Please Donate to the Red Cross

A few years ago, I drove from from New Orleans, LA, through Mississippi to Gulf Shores, AL. It was a fantastic road trip highlighted by great food, warm people and a sublime landscape. Now a large portion of that journey is submerged under several feet of water that is soiled with debris, gasoline and more than a few corpses.

This isn't the worst natural disaster that has ever been...it's not even the worst that's taken place in the last year. But it's on my turf, in the region that I will always think of as home. So I ask you to please, please, take a moment and donate to the Red Cross today.

A Quick Moment With Carol

If there's something hotter than Michael Pare and Diane Lane in 1984's
Streets of Fire, I don't want to know about it.

This has been a quick moment with Carol.

a coworker at a group lunch yesterday:

Her: You seem funny.

Me: I have no friends.

An Interview With Mike Birbiglia

We're creeping up on the one year anniversary of our first and only Drink at Work interview, so in celebration we've decided to add a new one!

If you haven't seen or heard of Mike Birbiglia before, it was only a matter of time. He's going to be huge. Not Drew Carey huge. Not Ray Romano huge. But "Oh my God, it's headed straight for us!" huge. Plus, he's a really, really, really nice guy and we just LOVE him. You will, too.

If you buy this, we will never be friends:

Thanks for the memories!

We want to give a very big thank you to everyone who came to our benefit party last night, as well as our fantastic publicist Kambri Crews of Ballyhoo Promotions for help making the party a reality and Mindy Tucker for taking pictures.

Of course, we also want to thank Tracey, Danny and the entire crew at Siberia for hosting our party and letting us takeover their entire basement floor for the event.

Furthermore, we'd also like to thank all our "Quiz Game Contest Show" prize contributors: VH1's Best Week Ever for the T-shirts, The King of France for the official band T-shirt and CD, cartoonists Rina Piccolo of Tina's Groove and Six Chix and Vic Lee of Pardon My Planet for their donated artwork and The Daily Show for tickets to their show.

And to all those who said they were interested in seeing our play This Isn't Working, tickets can now be purchased here (click on desired date). Our first show is Saturday, August 13th at noon, less than two weeks away.
