Last night the Funny Bone was unbelievably packed. Every (ok, both) Thanksgiving in St Louis is like that. There were a bunch of pros there, Jeremy Essig, Andi Smith, Arvin Mitchell, Mike MacRae and Greg Warren and some newbies, most recognizable was the little boy stripper that I had to follow back in September. Anyway, I was half-told / half-assumed there wouldn't be any room inside the show room for non-performing open micers (besides, I don't like sitting in packed audiences like that), so I decided to split with Janine Brito and do this open mic that Clayton Champagne had told me about at a lesbian bar called Novak's. We got there around 9, and it took a while (like until 10) to talk to the girl running the show. We signed up and around 11 (maybe?) Janine and I got to go on. The girl, Michelle, called Janine "Janette" when she puller her on stage, not that it mattered because no one in the entire bar really could hear us (or cared to). Janine's and my sets went as well as they could have in a situation like that; but the most exciting part about it all is that I finally found how I wanted to word my bestiality joke in order to combine it will my other porn jokes. It was funny at the time because it popped in my head and I went "Ahhhh" like I was all enlightened or something. Janine recognized the look and immediatly said "Write it down!", which I did.
The newspapers shout a new style is growing,
but it don't know if it's coming or going,
