Where Sam doesn't play anymore ...Rick's Cafe Americain

What does this mean? It means that it is time for me to make another audition tape! This time, the jokes will be as funny as the last tape but I won’t jerk around like I’m davening.

So click on the images to get the details about the show or just read this:

Thursday, May 10 at 8PM at Mo Pitkin’s - 34 Avenue A between 2d St. and 3d St. Only $5!

So, who else is on this show? My coproducer once again is Rachael Parenta. She is an excellent coproducer because she does most of the work. Adrienne Iapalucci and Claudia Cogan complete the bill.

Our headliner is the hilarious Pete Holmes. Pete Holmes is on VH1’s Best Week Ever, was on Comedy Central’s Premium Blend, is a favorite at CollegeHumor.com and is the host of periodic late-night open mic Gut Bucket at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre with TJ Miller. Also, we play poker together sometimes.

The whole thing is hosted by Tony Camin, who has also been on Premium Blend, is one of the co-writers of hit play The Marijuana-logues, and is the co-host of talk show Broin’ Out with Leo Allen, currently at UCB. Here is another clip of him.

Seriously, this is going to be awesome.

From the AP:

[F]ormer Arkansas governor [Mike Huckabee] also left open the possibility that, if elected, he would increase the number of U.S. troops in Iraq and change the Pentagon’s policy on gay service members, although he insisted he would take his cues from military commanders on both fronts.

As a guy so Christian that he doesn’t believe in evolution, I’m going to guess that he takes a hard biblical line on homosexuality also. So he is wrapping the entire conservative agenda in a neat little bow by upping the active duty military in Iraq by sending homosexuals to die.

From ESPN.com:

[Louis] Orr’s hiring [at Bowling Green] makes the MAC one of the most diverse conferences in Division I. Orr becomes the eighth African-American coach in the 12-team league.

If there used to be 7 black coaches and 5 white ones, doesn’t this make the conference less diverse?

If this dead blog is going to be good for anything, it will be self-promotion, So, on that note…

I have gotten in bed with the kids from America’s Finest News Source.The Onion launched the Onion News Network last week and I am one of the contributors. I haven’t had anything on the air yet but if I do, you’ll here it here. I have also been doing some voice work for the Onion Radio News including here, here, here and here.

Also, I was recently invited to write for the Looking at the Look Book column on Gawker, a cheap shot at New York Magazine’s “Look Book” feature. I’m happy with it, but Gawker’s usually acrid commenters apparently decided that they could anger me more by not commenting at all than by insulting me. Which turns out to be the case. Well played, jerkoffs.

Anyway, here is the promo for ONN. The site will update frequently, so get the RSS feed. This clip contains an ad for Dewar’s which I have decided I can live with:
