I started my new job as a busser at the Ocean Club in Scottsdale. I'm not sure why I had to show them my Food Handler's card, I don't even touch any of the new food.
The flexible busser schedule will allow me to keep performing every Wednesday and Thursday at the Hidden House and every Monday at The Turf.
New comedy shows are coming to the Yucca Tap Room in Tempe on Sunday and at Plasma in Phoenix on Tuesday.
Come see do comedy, I break a lot less glasses than at the other job.

This week I'll be performing at the Tempe Improv, opening up for Tony Rock. Along with the Hidden House every week and Arizona Joe's in Apache Junction, this April Fool is enjoying this wave of fun stage time.
Be on the look out for a best of Hidden House CD coming soon. Please do not put the CD in your microwave before listening to it. Although it does look like cool lightning coming out of the CD, it is not worth the terrible smell and probable damage to you microwave. You will have a better chance of enjoying the CD if you place it in a CD player or an amusing puppett.

posted on Apr 8th 091st Weclome of the New Year in 3D
As you may have guessed by the title, I have stayed busy enough to ignore all of my resolutions, failing to have a new welcome page every day of the new year.
Truth be told, I did not make any resolutions this year, not because I'm perfect, just because, why lie to myself because it is cold outside? The holidays are a great time to enjoy yourself.
Put on your 3D glasses. The jokes should look like they are coming right at you.
We all have a couple more weeks to use the "Fuck it. It's the holidays." reasoing to continue to over indulge in everything from eating too much turkey, to drinking too much goats blood (or Bud Light Lime if you can't find anything else) during the voodoo cermony to bring fertility to your neighborhood, along with the alluring scent of Churros.
When March rolls around you can no longer use the "Holidays" excuse. You either have to clean up your act, tighten your belt, or just admit that your are overdoing things because over doing is what you do, oh so well.
If you want to O.D. on laughs, the Hidden House has the highlights of shows in the audio podcast section of the I-tunes store, for FREE. Take a 15 minute laugh break at work. It's like a smoke break, but much healthier for you and wasn't that one of your resolutions?

Please do not trample anyone, trying to enjoy my new and improved website. There is enough funny to go around. No need to push and shove. If you do want to kill a random Wal-Mart employee, I'm sure they will thank you.
