Running order at the All Female Ladies Show on Monday night. Yes, under that scribbling it does say Tina and no, that’s never happened to me before.

Recently I was reading a magazine and I found this equation:
St. Johns Wort + Birth Control = Baby
At first I thought, okay, I get it. If you take St. Johns Wort while you’re on Birth Control, it loses its efficacy and you have a higher chance of getting pregnant.
But then I thought, “What if?”
What if [...]

Was this picture of Dr. Jeff Life of www.cenegenics.com possibly doctored? Nah!
On another note, did this guy luck out with the last name “Life” or what?
If your last name is Life and you become a doctor, you’ve got it made. It doesn’t even matter if you’re any good at doctoring.
Patients would be knocking down the [...]

It’s time for all the creeps to come out at the “All Female Ladies Show” this coming Monday night (1/25) at Zanies Chicago.
I say “creeps” because when you see that a show features “Wacky Women”, “Girls Who Make You Giggle” or the redundant “All Female Ladies Show”, it’s safe to say it’s only appealing to the [...]

I was doing some research on the relationship of Bill Cosby and his wife Camille for the website I started with my sister (www.proposalmagazine.com – check it out!). I found this article from The Beaver Country Times, dated April 16, 1968.
I was just as shocked as I’m sure you are to find the origin of [...]

I’m always looking for a good “photoshop disaster” (you can see them at the awesome site: http://photoshopdisasters.blogspot.com/) I found one of my own, walking through a Target the other day.
Pampers introduces Swaddlers New Baby.
But that doesn’t look too weird, does it? With the pupils bleeding onto the eyelashes and all?
Here’s a close-up, so you can [...]

“Oh, boy! Oh, boy! Three wishes? Let’s see. I wanna nice, juicy steak. Yeah, a nice juicy steak!… And a nice, big yard! And, let’s see one more wish… Um, a nice, juicy steak! Yeah, yeah, yeah! Oh, boy! Oh, boy!”

I did a standup show last weekend here in Chicago.
The theater had recently finished a production of Rent, and the managers had decided to keep up the scenery from the play permanently.
The performance space looked kind of cool and urban. I’d say it was a mix between the set from In Living Color and Sesame Street. [...]

Back in 2004, I worked on the MTV show, The Newlyweds.
For those of you that don’t remember, The Newlyweds was a reality series that followed the newly married couple Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey (who later divorced.)
My job was to watch raw footage and summarize the content that was shot.
Sounds a lot [...]
