the flyer for the show. It’s gonna be sweet, come check it out if you can!

Sharp Alphabet has come to an end…IN BLACK AND WHITE!

Starting this Sunday February 1st, I’m starting the alphabet over and adding beautiful colors. Now you’ll be able to tell just who exactly is bleeding, crying, or peeing. Thanks to my trusty red, blue, and yellow markers. And others!

Some ideas I had for last month needed some color to really work, so I’ll have those up this month. Here are some notes about my first month doing Sharp Alphabet:

• Some were good, some were bad. My favorite comic was the Morgan Freeman one, which by itself kind of gave me the idea to try to do a new letter everyday. Letter X was the absolute worst. It’s hard to think of things that begin with X, so I’ll try harder later.
• Towards the end of the month, I was having to do like four comics a day to catch up. I’ll try to have like three comics made in advance in Feb. so I never get behind!
• I’m glad people like/dislike the comics! Please let me know if you think one is funny, or if you think one is terrible. Either way you’re looking at my website and that’s what this is all about.

On another note, my last shows at Fox’s on Wolf in Mokena, IL are this weekend. Standup on Friday night at 10pm featuring Pat Chase, Mike Von, and Anthony Sarfino. Variety Show on Saturday night at 8pm featuring some standup/sketch, some magic, and some singing. Feel free to check them out, they’re free!

One month in ‘09 is almost over. I need to learn how to make time slow down.
