(elaboration here, if you need it)
Here’s a piece I wrote recently for American Hockey Fan, online home of comedy writer and werewolf expert Ritch Duncan. I’m technically a regular contributor to the site, if by “regular” you mean “infrequent.”
At any rate, I recently had the pleasure of attending a hockey game that took three days to finish, so making jokes about seemed like the thing to do. Enjoy!!
Is there anything in this world better than local news?
I am busy making my selections for the People’s Choice Awards. But “Favorite Comedy Movie” has me stumped this year. If only one of these films somehow stood out from the other four…
I give up. This is tougher than Carrie Underwood vs. Rascal Flatts!
Here’s a recent report I filed for the Feldman Show about those pesky credit card companies.
I am currently reading an extremely heavy book. Not heavy in the sense of the material being profound or ponderous…heavy in the sense that I can barely lift the thing. It’s like three Harry Potters duct-taped to a car battery.
Since it’s far too heavy to schlep on the train, I mostly read this book in bed. And since I mostly read this book in bed, I tend to get about three pages in each night before I fall asleep and drop it on my face. This has resulted in a series of highly uncomfortable skull fractures, as well as a generous assortment of gouged eyes, broken noses, split lips and all manner of other miscellaneous facial indentations.
I guess what I’m saying is if you see me walking around, and I look like hell…blame literature. I never have this problem with Maxim.
