Making Wishes Come True

On Wednesday, November 10th, Comedy Guru Jim Mendrinos, www.jim-mendrinos.com, Road Dog Mike Siscoe, www.mikesiscoe.com, and moi drove up to Boston to perform at a fundraiser for The Make a Wish Foundation held at the Comedy Connection in Boston's Faneuil Hall. Fanueil Hall you may recall is where John Kerry delivered his fateful concession speech. Looking closely, you can still see tear stains on the floor. I added a few of my own.

Produced by Seth Earley of the Corporate Comedy Group (www.corporatecomedygroup.com) the event pulled in $6,000 for Make a Wish and featured such Boston notables as Don Gavin, Brian Kiley, Tony V and Mike Petit.

And what road trip would be complete without a stop at The Cracker Barrel ( www.crackerbarrel.com ) for a delicious artery clogging meal. What can I say? The chicken and dumplings are worth the risk!

NACA News!

Just heard today that I was chosen for the National NACA (National Association of Campus Activities) Conference for February 2005! Even better, the conference is being held in my favorite city: Minneapolis, Minnesota! Mall of America, here I come!

This follows a very respectable showing in October at the NACA South Conference held in Winston-Salem, NC. I picked up quite a few dates for the Spring. So right after the holidays I'll be dusting off the suitcase!

Getting Catty on VH1

On Monday I taped a segment for an upcoming VH1 show, 40 Most Shocking Hair Moments. You know the format: comics, actors, and culture critics commenting on outrageous celebrity hair styles. It's not deep, but it is fun, face time on camera! Special thanks to the producer Jill for inviting me to do this, and Jim K for recommending me!

This show is scheduled to air in January 2005. Meow!
