mental note: be funny more

Since the Laughs open mic got moved to Thursday, I decided to head over to Fairview Heights, IL. It's been a while since I've been there and lately I've been calling and trying to get a spotlight. As my luck would have it, Tommy Johnagin was featuring for Todd Yohn. Anyway, they needed an MC for the night, and I got do go on. I've not done 10 minutes in a little while, and the crowd was a little "tight" but Todd was complimentary and said my set had good flow. On the way home I saw a billboard for Miller Light and Nascar with #2 Rusty Wallace. The slogan was "Up for the Challange". Challange? Of drinking and driving fast? I think that billboard is daring people to get D.U.I.'s. Alcohol products shouldn't be able to sponsor something if being drunk doesn't help. Miller shouldn't promote Nascar or football. Miller Light should sponsor stuff like having sex with ugly people, or committing petty crimes. They could have a slogan like "Miller Light, helping you steal stuff from Walmart drunk, since 1938".

If Hip Hop didn't pay, I'd rap for free

Which is older, Miller beer or Walmart? First to answer correctly wins a cookie!
