Last Comic Standing

S with John Reep -- the winner of "Last Comic Standing"
G with Gerry Dee -- Runner-up on Last Comic Standing
(Our favorite of the bunch)


G & I went to see 5 of the top comedians from the NBC show "Last Comic Standing" on Saturday night. We drove an hour to the casino. We'd never been there before -- no surprises there. It was literally out in the middle of NO WHERE!! We had a great booth seat in this small theater. It was nice that it was small because we could see the Comics really well. Plus, they had several large screens all over to help. We really liked Gerry Dee, then Matt, then John. One of the others wasn't so great due to all of the F-bombs he tossed out there. I guess you could say we were quite used to the NBC censors. So, that was a huge disappointment there. Amy was pretty funny too, but I really like it when Comics tell a story rather than several small abrupt jokes. Just my personal preference. We got to meet them after the show. I was kicking myself for leaving my camera in the car! We used our cell phones to get a few pictures. Not the best, but good enough. (Oh, and I don't know if it would have made a difference -- we're pretty sure that T got to the camera and it's a gonner. Uggh!) Anyway, other than smelling like an ash tray after the show, we enjoyed our date and had several, several good laughs. Yes, our babysitter made a truckload, but it was worth it.

Sounds like you had a great time. It's always nice to do something out of the ordinary for your birthday. I hope your camera isn't broken. Well, at least Christmas is right around the corner and you can justify getting a new one.

I was just thinking about your twirling talents and thought you'd like to see this. I wish I could do this too!
