A bee in the sticky stillness of the morning
Circling my coffee and my head
Bright colors draw him to paper flowers and the false hope of something sweet
Doesn’t he know that real life exists beyond the screen that encases this little world?
Here it’s just paper and imagination and coffee that’s grown cold.

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.
