Random Thoughts

So here are just some things that strike my brain as funny. I hope they do you too. We'll see.

 - I love when you're at a football game and they're showing the crowd on the jumbotron. They always get that guy how is looking to the side to see if he's on there, and then suddenly he is. His head starts swiveling back and forth like a bobble head trying to both see himself up there and looking at the camera at the same time. * Warning the later in the game this happens the more likely he is to recreate the exorcist.

- We drove past people tailgaiting and cooking burgers in the parking lot of McDonalds. No shit. Doesn't that sort of defeat the purpose. Why not just go in and eat inside. The best part is no one thought it was wrong at the time. Any other time and those guys would be arrested for trespassing.

- We had a guy behind us (we were on the 3rd level, easily 400 yards from the field) yelling at the players on the other team. Don't get me wrong he was good at the insults. "You guys suck. Sanchez you're a MF'in D'Bag. Dirty Sanchez (my favorite btw)". The best part was his buddy who after 3 full min of the other guy screaming at the top of his lungs would try and half yell "yeah, you suck". He was like that little dog in the cartoons. "yeah Spike. Let's go Spike." --- Bonehead.

The End of an Era - RIP Kevin Knox

There are comedians and then there are Comedians. I make the capitol 'C' distinction because in a group like this some folks just stand out from the crowd. Weather they be a great writer, or performer, or both. Kevin Knox was all that and more. As well as being one of the nicest, strongest people you could ever have met. I knew Kevin for more than a decade. I only really saw him at shows or on the road, but I like to think we were friendly if not friends. His personality and presence were a huge factor in how I came up in the business. I saw his act countless times over the years and laughed as hard the last time as the first. But it was because Kevin always gave it his all. Always made sure that the audience got what they came for. That always inspired me to be a better perfomer. He was a great comedian. He was a great man, and he will be missed by me and countless others.

Rest in Peace Kev. You earned it.
