I am betting this has been the most social clip today about @LaughFest. Congrats, #FOX17 http://t.co/Kk0wDir

And thanks to @emilyrichett and @briankelly for putting up with all the comics who stormed that segment.  It was daunting how much we crammed in a few minute broadcast.

Now can we break that world record tonight for the most rubber chicken's tossed at one time?

My biggest stats of the past week HAVE been a laughing matter as postings for #LaughFest rise to the top!

Sadly, my live performances are best enjoyed in the small company of my #LaughPack

LaughFest debuts in March 2011 in Grand Rapids, MI.

Do you know where I am today?

The sun does help my mood on a very cold and mile high snow day. #LaughFest (read on...)

My comedian buddy from LA, Skyler Stone, texted to see how the town was holding up.

I replied, "Dude this sucks. Snow has nowhere to go. But to show solidarity for my female dog who stands in drift to urinate with her you-know-what resting in the cold stuff, I'm jumping into snow banks to piss balls deep in snow. Hey, no one wants an Egypt in their home, right?"

My neighbors are not so amused but no one ever said I was a part of the clean club. I hope you are finding humor as a way to cope.

#LaughFest is just a little over a month away.

(sound of soap bar being inserted in my mouth)

Going through lots of pencils on this project. #LaughFest

This is all I can show you of this exciting art project for Gilda's Club of Grand Rapids. But I am using lots of graphite. February is the 10 year mark for our local club. Help them celebrate by making a donation or buying a ticket to #LaughFest (or both) Gilda Radner's comedy including her one woman on Broadway show made a huge impact on my wit at an early age. LaughFest is a fitting celebration!

I may be sick at home on #NYE but I still have my sense of humor.

While I could not attend the Rumsey's annual NYE party in East Hills,I did send over some homemade sweets that I am sure have Mark and Joleen laughing.

I think of them as cupcakes with a hyper-local touch.  Besides, anarchists really hate us for our sense of humor. 

Fight Anarchists with Cupcakes!   Word!

Happy New Year Urban Dwellers!

RNC via Craigslist (Humor from the Tubes of the Internet)

Ok, I am not meaning to pick on the GOP at their grand old party, but there are funny things to be found each day of this affair in Saint Paul.

While yesterday I briefly covered birth control for pigeons (but obviously not for children) and the painting the city's trees green.

But today with Labor Day behind us, it is time to get back to work and delve into the internet which for the GOP is truly a series of tubes...and sometimes big uncut ones, too.

Often I have remarked that the modern cartoonist should just hang it up in light of the comedy found on Craigslist.

One of my favorite bloggers who would never dare publish their passion for this comic activity sent me a highlight of my favorite activity. So without any editing I present the most recent posting from the RNC's St. Paul via my good friend.

A Children’s Treasury Of Republican M4M Ads In Minneapolis St. Paul

The Republican National Convention has brought truckloads of new visitors to the Twin Cities — and with every event getting canceled in honor of the poor black people who didn’t get killed in the hurricane yesterday, veritable dozens of GOP males were left in their swank hotel rooms with nothing to do. Let’s find out what happens when a bunch of closeted, discreet hairless dudes go looking for good clean fun on Craigslist …


Discretion Required - m4mm (Upscale Hotel)
Date: 2008-08-30, 5:19AM CDT
ATTN: discretion is mandatory. must be willing to submit to background check and strip searches. absolutely no recording devices or wireless communication devices allowed. you will be examined and scrutinized by security before you make contact. 50yo Male looking for VERY discrete four-hour party at local hotel involving more than one male with a maximum age of twenty. hairless preferred. food, drinks, and toys will be provided as necessary.

This one gets points off for redundant headline and first sentence. Otherwise A plus for spelling “discreet” correctly.

young guy in town for the convention, looking for a good time - 25 (near Xcel Center)
Date: 2008-09-01, 6:51PM CDT
Hey guys- I’m just getting in town for the convention, looking for fellow convention attendees to fool around and have a good time. No Log Cabin here, nobody knows, so must be discreet. I’m 5′8, 165 lbs, professional guy, looking for similar. We can grab a beer and talk about why Obama sucks and then get it on.

