expensive people produced question test willing
I think the big question is how much more expensive it will make the wine. The real test of it is once it's produced and on the shelf, what are people willing to pay?
talking long people
I don't have a specific plan except for as long as people want to listen to me talk, I'm going to keep talking. I can't imagine a life without doing standup.
humor people alcohol
People are saying that I'm an alcoholic, and that's not true, because I only drink when I work, and I'm a workaholic.
bridges two people
There are two kinds of comics; there are the ones who build bridges, and then there are the people who walk across the bridges as though they built them. The bridge builders are few and far between.
strong odds people
The biggest piece of advice that I give young comedians is: If it's your goal to get where I'm at, go do something else. Because you'll never get here. Never. The odds are so bad. Because not only do you have to be a really, really strong comedian but you also have to be lucky. And most people don't get that combination.
ideas laughing people
I was so in love with the idea of making people laugh for a living that I didn't care what I had to do to get there. Or how much money I was going to make when I did get there.
absolutely funniest loved
Lisa is one of the funniest comedians. She absolutely killed me. I loved it.
basic bread cards definitely drive fewer gallon half loaf meet milk town
Like a lot of Iowans, I have to drive just to meet basic needs, ... Am I going to drive into town for a loaf of bread and a half gallon of milk or am going into town to play cards with friends? Probably not. So it's definitely fewer trips.
driving food ready water
It's not like driving the freeways of California. It's dog-eat-dog out here. You have to have water and food and be ready for most anything to happen.
believe gave gives lemons life vodka
I believe if life gives you lemons make lemonadethen find someone that life gave vodka to and have a party.
enjoyed forget hope stuff tonight
I hope you've enjoyed some of the new stuff tonight as well as some of the old stuff, ... I'll never forget this night as long as I live.
smoking saving months
I quit smoking cigarettes and with the $70 a month I am saving not smoking cigarettes I'm smoking $700 worth of cigars.
beer hands natural
From the very beginning I started with a beer and a cigarette because I couldn't figure out what to do with my hands. So usually I have a beer and cigarette and that's what I was doing with my hands because that looked natural and felt good.
dark light television
I only like the live audience. I don't even like to do standup where it's being filmed. Because it affects the way the audience responds to what you say, because it makes them uncomfortable. You have to perform in a light room, and I prefer a dark room. But I love to perform, and I don't really see myself doing any television at all.
