I’m psyched for summer already! I’ll be visiting the Queen in June, or at least looking at her London Castle as I drive past. July 11 is one year anniversary for Venice Underground Comedy! What a great year that’s been! And wait until you hear what we have planned for that night! Then August is Edinburgh– multiple shows for 25 days straight… I’ll be a machine when I’m back… a tired, tired machine. And of course, in 2012, I’ve got my summer body back for the first time since college. Perhaps saying things like “summer body” explains why I haven’t gotten laid in many a season….

Quotes for the self-help book you’ll never read (because I barely write):
Weight Loss Motivation – “Just remember, food is to fuel as your body is to a truck… And no one wants to fuck a truck!”
Get Out of My (Own) Way – “Stop treating yourself like an asshole.”

Sweet, another VeniceUground review! I’m the luckiest comic in LA because I get to do the best show in LA every week!

It’s a Good Year
Funny how when you get out of your own way and do the work, good stuff happens. The goal for 2012 is to stop acting like I’m 12. For the 6’7″ monster, it’s time to grow up.
So what’s so great? Venice Underground Comedy kicks ass, for one! I LOVE VENICE! I LOVE COMEDY! And with VenUground, I introduced them to each other and, it turns out, they love each other too. We make a sexy, fun, dirty threesome! Local support has been UNREAL! Venice peeps won’t go anywhere if they can’t ride bikes, skateboard or stumble to it. That said, in this crazy town they’ve got choices, and they’re choosing the basement of Townhouse on Wednesdays. And because the crowds are so good, and the Townhouse is AWESOME (check it out), the best comics in the business are coming down into our historic Speakeasy Basement. Every week is like comedy school for me– watching the best, and dealing with chaos Venice creates. I love my peeps, but we’re a freak show, my lanky ass included. Long story short. Wednesdays are my favorite day of the week!
What else? Dropped 20 pounds so far this year. It was easy, all I had to do was stop eating like I was 12. No added exercise. I figured it was easier to be conscious of what I eat. Here’s my weight-loss plan summed up in as few words as possible: Food is fuel. Like gasoline, low grade fuel leaves disgusting deposits and that cause knocking, pinging and horrific emissions. I’m not concerned with the weight so much as the positive benefits of losing it. And here’s the motivator that keeps me going: FOOD is to FUEL as your BODY is to a TRUCK… NO ONE wants to FUCK a TRUCK.
