I'm directing the Sky show. I'm not going to be in it. I'm just writing and directing it. So that'll satisfy that part of my brain.
There are really funny alternative comics and really funny straight comics who write and perform traditionally.
I've never written jokes. I mean, I'll write things on a piece of paper and riff on them onstage.
And it's one more shitty thing to write about somebody, in between getting really, really, really upset at female Ghostbusters and Gamergate, and the things that really matter.
I'll think of the idea and then I'll write something down, then within that there will be a joke or two which is the original thing which I thought was funny.
Back when the Bible was written, then edited, then rewritten, then rewritten, then re-edited, then translated from dead languages, then re-translated, then edited, then rewritten, then given to kings for them to take their favorite parts, then rewritten, then re-rewritten, then translated again, then given to the pope for him to approve, then rewritten, then edited again, the re-re-re-re-rewritten again...all based on stories that were told orally 30 to 90 years AFTER they happened.. to people who didnt know how to write... so...
We mostly get together and have fun. It's a great place to play music with a small group of nice people.
The second piece of news is something that I would imagine most people have heard about by now. Arrested Development got picked up for a third season.
Originally they wanted me to be Buster but I really like the Tobias part.
At that point, we worked to contain the fire from the outside.
We knew Eric could be an excellent player and he is proving that this year, ... He really has added to the excellent play from the rest of the team this season.
There are a lot of reasons for that. For one, we have good light here.
It's not an issue per say, but I would urge people to help create an atmosphere where they don't see this complete ideological divide.
[If Donald Trump does get elected, I will be] probably Secretary Of Reeducation. Or I don't know. I'll probably end up working in the cafeteria.
