Saw Carrie and Miller’s Crossing tonight on Netflix streaming. News flash to no one: they’re good!
May I improv nerd out a bit here? Big improv night tonight at UCBT-NY.
First of all, I get to sit in on the Reuben Williams show at 10:30pm, a huge thrill in itself — but even more fun is I’m playing with my brother, Erik Tanouye, Gavin Speiller and Jon Gabrus. Put in terms of Harold Night-ness: that’s three 1985ers and two fwandies. All you people who used to love watching 1985 and fwand on Harold Night check it out. Whoever is funnier between Gavin and Gabrus wins. Also, there’s a high chance for a scene about two vampires playing rugby versus Albert Pujols. Yes, that is an endorsement.
Secondly, Omelette Vision at 7:30pm: Secunda, Delaney and Conroy. Three [...]
For those of you discouraged by criticisms of Obama’s first year, I point you to this — it was item number one in The Economist‘s “The World This Year” round-up:
Barack Obama was inaugurated as America’s 44th president. In a whirlwind first year in office, Mr. Obama overturned a prohibition on federal funding for stem-cell research, eased some restrictions on dealing with Cuba, lifted a ban on people with HIV traveling to the United States, pushed Congress to pass health-care reform, promised to close the detention camp at Guantanamo, pledged a cut in American’s emissions and promoted the first Hispanic person to the Supreme Court.
I’ll remind you that The Economist is a conservative British magazine, which has a skeptical attitude [...]
Joe Lieberman Blocks More Things New video from LandlineTV!
I’ll say it: Michael Delaney is funny.
Also, I’m in this at the end.
HP Web Cams Are Racist. This is a simple and hilarious and sad demonstration of the camera will not recognize him, but easily recognizes his white co-worker. “The worst part is I bought one for Christmas.”
I think “You Won’t See Me” might be my favorite song on Rubber Soul. For the Oooh La Las, of course.
Last Christmas Karaoke by Kevin Scott and starring Matt Oberg. A warm and pleasant and funny thing. Oberg is so hilarious that even in this where he is mostly very low key I find myself laughing out loud. I also enjoy that Ashley Ward’s character always wears reindeer ears to Xmas parties.
I removed the longer version of “Pecs” and put up a shorter cut. I updated my earlier post but people with RSS readers won’t get that updated version. Must stop fussing, I know.
A shorter cut of “A Man Wants Someone To Feel His Pecs.”
A Man Wants Someone To Feel His Pecs. Starring Dom Manozlillo and Molly Lloyd. Written/directed by me. Camera / special effects by Matt Mayer. Boom and equipment by Kevin Hines.
Pardon me while I talk far too much about this: I promised myself to do 12 videos before June 1 that are “in my voice.” Implied in that are videos that are a bit weird. This is one of them. I wrote the script for National Sketch Writing Month and even though there’s no real premise or hard game, it always made me laugh. I’d go back and re-read it and just wanted it [...]
Getting ready to go to the airport to go back to NYC.
