Second to None

March 31, 2009

Last night Steph and Deb had rehearsal for the Vagina Monologues. It’s playing this weekend, Saturday night and Sunday afternoon. If you want details write me. While they were out I watched “Second to None” which is a documentary of the process of improv to sketch comedy the way that Second City builds their revues. [...]

Events in Comedy Improv History

March 30, 2009

Such an auspicious title. Hard to live up to that, now, init? So I won’t even try. We had a great decompression session last sunday (the 22nd) sat and talked for hours about what went right and wrong with the show on saturday night and we came away feeling pretty good. Not necessarily about the [...]

Gratitude, Again and Still

March 25, 2009

Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday. My parents had this saying hanging on the wall. The words were written on a small plate that was inserted into a tiny cast iron pan. My one brother thought that was the coolest thing and always said that when my parents died and we divvied up [...]

March 23, 2009

Interesting weekend. The show went pretty well. I would say not the best one ever, but people were laughing and we had good audience participation. Those two factors are the most important, I think. Things didn’t really go according to plan. We weren’t really well prepared – a few glitches there. We had a meeting [...]

Tuning In

My appearance on “Tuning In” last night went well. The show will be available soon here so if you like you can check it out. Story behind the story. I showed up rather early, around 530, because the tech manager at the station said they could use a little extra time to grab the jpeg’s [...]

Pay Attention to Your Intention

March 12, 2009

As we move throughout the day many of our actions are done unmindfully. This is a point I wrote about briefly a few years ago in a book I wrote on increasing life span. When you are driving to a familiar place, how much of the journey do you really remember? Is there a possibility [...]

Defining Roles in Life

March 11, 2009

In order to have success in life you need to figure out what is expected of you and take responsibility to make sure that those expectations are fulfilled. You would hope that the expectations are clearly defined. If you are talking about your professional life, this should be explained by your manager and should be [...]