This one would be funny, if it weren’t so obvious that the poster is possibly a God.

Seeking Pig Bottom Republican for a Good Pounding - 33 (St. Paul)

Date: 2008-08-29, 9:25AM CDT

Welcome to the Twin Cities, GOP!
After 8 years of taking a hard pounding from you guys in Washington, it’s time to return the favor!
I’m looking for a Republican delegate to take for a ride like Bush & Co. have been doing to our country since they took office.
Here’s the scene: I come to your hotel room, you’re wearing nothing but your convention credentials. You blow me while I berate you for ruining our economy. Then I flip you over and slam your ass like Hurricane Gustav is gonna do to your news coverage. Then I pull out and cum on your face and you learn the real meaning of Trickle Down Theory.
ME: 6′4″, 220, Blonde & Blue, hairy, with a 9″ uncut viking cock YOU: Pig Bottom Republican

And last: in lieu of Laura Bush’s party, busting a nut will do.

Closeted RNC supporter seeking a masc smooth man this afternoon - 48 (downtown mpls hotel)
Date: 2008-09-01, 12:05PM CDT
am conservative, bi and in the closet.. but love a hard younger body for making out and oral action. my stats 5-9″ - in shape, masc , 6″ cut was planning on the IMS party for Laura Bush today but it cancelled. so would like to bust a nut and have some other fun. can trade pix thinking of mid afternoon get together


So after reading his/her email findings, I knew I could not resist any longer. I just had to jump in and find a gem to add to the mix and I did not have to go too far.

I added a twist, I searched for words Obama and RNC. As I many rose to the top of the list, this posting calling for some good old fashioned bi-partisan hard work takes the cake.

Right Wing Asshole Seeks Liberal Euphorian for Obama-gasms - m4w - 47 (Corner Office)

Reply to: pers-773410479@craigslist.org
Date: 2008-07-28, 1:47PM CDT


Please, don’t tell. Otherwise I’m going to be drummed out of the Grand Old Party for sleeping with the enemy. Our goon squad is coming to Saint Paul in a couple of weeks and I live in fear of being found out. But I can’t help it. I’m attracted to the flirty, sexually liberated, save the trees and hug the earth euphorian type of woman.

Can you blame me? Republican women aren’t the stuff of fantasy. Who wants to doink some dog-faced, humorless and stuffy caviar princess?

Give me a succulent free-range, cage-free breast each and every time.

Republican men age sophisticatedly while our women wilt like rotten fruit on the vine.


You know who you are, and I’ve seen you around town. You’re waving from the bridge tops or marching to save an insignificant animal from extinction. You ride a bike, you know your coffee and sometimes forget your bra. Being “shaved” could mean your pits or legs and your cosmetics are animal-test free.

And dare I dream? Ideally you work as a teacher or are a social worker and you read books of which I’ve never heard.

I’m your polar opposite. Global warming, to me, is nothing but a sweaty female breast and Guantanamo is really a military run Club Med. I guzzle gas, think alternative energy is a crock and am wonderfully hypocritical when I sit in church. Rush is right and Olbermann is wrong and I wish Hillary had never been born.

But I do admire parts of Franken. That man can write mean porn.


If opposites attract, then you’re in for one helluva fuckin’ ride.
So instead of muttering “Screw Republicans” or “Fuck Bush” how about putting some action behind those words? Take one for the team and make me curse my political world. Plus, I’m married so your wickedness can be a delicious “Two-fer”.

Power corrupts. Turn the tables. Corrupt me with your power, instead.


“This is our time.”

I can hardly wait to see what Wednesday will bring!

Piece. Word.

Thank You, John McCain (for showing us the way)


John McCain asks us to please be civil and not make children the focus his campaign in the bright morning-after light of Bristol Palin's birth announcement.

In fact, he was so adamant about this point that in every photo where Bristol is not holding the VP's baby, she was pushed to the side and back in the photos. (I honestly thought she was shy...boy, was I wrong.)

Rather than enter into the same RNC arena as McCain (like they would give me entry anyway with my big pink American hat), I offer up this Phoenix Times News quote about his GOP fundraiser comments about another elected official's child.

"Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly? Because Janet Reno is her father." John McCain SOURCE

Wow, it is rare that you get a chance to smack down an elected officials underage daughter and at the same time make a lesbian parenting joke.

While I agree children are off limits, this Labor Day announcement highlights the real need to be honest about sex with our children and the use of birth control. (It is not just for Pigeons.)

And while I am on a roll, people please, stop painting the trees greener than they really are in St. Paul.

Movement Turns 9, But Paxahau is 10



Ok, so the photo may not perfectly line up with all of my wants and needs.

But, butt honesty mixed with shiny, sparkling promotion is a good thing when one is sending props out to my buddies at Paxahau.

So while Movement: Detroit Electronic Music Festival turns 9, Paxahau is celebrating year ten with a light year's leap in the production of the event.

Look for great things to come from these guys in the future.


Thank you Jason, Sam, Mike and Jason C. for putting on amazing opening night show and the beautiful vision of how an outdoor festival can and should be.

Moby rocked the bowl and in a twist of fate, post-show we shared an elevator ride back up to our rooms. (I congratulated him on his heart pounding set but I had to decline his offer to read me the Where The Wild Things Are bedtime story.)

I will post more pics, but for now, get to Hart Plaza in Detroit to experience the best DEMF ever.

Weather Report and the Obama Factor


If you are planning on attending the Obama for America rally at the Van Andel Arena, one would be wise to check the weather report for the day.

This advice is not just because a rain coat is surely going to be required for waiting with the 12,ooo and more people who will take to the streets this afternoon.

Instead, check the weather.com site for the metaphor magically appearing this AM in the forecast.

Barack Obama speaks at 7 PM tonight in downtown Grand Rapids. Metaphors and their alignment with forecasts have never been sunnier.

Why Is This Man Smiling This AM?






















Because the CNA Hello, Neighbor social networking event
raised nearly 4k at the
Art Battle for Community: The Rematch.



Take That, Golden Gloves Champions!
Artists Rule!


Thanks for the event photos, David! ( www.humanfiles.com ) and his brother, Michael. (also a photographer)

Thank you to Brett and his great staff at Sazerac Lounge on Plainfield. (They make their food the old fashioned way.... from scratch. Ask a ninety year old woman about the healthy benefits of this act of preservation.)

Thank you CNA board, staff and volunteers.

Most of all
Thank you to our great 12 artists - without them this event could not have happened.

Shelly Klein, Michael Pfleghaar, Kelly Allen, Nathan Goddard, Michael Ingold, Lisa Price, Aneka Vanderhill, Gloria Oostema, Abbey Bradley, Cat Campbell, Tom Post and Beth Fowler.

Thank you for supporting and funding local art projects within our community and making the world a bit nicer.

(oh, and thanks to the Friend of Leonardo DiCaprio who signed the environmental DVD The 11th Hour)

United Lesbians of Baghdad

Every once in a while I get bit by the YouTube bug and on those days I find gems that are too precious to horde.

So today I polish off an oldie but a goodie c-span video about what could spell the end of our involvement in Iraq.

It is funny to think a band of women loving women could bring us to our knees.
(And some men may just enjoy watching this happen.)

Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. (The 3 R's On Target)

In the April 14th issue of Newsweek, they devoted the magazine to the sujet du jour, Green.

In my bedroom, aI plow through the stacks of magazines that will eventually become something else, I was encouraged that the cover of this Newsweek would become a great stylish bag.

Target in looking to reduce their impact on the planet, is asking us to send back our red and white plastic bags. In exchange for this gesture, they will send us a fashionable reusable bag....Free.

So in the images to follow, I have provided a photo illustration of how it all went down this AM...and all from the comfort of my bed.

Recycling in the bedroom, who would have thought it was possible.*

If one missed this issue, I am pretty sure one will find it in a doctor's lobby or by dumpster diving in your better read neighbors curbside recycling bin. (However, on the latter activity, remember we live in a YouTube world now.)




(*While this blogger believes there are many items we can make greener in our bedrooms, he does not encourage the recycling of certain items. Please do not rinse "préservatifs" and hang on your clothes line, these are still a one shot and then discard item.)
