The frog with the wig!

Hey folks, I kicked booty at the recent Comcast SpotLight on Comedy sponsored by Sierra Mist in Boston, MA. As soon as i get a copy of the telecast I'll post it up on Onefunnyguy.com

I have been doing shows in LA and staying busy. If you know anyone interested in being an executive or associate producer on an independent film let me know!

Below is a post that would not fit on the blog profile page. A children's story. Rnjoy! Until we chat it up again...peace jay!

Once upon a time there was a bald frog who lived in the swamp! His name was Gastineu. Gastineu was so self concious he wouldn't even ribiit! He kind of whispered rabbit, which only made the other frogs laugh harder. It was only after a particularily embarrasing afternoon of frog jumping that the frog sought out therapy. The Froggy counselor first got to the issue of Gastineus shyness. What gives with the "rabbit" sound asked the counselor. Well, said Gastineu, many years ago I was a handsome prince who rode the lands in search of my fairy princess. Unfortunetaly, she was in the custody of an evil witch who had her holed up in caverans below the capitol city. I made a brave sojurn into the caverns, and almost made it to the princess to give her the kiss that would free her from her chains. I went head to head with the evil witch only to have a hex placed upon my head. Literallly, my head. She turned me into a bald frog! Now I have to wait for a pretty princess to kiss me. I'm too shy to leave my pad. Well, the counselor said, that is quite a story! But, I think I can help you. He pulled a frog toupee out of his desk and placed it on Gastineus head. The wig made all the difference in the world! He was quite handsome...for a frog! The counselor continued. Go back to your pad, practice your ribbits and your ladies rap. Come back next week and I'll have a surprise for you. Gastineu did as he was told. He came back in a week quite the polished communicator. In the counselors office sat a pretty young maiden who looked quite familar. It was his dream princess. The one he tried to free from the clutches of the wicked witch! The counselor re-introduced them. Gastineu, I belive you know Penelope? Yes, Gastineu said with verve and pinash. She is even more lovely than I remember! Penlope, giggled and swooned at this. Uhmm said the counselor, well, Penolope was in counseling over the death of her emancipater, Prince Charming. Prince charming managed to give her a kiss beneath the caverns and then was struck down by the evil witch. Quite a heinous death I might add. She wrapped him in pasta and then doused him with steaming hot tomato sauce! Emeril brand I think. Anyhoo, she is here making great progress, as you have Gastineu, and I thought you two might like to meet. They both excalimed yes, and Penlope picked Gastineu up and kissed him full on his froggy lips. He immediately turned into Brad Pitt and they married right there in the counselors office. Subsequently, he left Penlope for a movie star and she was heartbroken. You may have read about it in the froggyloids. The moral of the story: You can take the Frog out of the swamp, but you can't take the swamp out of the frog, or even marrying a handsome prince can land you in the pitts!
