Greetings once again from the Middle East. Here is another round of random thoughts:
-I have been watching a lot of the news channels lately, (hey, it can happen), and I noticed that on every channel they have a “terror expertâ€. What exactly is that and how can I get the job? According to my last 3 girlfriends, I am overqualified as a “terror expertâ€. And really, who are these people? I don’t recognize any of them. When I think of “terror expert†I am expecting to see Stephen King or Wes Craven. Those people they are showing don’t scare me at all.
-It sure seems like everybody has a friend named Steve.
-The steroid issue. Between baseball, football and professional wrestling, steroid abuse is everywhere. If a drug can make you that much better at your chosen profession, wouldn’t a lot more people be doing it? I am thinking about giving them a try to see how they would affect my job as a comic. Would they make me funnier? I doubt it… but I bet more people would laugh just to avoid the risk of “Comic ‘Roid Rageâ€.
-Video killed the Radio Star…with a lead pipe in the Billiard Room.
-I was yelled at the other day for getting rid of the leftovers… granted I was accomplishing this by stuffing them down the sink’s garbage disposal as fast as possible and yelling “Eat it!”
-Speaking of that, those little paper shredder things are cool, too. Almost the same entertainment level as in-sink garbage disposals. By the way, you can’t fit a cat in either.
Until next time….drinks are on me.
