I am sometimes......OK, y'all might as well be wary. I am sometimes the living epitome of contrary.<BR/><BR/>Sex and comedy, and you brought them together so nicely...<BR/>and then you just had t'say, "if a tree falls in the forrest...."<BR/>Well, y'lost me there, because this here tree's been "fallin'" fer quite a few years all by himself.<BR/>Hey! I didn't want to "lose it" as it were, because it's a fine writing instrument when there's fresh snow about.<BR/>(it's way easier when y'live in the country)<BR/><BR/>OK, so, how about I stay above the table, eh?<BR/>(good idea)<BR/><BR/>(I'm sorry....I keep thinking about that tree.<BR/>Y'know, if it wasn't for mrs. hand, I'de be the loneliest guy in town.)<BR/><BR/>I like that you take the time to help us all with your insightfulness. I realize I must come off (no...not another tree joke) as a hack. Being new to the genre of comedy is interesting. Having stood at the front door of the church for that many Sundays telling some of the very worse of clean jokes has made me an interestingly curious fellow.<BR/>Can I sustain the laughter?<BR/><BR/>Good question.<BR/>Sometimes when I'm talking one-on-one, I can sort'a feel the other person's laughter, and I tickle it as carefully as I can, but, if I get them on a roll, I always go for the "make'm pee their pants!"<BR/><BR/>If I had more experience ON STAGE I suspect I would find that it's not that unsimilar with a group. You SEE your audience, and you can hear them as they laugh, your senses can differentiate their feeling about a subject in the way they laugh (a cruel laugh is the worse kind of laugh, and when I hear it, I shut up and won't say nothin' funny at them again. A giggler is fun t'play with...so on and so on)<BR/>So, basically, the hardest part of comedy might be shutting up long enough t'hear what the audience REALLY likes, and playing to that.<BR/><BR/>'Course, that means work. More than one set, as it were. And, just in case yer having too much fun, maybe a change of britches, too.bonemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01615987464724590203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7850527497873923412.post-54309944133650745832007-08-24T19:13:00.000-04:002007-08-24T19:13:00.000-04:00hahah what she (edyta) said :phahah what she (edyta) said :pCrashdummiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02804365044559167907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7850527497873923412.post-1911673623305809512007-08-23T13:27:00.000-04:002007-08-23T13:27:00.000-04:00Hi Lucy,this is what we initialy need: a good laug...Hi Lucy,<BR/>this is what we initialy need: a good laugh... & good sex?Edytahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02464143620834984822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7850527497873923412.post-258907740977788212007-08-23T11:14:00.000-04:002007-08-23T11:14:00.000-04:00Hiya Lucy!Rotten how long it takes to become an ov...Hiya Lucy!<BR/><BR/>Rotten how long it takes to become an overnight success, ain't it?<BR/><BR/>Your blog looks jolly impressive and impressively whizzy!<BR/> <BR/>I look forward to perusing the content further as it demands!<BR/><BR/>An intellectual of comedy? - I like it.<BR/><BR/>The comedian of poetry,<BR/><BR/>Laura K xThe Poet Laura-eatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07779308486569849157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7850527497873923412.post-23549272316340963552007-08-23T10:37:00.000-04:002007-08-23T10:37:00.000-04:00I can definately relate to what you said about my ...I can definately relate to what you said about my skydiving has some things in common with your standup.
