George Carlin, Letterman, Comedy Central

What has been going on?
Plenty.
Why didn't I blog sooner.
Tired, apathetic, distracted. (I found out they have pictures of naked women on the internet.)

George Carlin died.
It sucks, because he was so goddamn good at stand up.

I got to work with him a couple of times.

He was nice and honest and funny and still working his ass off to get better.
It was inspiring to watch him.

I did the Late Show with David Letterman for the fourth time.
It went very well.

Here I am with (the incredibly cool) Michelle and John,
the hair and makeup people on the show.

You heard me right. I am wearing makeup.

I did The Great American Comedy Festival in Norfolk, Nebraska.
Got to see some great comics.
Jim McDonald.
Joe DeRosa.
James Smith.
Deacon Gray.
Jeff Caldwell.

I got to meet Dick Cavett and Robert Klein.

What else?
Same old stuff.
Drinking coffee.
Writing jokes.
Doing stand up.
Feeling uncomfortable.
Sneaking cigs.

I have nothing to complain about.
I do anyway though.

I'll be at The Gotham Comedy Club this week, then Zanies in Chicago,
then other places where they serve beer and serve jalapeno poppers.

Hope you are well.

If not, there are beers and various drugs, prescription and otherwise, to give you some other options.

Much Luck,
Nick

Who is the girl in red?

And why does she looks so glum in the Dick Cavett photo?
